Chapter 217 Willow swallowed hard. Wasn't Mr. Hughes single? Why would he have a mother- in-law?

Was he secretly married?

She couldn't understand the lives of the rich.

A secretary's job included shielding the CEO from troublesome matters.

"I've never heard Mr. Hughes mention that he has a mother-in-law. Is she mistaken? Please have her wait for a moment. I'll come over now."

It would be a dereliction of duty if she easily let some liar through and allowed them to disturb Mr. Hughes.

If that person was really Mr. Hughes' mother-in-law, she would have offended them by rejecting their visitation, which was also a dereliction of duty.

Hence, she had to make sure before making a decision.

"Alright," the receptionist replied. After hanging up the phone, she maintained her smile and said politely to the middle-aged woman, "I'm sorry, our secretary says she's not aware that Mr. Hughes has a mother-in-law. Please wait for a moment. She coming down now."

Lara became anxious. She had always been a loud character with a booming voice. She tried to prove herself by saying, "Your Mr. Hughes built a villa for my family and sent my daughter home. Doesn't this prove that they're dating? I'm really the future mother-in-law of Mr. Hughes. Let me in now. I want to see him and talk some sense into him."

The doors of the CEO's exclusive elevator coincidentally opened to reveal Jasper's striking figure. He exuded the air of nobility as he donned a black tailored suit paired with a dark purple necktie.
