Chapter 1240: Chapter 1240: Is the Designer Still Alive? Chapter 1240: Chapter 1240: Is the Designer Still Alive? “Miss Evans is really going too far! She even dared to try to steal Mr. Hughes’s design diagrams. Fortunately, Mr. Hughes appeared in time to clear things up, otherwise…”

Zora Hughes pretended to be sad and interrupted the speaker, “Please don’t blame Xaviera. It’s not her fault. She and Aunt Nina get along well. When she heard that Aunt Nina had stolen my father’s design diagrams, it’s understandable that she couldn’t accept it at first. If my father hadn’t mentioned it today, I wouldn’t have known about it.”

That person continued, “Even if she and Nina Hughes are close, she shouldn’t be confusing right and wrong, stealing other people’s things!”

Watching everyone accuse Xaviera Evans and Nina Hughes, Jonas and his daughter’s faces showed smug smiles.

On the other side, Cory Hughes was talking to people from the Heninger family. He was thinking of having Jonas appear as a designer during the official ceremony in front of the Heninger family. If Jonas could win their recognition, his future prospects would be limitless, and the Hughes family would benefit as well.

After a few more exchanges, Assistant Heninger got to the point, “Our Mr. Heninger is very fond of these design diagrams. He wants to personally carve them into reality. Are there any other design diagrams?”

With a smile on his face, Cory Hughes explained, “I apologize, Assistant Heninger, the design diagrams he has are just these few. But rest assured, he is in the hall right now and I will introduce you to him later. I guarantee that he will create even better designs in the future, which will definitely satisfy Mr. Heninger!”

Cory Hughes knew very well that Jonas was incapable of drawing design diagrams, but he had to say it for now. As long as they signed a contract with the Heninger family, everything would be fine. If necessary, he could hire someone to draw the design diagrams at a high price.

However, just as Cory Hughes finished speaking, Steward Heninger’s expression changed, and Assistant Heninger caught on quickly, asking, “Mr. Hughes, you said the designer is inside?”

They looked up and searched among the crowd.

Cory Hughes didn’t expect the Heninger family to attach such importance to these design diagrams, and he was thrilled, “Yes! He’s waiting in the hall right now. I’ll bring him over.”

However, Assistant Heninger suddenly asked with a puzzled look, “Mr. Hughes, do you mean that the designer has been alive the whole time? Mr. Heninger would be very happy to know that!”

His voice was loud enough to reach the first floor of the hall. The crowd was stunned for a while, their expressions somewhat subtle. What did that mean? Jonas was obviously alive!

Cory Hughes’s mouth twitched slightly, but since the person who spoke was from the Heninger family, he naturally didn’t dare to say anything and could only smile helplessly, “Assistant Heninger is joking. Of course, the designer is alive! So he can always draw design diagrams for Mr. Heninger, which is a good thing.”

Assistant Heninger’s face was full of surprise, “Oh! I remember hearing rumors that she had been dead for many years. Mr. Heninger and our family head were saddened when they mentioned this matter. It turns out that it was just a rumor. It’s good that the designer is still alive.”

Zora Hughes’s heart was pounding wildly in the hall. From the moment when Assistant Heninger asked if the designer was still alive, she had a bad feeling in her heart.

Nina Hughes had been dead for many years, so was it possible that the Heninger family knew her?

It doesn’t matter. Even if they knew Nina Hughes, it would not make any difference. Nina had been dead for so many years, and she could not come forward to tell everyone the truth. They could still explain to the Heninger family with the same excuse they used earlier.

Of course, Cory also realized that something was wrong. He knew that the designer mentioned by Assistant Heninger was his own daughter Nina Hughes. However, Nina had died years ago. How could she possibly know the Heninger family? He had heard that Mr. Heninger was only in his twenties. At the time when Nina died, Mr. Heninger was still a young child who couldn’t remember anything. He couldn’t have known Nina.

With this realization, Cory breathed a sigh of relief.

Assistant Heninger asked indifferently, “Mr. Hughes, our Mr. Heninger didn’t plan to come originally, but after hearing that the designer was still alive, he decided to come and see for himself. Mr. Heninger will arrive shortly, so please wait a moment. He will personally complete the cooperation ceremony. You don’t mind, do you?”

Cory didn’t dare to object, of course. The Heninger family had sent a steward to bring glory to the Hughes family, making everyone present jealous. Now Mr. Heninger himself was coming, and even if Cory had to wait or go pick him up himself, he wouldn’t dare to complain.

He hurriedly nodded his agreement, looking smug under everyone’s burning gazes.
