Chapter 1241 - Chapter 1241 Chapter 1241 Are People from the Heninger Family

Chapter 1241: Chapter 1241: Are People from the Heninger Family Really That Terrifying? Chapter 1241: Chapter 1241: Are People from the Heninger Family Really That Terrifying? Assistant Heninger looked at the steward next to him, who gave him a signal, and then slowly spoke: “Mr. Hughes, since our Mr. Heninger came here for that designer, can we meet her first?”

Since Cory Hughes had already planned to introduce Jonas Hughes to the Heninger Family, he was naturally excited to hear Assistant Heninger’s request.

He quickly turned around and said amiably, “Jonas, come out, Steward Heninger and Assistant Heninger both want to see you.”

Upon hearing his father’s voice, Jonas straightened his clothes and proudly walked out. Starting today, he would be a guest of honor at the Heninger Family and would no longer be ridiculed for his illegitimate status.

Over the years, he had faced countless doubts, and even some of the higher-ups in the Hughes Group did not agree with his heir status. They did not allow him to become the next family head because he was an illegitimate child, which meant that he was always inferior to Frederick Russell and Nina Hughes and had no right to that position.

Now that the Heninger Family had personally come to collaborate, he was that highly acclaimed designer. In the future, he would lead the Hughes family in becoming the dominant force in Libanan and an existence that everyone looked up to. At that time, there would be no one who would look down on him and think that he was unworthy of being the family head.

Jonas had a complacent smile on his face as he walked to Cory Hughes’s side. Father and son both were smiling. Cory Hughes quickly introduced him, “Assistant Heninger, this is Jonas Hughes, the porcelain relief designer, and also my son.”

Jonas nodded with a smile, completely unaware of the expressions on the two men, “Steward Heninger, Assistant Heninger, hello, I am the designer, Jonas Hughes.”

He approached them a few steps, wanting to shake hands with Steward Heninger. He was the heir of the Hughes family and the designer of porcelain relief. Even though Steward Heninger had great power, he was still just a steward. It was natural for them to shake hands, and Jonas believed that Steward Heninger would not refuse.

But his hand remained suspended in mid-air, not receiving any response from Steward Heninger even after a few seconds had passed.

Jonas’s heartbeat skipped a beat, and his face turned utterly embarrassed. Everyone present held their breath and watched the awkward scene unfold.

After a moment, Cory Hughes awkwardly laughed, “Steward Heninger, please don’t take offense. Jonas doesn’t know the rules.”

Jonas retracted his hand in embarrassment, his smile instantly disappearing. The cold gaze of Steward Heninger at his side fell on Jonas and then swept over Cory Hughes too.

In that instant, it felt like a massive weight was crushing Cory Hughes’s spine, forcing him to bow and stand humbly in front of Steward Heninger.

Are people from the Heninger family really so terrifying? It was said that besides regular business dealings on Black Island, they had also established an assassin organization. The chill emanating from Steward Heninger’s body now seemed to be tinged with blood, making Cory Hughes shake with fear.

But he couldn’t understand why Steward Heninger was looking at him like that? Had he said something wrong?

Just as Cory was puzzled about Steward Heninger’s glare, the steward suddenly sneered and said his first words: “Mr. Hughes, is this person in front of us the porcelain relief designer you mentioned?”

As soon as he spoke, the room became quiet. His powerful aura made it difficult for everyone present to breathe. He was just a steward, but he had such a powerful presence that it made people wonder how frightening the Heninger Family must be!

Cory Hughes nodded fearfully, “Yes, Steward Heninger, this is the designer of the porcelain relief…”

“Nonsense! The porcelain relief designer is clearly a woman! How could it be him? You dare to deceive the Heninger family! Do you think we’re idiots?”

Steward Heninger’s voice suddenly became harsh, causing everyone present to shudder at his reprimand.

The room was silent, with even breathing sounds ceasing. Zora Hughes’s heart was violently pounding, and her lips turned pale and trembled uncontrollably.

Jonas’ face turned pale in fear, and the veins on his forehead twitched ominously.

Everyone held their breath while the reporters exchanged glances. Steward Heninger said that the real designer was a woman, so Jonas wasn’t the real designer. Did that mean the Hughes family was lying?

Once Steward Heninger reminded them, they couldn’t help but recall Miss Evans’s words. Her mother, Nina Hughes, had been dead for many years–could she be the designer mentioned by the Heninger Family?

As the crowd speculated, their doubt grew, making Jonas seem more and more disagreeable.
