Chapter 320: Chapter 320: No Smoke Without Fire

To go out, Hope Williams naturally couldn’t leave Luke and Willow behind, taking the two with them to take a family portrait with all four people would be nice as well.

After getting everything ready, Waylon Lewis took Hope Williams with Luke and Willow to set off, first to choose a wedding dress.

Waylon Lewis drove himself, and as soon as the car reached the villa’s gate, Christopher Lewis’s assistant Colton Reed hurriedly got out of his car and came up to greet them.

"Young Master."

The car window rolled down a bit, and Waylon Lewis glanced at him indifferently, "Is there something?"

Assistant Reed, "Young Master, Young Madam, the master has requested your presence."

Waylon Lewis’s cold gaze narrowed slightly, "No time."

"But Young Master, this matter concerns the company and the Young Madam..." Colton Reed’s voice suddenly stopped, as Waylon Lewis’s deep eyes swept towards him, full of warning.

Being able to sit firmly as the chairman’s assistant, Colton Reed was certainly someone who could read the room. The warning in Waylon Lewis’s eyes immediately made him shut his mouth and change his tune, "The master has instructed that you must make a trip back."

The originally calm and indifferent expression on Hope Williams’s face changed slightly, and with a slight frown, she moved her gaze towards Waylon Lewis, pondered for two seconds, and then spoke up, "We should still go have a look. What if it’s something important?"

Waylon Lewis’s hands, distinct in their knuckles, tightened slightly on the steering wheel, yet his face remained expressionless, calm and indifferent, unreadable.

Christopher was in such a hurry probably because the corporate rumors had reached his ears.

"Young Master..."

"Tell him I will handle the matters myself."

Waylon Lewis said no more, directly rolled up the car window, and drove off.

Hope Williams’s delicate brows slightly knitted together, and the doubts in her heart grew heavier, watching them.

Thomas Hughes, deliberately avoiding her, and Assistant Reed, halting and hesitant.

"Did something happen at the company?" Hope Williams looked worriedly at Waylon Lewis.

Waylon Lewis glanced at her sideways, freeing one hand to hold her small hand, "It’s nothing, why do you ask?"

"I feel like your conversations are avoiding me, it wasn’t like this before, so something must have happened, and it’s about me again. You’re afraid that I’ll worry if I find out, so you’re deliberately keeping me from knowing."

As smart as Hope Williams, her intuition was so accurate it scared Waylon Lewis.

Waylon Lewis’s gaze seemingly calmly looked at her, "No, don’t overthink it."

"Really?"

"Mhm." Waylon Lewis looked forward, not at her.

Hope Williams let out a light sigh, "Alright then."

Waylon Lewis’s gaze shifted slightly, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

Currently, at the Lewis Clan, rumors were spreading wider and wider, with all sorts of versions.

Even though everyone feared Waylon Lewis, one can’t fight the masses; with everyone talking, could the president really fire them all?

"It’s said the President’s Wife climbed her way up by scheming and using her child, that Chairman Lewis didn’t see her worth at all, the President’s Wife has already been kicked out of the Lewis Family."

"To me, I wouldn’t regard her either, what era is it now that we’re still playing this game of shotgun weddings, climbing up the social ladder and becoming a phoenix, it’s truly disgusting."

"One can’t judge a book by its cover, the President’s Wife appears so noble and aloof, beautiful with an unmatched temperament, but her mind is just too dirty."

"Yeah, and not just that, I also heard that the President rejected the partnership with the Fuller Clan for this woman. Everyone knows that the project with the Fuller Clan was a big win-win deal. It’s all because this woman had a grudge with Miss Fuller and badmouthed her to the President, stirring up trouble, which led to the President’s refusal to cooperate with the Fuller Clan."

"What grudge?"

"Are you daft? Both women are in love with the President. Of course, it’s all because of the President. Chairman Lewis wanted the President to marry Miss Fuller, and now the President’s Wife is afraid of losing her status, so she’s resorting to underhanded tactics."

"That’s disgusting. The partnership with the Fuller Clan was so important, and it all fell apart because of this woman. She’s so hateful. How could she be so narrow-minded and yet be a good match for the President."

"But there are rumors that Chairman Lewis has already told them to get a divorce."

"Really? Then that’s really gratifying."

"Who knows? I can’t guarantee it, but did you all know? I heard that the banquet for the old Chairman’s birthday was organized by Miss Fuller helping Mrs. Lewis."

"Oh my god, does that mean the divorce is real? For such a major event as the old Chairman’s birthday banquet, he didn’t entrust it to his own granddaughter-in-law but to Miss Fuller instead. Isn’t that a clear signal?"

"Actually, it makes perfect sense. All over Emperor Capital, only the Fuller family has a lineage that matches the Lewis family. Miss Fuller is also the future head of the Fuller Clan and an ideal match for the President."

"It seems that the current President’s Wife has really been dumped."

"You can say that again. But she deserves it. Without a family background, poor character, and such big ambition, she’s not a good fit at all."

"The difference between having a family background and not having one is not just a little."

Meanwhile, at the Lewis Family’s old residence, Christopher Lewis was pacing back and forth in the living room with a grave expression. Seeing only Assistant Reed returning to report and not seeing Waylon Lewis, Christopher’s anger grew.

"Where has he gone?"

"Master went out with the Young Madam, saying he didn’t have time," Assistant Reed immediately replied.

"Not have time? Did he say what for?" Christopher asked, suppressing his anger.

Assistant Reed furrowed his brows in thought, "It seems they said they were going to take wedding photos."

"Wedding photos?" Christopher got even angrier. "Can’t he prioritize? The woman’s issues are spreading like wildfire in the company, and he still has the mind to accompany that woman for wedding photo shoots?"

Christopher was so angry it hurt his chest. Ever since that woman married Waylon Lewis, there has been a never-ending stream of trouble. She’s really a disaster.

Sitting on the side, Vivia Fuller stood up and walked over to Christopher, trying to console him, "Uncle Lewis, please don’t be angry. It is indeed troubling that Miss Williams doesn’t have any family background, and about the previous cooperation..."

"The previous cooperation?" Christopher suddenly remembered and looked at Vivia with a serious tone, "Vivia, not many people knew about the previous cooperation. How did it get out to the company?"

Hearing the suspicion in Christopher’s voice, Vivia became anxious and quickly explained, "Uncle, are you suspecting me? This matter could be big or small, involving the reputation of both the Fuller and Lewis families. I would never divulge it, Uncle Lewis..."

Christopher’s brows twitched, "Alright, I didn’t mean to suspect you, Vivia. I know your character; you wouldn’t do such a thing."

However, Christopher still couldn’t figure out how the matter got out to the company.

Vivia pressed her lips together and continued, "Uncle Lewis, although the cooperation issue cannot be separated from Miss Williams, the other things being said about her in the company... could there be some misunderstanding?"

Christopher had thought the same thing, but there’s no smoke without fire. If she had been born into a prestigious family, such rumors couldn’t possibly have arisen.

Now it’s not only embarrassing Waylon Lewis but the entire Lewis family.

That woman is a real disaster, and yet Waylon Lewis likes her so much.

Observing Christopher’s expression, Vivia tentatively said, "Uncle, how about this—I’ll go to see Brother Waylon and Miss Williams. After all, this matter has spread widely in the company and is having a big impact. I should at least give them a heads-up so they can prepare to deal with it."

"Hmm." Christopher furrowed his brow and finished his cup of tea in one gulp, unable to suppress the anger in his heart.
