Chapter 499: Chapter 499: Luna Williams Arrives in Emperor Capital

“The Marketing and PR departments should be your target when applying for a job, look for the HR department.”

Hope Williams slightly nodded her head, the color in her beautiful eyes dimmed a bit, more disappointing than expected.

The vast office area showed no signs of work, with many people sitting together chatting.

If the Marketing and PR departments are like this, other departments are likely no better.

Half an hour later, Elizabeth Summer arrived in a panic, “Williams, President Williams?”

“It’s me.” Hope Williams looked at the woman in front of her, who appeared to be under thirty, “Elizabeth Summer?”

“I am President Williams.”

Elizabeth, feeling guilty for being late and under the scrutinizing gaze of Hope Williams, quivered in her voice.

“Is this how you usually work?”

She had thought the new boss might question her about being late.

But when Hope Williams’ indifferent voice came again, Elizabeth blinked hard, “Ah… No, it’s not.”

Hope Williams frowned, no joy or anger visible in her beautiful eyes.

Hope Williams pursed her lips and thought for a moment, “When can I have the recent research project data?”

Elizabeth bit her lip, unsure of what to do, and took a while before responding, “President Williams, the company does not have any ongoing research projects currently, and recent issues with a batch of pharmaceuticals have engaged the PR department in resolution efforts.”

“So the company is in a stagnant state?”

“It is, and in recent years the company has been performing poorly.”

Hope Williams’s gaze grew complex.

Hope Williams spent the morning at the company, roughly understanding the situation and still needed related company documents.

However, she was not very knowledgeable in this area and needed to consult President Lewis on some issues.

In the evening, when Waylon Lewis returned from work, he saw Hope Williams seated on a fur rug, elbows propped on the coffee table, with a laptop and a stack of files next to her.

Hope Williams cradled her face, looking somewhat distressed.

Waylon Lewis walked over, bent down, and his strong arms picked up the petite woman from the floor and placed her on the sofa.

“It’s cold on the ground.”

Hope Williams, lost in thought, hadn’t noticed Waylon Lewis’s return.

“You’re back.”

“Mhm, what are you looking at?”

“Ansen’s recent developments, project history, and personnel lists…”

“How did you feel about your visit to the company today?” Waylon Lewis stroked Hope Williams’s long hair.

Hope Williams stretched, leaning lazily against him, massaging her temples as she spoke, “Not good, I discovered that in recent years, grandma has actually been losing money to keep Ansen afloat…”

Jade Bell knew nothing about managing a company, only focusing on not letting her daughter’s efforts go to waste, continuously infusing money to keep the company running.

Since even the management was slack, the employees were naturally even more so, facing no pressure at work and still earning decent salaries.

Hope Williams shared her concerns with Waylon Lewis after observing the situation today.

“Worse than expected.”

Waylon Lewis picked up the documents in front of him and began browsing through them, noting, “In recent years, no significant research accomplishments, lack of partners and research talents, maintaining status is truly challenging.”

Hope Williams sighed, “Yes.”

Waylon Lewis, “So, do you need help?”

Hope Williams nodded repeatedly, straightened up, and sat on his lap, looking at him earnestly, “I really need it, President Lewis, I don’t understand many business issues.”

Waylon Lewis gently held her waist, a smile in his eyes, “Want me to teach you?”

“Yes, yes, yes.”

Hope Williams’s face was full of hope.

“Kiss me, and I’ll teach you.”

Hope Williams did not hesitate to wrap her arms around Waylon Lewis’s neck, planting a firm kiss on his face.

“Is it okay now?”

Waylon Lewis was momentarily stunned, then chuckled softly and stood up holding Hope Williams.

“Hey? Where are we going?”

“First, dinner, and after dinner I’ll teach you slowly.”

“Oh, okay.” Hope Williams nodded obediently.

Waylon Lewis carried Hope Williams to her chair, then went to call the two little ones downstairs for dinner.

Meanwhile, at the Williams Family’s home in city a.

The doctor checked on Luna Williams’ health condition every day, sighing to Maverick Williams, “While Miss Williams’ current health condition is controlled by medication, this is not a long-term solution. We still need to find a matching bone marrow transplant as soon as possible.”

Luna Williams was on the verge of collapse.

Bone marrow transplant! Bone marrow transplant! Bone marrow transplant!

But so far, no suitable bone marrow has been matched, and Hope Williams had run away, how infuriating.

“Grandpa, what should we do? I… wuwuwu…”

Maverick Williams frowned deeply, standing by, undoubtedly anxious as well.

The matching hospital for Luna Williams’ bone marrow also never slacked off, but the chances were very slim.

“Grandpa, is there really no way for my sister?”

Luna Williams wiped her tears and looked at Maverick Williams.

Maverick Williams hesitated to speak; Hope Williams was in city a, and they still could do nothing about her. Now that she had returned to Emperor Capital, Waylon Lewis, protective as if she was the apple of his eye, made it even less likely.

Finally, he sighed deeply, “Perhaps when she gives birth to the child, she might be willing.”

Giving birth to the child! Hope Williams wasn’t even showing yet, only about two or three months along. That meant she still had to wait six or seven months.

She didn’t want to wait, she didn’t want to wait, in case something happened during this time, she didn’t want to just wait to die.

Grandpa had no way now because Hope Williams was pregnant, but what if something happened to Hope Williams and the child was lost.

Then she would have no reason not to donate her bone marrow.

Yes.

Right.

A dark joy bubbled up in Luna Williams’ heart.

A face with little blood color couldn’t hide a few traces of joy.

She couldn’t just sit and wait to die, she needed to go to Emperor Capital.

“Grandpa, I want to go to Emperor Capital for treatment.”

Maverick Williams frowned, “Luna, why do you want to go to Emperor Capital, isn’t it good in city a?”

“Grandpa, I’ve been treated in the hospital in city a for so long, and my condition hasn’t improved at all. I think the medical standards in Emperor Capital are better than in city a, I also want to change the environment, Grandpa, let’s try our luck, and see if we can find a suitable bone marrow donor in Emperor Capital.”

Hearing Luna Williams say this, Maverick Williams fell silent.

The bone marrow matching efforts at the hospital here in city a had never stopped, and it wasn’t something that just changing hospitals could solve.

But Maverick Williams didn’t want to say that, he didn’t want to extinguish Luna’s hope.

Hearing Luna Williams say this, Maverick Williams agreed.

“But Luna, in Emperor Capital, Grandpa can’t be with you all the time.”

“It’s okay, Grandpa, I can manage by myself.” Luna Williams thought for a moment, then asked, “Grandpa, didn’t you arrange for a girl named Grace Gray to be at the Lewis Family?”

Maverick Williams nodded, “Why bring her up all of a sudden?”

“Where is she now?”

“She has already been driven out.”

“Grandpa, can you help me find her?”

“Why look for her?”

“I think since she has been living in Emperor Capital all this time, she must be very familiar with it. Aren’t you worried that no one will take care of me if you’re not around? Let her take care of me.” Luna Williams looked at Maverick Williams expectantly.
