EuropeNovelChapter 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 troublesmatters.
"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 cover now." It would be a dereliction of duty if she easily let sliar 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.

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 becanxious. She had always been a loud character with a booming voice.

I'm really the future mother-in-law of Mr. Hughes. Letin now. I want to see him and talk ssense 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.
Lara had been so loud that Jasper happened to hear her say that she was his future mother-in-law, and that she was here to talk ssense into him the instant the elevator doors opened.
He exited the elevator and looked at the front desk.
"Hello, Mr. Hughes." The receptionist immediately straightened up and bowed.
Lara looked back to see a handsand dignified man. She found him familiar. It was the man she had seen back at Nason Village.
After hearing the receptionist address him as 'Mr. Hughes', she was sure that he was Willow's boss.
Lara hurried over to him nervously. "Wait, Mr. Hughes. I want to talk to you." She had always been the straightforward type who said whatever cto mind.
She had chere to demand justice for Willow.
Just then, Willow arrived to resolve the mother-in-law issue.
She just made it to the lobby and saw a middle-aged woman chasing after Mr. Hughes, frantically trying to say something.
That middle-aged woman was her mother, Lara Smith! What was her mother doing here, and why was she looking for their CEO?! Was Lara the self-proclaimed mother-in-law of Mr. Hughes? It was Willow's first day as Mr. Hughes' secretary, and she didn't expect that her mother would be the first trouble she had to resolve for him.
Willow got nervous and hurried over.

But she's a proper young e lady. you're interested in her please marry her. If you intend to just fool around without taking responsibility, please let her go." Lara followed Jasper and said what she intended to say to him.
Willow had returned one morning and cried in her arms, saying that she was told that she wasn't worthy of him.
Lara's heart ached whenever she recalled that scene.
