Love After One-night Stand with CEO novel Chapter 177

Mrs. Lewis came in strong, but suddenly, she didn't know what to say.

But a few seconds later, she came to her senses. How could Rosa overpower her?

"I know. You left with your lover!"

Hearing this, Rosa was not angry.

She slowly stretched out a finger and shook it in front of Mrs. Lewis. She said with a smile, "I didn't know lying comes with age. You are not young anymore, are you? Are you sure it's okay for you to twist facts?"

Mrs. Lewis's face darkened. "Rosa, don't you dare go too far!"

"Why is this going too far?" Rosa was confused. She hadn't said anything yet!

Mrs. Lewis looked at her and asked, "You've been gone for five years, so why did you come back? For what purpose?"

Rosa did not say anything. She pressed the speaker button. Soon, Harmony's voice came from the other side. "What's the matter, Director Reborn?"

"Make me a cup of coffee!"

"Okay!"

Then, Rosa hung up the phone and sat down on the sofa. She was in a leisurely and relaxed state.

Mrs. Lewis couldn't stand it any longer. She was quick-tempered and came straight to the point.

"Rosa, are you here to steal my grandsons? Do you think you can?" She looked at Rosa sharply.

Rosa glanced at Mrs. Lewis, neither angry nor annoyed. She smirked, "Hmm? Better you do..."

Mrs. Lewis was stunned for a moment before she realized what Rosa meant.

The next second, Mrs. Lewis got up and slapped the table. She scolded, "I'll give you one chance. Leave to England in three days, or..."

"Or? How are you going to threaten me this time?" Rosa interrupted Mrs. Lewis. She remained calm. "You can't use my brother to threaten me anymore. I only have myself, leaving you with nothing to hold against me. What, do you want to kill me?"

Mrs. Lewis looked at Rosa's indifferent expression and felt a little guilty.

"I didn't expect you to find out of my return so quickly. You must have many spies. Logically speaking, you can get rid of me any time you want with your status. Why did you come here in person?"

Mrs. Lewis frowned and had a bad feeling when Rosa stared at her.

"Let me guess. You heard about your son pestering me. Is Henry stopping you from doing something? Like seven months before I was pregnant?" In an instant, Rosa's tone turned cold.

Having her thoughts exposed, Mrs. Lewis was embarrassed.

It was true that Mrs. Lewis heard the news of Rosa's return to the country.

Her son stuck to Rosa immediately without any intention of killing Rosa like five years ago.

"Ha," Mrs. Lewis snorted, "Do you think that you are important to my son? Do you think that he won't find out anything about your departure? I am his mother. What can he do to me?"

Rosa didn't say anything as she looked at Mrs. Lewis.

Then, she curled her lips and said, "I never expect him to do anything."

Mrs. Lewis frowned and did not quite understand what Rosa meant.

"If there's something I've learned during my time abroad, it would be giving back. Since you gave me three days, I would give you three days too!"

As Rosa said this, she grimaced, and a cold glint flashed across her eyes. "If you kill me within three days, so be it. If you don't kill me, I will come to you," she paused, "And get back what belongs to me!"

Mrs. Lewis sneered, "What belongs to you? What do you have left here?"

"Nothing? Haha." Rosa sneered and said, "Mom, you've aged. Is that why you have a bad memory? Have you forgotten my brother's life and my two sons that you took from me?"

Mrs. Lewis didn't know what to say when she saw Rosa's fierce gaze and imposing manner.

Just then, someone knocked on the door.

"Come in!" Rosa returned to normal and said indifferently.

Harmony came over with a cup of coffee and handed it to her. "Director, your coffee!"

As she spoke, she glanced at Mrs. Lewis and walked out.

Mrs. Lewis stood up, feeling a little uncomfortable. "Don't even think about stealing my grandsons. Also, I'm not your mother-in-law. Don't call me that!"

Rosa took a sip of coffee and said, "In fact, I don't want to be your granddaughter-in-law. But unfortunately, you are by the law."

Mrs. Lewis was stunned and said, "He hasn't divorced you yet?"

She thought that what had happened five years ago was enough to force Henry to divorce Rosa.

But they hadn't gone through the divorce procedure?

For a moment, she looked at Rosa in astonishment. She realized it might be possible that Rosa would do that.

No! She had to ask Henry!

The next second, she stopped talking to Rosa and went out.

After she left, the smile on Rosa's face gradually faded.

At this moment, Harmony walked in and said, "Director, is that your mother-in-law?"

Rosa smiled bitterly and said, "Yes, she still is by the law."

"I think she's not simple. Before she came into your office, she went to Grace's. It seems that Grace has been flattering her in recent years!"

Rosa glanced at the blinds. Harmony immediately understood and raised the blinds.

Sure enough, Grace was standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, staring at them gloatingly.

"Damn it! She's so mean! Doesn't Mrs. Lewis look down on people with poor social status? Why was she friendly with Grace?"

"It's not the poor she looks down on but people with no abilities. She doesn't like Geoffrey. And it was good news to her that Grace ruined Asher's marriage. Because of this, her daughter could be with someone better. Besides, Grace was the one who gave her her grandsons five years ago! That phone call must have left a good impression on her!"

"Oh my god, why are these women so evil?"

Rosa curled her lips and said, "It seems that my return caught them off guard and forced them to take action so quickly. Interesting. It means they're panicking."

"I think they panicked because of Mr. Lewis!"

Rosa didn't say anything. Indeed, it was because of Henry.

If Henry had treated her like a stranger, they wouldn't have come looking for her.

"Director, if the three worked together, and Paige's tough character, are you sure you don't need Mr. Lewis's help?" Harmony frowned.

In fact, Harmony was Rosa's assistant and friend.

"I don't want him to get involved. I can bear this kind of pain alone!"

Harmony's lips hovered, and she didn't know what to say.

One was his biological mother, and the other was a woman he liked. It was like asking who he would save if both of them were drowning.

......

On the other side.

At Silver Beach Villa.

"M-Mr. Lewis, there was no surveillance footage of Mrs. Lewis's delivery five years ago..." the real estate manager said, trembling with fear.

"Mr. Salas, I heard that you just got promoted five years ago after my wife gave birth, weren't you? How is it being the manager? Is the pay fine?"

Mr. Salas broke out in a cold sweat. He was too shocked to understand what Henry meant.

"By the way, I heard that your father was hospitalized because of a brain disorder. You need a lot of money for the hospitalization fee, don't you?"

He spoke so lightly, telling Mr. Salas that he could fire him and leave him with nothing immediately.

Mr. Salas was not a fool. After hearing this, he hurriedly explained, "Mr. Lewis, don't have to go to such lengths. I'm a hard worker, and my family depends on me."

Henry did not say anything. He kept tapping on the table with his index finger.

"Mr. Lewis, something happened to the surveillance cameras that day. I am not lying..." Mr. Salas continued, "I really am not! It's true. I swear!"

Henry took in all his expressions. He maintained his smile. However, a trace of indifference and contempt flashed across his eyes.

The next second, he pressed a button on his phone and said a name that shook Mr. Salas.

It was the boss of the real estate, Kyson Conway!

Seeing this, Mr Salas fell to his knees and begged, "Mr. Lewis, please don't do this. My job is important to me."

Henry remained unmoved. His long and narrow eyes were cold, and his voice was calm. He said lightly, "What does it have to do with me?"

Then, he made a call.

Mr. Salas immediately went forward to hang up the call. He hastened to explain, "There is a backup to the footage! But there is only the first half of it. When your mother came to pick up Mrs. Lewis, she came to the property management office to turn off the surveillance cameras..."

......

"What did you say?" Grace's hand holding the phone was trembling.

"I'm sorry. I didn't do it on purpose, but Mr. Lewis seemed to have found something wrong and wanted to fire me. So, I gave him the copy..." Mr. Salas cried.

"You good-for-nothing, are you trying to drag me down!" Grace flew into a rage.

"I'm sorry..." Mr. Salas did not know what to say except to cry.

Grace asked nervously, "Did he watch the footage?"

"The backup is blurry. He left and said he wanted to recover the original."

Grace hung up the phone with a bang.

Harry...

Was he going to recover the original footage?

That was to say, he hadn't seen the footage yet?

Grace forced herself to calm down.

The next second, she dialled a number that was engraved in her heart. "Hey, Owen, Ask someone to run into Henry Lewis with a car! Do it all costs. You must make sure something happens to him! Money isn't the problem!"

"Henry Lewis? Damn it. He's not just anyone!"

"Money is not a problem. You can ask for millions as long as you kill him! The money will be yours!"

Owen frowned and said, "This deal is risky. It will be great if it succeeds, but if it doesn't..."

"Owen, risks are what it takes to earn money! If you won the bet, millions would be yours, and no one would know where you would be after this!" Grace said quickly.

Owen smiled and said, "You're right. I was born to take risks, so why hesitate now? Alright. Wait for good news from me!"

"Okay. Owen, you must succeed!"

After a while, she sat down nervously with her phone in her hand.

Something would happen to Henry!

Henry must die!

Otherwise, she would be the one getting into trouble.
