Chapter 729 Manuel Comes back

Susan paused for a long while and said, "Forget it. I'll go to deal with it."

"Are you sure you can handle it?"

"I'm sure. No more delays."

"All right." Hannah didn't want to force Susan too much. There were some things she should face on her own.

"By the way, are you still at work?"

"Yes." Susan was furious upon hearing the work. She did not know where Manuel had gone. He had disappeared for almost a month. The company's affairs were all left to her fathers. His father insisted that she help him with the work, but she knew nothing. It had been hell on earth for her.

"I almost threw up. I used to loathe Manuel, but now I can't wait for him to come back. If not, my dad will suffer from a nervous breakdown. So will I." Susan complained.

"Now you know how important Manuel is?"

"No. But if he was there, we could be relaxed."

"Aren't you afraid that he will take away your property?"

Susan couldn't say a word.

"If you are afraid, learn more by yourself." Hannah sighed, "No one could be relied on during a lifetime."

"Why do you change the way you talk after the trip to the capital? You seem to be the same age as my father."

Hannah smiled. Perhaps the experience of being weak and helpless in a tragedy as well as the separation between life and death reminded her how important strength was. Physical and mental strength were both significant.

"Were you unhappy in the capital?" Susan asked. Somehow, she found that Hannah had become a little too strange as if she had been disillusioned.

Shouldn't she be at the happiest point of her life right now since her husband was promoted?

Inside her belly, she also had a lovely baby.

Shouldn't she be laughing with happiness?

"No. Because of pregnancy, I became more emotional." Hannah seemed perfunctory.

Susan did not think too much.

After lunch, Susan was called back to the company by her father. When leaving the villa, she was so reluctant. Susan sometimes looked down on herself, for her actions always revealed what she thought. She should have stood by and left the old man alone.

Finally, Susan arrived at Phillips Bank.

The moment she opened the door, she froze in a dashing posture. Unexpectedly, Manuel was there. She thought he was going to disappear for good.

Susan pursed her lips to make herself look calm. Ever since Manuel was drugged and refused her help, they had not talked with each other, not to mention that Manuel had suddenly disappeared for so long. Susan walked slowly to her father's side.

"So rushed to call me back. What's the matter?" she asked.

"It's working time. Shouldn't you stay in the company?" Edward looked angry. He thought Susan was disappointing.

"I visited Hannah. She came back from the capital and felt bad. I went to accompany her." Susan explained and felt it was unpleasant.

When mentioning Hannah, Manuel seemed to glance at her.

But when Susan looked back, Manuel turned his head.

"And..." Edward was just about to ask something about Hannah when he was interrupted by a sudden fury of Susan.

"I only left my post for half a day. Manuel has left for a month. Why do you say that about me? Why don't you complain to him?"

"He had worked on serious issues." Edward retorted, "But you never focus on the work."

"You force me to work when you know I'm not concentrating on working."

"Susan Phillips, you want me to donate my heritage to charity, don't you?" Edward was irritated by Susan.

Susan pursed her lips. She didn't say anything when seeing that her father got cross. She didn't hold grudges against the elder.

"Manuel is back. He will take charge of many things." Edward sighed, "You have some work to transfer to him."

"Did you hear it?" Edward was serious.

"Got it."

Susan thought her father had a peppery temper recently. Yelling at her was a regular thing. She wouldn't stand his bad temper if not for his kindness to her.

"Manuel, the work I handed over to you might bother you." Edward said, "I don't know why I had a higher blood pressure recently, and I failed to get it down no matter what I did. The doctor suggested that I should rest more."

"You are all politeness," Manuel said.

"Susan, you should follow Manuel and keep learning." Edward did not forget to remind her.

"Got it." Susan was impatient, "Even if you are in poor health, you still keep educating me. Aren't you afraid that you'll have brain congestion or something?"

"Susan!"

"All right, I'll stop."

Susan felt disquieted, not knowing when she was suppressed by her father.

Susan and Manuel leave his office. Susan walked ahead and they walked to an elevator at the same time.

Susan paused and asked, "When should I hand over my work to you?"

"No need," Manuel uttered.

Susan frowned.

"I know what you're doing. You don't have to transfer it alone." Said he.

Gritting her teeth, Susan tried to suppress her anger and she pressed the button.

They went out one after the other. Neither of the two said another word. Susan returned to the office.

When Henry knocked on the door and entered, Susan had just quelled the rage in her heart.

"I heard that Manuel came back?" Henry asked in a light tone.

"Yes. I just saw him in my father's office."

"Where has he been all this time?"

"I don't know. I didn't ask," Susan said indifferently, "I don't care anyway."

"That's true." Henry smiled, "By the way, why did your father ask you to go to his office?"

"What else can I do? I just need to hand over the things to Manuel. He was not here before. Everything has been left to my dad. Now that Manuel is back, the old man will naturally be free."
