Chapter 242: Chapter 242: Keeping a Man?

Connor Bell woke up in the morning and saw the news about Silicon Express’s smuggling.

He guessed that Julia Land would be busy in the morning, so he waited until eleven o’clock before calling her.

Madame Bell did not have the habit of watching the news in the morning and thus was unaware of the smuggling news related to Silicon Express.

She was in a good mood at the moment, humming a song as she arranged flowers in a vase.

It wasn’t until she heard Connor making a phone call to Julia that she realized something big had happened again.

"What trouble has happened now?"

Madam Bell frowned as she listened to the contents of the phone call.

Connor spoke calmly to Julia, "Julia, about the smuggling at Silicon Express, if there’s anything you need help with, just let me know."

Julia’s expression softened upon hearing her father’s concern, "Mm, thank you, Dad."

Connor continued, "If you can’t make it tomorrow, don’t bother coming back for dinner. The company’s matters are more urgent."

Julia chuckled, "Thank you, Dad. Tomorrow night, I will bring Dale and James Thompson back with me."

Hearing that James would also be coming along, Connor resignedly said, "Alright."

Madame Bell put down the flowers she was holding and walked over to Connor. After he hung up the phone, she asked eagerly, "What happened? What smuggling?"

Connor sighed and briefly recounted the incident.

After listening, Madame Bell’s face changed, "This incident is very serious, isn’t it? Can Julia handle it?"

Connor reassured her, "What we can do is trust that she can handle it."

Madame Bell nodded, but she couldn’t help thinking about Mrs. Liu and wondered whether she had finished calculating her daughter’s fate yet.

As she had this thought, the mobile phone placed on the coffee table vibrated.

Madame Bell walked over to pick up the phone and saw a message from Mrs. Liu.

Mrs. Liu: "Madame Bell, when are you free? Let’s meet."

Madame Bell replied quickly: "I can do today at twelve-thirty."

Mrs. Liu on the other end replied promptly: "Good. Let’s meet at twelve-thirty at the Art Teahouse."

Madame Bell breathed a sigh of relief.

At the appointed time, Madame Bell arrived at the Art Teahouse on time.

The teahouse had an elegant atmosphere and was filled with the fragrance of tea, giving a calming feeling.

Mrs. Liu was already seated at a table in the corner and waved with a smile when she saw Madame Bell come in.

"Madame Bell, please, take a seat," Mrs. Liu said with a smile.

"Thank you," Madame Bell smiled in return.

She called the waiter and ordered a cup of jasmine tea.

Mrs. Liu took out a thin booklet from her bag, "I’ve already calculated it. Your daughter is indeed facing some hardships recently, but she has a strong presence of a benefactor in her fate. As long as she perseveres, she will surely overcome the crisis."

Madame Bell felt somewhat relieved upon hearing this, "Can she really get through this crisis smoothly?"

Mrs. Liu said with a smile, "She has a benefactor to assist her, and she herself is very capable. As long as she maintains a stable mind and handles it properly, this crisis will become an experience that will actually benefit her future development."

Madame Bell gratefully said, "Thank you. Hearing you say this, I feel much more at ease now."

Mrs. Liu smiled, "Madame Bell, although fate is sometimes uncontrollable, as long as we maintain a peaceful heart and do our best, everything will improve."

Looking down at the booklet, Mrs. Liu continued, "This is your daughter’s recent fortune. I see that her past fortune was not very favorable, but after experiencing difficulties, her future will increasingly improve. However, I see that her parents’ palace is not too favorable."

Hearing that the parents’ palace was not good, Madame Bell’s face changed, "How is it unfavourable?"

Mrs. Liu raised her head, her expression slightly serious, "The parents’ palace represents the bond with parents and the health of the parents."

"From the birth chart, it seems that your daughter might become distressed because of her parents during this period, and the health of the parents needs more attention. Especially in terms of physical health, there may be some minor issues."

Madame Bell, with furrowed brows and worriedly, asked, "Is it our health that might be problematic? Will it be serious?"

Mrs. Liu shook her head, offering reassurance, "It may not necessarily be a big issue, but you need to be more vigilant. Have regular health check-ups and maintain healthy living habits. By paying more attention, many problems can be prevented beforehand."

Madame Bell paused, then still awkwardly asked, "Could my daughter be... a bit unfavorable toward her parents?"

Mrs. Liu’s resigned expression and shaking her head, "It’s not like that. You don’t have to worry too much. Maintain a good attitude, and it will positively affect both your fortune and your daughter’s. As long as you maintain a good relationship with your daughter, things will naturally go smoothly."

"Thank you, Mrs. Liu. Your words have greatly reassured me," Madame Bell said gratefully.

Mrs. Liu smiled, "Not at all, Madame Bell. Remember, as long as love is in your heart, everything will get better."

Madame Bell nodded. After chatting with Mrs. Liu for a while, she felt much more relaxed.

She decided to pay more attention to Julia in the future. With enough time together, her daughter would naturally understand her intentions.

Mrs. Liu watched Madame Bell leave, then closed the booklet with a smile lifting the corners of her mouth, revealing a triumphant expression.

Madame Bell, please treat your daughter well.

Do your best to earn your daughter’s trust!

Moore Group.

Today, all departments of Moore Group were very busy, all engrossed in dealing with the sinking of Silicon Express and the smuggling incident.

At noon, James Thompson personally delivered lunch, watching Julia finish eating before leaving.

Secretary Du was curious and sneakily looked at the man who had just left. Wearing a duckbill hat, a mask, and sunglasses, his face was not visible, but his build was strikingly like that of a model.

Secretary Du couldn’t help but speculate in her mind: Could it be that the Chairwoman is keeping a man on the side secretly?

As she was thinking this, she saw Assistant Scott come out of the office, immediately suppressing her curiosity and burying herself in work.

Bell Family.

In the afternoon, around three, Madame Bell was preparing to leave with a thermal container in hand.

Seeing this, Connor couldn’t help but ask, "Madame, where are you going?"

Madame Bell smiled, "I asked the chef to prepare a nutritious soup of astragalus, goji berries, and red dates. I’m going to deliver it to Moore Group for our daughter."

Connor was taken aback, surprised, "You’re going to deliver it yourself?"

Madame Bell gave him a look, "Regardless of anything, Julia is still my daughter."

Returning to his senses, Connor smiled tenderly, "Yes, Julia is our daughter. It is right for you to care for her."

He was very happy that the Madame wanted to mend the relationship with their daughter.
