Chapter 991: Wedding Preparations!
“Ma’am, Ma’am! They’re back! They’re back…!”
f.a.n.n.y was so excited that she was at a complete loss and stuttering.
Mrs. Hunt frowned. “Pete and the others are back?”
“Yes, yes! And, and…”
Mrs. Hunt understood that Nora, Cherry, and Xander had likely also returned.
But so what even if they were back?
Wasn’t their return just in time for the group of people here, then?
Nora had already blown these shareholders away with her commercial prowess. The strategies she had drafted in the company had impressed them all.
But who’d have expected them to suddenly find out that Nora and Justin hadn’t actually registered their marriage?!
In other words, Nora didn’t have the right to manage the Hunts’ a.s.sets at all!
The shareholders here were also terribly troubled, hence the commotion today.
They didn’t really have the intention to speak out against anything; it was just that the Hunts ultimately still had to be ones managing the Hunt Corporation…
Mrs. Hunt understood this even more than them.
When Justin first met with the accident, no one was clear about Nora and Justin’s relations.h.i.+p—after all, the two of them were already living together. Who would have thought that they were not married yet?
They had successfully fudged the issue with that
Who knew that this issue would be brought to the surface when the authorities came to investigate tax issues?
Mrs. Hunt was extremely troubled. What should she do?
She waved to f.a.n.n.y and suddenly said, “They must be tired from traveling. Let them rest first…”
At the very least, she mustn’t push Nora out to handle all these now…
Mrs. Hunt was completely on Nora’s side now.
But as soon as she spoke, footsteps came from the door, and Nora’s calm voice traveled over. “We are not tired, Mrs. Hunt… Why are all of you here, though?”
As soon as she said that, someone said, “Ms. Smith, we just found out that you and Mr. Hunt are not married yet. You are not his legal wife, so you can’t manage the company!”
“Oh.”
Nora replied calmly, “Then I won’t bother anymore.”
Everyone: “?”
Mrs. Hunt was also stunned. “Who is going to manage it if you’re was.h.i.+ng your hands off it?”
“The one who owns the company, of course.”
After speaking, Nora suddenly turned sideways. Behind her, three little ones walked in with a large figure.
There was some reflection at the door, so Mrs. Hunt couldn’t see the man’s face clearly right away.
But even if she couldn’t…
How could Mrs. Hunt possibly fail to recognize the grandson she had raised?!
She got up suddenly and looked at Justin in disbelief!!
Her lips were trembling as she called out in surprise, “J-Justin?”
Justin strode forward and soon came up to Mrs. Hunt. He nodded and said, “Grandma.”
“…”
For a while, the whole room fell silent.
Everyone looked at Justin incredulously.
Wasn’t Justin dead?
Why was he showing up in front of everyone again?
Mrs. Hunt was the first to recover. She laughed and cried, and then she suddenly shouted, “You’re alive!”
No wonder… no wonder Nora didn’t shed a single tear after Justin’s death… They must have planned this!
Couldn’t Nora have let her in on it, though?!
But after experiencing so much, Mrs. Hunt had already let such things go.
With tears of excitement on her face, she said, “Good, good! This is wonderful!”
The shareholders at the side were also terribly excited. They said, “It’s great that you’re back, Mr. Hunt!”
“This is great. Looks like we won’t have to get Raymond and his family back from wherever they are…”
“Yes, and your father won’t have to come back to run the show anymore either…”
“The Hunt Corporation has found its leader!!”
“…”
As they spoke, Justin looked at them and suddenly put his arm around Nora’s shoulders. He said slowly, “Next, I want everyone to go all out and help me with one thing.”
“What is it?”
“Didn’t all of you say that Nora and I are not married yet? Prepare for the wedding, then! In 20 days, I will give her an unforgettable wedding!”
“… Okay!”
Following Justin’s words, the entire New York instantly became busy.
—
At Hotel Imperial Finest.
“h.e.l.lo, all appointments for the week before and after the 26th have been canceled. We will compensate you ten times the penalty… Yes, you heard right, it’s ten times… Why? Because we’re holding the wedding of the century!”
In the kitchen.
“Reconfirm that the ingredients will be airlifted the morning of the 26th! They mustn’t arrive too early, or they will be stale by lunch at noon!”
…
At the Smiths.
Ian was in his room calculating something on the computer.
Next to him, Joel said, “Dad, give her more. All of this is for Nora… I will also give her 10% of the shares in my name…”
Ian sighed. “Don’t you think I want to? But she doesn’t want it! She says that it’s annoying when you have too many things!!”
Joel frowned. “Then what should we give her as a wedding gift?”
Next to them, a hesitant Tanya finally spoke up. She said, “Er… I don’t think she would really care even if you give her this much money. Instead, it’s better that you…”
“…That we do what?”
Both Ian and Joel looked at her.
Tanya coughed and replied, “It’s better that you gift her the most comfortable bed in the world.”
“…”

While everyone was having a headache over their choice of gifts…
At the Hunts’, Iris looked at Nora and Justin in shock and exclaimed, “What did you say? Xander only has one month left to live?!”
