Chapter 403 - Evan gave his resignation letter!!
"What!! Evan is the culprit. How did this happen" Jeff asked shockingly.
"I don't know why Jeff but I feel he will not betray me…like never! Something might have happened…so I came here to meet him" Jean said.
"Oh…do you need any help" Jeff asked.
Jean shook her head. "I will be fine. You continue with your work. Meet you tomorrow" She smiled.
But her face looked pale that he couldn't help but worry. Deciding to inform this to Scott, he nodded his head.
Whereas Jasper tugged her arm and Jean smiled at him before bending down a little. "What is it little brother" she pinched his cheeks.
Jean is oblivious of 'shocking acts' of Jasper in the conference hall along with Jeff. For her he is a innocent yet incredibly genius and cute chubby boy.
Whereas in other's eyes (mostly directors from Grey corporations) he is little a mini king Yama. So they are obviously shocked when Jean pinched his cheeks as if he is a 'ordinary little being'.
To they utter shock Jasper giggled like a small child. "Haha…..its nothing sister Jean. At last a snail named Enrick decided to purpose to his female snail. I am excited…" he jumped with joy.
"Even I am excited…"Jean laughed.
Others are dumbfounded to realize that he is just a twelve years old ordinary boy who knew how to giggle and also jump like his fellow friends.
How can he easily change his attitude according to the people he talk?
Even Jean laughed, Her pearl like siren laugh made others gawk at her. It is because they never saw their indifferent VC laugh carefree.
They indeed realized that Jean, Jasper and Jeff share same type of mentality. But they didn't think of real reason behind it .
However, they didn't fail to notice the tender warmth in both Jeff and Jasper's eyes. They couldn't help but sigh…..new members of Jean doting club. All of them are extremely powerful.
"OK I need to go guys. Meet you tomorrow" Jean smiled.
They bided their bye and went back to the penthouse…
"Jas, you know that Evan is the culprit right. You didn't seem so surprised when Jean said it" Jeff asked.
"Hmm….We know. But my big brother wanted sister Jean to face her problems with out our help and that is the reason brother Rick didn't tell her" Jas said.
…..
Jean and Helen started to walk to the VVIP hall, when her uncle stopped her in middle. He is totally shocked because she is acquainted with Young master of Valdez and the little prince of the unknown yet invincible family.
"Jean you know them. How?" his surprise is clearly written on his face.
"Hmm….when did my uncle started to care about my friends." Jean mocked.
"YOU!!" Vanessa who is already frustrated couldn't help but shout.
Jean smirked as the main manager of the hotel rushed to them. INA is one of the important investor in this chain of hotels so they are very attentive when Jean and Helen visits.
"Sir, Madam please don't disturb the VVIP people of our hotels. My job will be at stake if Ms. Grey even lift her finger. Please.." he apologized to Jean and Helen.
Without waiting for the reply, he respectfully escorted Jean and Helen to VVIP door, leaving the rest of people in even more daze and shock.
.....
Evan smiled sadly as Jean sat beside him and took his hand into her own. Her heart ached at his grave and pale face.
"We will not ask you why you did this Evan. Just tell us you didn't betray us on your own will" Helen said softly.
They are indeed angry on him but after seeing his lifeless, pale face their anger diluted into thin air.
"Why will I do it on my own will Hellen. I worked as hard as Jean to raise this empire to higher heights. INA is also my blood and sweat" his voice choked.
Jean patted his shoulder. "I knew Evan and that is the reason we are not asking you the reason" she comforted him.
Evan took out his resignation letter and handed it to Jean.
"Jean, That Hermes were not normal people. They blackmailed me with my parents family business….I thought they might not do something adverse but we underestimated them." He smiled sadly.
"They asked me if you are any way connected to Richards. Though I knew the truth I lied to them and it's fine. But you found out that I was the mole and they will start suspecting you if I don't quit my job." he sighed.
Jean and Helen looked at him with misted eyes. He is like a pillar to the INA…without him…they can't even think of it.
"Don't worry. I will secretly handle everything but I….can't come out into public as the face of INA." He patted both their heads as they started getting emotional.
These both are like his own sisters…to pity that he have to leave them.
"Evan.." Jean and Helen choked as both of them hugged him.
"Silly girls. This will end very soon and I will be back as dashing young vice CEO of INA. But mark my words Jean…..keep your trust in Richards and also the council. For always " he patted her shoulder.
"How do you know about them" Jean asked all shocked.
"You will find soon" he said. 'So soon if you succeed in Johann's mission' he thought.
"This Elder even have my girlfriend kidnapped. Jean if you sign my resignation letter he will free her" Evan said and gave her his pen.
Jean nodded her head. She will support him no matter what…..and she will also keep his words in her mind.
Always believe Council.
Taking the pen she squeezed his hand. "Be safe my friend. INA will be always waiting for its strong pillar to come back" saying so she signed.
