Chapter 1609

It was true that Wanda could not be blamed entirely for this matter. If Susan hadn't wanted Elliot's money, she would not be used by Wanda at all. "I am the juridical person of your company now; what else do you want me to do?" Susan couldn't help shaking, "Will I go to jail?!" "It depends on your son." Wanda laughed, "If you cling to him tightly, nothing will happen. You will be miserable if your son doesn't care about you!" After Wanda finished speaking, she hung up the phone. Susan listened to the beeping sound from the phone. Her ankles softened, and she almost fell down. She held on to the wall and stood firm. Elliot had blocked her, and he would never care about her. In Claireville, Avery's cell phone rang. Hayden thought Elliot was calling, and his face suddenly turned cold. Mom just had surgery and was still in a coma. He picked up his mother's mobile phone and saw the words 'Susan' on the screen. After thinking for a while, he answered the phone. "Avery, I made a mistake! Elliot is ignoring me now! Can you help me?! I don't know what to do; I'm scared now... Wanda said I'm going to jail..." Susan's brain was a mess, and she choked up when she spoke. Hayden didn't know what had happened, but when she heard Susan asking her mother for help, he frowned. Her mother was sick and lying in bed, and he did not want anyone to disturb her. "My mother is unavailable," Hayden said coldly. "You could go to Elliot if you want to, but I won't let you disturb my mother." Susan was stunned for a moment, "Who are you?" Hayden didn't want to waste words on Susan, and he hung up. After the call ended, Susan recalled that it was Hayden's voice she heard on the line. He had a cold demeanor just like Elliot's. Did Avery give her phone to Hayden? Avery probably did that to avoid talking to her. Susan's heart sank. Hayden looked at his mother lying on the bed. Avery had not come out from the effects of the anesthesia yet, and she was sleeping soundly. He turned on his smartphone and started looking for news in Avonsville. He got nothing. He left the ward, and called Mike. "Aren't you on holiday with your mum? I thought you'd be too busy to call me," Mike said lazily, "I don't know what you were thinking when you brought your mother on vacation on such a cold day. Even if you had to go on vacation in winter, you could have chosen a tropical country, couldn't you? I have absolutely no idea why you chose Clairville." Hayden ignored his snide remarks, and asked, "What's the matter with Susan? She called my mom just now." "This is a juicy piece of news, this is. I just heard about it recently." Mike raised his tone in excitement, "Wanda made Susan the juridical person of the company. If I were to guess, I would say the contract Susan signed with Wanda included an agreement for her to become the juridical person of Wonder Technologies to take up all legal responsibility, but she would get no money for doing so." Hayden asked, "What about that then?" "Wonder Technologies are about to make their move to appear on the market. They have already submitted the required documents for the Securities Regulatory Commission to verify." Mike scratched his chin. "I was talking to Mr. Locklyn about this just now! Wanda wanted to give the position to Susan because the Securities Regulatory Commission would probably reject the request for them to be listed. I don't think it's as simple as being rejected though. Now the Securities Regulatory Commission is looking through the documents, and if they find any problems, Susan has to carry all the legal responsibilities."
