Chapter 245
Viola promptly threw herself into Chris‘ arms. “What are you saying? I don’t ever want you to go. Also, I’m just going through the motions with that party. My father can’t do anything if I’m not interested in any Riverton boys.”
Chris lifted her chin. “I know you’re the best.”
He had brainwashed Viola thoroughly with all his tongue leaving Viola lost in infatuation.

“By the way, how’s business lately?” she suddenly asked.
“Not that good, actually,” Chris said with an awkward look. “The market’s been unstable lately

By the way, do you some money on hand? I’m planning to import some equipment and upscale the company altogether, or we can’t even be competitive!”
Viola appeared troubled at that. “I don’t have a lot of money right now…”
“Ah… I guess I’m on my own.” Chris sighed unhappily.
“Don’t say that. I’ll definitely help.”
Viola was intent on pushing Chris to success so that he could ask for her hand in marriage from her father.
However, Chris just did not have the brains for success, and his company was in the red even after all those years.
Seeing the sadness on her beloved’s face, Viola promptly took off her necklace and said, “The gem on this necklace is a red diamond–it’s worth at least two million. Sell it off while I try to come up with something.”
Chris wrapped his arms around Viola and kissed her firmly on the lips right then!
“Don’t worry, I’ll be able to propose our marriage to your family soon! And then I’ll definitely marry you…”
His sweet nothings certainly left Viola swooning, though she suddenly said, “Oh, by the way… My dad’s been troubled because of the Turnbulls‘ Rejuvenation Pill. Can you try to get your hands on the recipe? My father would definitely agree to you marrying me if you get it…”
Chris was at once interested.
The Rejuvenation Pill was a Turnbull product, and Vicky was the one in charge.
And she appeared to be Frank’s sugar mommy, too!
Chris was certain that with his good looks and charm, he would beat Frank out of the water!
“Don’t worry. Just leave it to me.” He agreed to it without hesitation.
After seeing off Viola, Chris left to visit Helen immediately.
Gina and the others were overjoyed to see him. “Oh, Mr. Steiner! What brings you here today?”
“Haha… I just came to visit Helen. Is she here?”

“Of course,” Gina said fawningly, quickly making him tea. “Just walt here for a moment. I’ll go get her.”
Helen was soon coming downstairs, surprised that Chris would suddenly visit. “What brings you here, Chris?”
Chris grinned. “Nothing. I just wanted to see you… By the way, I’m sure you heard that Viola. Salazar is throwing a birthday party this weekend, right?”
“I did hear about it.” Helen nodded–she got the message early in the morning.
“Are you going to attend it?” Chris asked in curiosity.
“No.” Helen shook her head. “I heard that she’s planning to look for a husband at the party.”
