A Touch of Sweetness novel (Finnick and Vivian) novel Chapter 1216

Hendrick looked reassured. He'd been worried that Fabian would demand something preposterous from them. This request perfectly aligned with the Youngs' desire to protect their daughter from trouble, after all. They were all looking out for Hannah, in their own says.

"No problem, no problem. If that's the case, we won't mention it at all," Hendrick declared.

"Don't even mention it to the Blackwoods," Fabian warned.

"Even the Blackwoods?" Hendrick was astounded. "They're Hannah's family, after all. It wouldn't hurt, would it?"

"The Blackwoods are a big family, and it'll be hard to ensure that the secret stays within them. I'm afraid that if we tell them, the entire industry will find out about it," Fabian replied mildly.

Hendrick pondered, then nodded reluctantly. He couldn't see why the Blackwoods would sabotage Hannah in any way, being one of their own. However, Hendrick trusted his newly-minted son-in-law, deciding that it would be better to avoid the probability altogether.

"I'll be damned!" Jason suddenly yelled. The Youngs had nearly forgotten about him amidst their more pressing matters. Curiosity had gotten the better of Jason, and he couldn't resist peeking at the third document. In doing so, he'd gotten way more than he bargained for.

The third document, in fact, was a certificate presented to Hannah from a charity organization. Inscribed upon it were these words, In recognition of Ms. Hannah Young for her donation of 15.5 million to the needy students of the Gablurg Tribe.

Wait! There's more? Jason hastily turned it over.

At the back of the certificate, someone had penned a thanksgiving note. Thank you, Ms. Hannah Young, for contributing 15.5 million to the education fund of fifty high schools in Horbah. Our administrative blocks will be named after you.

Another 15.5 million? Fabian, you've outdone yourself once again! Jason thought reverently. It was even more astonishing that Fabian had done this all under Hannah's name. Hannah's going to be just as famous as those names my school premises were named after! Fabian had thus ensured that Hannah would leave behind a veritable legacy.
