Chapter 9: The Happy 'Ignorant'
East Coast, Midtown Manhattan, New York, Central Park.
Around Central Park, you'll find a variety of old-fashioned hotel apartments with traces and styles of the 18th and 19th centuries, which may seem unremarkable on the outside, but when you actually walk inside, you will know that the inherent luxury is definitely not something that the average person can imagine.
And the people who can live in these buildings around Central Park are basically wealthy people from all over the world.
On the east side of Central Park, 32nd Street in Midtown Manhattan, in the middle of the park, the geographical environment is very superior.
This is home to the world's most famous 'Manhattan Hotel'.
The 48-story Manhattan Hotel is built in the 18th-century Victorian style, with a rock faΓ§ade and reinforced concrete interior, and is one of the most famous buildings built during the Industrial Age in the United States.
Walking into the Manhattan Hotel, the floor is all paved with smooth marble, the ceiling is hung with intricate crystal chandeliers, and on the walls of the ceiling, there are even murals made by famous artists hired when the hotel was built in the 18th century, and the whole painting is covered with the ceiling.
The lobby of the hotel is very spacious, and the male and female service staff at the front desk are also handsome and beautiful, so that people will not feel uncomfortable when they see it, and the male and female waiters at the front desk are not simple, at least they will use three Chinese languages to communicate with guests.
The Manhattan hotel is full of rich and expensive guests, and the price of each suite here is not cheap, and it is not sold on a daily basis, but for hundreds of millions of dollars, or it is outsourced for a long time.
Therefore, if you want to live here, you must not be rich, and you must have status and status.
So for outsiders, the Manhattan Hotel is not entertaining.
The guests he entertained were not ordinary rich or wealthy people.
This luxurious and expensive hotel was the property of the Wheatstone family, and now when the Wheatstone family members met with an accident, it was a logical transfer to the name of the only Wheatstone family member, Anne Wheatton.
Externally, this is a serviced apartment, in fact, the rooms here are rented or bought by some specific groups of people all year round, and they will not be open to the public at all.
As the owner of the property and the only boss of the Wheatstone family today, Anne certainly has a suite here, and it is still a super luxurious suite.
Seven rooms, three bathrooms, four living rooms, with a total area of more than 1,200 square meters, all kinds of furniture and facilities in the room are readily available, and they are all of the kind of luxury to the extreme, even the doorknob of the bathroom is inlaid with gold.
Of course, if that's all there is to it, it's just rationed to the nouveau riche, not to be sought after by some specific circles.
In Anne's suite, you can see paintings by famous artists and old-fashioned antique artworks on display, as if these precious things were ordinary things bought on the street.
The suites all have large floor-to-ceiling windows that let in plenty of natural light, but the view of the verdant Central Park and the entire Midtown Manhattan is a great view.
The interiors are modern and filled with warm tones that don't feel oppressive at all, while the central air-conditioning controls the temperature to keep you comfortable even during the hottest and coldest seasons in New York.
After Anne left California, she moved to New York with her housekeeper and lived there while dealing with some banking problems in the United States.
During this period, Anne would have an inhumane shame that haunted her, and as time went on, it became more and more intense.
It is for this reason that Anne begins to take a strange interest in the sperm provider, and then asks her butler to start collecting information about Kim Hyun Tae.
It is precisely because of this reason that Anne discovers that Kim Hyun-tae is actually a young single father, and at the same time submits a novel to a publishing house that he controls among his many industries.
Yes, the 'California Culture Publishing House', which sent mail to Kim Hyun-tae, can also be regarded as an industry under Anne's name, and Anne controls a lot of shares in the publishing house, and is a real major shareholder.
And the boy and woman, who originally had no intersection, began their wonderful life entanglements from this time.
"Tell the person in charge of the publishing house to give the best conditions as much as possible, as long as the agency of English publishing, the rest is not wanted. I don't think the other party will refuse such a condition. At this time, Anne sat in the soft beige sofa in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the information file about Kim Hyun Tae brought by the housekeeper, and at the same time whispered to her old butler.
Although Anne tried her best to make herself look careless, the old butler Nod saw something different.
Is it a concern, or is there something else?
For these, the old butler Nord does not know.
To be honest, Nord doesn't know what his young lady is thinking now.
Why is it that all of a sudden, the young lady has a crush on such a young boy?
Odd!
It's really weird.
That is, the Nord butler does not understand, and he does not have the kind of troubled and embarrassing experience that Anne has had in these days, otherwise he will definitely understand.
It's a pity that she can't and can't tell outsiders what happened to Anne, even to the trusted old butler Nord.
After all, it's really embarrassing and unspeakable.
However, it was precisely because of such an unspeakable reason that Anne had an idea and began to pay attention to Kim Hyun Tae.
Even Anne herself didn't understand why she had started paying attention to the Asian boy.
But there was always an inexplicable voice in her heart, constantly reminding her to pay attention to this teenager.
So under the constant intrusion of this little thought, Anne finally had such a move.
California Culture Publishing is a holding property under Anne's name, and because of Anne's instructions, this gave Kim Hyun Tae a feedback message and expressed his interest in the novel.
In fact, if it weren't for Anne, Kim Hyun-tae's novel would have been able to do the same, but it would have been a long time since it had been done.
As Kim Hyun-tae considered, the editors of this space-time publishing house have a lot of manuscripts to deal with, so it is impossible to see Kim Hyun-tae's submitted novels at once.
But with Anne, it's different, the big boss personally asked, and the matter must be something special.
In particular, Kim Hyun-tae's novels are really good, and they are the kind of books that will sell well at first glance, so it's even simpler, isn't it?
"Miss, according to the information we have, this young man dropped out of school after graduating from junior high school, and his child's mother died in a car accident, and he has been living with his child since then. Is such a person worth paying so much attention to him, Miss? A person who has dropped out of school is obviously unlikely to have much development in the future. β
Anne disagreed with the butler's reminder from Nord.
Joke!
The other party can answer his own answer sheet, which shows that this teenager's IQ is not ordinary.
The reason for dropping out of school is still the reason for the child, which leads to this result.
If this boy can continue his education, who can say for sure what he will achieve?
In short, Anne disagreed with the butler Nord's words.
However, Anne could not explain so much to the butler, after all, Anne did not want to tell the Nord butler everything to let him know.
Besides, the Nord housekeeper didn't know that this boy was the one who donated sperm, and now the baby he was pregnant with in his womb, and that guy was still a father.
"It doesn't matter, I'm just interested. Anne said it very lightly, as if she didn't care much, but the old housekeeper could see that this matter was definitely not what her own lady said, and there must be some special factors in it.
But he can't care about Miss's personal problems, so Nord has no choice but to stop mentioning it.
In fact, Anne's current attitude towards Kim Hyun Tae, even she doesn't understand what is going on.
It stands to reason that she has nothing to do with him, even if there is a little relationship, but it is negligible.
But she never imagined that since she accepted the use of Kim Hyun-tae's semen donated for her life and the fifty dollars in cash, she was already a little involuntary.
"Uncle Nord, tell the people at the publishing house, just say that I said it, the conditions are as relaxed as possible, and after the publication is negotiated, the publishing house will use the greatest efforts to promote the novel, after all, the money earned by this novel is equal to what I earned. β
Strictly speaking, Anne is not wrong to say this, because she is the controlling shareholder of the publishing house, and if Kim Hyun-tae makes money, it is also equivalent to her making money.
In the face of his young lady's order, what else could the Nord butler say, all he could do was nod his head and accept it......
After Anne finished instructing the Nord housekeeper, she turned her gaze to the window and landed on the green jungle of Central Park, and at the same time, her gaze was very complicated, and no one knew or understood how entangled and uneasy Anne's heart was at this moment.
"Annie!
What the hell is wrong with you?
Why did you suddenly have such a strong interest in such a little guy and help him?
It's not your character, and it's not supposed to be what you do. β
Could it be that it is only because of the relationship between those images that appear in the dream every night during this period of rest?
In her complicated gaze, Anne thought of these strange and embarrassing things that had happened to her recently, and her cheeks suddenly turned crimson.
Fortunately, at this time, the Nord housekeeper had already left, so he didn't see anything wrong with his young lady at this time.
"Alas, I am thinking about something nonsense, and it is absolutely impossible for anything to happen to me and that little boy. He is 26 years old, and the little boy is only 16 years old. I guess I just wanted to help the other person, well, that must be the reason. β
Anne comforted herself by making an excuse for herself in an extremely complicated and chaotic state of mind.
And in Los Angeles, California, on the west coast, in a slum community in a Chinese settlement, Kim Hyun-tae, who is with his daughter, doesn't know that there is a woman behind the publishing house who has 'helped' this matter, which has made things much smoother.
As the saying goes, the ignorant are sometimes happy.
And now, Kim Hyun-tae is such a happy 'ignorant'.
