Rising from the Ashes The Heiress They Tried to Erase Novel

Chapter 1043 Chapter 1044: "Ms. Watson, what an extraordinary coincidence to encounter you in this place," he remarked, casting a brief glance toward Chris standing beside her. Chris was surprised to see Hurst but kept his composure. He knew that while Hurst often participated in charitable activities, he typically appeared only when the media were present to document the event, delegating most of the actual work to his professional team. On those occasions, Hurst would specifically invite reporters to capture and broadcast such demonstrations of kindness.

Yet as Chris scanned the area, he detected no sign of media coverage whatsoever. "This truly is an unexpected coincidence. I never anticipated that you would be the one conducting charitable work here, Mr. Cooper." Maia's voice carried warmth and genuine appreciation. She had always maintained... She had always held positive feelings about Hurst, and now she witnessed a side of his character unknown to the public. What struck her most was Hurst's genuine assistance to the impoverished residents of the slums. Along the way, she had overheard countless people praising his dedication.

Maia realized this wasn't his first visit, nor did he resemble those who performed charity only for the cameras. The complete absence of reporters confirmed his sincere commitment to helping the disadvantaged. From Maia's lighthearted tone, Hurst sensed he had won her approval. "Simply contributing what I can offer," he replied, brushing off the praise with a casual gesture. "I regularly organize charitable activities because my wealth comes from society.

The atmosphere turned vibrant and celebratory. Chris's eyes darkened with contemplation. Meanwhile, Maia felt herself drawn to the appeal of helping others, Hurst's words echoing through her mind.

She focused on him and asked with humble curiosity, "Mr. Cooper, I'm eager to become involved in charitable work myself. Would you share any guidance?" "Absolutely." Hurst's smile broadened as he gestured to the volunteers behind him. "Would you like some firsthand experience right now? You could help me distribute these supplies, and I'll give you a thorough overview of charitable work, including details about the organizations operating throughout Wront." He reached toward his assistant, retrieved a volunteer armband, and extended it to Maia.

"I would be absolutely delighted to join your efforts," Maia declared, accepting the armband before turning to Chris. "You should help as well." Inside the Cooper Group headquarters, the conference room felt heavier than usual. Kiley let her eyes sweep across the long table before she spoke in a low voice. "I want to know what everyone thinks about the crisis we're facing now." Her words hung in the air, and most of the senior executives dropped their gaze without speaking. A handful of experienced board members, however, lifted their heads and fixed their eyes on her. . . .
