Chapter 636: Happy to Be a Father Again?
How many years has the world's richest man been around white Americans?
I'm afraid that since there was a Forbes rich list, it adds up to no more than ten times. Among them, the Mexican telecommunications giant has snatched it from white Americans several times. The Indians grabbed it once last year.
Looking back, Link seems to have been robbed in the '80s by a chicken man, who is said to own one-sixth of Tokyo's commercial land and valued at 160 billion yuan. It seems to be the only time a yellow man has sat in that position, and later the chicken plate man was arrested and imprisoned for fraud, and the chicken plate real estate bubble burst......
And he's about to get to the top of this list. He didn't know what kind of pressure he would face.
The Mexicans are at the top for the first time, and what do the Americans do? They don't do anything, they just talk.
They say that Mexicans are the richest people, but they do less than one-tenth of the charity of the richest man in the past. While Mexicans claim that it makes more sense to create jobs than to donate money. But under pressure, he immediately said he would donate hundreds of millions of dollars to the university.
The Indian topped the list for the first time last year, and as a result, he became a target for Wall Street. The stock prices of several IT companies he invested in were cut in half last year.
Perhaps Americans think that the richest man in the world can only come from the United States, and that he must be white.
Every Mexican was forced to come up with money to make a statement.
And he's yellow, and he's in the United States. He wasn't anxious, but Claire was right, he had to be prepared for what to do with the reporters. Especially American journalists.
This time he couldn't have gotten away from hiding at Ozette Farm.
The following week, Time did not publish an interview with him. And he also went to play with his family. However, the wife is pregnant, the child is still young, and there are not many things they can play with.
The Albuquerque International Hot Air Balloon Festival takes place from October 1 to 3. There is also a competition part.
Link had already spent a lot of money to build a hot air balloon. At the Hot Air Balloon Festival, there are thousands of hot air balloons participating in a race. Link wasn't for the game, though. His hot air balloons are dedicated to keeping kids entertained.
His hot air balloon is a cartoon avatar of three children grinning and laughing. To be on the safe side, Link spent more than two million dollars on the balloon, which was supervised by several of his bodyguards.
This hot air balloon may not be the prettiest, but it's definitely the most eye-catching.
On that day, all Americans knew that the Link Hans family attended the Albuquerque Hot Air Balloon Festival.
After flying in the sky in a hot air balloon for more than an hour, the Link family was ready to return to Huazhou. He's very busy now, and he planned to take the kids out to play, just to let the kids know more about things other than Ozette, and make them happy by the way.
After coming down from the hot air balloon, the children chattered excitedly, as if they were gesturing the balloons they saw in the sky.
There are indeed many balloon styles at today's hot air balloon festival. There are various cartoon characters from all over the world, and there are also hot air balloons that are very orthodox to win the race, but there are also beautiful spray paintings.
However, Hannah tells Link and Jessica that she likes the balloons at home the most.
Regardless, Link knew he had achieved his goal. The kids were happy. In particular, Jessica got into the balloon together, and her body did not react badly at high altitude, and the oxygen tank specially prepared for her lack of oxygen did not work. This proves that Jessica is in good health.
Jessica also laughed and said, "Some people still go bungee jumping in five or six months." Link only pouted at this, it was obvious that it could threaten Jessica and her belly, and he wouldn't allow her to do it, no matter how well he guarded it.
When children are happy, loud adults can also be happy.
It's just that Link and Jessica's happiness didn't last long.
They plan to spend one night in Albuquerque and then return to Washington.
At eight o'clock in the evening, Tiger walked into the living room of the suite with a calm face and whispered a word in Link's ear.
Link frowned, but immediately remembered something. Thinking of that possibility, his face changed drastically.
He looked up at his wife, but saw her looking at him.
Jessica saw the change in his face, she had never seen her husband's expression change so much, and couldn't help asking, "What happened?"
Link gathered his thoughts and said, "There's someone out there looking for me. I'll see you. You accompany the child first. ”
Jessica guessed from his expression that the person was definitely not a friend, but when her husband said that, she didn't ask much: "Well, there you go!"
Link stood up and kissed her before heading out the door.
As soon as he walked out the door, his face sank and he asked, "Where is the man?"
"I had a new room opened, on the sixteenth floor. ”
Link didn't say anything more, and quickened his pace to the elevator.
In room 1646 of the hotel, Link meets a black-haired white woman who is nearly thirty years old, apparently of Latina descent descent
The woman could tell from the way she was dressed that she was working-class.
The woman saw him walk in and stood up.
Link saw her, her age had changed, but it did coincide with the face of a memory in his mind: "Hello!
The woman still stood and said, "Hello, Mr. Hans! I'm Jenna Carlos, a friend of Linda's." It's Linda Comey's friend!"
Link reached out again and motioned for her to sit down. When she sat down, he said, "Ms. Carlos, may you come to me?"
"Because you know Linda Comey. My friend has congenital heart disease, and when she was twenty years old, I watched a hot air balloon festival with her. A month later, she found out she was pregnant. Although the doctor advised her to kill the child. But you know, she lost all her loved ones at the age of nineteen, and she wanted to have a loved one, so she insisted on having a baby. ”
Link asked in a deep voice, "And then?"
"During her pregnancy, her body was overwhelmed and she died seven years ago. I was her best friend and she asked me to take care of the children. In accordance with her will, I became the guardian of that child. But she never told me who the father of the child was. Maybe she didn't know very well. Jenna Carlos said in a deep voice. "She has a habit of keeping a diary. I was sorting through her belongings two years ago and saw a passage in her diary. She wrote in her diary that she only knew the child's father's surname was Lin. She didn't tell me those things, so even though I've seen you, you know, Asian faces, for us, it's hard to remember them. ”
When she said this, she looked into Link's eyes, but she didn't see that his face was still composed, so she continued, "But today I saw you and your family at the Hot Air Balloon Festival, and I remembered. And, I think of your daughter Hannah's surname Lin. And you should have spent the night with her. ”
She pulled out a photo and said, "This is a picture of a child." ”
Link took the photograph of a bust of an eight- or nine-year-old boy. The boy has an oriental face, but is distinctly mixed-race. The boy in the photo is smiling happily, but looks a little thin and a little pale. He took a closer look and saw that the boy's eyebrows, eyes, and mouth were somewhat similar to his own.
He exhaled and said, "Thank you, Ms. Carlos, for talking to me about this. I see what you mean. I did spend the night with her that day. He looked into the other's eyes and said. "But now I can't give you any answer. Also, what's his name?"
Hearing this, Jenna Carlos was a little excited: "You want to refuse to recognize him?"
Link looked at the picture and said, "Ms. Carlos, you know, I have to determine if he is my child." Also, I had to ask my wife's opinion. You know, she's pregnant now! I hope you understand. But tomorrow, I'm going to do a DNA match with my child. ”
Jenna Carlos knows that many rich people will not admit to having illegitimate children. Many people have even filed lawsuits because of this. But a lawsuit can hurt a child a lot. And if Link denies it, it is impossible for a child like her to get the rights he deserves.
Listening to what Link said now, it doesn't seem that he doesn't want to admit the child, but he is just worried about whether his wife can accept it. She knew it was the right thing to do.
Although she also hoped that the child would return to his father, if Link could not admit the child in the end, she would rather the child not know about it.
"His name is Alan Lim," she said. After a pause, she added. "Mr. Hans, if you can't admit him, please don't overstimulate him. Like his mother, he has congenital heart disease and valve insufficiency in the main vein, and although the condition is mild, I hope he can have a better life. ”
Link looked up at her, nodded and said, "Ms. Carlos, please leave your contact information." I'll be with you until 10 a.m. tomorrow. Also, thank you so much for telling me this. ”
Link asks Tiger to send the man out and sit alone in the room.
He didn't expect that he might have another child. Hannah was like that, and so was this child who could have been his son. Hannah, though he missed her birth. But at least I grew up with my mother or father.
If that Alan Lim is really his son. This son, like him, grew up in an adoptive family after losing his mother.
Just now he noticed that Jenna Carlos didn't seem to have a wedding ring. That suggests Jenna Carlos may still be single. That Alan Lin grew up in an incomplete family.
His own background made it impossible for him to deny illegitimate children like other rich people. If that Alan Lin is really his son, he won't be able to pass his psychological barrier if he doesn't admit it. Only now he doesn't know how Jessica will react when she knows about this.
He sat there for a moment, then walked out of the room to get to the elevator.
