Chapter 250


    Chapter 250


    Angel had just been pushed downstairs by Martha and fell on her knees. Her injuries might be severe,


    but she could still smile and bring them a fruit tter. It seemed Celeste had underestimated her sister.


    Mason hadn’t met Angel before, so he asked, “Who is this?”


    Before Celeste could speak, Angel introduced herself, “Mr. Fletcher, my name is Angel. We met at the


    jewelry exhibition a few days ago, but you might not remember. Mr. Reed is my brother-inw, Celeste


    is my sister, and Kaylee is my ssmate. I often hear her mention you.”


    Mason nodded but didn’t say much since they weren’t familiar with each other.


    Angel awkwardly turned to Liam and said, “Liam, I just cut these fruits. I’ll pack them for you to eat on


    the road. Owen said you haven’t eaten anything this morning.”


    Celeste frowned


    She suddenly asked, “Angel, what’s your position in thepany?”


    Caught off guard, Angel replied, “Operations assistant


    “If you don’t say, people might think your job is to run errands and serve people, Celeste said coldly.


    “My dad called me yesterday and asked me to talk to my husband about taking care of you more. If you


    really like running errands and serving tea, we can have him arrange that for you.”


    Angel’s mouth twitched, and she forced a smile, “Sis, I was just helping out on my way here.”


    Did they not know which floor the operations department was on?


    At least make your lies believable!


    Shawn really cared about her and even asked Celeste for help with her job, but Angel was a


    disappointment.


    Celeste didn’t bother exposing her and just said, “Dad is worried about your job. Focus on your work


    and don’t let him down.”


    Angel clenched her fists, her face turning pale, and whispered, “I understand, sister.”


    As they left the office and got into the car, Mason said, “Your sister doesn’t look much like you.”


    “We’re not blood-rted, Celeste calmly replied. “She’s adopted.”


    Mason didn’t ask any further.


    Celeste continued. “Do you think I was too harsh on her?”

    Liam seemed to have finally found an opportunity to tease her and said coldly, “Haven’t you always


    been harsh?”


    Celeste remained silent, thinking about how this man always found a way to tease her.


    Mason chuckled and said, “If someone suddenly appeared in my life, wanting to share my parents love


    and what’s supposed to be mine, I might not be able to be generous either. However, I probably


    wouldn’t be as tant as you. That would make it easy for people to criticize.”


    Celeste thought to herself, “Man, he’s got some serious emotional intelligence.”


    She had been at a disadvantage with Angel many times before, only now realizing this fact, while


    Mason had caught on right away.


    Angel was the type who was good at ying herself as a victim, painting herself as a fragile little girl.


    The reason she always seemed to have the upper hand was that she didn’t make her dislike too


    obvious, and Shawn always felt like Angel was the one being bullied. No matter how satisfying their


    arguments were, in the end, Angel always came out on top.


    Sometimes being tough and stubborn wasn’t always the best approach. Strategy is required.


    Celeste sincerely asked Mason for advice.


    The two started discussing without any hesitation, while Owen watched his boss’s face getting darker


    and darker….


    For the sake of harmony in Mr. Campbell’s family, and to avoid working overtime himself, he coughed,


    interrupting the two. “Mr. Fletcher, what would you like to eat?”
