Chapter 505


    Meeting her brother’s death-like gaze, Rose shivered timidly and sat down on the couch. Edward sat


    down beside her.


    “You don’t have to look at me like that. I’ll go back after dinner.” Her mother-inw and the others went


    to a rtive’s cé and would eat before returning home..


    Sherri and Hackett were out visiting friends for Christmas too. Hackett would bring the two children out


    with them so he would recoup some losses. Especially since he would be bringing gifts over as well.


    Only at Trevon’s and Frank’s, would Hackett often be at a disadvantage. Perhaps Hackett was willing


    to suffer the loss. Thus, having been so calctive, if Sherri and Hackett didn’t get rich, who would?


    They were too smart. William said, “Rose, it’s fine for you to spend the night here, right? Edward?”


    He immediately understood what his father-inw meant. “William, I have no objections. Rose would


    like it too.” Edward didn’t dare to have any objections. The entire family was afraid that Rose would be


    tired and unhappy. However, Rose was very sensible and would take him into ount too. She would


    stand in his shoes and consider the issues. Sometimes, it felt like they had switched roles as she acted


    like a big sister who always said that she would protect him. William nodded in satisfaction and


    dragged Daniel away to y chess while Joseph ran upstairs alone..


    Emma’s gaze


    followed him for a while before looking away. Grace patted Emma’s hand. “Don’t worry.”,


    Rose said, “My mother-inw went visiting. She was afraid that I would be too tired from running back


    and forth, so she didn’t let me go. However, I still n to go back tonight.” Otherwise, Edward’s parents


    would be alone at night. It would be too lonely for Christmas. There were quite a lot of people now at


    the Roberts family. It was very lively. It would be fine if Rose was not here.


    “Let’s go. I’ll take you to see my work.” Ava held Rose and prepared to bring her upstairs to see her


    recent earnings. The tform was getting better and better, especially since she had help from Frank


    and Joseph.


    “What do you do?” Rose asked curiously as she followed behind!


    Frank invited Edward to drink coffee. “Let’s go. We can go somewhere else and have a cup of coffee.”


    At the same time, Christina had returned home to the Yamin family’s residence.


    As soon as she walked into the vi, she saw her sister lying on the couch with her limbs spread out.


    She kept wailing in that ridiculous pose.


    When Ste saw her sistere in, she quickly sat up and startedining, “Christina, why didn’t


    you ask me toe along with you when you ran away? I thought it was cold today, so I wore an extra


    thick down jacket.”


    As she spoke, she took off her coat, leaving her only wearing her white sweater. She continued, “Let


    me tell you, our mother didn’t go out to a Christmas party. It was entirely a blind date. You know, Great-


    aunt’s house is filled with men and women. I did a count. There were eight men and eight women. Why


    don’t they just match them up?


    “It’s like a huge wedding celebration. They even sat in rows. I was so depressed. What do you think our


    Great-aunt is thinking? When Mom saw that scene, she was stunned. I think Mom definitely didn’t know


    about it beforehand.”


    Ste was afraid that her sister would not be able to imagine that sight, so she painted a very vivid


    picture.


    Christina was not stupid. Every year, she could not escape from the urging of their family to get


    married. This year was definitely the same. However, she did not expect it to be so spectacr. It was


    unexpected even for her. Fortunately, she did not go. However, even though she escaped from the


    blind date set up by her rtive, she did not escape unscathed today.


    “Chris, did you see anyone you like?” Christina sat down beside her brother.


    Chris rolled his eyes at his sister. “What do you think?” The moment he saw what was happening, he


    fled the scene alone.


    Christina did not answer. She was in a good mood. She picked up a magazine on the table and flipped


    through it. She crossed her legs leisurely. Ste, who was sitting opposite her, asked, “Christina, how


    are you and that future brother-inw of mine progressing? Let me tell you, if you still have no progress


    after Christmas, our mother can give you ten more choices. You’ll be done for.”


    Angie could really do such a thing. Actually, Angie’s actions were understandable. She was anxious.


    After all, there were three children at home, but none of them had anything in the way of a rtionship.


    Angie was afraid that they would drag it out for so long that she would be dead. If that happened, Angie


    just might w her way out of her coffin just to matchmake them. She had said this many times and


    was a little terrified.


    Joseph’s face shed through Christina’s mind in the next second. He was really handsome and


    seductive, but he seemed to


    have said that he was not a proponent of marriage.


    “Don’t ask. After Christmas, you’ll be working at the Yamin Group. Why are you staying at the Wilson


    Group every day? Are you nning to retire at the front desk? Give the young university students a


    chance. Don’t upy the position.”


    “Then, can I still be a receptionist when I go to thepany?” Ste carefully looked at her sister’s


    expression. At this moment, her sister looked very serious and did not show the slightest hint of joking.


    Chris was afraid that he would be next, so he diminished his presence and lowered his head.


    Seeing that Christina was silent, Ste continued, “But I just like being at the front desk. I don’t like the


    infighting that goes on in thepany. The Yamin Group has you, right? Can I continue to be the front


    desk at the Wilson Group?”


    Since she was young, she didn’t have to worry about food or clothes. She didn’t go through any


    pressure in her life at all. In addition, she was the youngest in the family. Charlie doted on her very


    much.


    Christina nodded, as if she was listening to her subordinates report their work experience in the


    fulfill them. Tell me when you find the elixir of immortality so that I can make it a possibility.”


    In Athana, bigpanies had a limit on the age at which the receptionists could be recruited. And yet


    this girl still wanted to be a receptionist forever.


    Ste said, “But I can still do this job now. I’ll leave when I’m old. I don’t n to continue doing this


    when I get older.”


    Christina asked, “Then, how long do you intend to do it for?”


    “We’ll talk about thatter. I want to do it as long as I can. Anyway, I think working at the front desk is


    pretty good. It is free and easy. No pressure. My work hours are fixed.”


    Christina was a little tired of her sister’s easygoing attitude. In fact, Christina really wanted to tell her


    sister that women needed to have their own careers. After all, the receptionist was the job of young


    people. How old could they do it till? She rubbed her temples. “Even if you were to go to a fresh


    market, you have to bargain for prices. And you think you can retire at your job and do until however


    old you want?”


    “Pfft…” Chris could not help butugh at his sister. Receiving a sharp gaze from Ste, he held it in and


    diminished his presence again. He wanted to escape, so he stood up from the couch. “I’ll go to the


    study to take a look at the medical records. You guys can continue.”


    Christina ordered, “Sit down. From today onwards, you will learn business management from me and


    various business matters.”


    When Chris heard his sister, he was instantly petrified. He replied in disbelief, “Christina, are you


    joking? Am I taking over thepany? Don’t joke around. My career is in medicine.”


    Christina thought to herself, “Indeed, I overestimated him a little, but he still has to learn. What if I don’t


    want to watch over thepany one day?”


    There was always a chance.


    “There’s no room for discussion. Start doing as I said tomorrow. And you, go back to thepany after


    Christmas. You can start by being my secretary.”


    After hearing her arrangements, Ste and Chris looked like they had nothing to live for.


    When Christina looked up, she saw Angie getting out of the car from the corner of her eye. She quickly


    threw down the magazine, changed into slippers, and sneaked upstairs as if there was a tiger chasing


    after her.


    The two people on the couch were initially in a good mood today. Now, they wanted to disappear


    because of their sister. Christina wanted Chris to learnpany management and Ste to return to


    thepany to learn from their sister. Dear God. Did she think it was easy to keep up with her


    progress?


    Christina was always flying here and there. She might as well live in the skies. Good heavens. Who


    could save them from her?


    The siblings sighed in unison.


    Chris med Ste. “Why did you mention the prospective brother-inw for no reason? You caused


    all of this.”


    “What’s wrong with mentioning my future brother-inw? Mum told her to find one. Didn’t you see the


    fanfare today? It was all prepared for Christina and you.”


    Ste did not feel that she was in the wrong and pouted.


    Chris felt like he had nothing to live for. He had a headache. If Christina quit, he would have to take


    over. “Hurry up and learn from Christina after Christmas. Don’t mess around in the Wilson Group.From N?velDrama.Org.
