    Emma couldn’tment on that kind of thing. Whether it was the rtionships of her son or daughter,


    she had always adhered to the principle of not getting involved.


    Seeing that her daughter was displeased, Angie said, “How can you still not be satisfied? You shouldn’t


    count on your brother. If you count on him to get


    married first, you’ll be a nun for the rest of your life.”


    Ste was trying to save her brother and get herself out of the predicament at the same time. She told


    her mother not to turn her sights on her and started to give a speech. “Mom, look. Chris is so


    outstanding. How can he be a bachelor? I really don’t think we can just give up on him like that.”


    Seeing the few of them narrow their eyes at her, Ste coughed dryly and continued to bluff, “I think


    Chris can still be saved. He’s not as bad as you think yet. We can try to help him get back on track.


    Look at how cute Christina’s baby is. Even if you don’t want a grandson or granddaughter, I still want a


    nephew or niece. Look at Ava. She has numerous nieces and nephews. How perfect is that? I only


    have a nephew now.”


    Ste counted with her fingers.


    Natalie was stunned when she heard this. “Isn’t this kind of persuasion a little too obvious?” she


    thought.


    Emma and Natalie looked at each other and smiled. Neither of them spoke. They nned to let Ste


    continue her performance.


    In order not to be pimped out by her mother, Ste put in her best in her effort to get away. “Mom, tell


    me if what I said makes sense. Chris is actually very outstanding. Look. He has it all. Culture and


    capability. He even has the perfect job. It’s just that he is a little dumb at times. That is not a fault at all.


    Look. Doesn’t Natalie also cure Trevon’s arrogance? There will always be a cure for a w. Isn’t that


    what they say? You have to match the medicine to the illness. Chris’s medicine is definitely still on the


    way.”


    Emma was amused by Ste’s words. Ste spoke matter-of-factly. Now that Ste was working under


    Leia, she spoke more and more like her. She did not even pause when she spoke.


    Angie naturally noticed her daughter’s improvement. “You’ve been with Leia for so long, but I haven’t


    noticed anything else except you’ve be quite eloquent. You can juste up with a speech on


    the spot.”


    Ste thought to herself, “That’s right. The speed of Ms. March, when she speaks, is one of the fastest.


    No matter what, she is my teacher. I learn a little from her.”


    Leia had said that the most important thing about intimidating others was speed. One had to make their


    arguments continuously before the others could react.

    “Didn’t you and Christina ask me to study hard with Ms. March? I’m just listening to you guys. If I don’t


    improve at all, Christina will scold me again. Mom, you really should consider my suggestion. Seriously,


    my brother is such a good person. He’s so outstanding.” Ste sighed inwardly. It was the first time in


    more than 20 years that she sang her brother’s praises like that.


    After saying that, Ste winked at Natalie, indicating that she had seeded. Natalie smiled and did


    not know what to say.


    Angie was a little persuaded by her daughter. As parents, no one wanted their children to remain single


    forever. She didn’t want Chris to have to celebrate Single’s Day every year.


    “But there’s nothing I could do about him. Your brother is holed up in the hospital every day. It’s not like


    he will pick up a wife if he goes on a walk around the street. Or do you think that one will fall from the


    sky?”


    Besides, it was possible to pick up money from the ground. A wife, on the other hand, was not a


    possibility.


    Ste spoke mysteriously and with a special gaze as if she could predict the future. “Fate, Mom, do you


    know fate? I predict that my brother’s fate is not far away. Mom, don’t be anxious. When we get back to


    Athana, I’ll help you pay more attention.”


    How could Angie not know what her daughter was thinking? She just couldn’t be bothered to expose


    her. “Alright, alright. If you help your brother be normal, I can even call you my sister.”


    Hearing this, Natalie burst outughing. From her words, it could be seen that Angie was really anxious


    about Chris’s marriage.


    “No, I’d better still call you Mom.” Ste was afraid of being struck by lightning if her mother decided to


    call her sister. As long as Angie didn’t drag her towards the altar, it was fine. She didn’t have any other


    requests. She didn’t have any


    extravagant hopes for working at the front desk anymore. After all, she couldn’t go back to her old post.


    The next morning, everyone went to send Natalie and Trevon. Jasper brought all the toys given by Ava


    and Frank. The little guy had the most gains out of the trip. He ate delicious food and had fun.


    After sending off Natalie and the others, Joseph took Frank and the Yamin family to tour Sapphire City.


    In the afternoon, Joseph left. He wanted to go back and see Christina.


    Joseph had done his homework about pregnancy and childbirth. The biggest problem he was afraid of


    was Christina bing depressed after giving birth. Girls like Ste who liked to ck off would not be


    in danger of that. However, Christina was different. She liked to live a fulfilling life, but she was the most


    free during her postpartum recovery. She ate, slept, and slept and ate. She would keep an eye on her


    child every day. Once she took things too seriously, she

    would have a tendency to be depressed.


    The meticulous Joseph would always want to apany her and tease her. At the same time, he


    would chat about what happened every day. Or he would bring his work home and apany


    Christina during her postpartum recovery. They would sit on the bed and deal with work together.


    Christina would watch him work and he would asionally let Christina participate.


    It could be said that he put in a lot of effort.


    Daniel was afraid of neglecting Angie and Charlie. In the afternoon, he asked his daughter to send their


    location and personally apanied Angie and Charlie to tour Sapphire City.


    At the same time, Trevon and Natalie arrived at Athana off. When Jim received Trevon’s message, he


    immediately came to the airport to wait for them.


    He didn’t want to be caught in a traffic jam and have his sry deducted. Jim believed that Trevon was


    hormonal and erratic after marriage as in the previous years. It was something that only Natalie could


    treat.


    “I’ll handle everything, Mrs. Wilson. Give me this too.” Jim took the stuff from Natalie.


    Looking at Jim who was dragging three suitcases, Natalie suggested, “Mr. Hawk, why don’t you give


    me one? It doesn’t weigh much.”


    Jim quickly waved his hand. He did not dare. “No need, Mrs. Wilson. I’ve been on a diet recently and


    need to workout more.”


    Upon hearing this, Trevon nced at Jim from behind his sunsses. “You’ve been lucky recently.”


    Jim didn’t understand what Trevon meant. He replied, “No, I don’t think so. I didn’t pick up any money


    yesterday, nor did I win the lottery.” He did not think he was lucky in any way.


    In the car, Trevon sat in the back seat with his son in his arms. Natalie thanked Jim.


    Jim looked ahead seriously and pursed his lips without saying anything. Trevon’s low voice came from


    the backseat. “Are you on the same side as Frank?”


    Jim was dumbfounded. He looked at the man in the rearview mirror and saw that he looked as he


    always did. It was impossible to tell if Trevon was in a good or bad mood, but his words were


    confusing.


    Natalie nudged the man beside him and reminded him, “Don’t start talking and stop halfway. Be direct.


    Mr. Hawk is still driving.”


    Jim gave Natalie a thumbs up in his mind. Only she would dare to talk to Trevon so directly.


    “Your next month’s bonus will double. Tell me, how did you know that Frank would make a surprise


    move? Did you discuss it with him in advance? Did you


    3/6


    10:00 T


    cheat?”


    “Mr. Wilson, for goodness’ sake. I didn’t even touch the phone when we made the bet the other day. I


    answered you directly. I don’t have the ability to read minds, so I couldn’t possibly just tell you what Mr.


    Roberts’s thoughts were from afar.” If he had such ability, he would have been lying in bed at home and


    cking.


    Jim was in a hurry to exin himself. Trevon really knew how to make trouble for him.


    Trevon actually knew that Jim had never discussed it with Frank at all. How could Frank tell others


    what he was thinking? Frank had deliberately told Trevon he would leave a few dayster, but in the


    end, he went to Sapphire City on the same day. It was only because Trevon knew Frank well that he


    made an inappropriate call in the middle of that night.


    For the rest of the ride, Trevon ignored Jim. As for Jim, he was delighted because his bonus had


    doubled.


    It was still some time before they reached the Wilson’s residence. Natalie, who had been on the ne


    for so long, felt a little sore in her back. She leaned against Trevon’s shoulder and prepared to tell


    Emma that they hadnded safely.


    Sliding the screen lock on her phone, she said, “Aunt Emma, I’ve reached. Don’t worry.”


    Then, she thought about it. Since Joseph had gone out to y with Ava, she should send a message to


    them as well. Little did she know that Joseph had already returned home. At this moment, he was


    apanying Christina as he told her about the fun things that happened on their tour of Sapphire


    City.


    Natalie texted, [Joseph, I’ve reached home. Have fun today.]


    Joseph quickly replied, [I’m already at home. Ava and Frank are still outside. It’s good that you’re back.


    Call me if you need anything. If you need anything at the base, let me know.]


    Natalie’s heart was filled with warmth. Joseph was always so warm-hearted and generous with his


    support for her. [Alright, thank you, Joseph. Take good care of Christina. I see that Christina doesn’t like


    to sleep much and doesn’t like to lie down. Joseph, spend more time with her. Pregnant women are


    prone to depression.]


    Joseph responded, [I know.]


    All the content of the conversation was read by Trevon whose head was lowered. A man’s voice came


    from above her head. His eyes were narrowed. “Is the tomboy depressed?”


    She put away her phone and put it in her pocket. “No. But when I entered Christina’s room yesterday, I


    realized that she was a little bored. After we left, she didn’t sleep or lie down. Don’t pregnant women


    spend most of their postpartum recovery sleeping with their children so they can regain their vitality?


    But I realized that Christina doesn’t like to sleep. In such a situation, if Joseph isn’t at


    4/6


    10:00


    home and doesn’t apany her, she will be more and more bored. In addition, Christina has


    always been very busy. When she’s so free, she will feel empty inside. It’s better to be careful.”


    The man nodded with understanding. He didn’t look very concerned and was just asking casually.


    Anyway, it wasn’t his Natalie who was sick. Besides, they weren’t having any more children so such a


    thing wouldn’t happen.


    At the same moment, in Sapphire City, Ava held Frank’s hand and followed Daniel, Angie, and Charlie.


    They walked around for a long time before Daniel led everyone into a particrly stylish, dimly lit cafe.


    “Come. We can sit for a while and take a break. We’ve been walking for a long time. How is it? The air


    here in Sapphire City is still okay, right?” Daniel was wearing a suit and leather shoes. He had rushed


    over directly from thepany. He handed the menu to Angie and Charlie and asked them to order


    something to drink. “Go on. Take a look. What do you want to drink? Let’s rest our feet. There’s no


    hurry. You can stille out tomorrow.”


    The bodyguards standing at the door were carrying bags of various sizes. Ava ordered a cappino


    and Frank got atte. Angie did not like coffee. She was afraid that she would not be able to sleep at


    night and would be too awake, so she ordered a ss of milk.


    Ste was in an extremely good mood. She kept praising, “I like this city. It’s so awesome. I’lle


    again next time.”


    Daniel smiled at her. “You definitely have toe. This is also your sister’s home, which means it is


    yours too. You cane over anytime.”


    “Why don’t you ask Daniel to find you a man here?” Angie took a sip of milk. She quite liked the local


    customs here.


    “Mom, why did you go off topic while chatting? Did the essays you write in school always digress?”


    Ste pouted.
