Chapter 505
Turning Of The Tide (Natalie and Trevon)
Chapter 505 Meeting her brotherâs death-like gaze, Rose shivered timidly and sat down on the couch. Edward sat down beside her.
âYou donât have to look at me like that. Iâll go back after dinner.â Her mother-in-law and the others went to a relativeâs placé 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 Trevonâs and Frankâs, would Hackett often be at a disadvantage. Perhaps Hackett was willing to suffer the loss. Thus, having been so calculative, if Sherri and Hackett didnât get rich, who would? They were too smart. William said, âRose, itâs fine for you to spend the night here, right?
Edward?â
He immediately understood what his father-in-law meant. âWilliam, I have no objections. Rose would like it too.â Edward didnât 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 account 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 play chess while Joseph ran upstairs alone..
Emmaâs gaze followed him for a while before looking away. Grace patted Emmaâs hand. âDonât worry.â, Rose said, âMy mother-in-law went visiting. She was afraid that I would be too tired from running back and forth, so she didnât let me go. However, I still plan to go back tonight.â Otherwise, Edwardâs 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.
âLetâs go. Iâll take you to see my work.â Ava held Rose and prepared to bring her upstairs to see her recent earnings. The platform was getting better and better, especially since she had help from Frank and Joseph.
âWhat do you do?â Rose asked curiously as she followed behind!
Frank invited Edward to drink coffee. âLetâs go. We can go somewhere else and have a cup of coffee.â
At the same time, Christina had returned home to the Yamin familyâs residence.
As soon as she walked into the villa, she saw her sister lying on the couch with her limbs spread out. She kept wailing in that ridiculous pose.
When Stella saw her sister come in, she quickly sat up and started complaining, âChristina, why didnât you ask me to come along with you when you ran away? I thought it was cold today, so I wore an extra thick down jacket.â
As she spoke, she took off her coat, leaving her only wearing her white sweater. She continued, âLet me tell you, our mother didnât go out to a Christmas party. It was entirely a blind date. You know, Great-auntâs house is filled with men and women. I did a count. There were eight men and eight women. Why donât they just match them up?
âItâs 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 didnât know about it beforehand.â
Stella 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 spectacular. It was unexpected even for her. Fortunately, she did not go. However, even though she escaped from the blind date set up by her relative, she did not escape unscathed today.
âChris, did you see anyone you like?â Christina sat down beside her brother.
Chris rolled his eyes at his sister. âWhat do you think?â 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.
Stella, who was sitting opposite her, asked, âChristina, how are you and that future brother-in-law of mine progressing? Let me tell you, if you still have no progress after Christmas, our mother can give you ten more choices. Youâll be done for.â
Angie could really do such a thing. Actually, Angieâs 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 relationship.
Angie was afraid that they would drag it out for so long that she would be dead. If that happened, Angie just might claw her way out of her coffin just to matchmake them. She had said this many times and was a little terrified.
Josephâs face flashed through Christinaâs 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.
âDonât ask. After Christmas, youâll be working at the Yamin Group. Why are you staying at the Wilson Group every day? Are you planning to retire at the front desk? Give the young university students a chance. Donât occupy the position.â
âThen, can I still be a receptionist when I go to the company?â Stella carefully looked at her sisterâs 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, Stella continued, âBut I just like being at the front desk. I donât like the infighting that goes on in the company. The Yamin Group has you, right? Can I continue to be the front desk at the Wilson Group?â
Since she was young, she didnât have to worry about food or clothes. She didnât 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 company. âYes, thatâs fine. If you are so obsessed with the position of receptionist, itâs not impossible to fulfill them. Tell me when you find the elixir of immortality so that I can make it a possibility.â
In Athana, big companies had a limit on the age at which the receptionists could be recruited. And yet this girl still wanted to be a receptionist forever.
Stella said, âBut I can still do this job now. Iâll leave when Iâm old. I donât plan to continue doing this when I get older.â
Christina asked, âThen, how long do you intend to do it for?â
âWeâll talk about that later. 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.â
Christina was a little tired of her sisterâs 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. âEven 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?â
âPfft...â Chris could not help but laugh at his sister. Receiving a sharp gaze from Stella, he held it in and diminished his presence again. He wanted to escape, so he stood up from the couch. âIâll go to the study to take a look at the medical records. You guys can continue.â
Christina ordered, âSit down. From today onwards, you will learn business management from me and various business matters.â
When Chris heard his sister, he was instantly petrified. He replied in disbelief, âChristina, are you joking? Am I taking over the company? Donât joke around. My career is in medicine.â
Christina thought to herself, âIndeed, I overestimated him a little, but he still has to learn. What if I donât want to watch over the company one day?â
There was always a chance.

ï¤Chapter 504 My Ex-Wife Is A Big Shot In Disguise ï¤Chapter 227 âThereâs no room for discussion. Start doing as I said tomorrow. And you, go back to the company after Christmas. You can start by being my secretary.â
After hearing her arrangements, Stella 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 learn company management and Stella to return to the company 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 blamed Stella. âWhy did you mention the prospective brother-in-law for no reason? You caused all of this.â
âWhatâs wrong with mentioning my future brother-in-law? Mum told her to find one. Didnât you see the fanfare today? It was all prepared for Christina and you.â
Stella 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. âHurry up and learn from Christina after Christmas. Donât mess around in the Wilson Group.
