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-in-law and the others went
to a relative’s 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 Trevon’s and Frank’s, would Hackett often be at a disadvantage. Perhaps Hackett was willing
to suffer the loss. Thus, having been so calculative, 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-in-law 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 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..
Emma’s gaze
followed him for a while before looking away. Grace patted Emma’s hand. “Don’t worry.”,
Rose said, “My mother-in-law 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 plan 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 platform 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 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, “Christina, why didn’t
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.”
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.”
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.
“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. Stella, who was sitting opposite her, asked, “Christina, 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. 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 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.
Joseph’s face flashed 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 planning to retire at the front desk? Give the young university students a
chance. Don’t occupy the position.”
“Then, can I still be a receptionist when I go to the company?” Stella 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, Stella continued, “But I just like being at the front desk. I don’t 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?”
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
company. “Yes, that’s fine. If you are so obsessed with the position of receptionist, it’s not impossible to
fulfill them. Tell me when you find the elixir of immortality so that I can make it a possibility.”
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, “But I can still do this job now. I’ll leave when I’m old. I don’t plan to continue doing this
when I get older.”
Christina asked, “Then, how long do you intend to do it for?”
“We’ll 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.”
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 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. “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 the company? 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 the company one day?”
There was always a chance.
“There’s 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.”
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 This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .
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. “Why did you mention the prospective brother-in-law for no reason? You caused
all of this.”
“What’s wrong with mentioning my future brother-in-law? Mum told her to find one. Didn’t you see the
fanfare today? It was all prepared for Christina and you.”
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. “Hurry up and learn from Christina after Christmas. Don’t mess around in the Wilson Group.
