Ailina’s POV:We talked about a lot of things like the dishes here and our views of life. Surprisingly, we had a lot in common.“I didn’t expect that a twenty-year-old Miss Wilson would have so many ideas that coincided with me, a nearly forty-years-old woman.” She said with a smile.I nodded and smiled bitterly.To be honest, I was no longer twenty years old. I had a rebirth.While we were eating, a waiter walked to our table. Suddenly, he tripped and poured all the boiled fish into Charlotte’s embrace.Then, he hurriedly apologized. “I’m sorry. I’m sorry! I didn’t mean to. I’m really sorry.”The waiter squatted down to help her clean up filthy things in a hurry. Charlotte waved her and said, “No problem. I will go to the bathroom. Please get me a towel.”“Yes, ma’am!” The waiter immediately runs to look for a towel. Charlotte apologizes to me, “I will clean it. Please wait for me.”I nodded and asked, “Is it hot?”“No!” She shook her head.After she left, Evan sent me a message thro
Ailina’s POV:Hearing Alicia’s words, I nodded. “Okay, I want to eat all of this. I will go visit tomorrow.”“Oh good! Tomorrow is not the weekend. You should be here at night, shouldn’t you? I will go shopping tomorrow morning.” She said happily.“Here talk to Ailina. I will add a few dishes. I’m going to cook my special.” She stuffed the phone in Jenny’s hand again.“Ailina, I examine the company’s operation today. Unexpectedly, Selena got the third actress in the recent film “Lowering the Bid”. I thought that she had never had a breakthrough and was just immersed in the past glory of the film “Summer Day.” I thought that she might not survive in the showbiz industry. Her contract is about to expire. I’m still concentrating whether to renew the contract. I have not been here for few days, but you help her get the role in the film, “Lowering the Bid.” How did you do that?”She said excitedly, “I don’t believe you will abuse screenwriter’s powers to the benefit them.”I said softly, “
Alex’s POV:I didn’t say anything. I just looked at the document in my hand, my eyes wide open.Ron thought that I was angry, so he hurriedly comforted me. “President Alex, don’t take it too heart. We don’t have much hope for her from the beginning. Besides, it’s all her faults. I don’t think Frank will blame on you.”Hearing Ron’s words, I raised my head and asked him, “Have you seen this document?”He shook his head, “No, I have not. I was about to have a view after the people from Daisy Business left, butt I saw you coming, so I just followed you upstairs.”I laughed and said, “No wonder. Alright, call Ailina in.”Author’s POV:Ailina came late. She had just arrived at the office when Ron came over to call her. “Ailina, President Alex wants you in his office.”“Okay.” She put down her things and got up to Alex’s office.As soon as Ailina left, the office exploded.“Guess what President Alex call Ailina for?”“I guess he wants to talk with her about what happened yesterday. When I l
Ron’s POV:Hallie looked at Ailina and smiled coldly.David tried to play nice this time. He told Ailina, “You are the daughter of the President George. Even if you leave the Marketing Department, you still have other places to go. Is there any department you prefer to go to?”Hallie cut in, “Since you have learned a few lessons in the designing before, maybe you can try to work for design department given the situation that you cannot stay in the market department anymore. Isn’t it better for us to sisters to be in the design department together?”Hallie’s words aroused resentment. Someone said sourly, “Being President George’s daughter is so lucky. She just need to shift to the another department even though she made a huge mistake. Then it is all gone.”“It’s good to have a backer. There is no need to be responsible for doing wrong. If it were us, we would have been fired long ago.”“Then why would she come to the company? Isn’t it better to just stay at home? She doesn’t have the
Hallie’s POV:Everyone knows that I graduated with second place. They all flattered and licked me because of this. Now they know Ailina was the one who got the first place, and the score was much higher than me. Therefore, everyone’s gaze towards me also changed.I was afraid that everyone knew Ailina was very excellent, so I just told everyone that she often skipped classes, deliberately keeping silent about her graduation grades.That was the reason why they got far more amazed when they knew Ailina was indeed the first place.“Good heavens, I heard that she rarely go to school. How can this young princess still rank top in the clause?”“Designing required talents, which mean it is impossible for one to master it through learning solely. Some people have learn it for their whole life, but only ended up as an ordinary designer, or they are in want of creative and original ideas. However, some people are born with this talent?”After hearing what other people said, I looked upset. I g
Hallie’s POV:I didn’t know how I got back to the office. I wasn’t in great confusion, for I was too preoccupied with Ailina’s design, which was rather familiar to me.However, Alice, who had already been sacked, still came to ask me. “Hallie, you said before that your cousin would like my design. Did you ask her? What did she say?”I looked up at her. “Dear, I just sad that my cousin might like it. I sent it to her, but she said that it was too low-class. She is now the second main character in Director Lewis’ play. Wearing such a clothes to walk the red carpet would make her a laughingstock.”Alice widened her eyes in shock. “You? How could it be possible?”I feared that she would make a scene with me in the company. Then everyone would know that it was I who made Alice unable to hand in her design draft. So, I comforted her, “Dear, don’t be anxious. I will let my cousin ask her friends. Perhaps her friend need your clothes. Even though they might not as famous as my cousin, she is
Ailina’s POV:I remember the night that I cooked porridge for Ricky.I pursed my lips and said, “Alicia, I am actually quite talented at cooking.”“You are talented in cooking? Do you think I don’t know you? You are just like your mother. You are genius in everything, except cooking.” She chuckled.I said, “I really cook well.”That night, he said that the porridge was delicious, and even ate up the porridge.Thinking of this, I asked again, “Oh, right, Alicia what should people with stomach troubles eat to nourish their stomach?”She thought for a while and said, “Lightly seasoned dishes are good for people with a weak stomach. He can drink some soup, like mutton soup, chicken soup, mushroom soup. These are all good.”Then, she looked at me and said, “Why do you ask this? Your new boyfriend has a weak stomach?”I shook my head, “No, just a friend of mine!”“Friend? Then you can invite your friend to my home, I will cook soup for him. If he has a weak stomach, he needs to drink soup a
Ailina’s POV:I only felt it had been a long time since I had eaten such an easy meal. At home, Susan and Hallie would always say something to disgust me from time to time.Some time ago, I went to Cathy’s house for dinner, but I was filled with guilt. The Parker family always talked to me carefully. Though I was the same age as Cathy, Cathy would hide something from me. I didn’t want to inquire about other people’s privacy. I only felt that I might cause trouble to them when I ate in their home.After dinner, Jenny and I went to the kitchen to wash dishes. Alicia went to take a bath and prepare to read for a while before she went to sleep.After tidying up the kitchen, we went out together, preparing to go for a walk along the river to help digestion. After all, we had eaten quite a lot today.We talked about the reorganization of the Black Panther motorcade as we walked.I said, “Jenny helped me contract the original members of the Black Panther motorcade. Then give me a list.”She
David’s POV:Ailina’s words seemed to make some sense.The surrounding people looked at me as if they were waiting for more gossip.Hallie had gone aboard and Susan had been kicked out of the business. Therefore, we plan to start with Wilson’s. Almost everyone in the company was under Ailina’s arrangement. I wanted to pull out her subordinates one by one. Charlotte was the first one as she was too capable and was too strong an opponent.However, because of Ailina, everything seemed to go wrong.I said anxiously, “What nonsense! My daughter is no longer young. How can I… Don’t talk if you don’t know.”“Since you don’t have, then its less likely for President Alex to have. After all, he is older than you and has a happy family. On the contrary, Vivian’s mother has been dead for so long. You must have been alone all these years.” She said.I now eagerly wanted to sew Ailina’s mouth.However, she looked at me with a smile. At this moment, everyone standing at the reception desk was lookin
Charlotte’s POV:Everyone acknowledged Ailina’s position in the company and that she was a very capable young miss, so they all obediently dispersed.After everyone left, Ailina said to me and Mrs. Anderson, “If you have something to say, go to the reception room.”But Mrs. Anderson didn’t move. “Why go to the reception room? I only want to say here. She dared to do, but dares not to let others know.”I was so angry that my body trembled. “Ever since I married Ethan, I have never done anything sorry to him. Why I am afraid of being heard? If you make trouble here, you will be bother others. Behave well at least as a person.”“Behave well? Have you ever behaved well? It is shameless for you to rob business from other companies.” She became angrier and was about to curse.I closed my eyes and took a deep breath, bringing out reasons, “It’s free for customers to decide who they do business with. And the most competent one will win their hearts in the end. You may not understand, and stop
Susan’s POV:I called George and told him about this matter. He agreed without thinking.After all, Hallie has a bad reputation in the domestic fashion design circle right now. It was impossible to fix that. Also, the company didn’t need her. With her conflict with Ailina and that Ailina suffered a lot this time, George couldn’t protect Hallie anymore.However, he didn’t want Hallie to suffer any grievances. Sending her abroad was the best choice.Hallie finished all the formalities in a week and left very quickly. Before she left, I took her to the Murray’s.After we kept asking and asking for so long, the Murrays allowed Hallie to go abroad to study.However, with the condition that Hallie had to always remember that she had a fiance, and when she returned from abroad, she would immediately marry Darren.Hallie and I agreed with almost everything, as long as Hallie could go abroad now.It remained unknown how things would develop after Hallie left. We needed to catch the chance to l
George’s POV:A sound came.Ailina throws the fruit knife on the table. “Dad, you have been showing favoritism to Susan and Hallie all the time. Whatever you say now can change nothing.”“Other than paying back the stab and drugging Hallie, I will agree to whatever you say.” I pursed my lips and said. This time I wronged Ailina and it was my fault.The scene covered in blood still gave me lingering fear.Dad also sat down on the sofa with Steve’s help. “Then, let Susan leave the Wilson family. Do you agree?”“Dad, don’t meddle in this. I am asking Ailina.” I said anxiously after hearing what he said.Ailina smiled and said, “Grandpa is right. I want Mrs. Park to leave the Wilson family. What do you say?”I was a little embarrassed, “I…”“Don’t you agree? Do you forget what you just said? Anything other than those two. I have name one, but you still refuse. Don’t you mean it?”I frowned. “Ailina, Susan has been with me for so many years, without the title of the hostess of the family.
Ailina’s POV:As I spoke, my eyes turned slightly red.After hearing my words, Grandpa shook his head helplessly. “It was my fault. I failed to teach your father to be a good man.”I pursed my lips and thought for a long before I said, “Grandfather, I want to be my own master.”He was surprised and then nodded, “You have grown up and have your own ideas. I am glad about that.”“Grandfather, when are you going to hand over my mothers inheritance to me? I remember that she has a will which say that, as long as my deeds satisfy you and I won’t go astray, you will give it to me when I reach adulthood.”I said with some difficulty, but I had to. So my things had happened, and I had smashed Susan’s evil plans many times, but Susan was getting bolder and bolder. Besides, Grandpa hadn’t put forward handing the things over to me so I could only take the initiative.First, I felt that I could do things more conveniently by controlling these things. Second, it was to protect Grandpa. If Grandpa
Ailina’s POV:My phone suddenly rang. It was Sleeve.“Ailina, are you feeling better? Where are you?”I said, “Much better.”“That’s good!. When will you come back?” He asked.“Anything wrong?”“Your grandfather’s health is getting worse. He is very angry that you have suffered such a great grievance. He intends to expel Susan from Wilson, but your father does not agree. Your grandfather wants to use extraordinary measures. I am worried they will attack him again…”I pursed my lips and said, “Wilson, it was Tracy who drugged me this time.”“Ailina, don’t misunderstand. Tracy has left. She should be bought by Susan. It was not Mr. Wilson’s order. He was also drugged….” Steven anxiously explained.I gently made a fist. Did I misunderstand Grandpa?But in my previous life, Grandpa had indeed
Ailina’s POV:I was surprised by the fact that Ricky always took my word seriously.“I am just joking with you!” I said helplessly.“I am not joking.”“I don’t want it. I will buy whatever I want.”“It’s not necessary for a girl to act innocent to her boyfriend.” He said seriously.I replied, “Other girls want plush toys. I am greedy that I want a house.”“It doesn’t matter. I don’t mind.” He messed up my neat hair.“I mind. I don’t want to live off you.” I curled my lips.“Then why don’t I give my property to you and I will live off you in the future!” He asked with a smile.I glared at him, “I am a bit hungry.”Rican’s POV:I didn’t continue with this topic and asked Peace to bring up the meal.I pulled a chair for Ailina. After she
Hallie’s POV:After Mrs. Murray left, I cried, “Daddy, Mommy, Darren’s legs are broken. He is the person with only one leg. Why do you want me to marry him? I won’t marry. I won’t.” Then I began to cry.“You don’t have the right to criticize that Darren is a person with only one leg. Don’t you know why he had one leg missing? You are just making up for what you have done to him.” Dad said coldly.Dad had always been gentle with me. It was the first time he spoke so harshly. I felt wronged. I bit my lower lip and said, “You have promised that it was Ailina who was to marry him. Why do I have to be with the bride now? What’s more, the Murray family has taken fancy to Ailina, not me. I have been rejected by the Murray family before…”Hardly I had finished my words when Dad slapped me. He said angrily, “You want your sister to marry him. How dare you? Why should Ailina
George’s POV:After Dad left, Susan and Hallie walked to my side and said softly. “It’s been so many years, but Mr. Wilson still can’t accept me.”When I heard her words, I turned around and glared at her. “You still blame Dad for not accepting you. Look what you have done?”Susan lowered her head and said, “You have slapped and rebuke me. Why would I do this? Isn’t it for the sake of Wilson? Are you willing to see Hallie go to jail?”I glared at her. “For the sake of the Wilson? In front of so many people, everyone knows that I am going to sell my daughter and drugged her. My daughter would rather die than be sold. This matter will be probably make people discuss for several years.”“I don’t know Ailina was so strong…”“Who told you to drug her? Who to hold you to use such a despicable method? She is my daughter. How can you do this to her
