From the look in his mother's eyes, Chirs could tell that if he didn't say something, he wouldn't be able to have a good dinner tonight.
Seeing that his mother was staring at him, Chris thought for a moment. Then he said, "It's alright. It's good for exercising." This meant that he was still willing to run. Angie picked up the fork and hid a smile. She began to eat happily. "Eat more.
Exercise consumes stamina. You can only run and run faster when you have enough stamina.” Only then could he catch up with Leia.
Stella and Chris were surprised. They thought, "There couldn't be any conspiracy, right?" Seeing that the siblings were stunned and did not even dare to pick up food for Angie's enthusiasm, Charlie felt that his wife was too much of a contrast. It would indeed make people suspicious. "Ahem, ahem, atem. Hurry up and eat." Stella suddenly thought of a question. She wondered if her father had told her mother that Leia also lived in this neighborhood.
"Mom, do you know that Christina arranged for Ms. March to live in our neighborhood?" Upon hearing this, Angie took out her astonishing acting skills. She was poker-faced and even a little surprised. She held her fork and forgot to eat. "Ms. March? Is she the leader your brother-in-law invited from Sapphire City?" At this moment, Charlie looked at his wife's acting skills and felt he had delayed the birth of an acting queen.
He secretly praised her in his heart.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtChris also stared at his mother's face, wanting to see something. However, his mother's face was filled with surprise. Her mouth was so wide open that it could fit an egg.
"That's right. Dad, why didn't you and Christina tell me? Even if you didn't tell Mom and Chris, you should have at least told me.
No matter what, | work in the company and am Ms. March's assistant.” In the beginning, she was always on tenterhooks. She would not have been so afraid if she had known Ms. March was not that scary.
Angie gave Charlie a look. Chris lowered his head and ate silently.
Charlie looked serious. He sat up straight and began to act. "Your brother-in-law arranged for her to come to work. He arranged for her to be here because he knew this place well. It's just a simple arrangement of the staff dormitory. What do | need to tell you? Stop thinking about shortcuts and follow her lead in work." The couple looked at each other. Angie expressed that she was satisfied with her husband's acting skills. Charlie's eyes were filled with questions, saying, "How was my acting?’ Angie nodded, which could be considered a positive answer.
Stella replied, "Alright." Charlie said, "Yes, learn well from Ms. March." Stella sighed. "Indeed, outstanding people are always secretly working hard to stun everyone. She's already so busy with work, but she still insists on running every day, and it's so cold. With her perseverance, | can't compare to her in my life." Angie said, "Looks like you still know your place. Not bad." Stella replied, "I've always been very clear about my position. My navigation has never deviated.” For example, her inner plan was to overdraft her sleep in the first 35 years and travel the world after 35.
She did not tell them her thoughts on the dining table. She was afraid her status would be the same as her brother's.
What if she couldn't even sleep on the weekend? Angie could not be bothered with her daughter. She began to move the chess pieces on the chessboard. "This girl should be about the same age as Christina. If she comes to work alone in Athana, doesn't that mean she and her boyfriend are separated?” This question was too hard for Charlie. He could not take on his wife's performance. After all, he was not a gossipy person. How could he know every employee's private life? "I think Joseph and Christina should know." It meant he didn't know.
Stella was happy to gossip about this question. She was also very curious about what kind of man could control a strong woman like Leia.
"I'll call your sister and ask. She came here to help us manage the company, so we have to take care of her. You don't have to look like that. After your father retires, this position is yours. Ask your sister if she wants to take it." "I don't want to take it. Don't look at me. I'm also helping you now." Stella quickly waved her hand and firmly protested that the burden was on her.
Chris was speechless.
After Charlie sent the plot to his wife, he quietly watched his wife act as he ate quietly.
Angie put down her fork and took out her phone. She did not look at her daughter, who was waving her hand, or her son, who was eating slower. She called her eldest daughter. The call was connected. She pressed the speaker button and picked up her fork to eat.
In everyone's eyes, there was nothing inappropriate about this action. Usually, when Angie called her daughter, she would put it on speaker so everyone could chat with her child.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe phone rang a few times before it was picked up. Joseph answered the call. Even through the screen, one could hear Joseph's gentleness and politeness. "Angie, Christina is helping George take a shower.” Angie lowered her head and leaned closer to the phone. "Joseph. | just wanted to ask what the name of the person you arranged is. Oh, Ms. March. Why didn't you tell me she lives in our neighborhood? | only found out when Stella mentioned it." After she said this, Joseph understood everything and took over the role. "Angie, so it's about this. | originally arranged for her to stay in the neighborhood where Natalie used to live. Considering it's too far from the company and inconvenient to commute, | changed to our neighborhood." Joseph's tone was not biased toward Leia, as if it was a simple matter of arranging staff accommodation, just like Charlie said.
"Angie, did something happen? If she doesn't do well, I'll get someone else to help.” Charlie thought, "Joseph's acting is even better than Angie's." "No, no. It's just Chris and Stella ran into her this morning." Joseph said, "Angie, you can rest assured with her at work. She has always been very responsible.” "I know. Charlie has already praised her a few times. Otherwise, how could he come home for dinner every day? That's why | think of inviting her over for a meal occasionally. It's not easy for a young lady to come over from so far away to help us. It's quite pitiful. However, remembering that there is an old leftover man at home, I'm asking if Ms. March has a boyfriend. If she does, I'll ask Stella to send something over occasionally and not call her home to prevent her boyfriend from misunderstanding.” Joseph chuckled. "Angie, wait a moment. Ill go ask Christina. Christina might know better than me." There was silence on the other end of the phone. Everyone was waiting for an answer, but no one said anything. Angie said, "Okay, go." On the other end, Joseph moved his phone away and held his breath. After a minute of silence, he began to step and pretend to walk. "Angie, Christina said no because she's too busy." "That's good. That's good. Otherwise, if our good intentions do evil deeds and we cause trouble for others, it won't be good. Call me if you need anything." Joseph replied, "Okay, bye, Angie." "Bye, Joseph," Stella added.
"Goodbye, Stella." After hanging up the phone, Angie looked at her daughter and glanced at her son from the corner of her eye. She instructed, "Invite Ms. March here for a meal another day when you're free." This was a difficult task. "Mom, | can accept the mission, but | can't guarantee | can complete it 100%. Our relationship isn't that good. It only improved a little after the morning run recently.” Angie seemed like she was only inviting her casually. "We call her because of our etiquette. If she doesn't come, it means she stands on ceremony. You only need to invite her." In that case, Stella didn't feel much pressure anymore. She quickly agreed. "Alright." In Sapphire City, Christina came out of the bathroom with her naked son in her arms. She handed a towel to Joseph, who was walking over, and teased, "It's a waste for you and my mom not to enter the entertainment industry." She held her son's long johns in her hand. The temperature in the room was 86 °F. George didn't like to wear clothes in the bathroom. He loved coming out naked after taking a shower.
Joseph helped his son put on his clothes. Christina turned around to clean up the aftermath of her son's shower.
"Leave it for me to tidy it up.” After Joseph helped his son put on his long johns, he picked up the remote control to adjust the temperature and continued, "Angie is worried sick about Chris's marriage. It's easy to get sick if she worries about it for a long time. You have to pay more attention. Chris's personality is similar to Leia's. Leia doesn't like that kind of matchmaking opening.
Chris also rejects the blind dates Angie shows him. This kind of coincidence is just right." Christina did not listen to Joseph. Instead, she went to clean up the mess. Her voice came from the bathroom. "That's because my mom used to show Chris photos of the daughters of wealthy families. After seeing too many of them, Chris felt disgusted and rebellious." Just like how her mother had always watched television s about mother-in-law and daughter-in-law fighting, she had begun to reject marriage. She did not want to experience the battle between a mother-in-law and her daughter-in-law in television s.
She helped her son put on his long johns and cute pajamas and patted his butt. "Go find your grandpa and grandma." George slid out of bed and put on his little slippers. "Oh, okay." After his son opened the door and went out, Joseph hugged Christina, who came out of the bathroom. He could not help but lower his head and kiss the corner of his lips. "So this arrangement is the best. If we had arranged for Chris to run from the beginning, Leia would have guessed it immediately.” Christina hugged his waist and looked up. "That's because Leia happened to work hard and can't meet Chris." The chances of encountering someone who left early and returned late were low. Moreover, the community had more than an entrance.
Joseph said, "From Angie's tone, it should have some effect. Chris shouldn't suspect anything. The zero contact between them is the best smoke shell to dispel their guard." Christina smiled and thought, "Who can beat this man in terms of scheming? Trevon and Frank probably can.’ Whether it was Angie, Charlie, or Christina, they all knew very well they did not even need to hope that Chris, a leftover man who was not young and hated blind dates, would suddenly bring a girlfriend home.
There was nothing wrong with knowing everything.
Christina thought to herself, "This matchmaking method is not bad. If they like each other, it will be the best for everyone. And if they don't, it won't be awkward, and Chris can also have another friend."
