Chapter 372
Kyle looked at Edward and knew that he did not intend to explain. As long as it was something he did
not intend to say, there was no point in asking
He was just concerned and a little curious. Recently, there seemed to be something interesting in
Edward’s life. It was purely
out of curiosity
Speaking of curiosity, Kyle asked again. “Why is your car at Athana Hospital? I spent a lot of effort
driving it out this morning. The Porsche beside your car is parked close to yours. It’s only less than an
inch away from your car”
Hearing this, Edward smiled. What would Kyle think if he told Kyle that he crawled out in the morning?
With a smule, Edward lifted his eyebrows and asked, “How did you get into the driver’s seat?”
Speaking of this, Kyle was speechless. I called the tow company to move the car this morning, but no
one answered. I didn’t have any choice. The car was parked like this, and the owner didn’t answer the
call. That person is really rude. In the end, I climbed in from the front passenger seat.”
The car was under Frank’s name, and Frank was still flying home. He couldn’t answer the call.
Kyle had also called many times, but the call had not gone through. He was so pissed off that he was
still annoyed even now.
Hearing this, Edward choked on his cigarette. “Ahem, ahem, ahem. Maybe the driver of that car is
trying to test your driving
skill
Kyle replied without even thinking. “Forget it. That person is likely a ‘road killer’ who doesn’t know how
to estimate the distance between cars.”
Edward didn’t say anything. He just smiled faintly. Kyle had guessed correctly. Rose was indeed a
ruthless driver.
After smoking a cigarette, he put it out and threw it into the trash can in the car. Ile turned on his phone
to look at the time. A notification came in. It was a friend request from the account named “Pistachio’s
Gratitude”
His fingers were faster than his brain, and he accepted the friend request. The profile picture was a
pistachio, and its biography was the happiest pistachios in the world.
Her posts were mainly about interesting things about herself. It did not reflect her family situation. It
could be said to be very low-key. It was just like an ordinary girl sharing her happiness and recording
her beautiful life.
The man, who was never interested in scrolling through people’s posts, looked through hers, leaned
against the passenger seat, and swiped his phone. Kyle glanced at it. It was strange, but he did not say
anything and focused on driving
Rose sent him a thank-you message before he could finish flipping through posts. [Thank you for your
help this morning.]
“Help? What kind of word was that?”
He subconsciously muttered that. Kyle, who was beside him, did not hear him. He thought Edward was
talking to him and asked, “What?”
Edward sat up straight and exercised his neck. “Nothing. I’m just reading the news.”
Kyle did not doubt Edward’s words because Edward liked to read the news.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtEdward replied politely. It’s nothing.]
Rose was puzzled. Mr. Landor, why were you in the hospital? Are you feeling discomfort in your
stomach again?]
Edward’s reply was simple. [Yes]
Rose replied politely. [Thank you again. I’ll treat you to a meal another day. I owe you twice.]
This time, Edward did not dissociate himself from the previous help he provided her. (Don’t take it to
heart. Besides, you’re Sherri’s friend]
Rose replied, [Okay.]
Edward was at a loss for words.
At the same time, in the Roberts Group…
A man in a casual shirt was sitting in the CEO’s office. He looked out of place, but his temperament
resembled their boss.
It was mainly because he had an abstinent and cold face. He looked difficult to get along with and
oppressive.
Exhausted, Frank leaned against William’s seat and took a nap. He turned the chair around, and the
secretary came in after a while. When the secretary opened the door, she was not surprised to see
Frank because Grace had already told her beforehand
קוט
The
secretary sized
Frank’s facial features. His features were well-defined, and looked a little like Grace. She said gently.
“Mr. Roberts, this is the document Grace instructed you to sign on her behalf. This is the authorization
letter”
Frank opened his tired eyes and did not even look at the secretary before him. He fixed his gaze on the
Party A column on the paper and said indifferently. “Bring everything all at once?
The secretary understood his meaning and responded respectfully, “Everything is here. I won’t make
you sign twice. I work under Grace. You can believe in my ability to do my job. Don’t worry.”
Frank didn’t answer this. He wasn’t here to that but to sign.
That was why he liked to stay at Lithern Club for so many years. Now, he chose to stay at the dock.
Signing documents and dealing with secretaries was not something he liked to do.
After the documents were signed, the secretary tactfully left the office.
He wanted to sleep, but Frank telt that he could not fall asleep in such an environment. He did not
know if Ava had already recovered. He wanted to call her, but he was afraid that she was still sleeping.
After thinking about it, he stuffed his phone into his pocket
He stood up and strode out of the CEO’s office. The secretary in the office was mesmerized by his tall
figure and perfect body proportions, especially his handsome-looking face. Frank was her type of man
A secretary gossiped, “Miss, is this man Mr Roberts’s son? He is handsome”
The head of the secretary was Grace’s secretary. She was Grace’s favorite staff and knew her limits.
Grace liked people who knew their limits. So, she promoted the secretary to the head of the
secretaries.
Hearing the discussions of her subordinates, the head secretary frowned in dissatisfaction and said
coldly. “Did the Roberts Group employ you to gossip? If you have too much free time, you can submit
your resignation to the Human Resources Department. Without you, the Roberts Group will still be able
to operate.”
The secretary who had just babbled lowered her head to admit her mistake. Her face turned pale. “I’m
sorry.”
Grace taught the head secretary how to work. Her style of doing things would definitely be similar to
Grace’s. “This month’s bonus will be deducted from your salary. Think twice before you speak in the
future.
The secretary who spoke slumped in her chair. It was not worth losing a month’s bonus because of one
sentence. If she had known earlier, she would not have been captivated. Her money was more
important.
“Are you a fool? How dare you say that before the head secretary”
The secretary felt aggrieved She was just trying to praise Frank. I spoke before I could think. Mr.
Roberts is handsome. He is like a celebrity. Yet I can’t even praise him.”
“You have lost your bonus for the month, haven’t you? Don’t you know who she is working under? I
really can’t understand why you did that.”
Recently, Sherri had been living the life of the empress every day. She almost even had her chefs.
Hackett had been looking after her by her side every day.
In the end. Rose had a meal with Natalie When she got off work, Rose went to the canteen to get food.
The food she got was all that Natalie would eat. She didn’t even get to eat crabis, even if she wanted
to. She was afraid that Natalie would drool if she ate before her, so she decided not to eat it herself.
Rose took out the dishes and placed them on the table. I bought you spaghetti bolognese. Replenish
your energy. Is there anything else you want to eat?”
Recently, Natalie discovered that there was a particularly meticulous mind under Rose’s carefree
appearance. One could only discover the other side of her after close contact “Rose I think you’re quite
a nice woman. If any man gets to marry you, he will definitely be the happiest husband of all.”
Rose combed her hair and said proudly, “Of course. Who am P Let’s see who would have such good
taste. I don’t fancy ordinary men”
Halfway through her meal, Frank called. She didn’t put down her fork and answered the call with one
hand “My dear brother, you’re back. You finally remember that you have a pitiful and lonely sister”
Frank ignored her words. “Have you eaten lunch? I’m here to pick you up.”
Suddenly, the food in her bowl was no longer fragrant. She scolded Frank in her heart on purpose. He
called her on purpose after she got her lunch. Was he trying to take her on a meal? “If you had called
earlier, I might have already eaten dinner. Did you call at this hour on purpose
When Frank heard that, he knew that he was late. “Tm hanging up. I’ll go home after work”.
After hanging up. Rose even scolded Frank. Natalie casually asked, “Is your brother on a business
trip?”
Didn’t he ask them about Ava last night?
“Yes, he went to Sapphire City last night and returned in the morning. Grace couldn’t get through to
him, so he called me.
He returned because he had a document to sign on behalf of Grace. Besides, Grace and William
haven’t been around for the past few days. Someone has to take care of the company.
“My brother is quite busy. Forget it. I’ll forgive him since he is having a tough time now.”
Natalie estimated the time deep down. Ava had a fever. He flew over and rushed back in the wee hours
of the morning.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThere was no doubt about his love for Ava.
Natalie agreed with what Rose sail. The Roberts family was different from the other three families.
William and Grace were loyal people who could not bear to abandon their friends, who had suffered
difficult times with them.
William and Grace employed them even if they might not be highly educated. So, their family business
was more challenging to manage than the other families. They had to have someone oppressive to
deal with some trivial daily
matters.
She had never seen William and Grace before, but she could guess they were more intimidating than
Rachel. Otherwise, how could they lead so many subordinates?
Rose hummed a song. The bag was not properly carried on her shoulder. It was draped on her
shoulder.
Frank sat on the sofa and frowned. He could not stop nagging. “If you think the bag is an eyesore, you
can choose not to use it like Trevon’s wife”
“No. I still have to use it. As for how I use it, isn’t that my freedom? You are skeptical. I can tell. If Ava
uses her bag as a skateboard under her feet, you might even remind her to be careful Am I wrong?”
Rose was confident in her guess of her brother’s double-standard reaction.
Although she was telling the truth, Frank imagined Ava stepping on the bag in his mind. He really
wouldn’t say anything-
Yet he answered calmly, “Why are there so many packages at the villa’s entrance? Did you
buy thirty of them?”
Frank’s tone was already a little cold. The last time Rose opened the package, he had told her not to
buy lavishly.
It was sent directly to the door of the Roberts family. A few lackeys moved them in together. The
couriers could not enter the Roberts family’s place.
Speaking of this. Rose’s eyes lit up. How could she have forgotten about this? “I bought those through
the overseas website. It’s just that this platform is a little fraudulent. When I placed the order, it had the
stock. Two days after I paid for the items, they told me they had no stock. At that time, I wanted a
refund, but I liked the items 1 bought. Besides, I bought two pairs of shoes for you. If I returned the
goods, it would be insincere. It wasn’t easy for the items to cross the sea and only arrive now Are you
touched I’m such a good sister Treat ine better in the future.”
Frank did not want to respond to his sister’s boasting and exaggerated acting skills. He exposed her
mercilessly. “You adiled the shoes into your cart to get a discount, didn’t you?”
Rose, who was immediately exposed, did what she usually did. She quickly shook her hand in an
attempt to hide her guilt. “Of course not. Am I such a person? Of course not. Your misunderstanding of
me is too deep.”
She started to change the topic. “By the way, when are Grace and William coming back?”
Frank had already seen through his sister’s guilty reaction and iconic lie. He did not intend to continue
exposing her. He answered lazily. “They will be home at 10 p.m
“Do you think Grace will bring me a gift? What will it be?”
Frank got up and tidied lus clothes. He took his phone and went straight upstairs. Behind him, Rose’s
voice sounded. “Aren’t you going to open the packages with me?”
“I’m not as free as you are.”
Rose said. “You don’t seem busy now. Let’s open it together. Don’t you want to see what shoes I
bought for you and test out of they fit?”
His sister’s nagging still made him stop. “Leave it aside.”
“Okay, I’ll help you unpack it and put it in the living room.”
