Chapter 1878
Old Madam Amery was obviously unhappy.
Bill didn't want to make her unhappy, so he turned to Abby and asked, "Abby, what do you think?"
Hearing this, Abby lowered her head and replied softly, "I will listen to the family arrangements!"
When she heard the word "family", Old Madam Amery's heart was touched. She could not help but continue, "Abby is the young lady of our Amery family. Although she is not the real blood of the Amery family, she has grown up in the Amery family since she was a child. She also changed her surname a long time ago. Now it is reasonable for her to work in the Amery's Group! She is my favorite grandniece. Others don't care about her. I have to!"
Bill pondered for a while.
He glanced at Old Master Amery, who nodded slightly at him. So Bill nodded and said, "All right! How about this? There's no deputy general manager in the Marketing Department. I'll ask my secretary to arrange it tomorrow. Let Abby go there and get familiar with it first. What do you think?"
Old Madam Amery finally showed a satisfied smile. "Okay, that's settled!" Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
Abby's eyes were slightly red, and she said very touchedly, "Thank you, uncle. Thank you, grandaunt!"
The door of the bedroom on the second floor was closed. Lin reached out to take over her husband's suit jacket.
On the matter about Abby, Old Madam Amery had a lot of resentment for Lin. After all, it was in the past. Besides, Susan was an outsider, while Abby was from the Amery Family.
The fact that Lin had helped Susan clear her name was a fatal blow to Abby.
When Lin just went upstairs, Old Madam Amery gave her a hard look.
Bill felt very guilty. "Lin, you know mother's temper very well. No matter what she says or does, you don't have to care about it. You don't have to take it to heart!"
Lin smiled and replied, "Yes!"
She did not regret it at all.
This was her promise to Tina. Although she would care about Abby, she didn't want to go against her conscience a second time.
As for Old Madam Amery, Lin had long been accustomed to it. Over the years, she had already figured out the way of getting along with her mother-in-law. She just needed to ignored her, and pretended to be stupid.
Thinking of the conversation downstairs just now, Lin looked up and asked, "Bill, are you really going to let Abby work in the Amery's Group?"
Bill sighed. "You've seen my mom's attitude. I can't go against her face to face. Besides, since Abby grew up in the Amery family, we have to be responsible for her. But I think it's too hard for girls to work in the business world!"
Now that the fashion circle was in an uproar, Abby could no longer continue to do fashion design. At this time, the Amery family would naturally not let her go.
It was also a solution to let her work in the Amery's Group.
Bill paused for a while and frowned gently. "By the way, Lin, there is one thing I want to discuss with you. My mother has mentioned more than once that she wanted us to adopt Abby as our daughter,
but we didn't agree. Now we have been thinking about taking Tina back. Abby won't think too much about it, will she?"
Lin was lost in thought.
In addition to feeling that it was unnecessary to Adopt Abby as a daughter, the couple also considered her biological parents. If they adopted Abby as a daughter, they would always feel like taking someone else's daughter away. After all, the kindness of giving birth was greater than that of raising.
Therefore, they refused to adopt her.
Bill smiled gracefully and shook his head with a sigh. "I don't think so. Abby has been sensible and simple-minded since she was a child!"
Lin remained silent.
She would have thought so in the past.
However, ever since the incident of Abby keeping imposters, she had changed her mind. Would a person, who calmly enjoyed the fruit of others' hardworking, be simple-minded?
...
At dusk.
Desmond, dressed in a red suit and with his eye-catching curly hair, walked slowly into the auction house with a naughty smile on his face.
He had successfully attracted many people's attention. His look was even more arrogant as he enjoyed the salute.
He arrived more than ten minutes earlier. The auction had not began, and guests came in one after another.
When Desmond noticed the person sitting on the couch outside, his eyes lit up. He immediately walked over. "Eh? Lil Tina!"
Hearing this, Tina turned around and was surprised to see Desmond. "Lil President Chin!"
She hadn't seen Desmond for quite some time.
Desmond took the initiative to ask, "You came with my second cousin, didn't you? Where's he?"
When he saw her appear here, he knew the reason in his heart. Wilson also received an invitation to this auction.
Tina nodded with a smile. "Yes, he went to the bathroom!"
Desmond held back the impulsion of rolling his eyes. It was as he had expected.
Tina looked at the radiant Desmond and couldn't help saying, "Lil President Chin, I haven't seen you for a long time. Why do you seem to be tanned?"
"Don't mention it. I went on a business trip to Southeast Asia. The katoey there are much scarier than the sun. I almost didn't come back! It's all my fault for being so charming!" Desmond shook his leg in a cocky manner.
Then he sat down on the sofa next to her and said with a snicker, "Lil Tina, you haven't seen me for a long time. Do you miss me?"
"Yes!" Tina nodded slightly.
They hadn't seen each other for a long time. She indeed missed him. She treated Desmond as a friend.
Out of the corner of her eyes, she saw Wilson walking over.
Tina added, "Ahem, because I am your cousin-in-law!"
Desmond was helpless.
Wilson raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Desmond. "Have you forgotten to call her cousin- in-law? Show your respect!"
The corners of Desmond's mouth twitched.
He shut his mouth tightly and stubbornly.
At this time, the elevator door opened again, and Abby walked out slowly.
She wore a beige windbreaker, with a suit inside, and a pair of high-heeled shoes. She was dressed differently from her usual style. She looked dignified and elegant, but also capable.
Behind her were two employees of the Amery's Group.
Tina and Wilson looked at each other and showed a helpless expression.
Desmond didn't know the deeper meaning behind the expression. He thought that the two of them were staring at each other with affection. He went forward to stop them. "Let's go! The auction is about to begin!"
They entered the Auction Room.
At the beginning of the auction, the auctioneer's voice echoed through the whole auction house through the microphone.
Desmond's seat was behind them, and Abby was in the front.
She swept away the depression of the previous crisis and became the deputy general manager of Amery's Group. Her eyes and brows were full of momentum.
Tina looked away lightly.
She was here with Wilson, so she was not interested in the auction. However, it was quite interesting to see the items being sold in the way of auction.
On the stage, the auctioneer took another new item.
It was a ruby necklace.
