Chapter 350
In the face of Zoey's coquettish tone, Samuel never refused any of her requests. Thus, he subconsciously replied, "Okay, it's up to you." "Thank you, Samuel!"
Lucille was so happy that she gave him a sweet kiss.
Three Temesina kene
After hanging up the phone, Samuel looked at the pile of documents in front of his desk and threw the pen in his hand away irritably.
That day, all the important collaborations that he had discussed before had been suddenly canceled, and even the two ongoing projects had issues. The huge pile of work he had to do in the company left him busy and exhausted.
He had thought that Zoey would be concerned about him over the phone. Unexpectedly, she only made another request to him.
Samuel shook his head. He pressed a button on the landline in front of him, and the assistant immediately pushed the door open and entered. "What can I do for you, Mr. Samuel?"
An hour later...
Just as she had requested, Zoey was invited onto the show.
In three days, she would join the show as a special guest.
Zoey was full of smiles and ambition.
She was confident that she could climb her way up. She was also certain that she could shine. brightly and be fawned over by tens of thousands of people. She wanted to see how Lucille would compete with her when the time came.noveldrama
Meanwhile, in the Melling family...
That day, Fiona was in a bad mood because she failed to arrest Lucille on the grounds of practicing without a license. Everyone was pissing her off.
When the servant was serving her coffee, she accidentally spilled a bit of it, causing Fiona to immediately give the servant a few beatings. Then she raised her chin and condescendingly ordered, "Kneel on the ground and crawl out!" While injured, the servant knelt on the ground and crawled out bit by bit.
The supervisor of Shein City as well as the patriarch of the Melling family, Hogan, walked in from outside. Seeing the scene in front of him, he ignored the servant on the ground and walked to Fiona. He asked, "Who made you angry?" Fiona didn't say anything, but her expression was one of grievance.
expression was one of grievance.
Hogan sat down on the sofa, pointed at his subordinates, and said, "You guys, tell me.
Doesn't Like Her
His men nodded and bowed, then quickly told him what had happened in the hospital earlier that day.
Hogan was surprised when he heard that. "That was the girl who treated Master Gilbert last time? I couldn't tell. She's young, but she is quite capable."
"Are you praising her, Dad?"
When Fiona heard that, she immediately felt dissatisfied.
Hogan laughed out loud. "Since my precious daughter doesn't like her, I'll come up with a reason to kill her."
He spoke so nonchalantly as if he was the king of the world who didn't care about the death of a tiny ant.
Fiona looked a little better, but she had thought about it before. If it were anyone else, all she had to do was snap her fingers to make someone disappear. However, Lucille was Joseph's fiance.
No matter how powerful the Melling family was, they could not mess with the Collins family.
She didn't have the guts to do something like that behind Joseph's back, either.
Hogan had obviously thought of that as well. He muttered to himself, "Since she's Mr. Joseph's fiance, then we must make a long-term plan. We shouldn't act rashly. It's just a marriage agreement, though. There are lots of ways to abolish it." Hogan joked, "You're a smart girl, Fiona. I'm sure you don't need me to teach you things like this, do you?"
Fiona's eyes glittered as she made up her mind.
"Don't worry, Dad. I have an idea."
Ever since she was young, she had always gotten everything she wanted.
No one could stop her!
She was determined to be the young lady of the Collins family.
The next day...
Fiona brought a lot of gifts and precious medicinal herbs to visit Madam Collins at the Collins Manor.
The two families were close.
Doesn't Like He
Fiona came uninvited The servant went in to inform Madam Collins before letting her in.
After entering, Fiona passed through the long courtyard. Madam Collins was basking in the
sun.
Fiona walked over with a sweet smile. "Grandma I'm here to see you."
"Oh, it's you, Fiona. You've really grown up. You look much more beautiful than before."
Madam Collins grinned. She looked kind and graceful.
Fiona wanted to get closer, so he told someone to set down all the gifts and herbs. She said, Grandma, I know that your legs have been hurting for a while. I specially asked someone to get these herbs. They're good for your legs."
"I'm sorry to make you go through all this trouble, but my leg has recovered. It doesn't hurt at all, aside from the fact that it's a little inconvenient for me to walk."
Madam Collins smiled. She didn't hide anything and even proudly declared, "My granddaughter-in-law cured me. I didn't expect her to be so medically skilled despite her young age!
The smile on Fiona's face froze.
Lucille had even managed to win Madam Collins over in such a short time.
"Haha, that's great." Fiona lowered her eyes to hide the resentment in them.
Madam Collins' expression did not change. She continued to smile and said, "So, I can't even use these herbs. You'd better take them back and let your grandfather have them. I remember that your grandfather got seriously ill last time. I wonder if he's recovered yet." "He's almost fully recovered. Thank you for your concern, Grandma."
Fiona didn't stay for long. She quickly found an excuse to leave.
However, she left all the precious herbs behind.
Madam Collins threw some fish food into the water and slowly muttered, "Get someone to send these things back to the Melling family. Tell them that we appreciate the gesture." "Yes."
The servants behind her immediately went to do so..
Eva pushed Madam Collins' wheelchair and asked, "What was Miss Melling trying to do, Madam Collins?"
When to Back Off
When to Back Off
The Old Madame smiled with an unclear meaning, and her expression was a little cold. "What else could she be trying to do? She's trying to use me to get what she wants. She wanted to see how I acted toward my granddaughter-in-law." Fiona had hidden her feelings very well. She was polite, and she knew when to back off.
Madam Collins wasn't some average person, though.
Fiona's true intentions couldn't be hidden in front of her.
Madam Collins sighed and looked at the fish scrambling to eat in the water. She couldn't help but say, "There's only one thing I'm worried about right now."
