Chapter 173
After Paige complained about Joseph to Abbie, she started to send resumes in an attempt to look for a job again. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
During this period of time, she visited more than a dozen companies, and they all rejected her without exception.
Seeing that Paige had started to send resumes again, Abbie couldn't stand it anymore.
"What the hell are you thinking? Why do you want a job so badly, Paige? We are still considered girls from wealthy families! What can those small amounts of salary do for you? Get you a pair of shoes?"
Abbie's words were direct and straightforward. She didn't bother to be subtle at this point.
"It's not that I want or need a job badly. I just don't want to waste my time every day doing nothing. At least working will make me productive, you know," Paige explained.
"But you have been rejected so many times! Are you not embarrassed? Why not be your
own boss instead?"
"Being a boss is not cut out for me. I only like to design, and everything else is not of my interest", Paige sighed.
"Paige, no offense, but you should at least learn how to manage the company! Your parents only have you, so the company will naturally be yours! If you don't take over, who will?"
"You're wrong. My mother only has one daughter, but my father has me and one more daughter, Sophia Martin, doesn't he?" Paige sneered.
"Sophia and Isabella are already chased away by your father. And he's not so dumb to hand over the company to Sophia. Even if he did, without your permission he wouldn't be able to do that right? You have a majority of the share! You should really learn!"
"The company can be handed over to the professional managers to take care of it. I really have no interest in doing business", Paige replied.
"Not all managers are loyal to their employers. If you meet someone bad, you'll be in trouble", Abbie said, not giving up on persuading Paige to learn how to run the company.
However, Paige wouldn't listen no matter what. Abbie was mad and she picked up her phone to play some games.
The moment she switched on her phone, she yelled, "Paige! Sh*t has gone down! What the hell!"
"What's wrong?" Paige looked at Abbie in confusion.
"Isabella is pregnant! Your father is accompanying her at the maternity check-up. Look at the headline! Having a son at such an old age? What bullsh*t is this?"
Paige was stunned for a moment and then she grabbed the phone from Abbie's hand.
The headlines were eye-catching indeed.
'Mr. Liam Anderson, president of the Central South Group, is having a son at age 60.'
It was mentioned in the news that Liam Anderson of the Central South Group was spotted at the hospital with a middle-aged woman. It was later found out that she was his girlfriend and that she was pregnant!
The news was also accompanied by pictures of Liam carefully helping Isabella out of the hospital, followed by Sophia.
Paige stared at the news and read it a few times. The expression on her face turned into disbelief.
"Paige, what should we do now?"
"I have to go back and have a look!" Paige stood up.
"I'll go with you!"
In the Anderson family, Isabella and her daughter finally got their wish and they were once again able to go back to the Anderson family.
Unlike the previous two times when they entered the Anderson family, this time it was not them who came on their own. It was Liam who brought them back.
Liam was overjoyed by the thought of having a son soon. He carefully helped Isabella into the villa.
Looking at how Liam was treating Isabella this time, a flash of sarcasm crossed Sophia's face.
After they arrived at the hospital, the first thing Liam did was to ask the doctor to check the gender of the baby.
