Chapter 264

Lunch was very plentiful. Every dish on the table showed how good the Wilson family was to Natalie.

They were basically her favorite dishes.

The entire dining room was filled with smiles. Even the servants were smiling. With the old and the

young around, it was hard not to be happy

As the saying went, having an old man at home was like having a treasure.

Theo occasionally made a joke and teased Trevon and Jasper. Jasper couldn’t eat so well

independently yet and could always perform a few clumsy movements, causing everyone to laugh.

They all felt that he was very cute, not clumsy

However, the beautiful painting would always be disturbed by tactless people, such as those who came

uninvited or those who felt good about themselves.

“There are so many people. Why didn’t you call us when it’s so lively?” A sharp voice with a strange

tone came from the door.

Hearing this, no one turned around. However, everyone’s hand that was holding tableware paused for

a moment before returning to normal. The playfulness stopped.

After all, they did not welcome the owner of the voice in their hearts, so there was no way to fake a

welcome. Today’s lunch could be said to be hard-won. It was interrupted not long after it started. Even

Theo was dissatisfied.

As expected, Theo’s face darkened and he put down tableware heavily. There was no hint of welcome

in his tone. “Didn’t we agree to cancel the gathering in the future?”

“Cancel the gathering?”

Natalie turned her head and looked at Trevon inquiringly. The man who caught her gaze held her soft

little hand under the table tightly and tapped his palm twice to indicate that Theo was right.

After Max was disabled last time. Theo felt that the fake gathering was no longer meaningful. In

addition, Jasper would go to the Wilson’s residence. It was better to live separately

However, he did not expect the others to suddenly come today.

Peggy’s family felt that what happened last time was not as Trevon had said. It was just that there was

no evidence, so they gritted their teeth and swallowed. When they went to look for the female celebrity

from last time, she was unconscious and they could not ask her at all. The next day, Peggy went back

and said that she had already been discharged. In the end, she seemed to have disappeared. Many

people they sent out could not find this female celebrity.

The matter was very fishy, but there was no evidence

Even if she was unhappy, she could not flare up at Trevon This kind of loss made Peggy feel

suffocated.

Peggy’s tone was strange and did not find herself disturbing at all “Uncle, isn’t Max getting engaged? I

brought Emily here to get to know him. No matter what, we’re family Besides, Trevon is May’s savior

Everyone knew what the words ‘savior meant. Only Natalie did not know. She calculated in her heart

and felt that there were many things she

did not know

However, now was not the time to ask. He would talk about it tonight

From Peggy’s tone, she had a feeling that Max’s disability was more or less related to Trevon. She did

not know if it was her imagination.

“Emily?” Even with his back facing her, he knew that Emily was here. If he didn’t want to see her, he

would still meet her. Things that he didn’t want to see often happened the next second.

This was a terrifying law. It was just like when you were in primary school. One day, you would slack off

and not memorize. When the teacher in class said that he would test everyone’s self-discipline today,

you would say in your heart, “Don’t pick me. Don’t pick me. Don’t pick me.”

However, this kind of thing was so mysterious. In the next second, the teacher would definitely call you

out. You would wondered if the teacher had divination skills.

Trevon kept rubbing Natalie’s soft fingers under the table, as if to reassure her. Everyone at the table

had already stopped eating. Only Jasper continued to eat innocently, and the sound of his slurping was

heard.

He was eating happily and mouthful after mouthful. He would also laugh and say that the food was

delicious.

Rachel sat at the side and did not feel awkward at all. She even smiled. She liked her grandson’s

calmness

Jasper would ignore everything that had nothing to do with him.

Natalie looked at his son and thought of Trevon in a second. Could this calm and annoying look be

inherited?

Trevon was silent for a moment before answering. “So Peggy, are you here to thank me today?”

He turned around and added annoyingly. “You’re quite sincere. Why are your hands empty? Are you

thanking me verbally?”

Carlos sat down on the sofa and vented his anger on Jim who was sitting on the sofa “Since when is it

your turn to sit? You’re quite bold.”

Trevon had already stood up. He was filled with anger and dissatisfaction. He took a tissue and wiped it

before casually throwing it on the table “Grandpa Carlos, why do I feel that you’re not here to thank

me? You look like you’re here to find trouble”

How could Theo not see the coldness on his grandson’s body? Today was the first time he had officially

brought Natalie back for dinner. It was also the first time a man and woman in love met their parents.

The beautiful painting was definitely unhappy that it was interrupted. In addition, this grandson did not

know how to read people’s expressions. Other than Natalie, he probably would not restrain this hostility

from him.

Theo quickly stopped Trevon, afraid that he would show bad behavior in front of Jasper. “Trevon, sit

down” Then, he signaled Natalie with his

eyes.

Natalie was a little embarrassed after receiving the order, but she still held Trevon’s hand. When she

couldn’t remove her hand, she simply stood up whilst holding his hand.

He didn’t turn his head, but the dissatisfaction on his face clearly decreased. He reached out and took

her hand off his arm, interlocking their fingers.

This action was very eye catching. It pierced Emily, who had been standing in front of them and was

being hugged by Max. She was jealous, but she still pretended to congratulate her. “Congratulations,

Sis, for stepping into the Wilson family again.”

Upon hearing this, Theo’s expression darkened, but he still had a kind smile on his face. “Miss, you’re

an adult. It’s better to think before you speak. After all, trouble comes from the mouth.”

Emily was wearing a limited edition dress and carrying a limited edition bag. She was very confident.

“Grandpa Theo, I’m just congratulating Natalie. I don’t mean anything else.”

Although she said that she was congratulating Natalie, there was no hint of congratulations in her

words.

Theo did not reply. He only turned around and instructed Gage, “Serve coffee.”

Emily stood in the living room and felt that something was wrong, but there was no evidence.

Natalie: Why do I feel like the green coffee is stuck?

Trevon pulled Natalie to sit down beside Theo, ignoring the gazes of others. Then, he said to Jim, who

was still standing, “Sit, why are you standing? Do you still want to grow taller?”

Jim understood what Mr. Wilson meant. He immediately sat down in an armchair at the side. To him, all

he cared about was Natalie and Trevon. The others didn’t pay him so he didn’t care.

No, he had to listen to Theo. After all, Mr. Wilson couldn’t beat Theo.

This move was undoubtedly an embarrassment to Carlos face. A few minutes ago, Carlos had asked

Jim to stand up.

Carlos said to Trevon with a sullen expression, “When did the Wilson family become indiscriminate?”

Trevon crossed his legs and replied casually, “Grandpa Carlos, that’s not right. Jim is my assistant and

also my subordinate. Why is there no distinction between the top and bottom? The Wilson family is not

the palace, and this sofa is not a throne with gold trimmings. How is he not

allowed to sit on it?”

Carlos was rendered speechless

They had come with a purpose today, so Carlos no longer bothered about Jim. He originally just

wanted to establish the prestige of the host.

Peggy pulled Max and Emily to the side and sat down. He picked up a cup of coffee and took a sip. He

said to Emily beside him, “Emily, you’re about to marry over. The two of you are fated to be married into

the Wilson family. You have to learn from your sister in the future. If you don’t understand, ask”

Emily immediately pretended to be a good student. ‘Sis, please guide me in the future.”

Just as Natalie was about to speak, Rachel came over with Jasper in his arms. She walked towards the

sofa at the side and started talking before he even sat down. “Peggy, your future daughter in law’s

memory isn’t very good. I remember Natalie saying two years ago that her mother only gave birth to

one child. Why is she calling Natalie her sister? This shows that her IQ isn’t high. If you have nothing to

do, spend more time teaching her. How can she address Natalie wrongly?”

“They’re half sisters What else can she call her?” wondered Peggy.

“I can’t really just call her by name here, can I?” Emily complained inwardly

Ted did not come today. These words evoked a scene from two years ago. It was also the scene of

Rachel arguing with Emily. It was still Carlos who suppressed his anger and suggested, “Just call her

Natalie.”

*Things are so complicated in affluent families. I’d prefer things when they were simple, thought Jim

Emily gripped her bag lightly. Her nails dug into the leather bag. She gritted her teeth and called out,

“Natalie.”

Natalie didn’t stand on ceremony and replied very naturally, “Yes?”

Since Rachel was helping her, she could not act shyly. She had to act confidently.

Max’s eyes never left Natalie’s. He had completely forgotten that he had the lost ability to erect

It was not that Rachel did not notice that Max was looking at Natalie. She reminded Emily. “Don’t

address Natalie wrongly in the future. If you can’t remember it, you can write it on your palm. Jotting

things down always helps.”

Emily thought to himself, “I’m not a fool.”

As soon as Rachel finished speaking, she turned to Max and said, ‘Didn’t your mother teach you basic

manners? It’s a disease to stare at others when they’re not talking to you. Don’t let me see it a second

time.”

Only then did Max look away Carlos glared at his good-for-nothing grandson. They didn’t get any

advantages today, so why were they here?

Carlos went straight to the point. “Theo, look, Max is about to start a family. Get Trevon to arrange a

position for him in the Wilson Group Look..

Carlos’s eyes were filled with anticipation. He hoped that Trevon would agree. Now, the Wilson Group

was under Trevor’s control. Theo had completely let go.

Therefore, he was asking Trevon. However, he was asking Theo because he hoped that he could

persuade Trevon to relent

Natalie cursed in her heart. Max and Emily were really compatible. They were both unemployed.

After a while, Trevon said, “Alright, the Wilson Group has been recruiting a large number of salesmen

recently. Why don’t we let Max try? I wonder if Grandpa Carlos will be willing”

Carlos was rendered speechless

Peggy was definitely unwilling. How could her son be a salesperson? This would definitely not be good

Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm

if word got out. They would definitely be laughed at if Max became a salesman.

Rachel only played with Jasper the entire time and did not participate in his son’s company’s decision.

It was as if she did not hear it. Natalie. was very grateful that Rachel protected her in front of them. She

felt warm inside.

Peggy said again, “Trevon, Max is the second eldest son of the Wilson family. It’s inevitable that he will

be laughed at if he goes out to be a salesperson. Why don’t you arrange a manager or a vice president

for him?*

“That works too. Max, what are you good at?”

“I’m good at playing with women. However, that’s not possible now, given my situation,” thought Max.

He didn’t dare speak that out loud in public. Instead, he said, “I haven’t recovered yet. I’ll rest for a little

longer.”

As soon as he said this, be it Trevon or Natalie, they all shook their heads in their hearts. The entire

family was working hard to get a position, but in the end, they were unwilling and directly rejected.

What a joke.

Emily didn’t feel good. Why could Trevon get the highest position in the Wilson Group while Max

couldn’t enter the company? However, she couldn’t say it now After all, they weren’t engaged yet.

There wasn’t even an official announcement

Carlos looked at his grandson’s ashen face and felt suffocated. His tone softened. “Then you can wait

for Max to get better.”

Trevon replied faintly, “Okay”

Who asked the Wilson family to have such a lousy rule? The eldest son inherited the Wilson family’s

company, and the collateral relatives could only take the company’s dividends and not compete with

the eldest son. They could not fight in secret. This was the most infuriating point for Carlos and his

family.

Peggy’s gaze was fixed on Jasper. Seeing that Trevon had agreed, she began to praise him. “This child

is really beautiful. Natalie went overseas for so long to give birth, right? Why didn’t you stay to give

birth? You’ve already married into the family, so why are you still being on independent woman?”

Natalie didn’t like this theory. What did it mean to not need a job after marrying into the family? “Aunt

Peggy, I have a job.”

Peggy couldn’t stop once she got started. “How much money can you earn from that job of yours every

day? You might as well stay at home and take good care of the child. Let Trevon give you pocket

money”

Natalie felt that it was impossible to chat with such a person. “Everyone’s way of working is different.

Some people like to be self-sufficient at work, some like to be a mistress who reaps benefits without

working and some like money from the sky. I think my job is quite good. Not to mention how much I

earn, at least I feel at ease using the money I earn

Theo, who had been quietly drinking coffee, spake up. He nodded in agreement and smiled “Girl,

you’re right. A person’s life has to be worth living. I agree with you. Your mother and I will take care of

Jasper. Don’t worry and focus on your career”

Peggy didn’t know what to say.

Emily clearly felt that Natalie was implying her “Mistress? Gain without working? I just don’t have a job.

So what if Max and I don’t work? It’s not like we’re going to starve.”

Rachel took a tissue and wiped Jasper’s hand. He said calmly, “You two take the child to take a nap.”

Upon hearing this, Trevon stood up and picked up Jasper from the sofa. He held Natalie’s hand and

went upstairs, leaving them to continue fighting downstairs.

Peggy pretended to be envious and said, “Rachel, you’re really lucky to have such a grandson. Sigh, I

wonder when Max will have a child.”

Rachel replied casually. “If Max kept his children, he can start a kindergarten all by himself.”

Peggy felt that she couldn’t continue this conversation anymore.

Emily was angry that her mother-in-law lost in the argument.

Theo pursed his lips and drank coffee. It was as if he did not hear the sabers and swords in the living

room. He was not affected at all and was in a good mood.
