"Uncle refused to do the appraisal." His tone was so plain that he could not hear any ups and downs.
Emily Aitken couldn't accept it anymore, her angry cheeks bulged: "Why? Isn't grandma suspicious? If the appraisal results come out, the truth will come to light, and my aunt doesn't have to suffer injustice."
George Smith shook his head, not knowing what he was thinking, as if he was telling an irrelevant story: "Because my uncle has a guilty conscience, he snatched this woman, and he can deceive his child as his own if he doesn’t appraise it. What if it’s not his?"
For a while, she didn't know whether to hate her uncle's ignorance and greed, or to sympathize with her aunt and Rebecca.
"For this reason, grandma has never liked them?" she asked again.
If you can know where the Anderson family's problem is, you can help Rebecca solve it.
George Smith nodded: "It also has something to do with my uncle who has been out there all these years. Grandma has always wanted to replace my uncle with a more capable wife."
"What kind of person!" Emily Aitken was filled with indignation, and she couldn't stop pacing back and forth for a moment: "They grabbed it, and you don't want it after you grab it. How can this be true."
George Smith squinted his eyes and regretted telling Emily Aitken.
She looked angrily, as if she was going to Su's house in the next second to beg Rebecca Cunningham!
George Smith calmed down a few words, her emotions gradually eased, and the topic completely changed.
Because of the Anderson family's affairs, she would lick her wounds alone and leave her behind. When Rebecca Cunningham called to ask her how she was thinking the next day, she hesitated and said that she wanted to stay for a few more days.
No, Rebecca Cunningham exhorted a few words and hung up the phone.
She didn't choose to go to work, and drove to the beach by touching her belly.
The beach in summer was extremely hot, and few people came to the beach in the morning. She sat alone on the beach, her skin was scorching by the sun, and she turned a deaf ear to her ears.
The driver Sutherland couldn't stand it anymore and took out a sun umbrella from the car. He ran to her silently, supporting her in the shade.
Emily Aitken looked up, and she looked at the driver.
Sutherland looked ahead without saying a word. Thinking of George Smith's words, she felt relieved and buried her head in her arms.
After a long time, the sun got bigger and bigger, she got up and asked, "Do you know where there is a river nearby?"
Sutherland shook his head, but he still didn't say a word.
Mountains and rivers, the motherland is great rivers and mountains, she has seen it, but the child hasn't!
She was taken away by George Smith before the last baby could be sentimental; this time, she had enough time to mourn the spring and fall, and the mother's love was overflowing in her heart, and she was reluctant to have not seen the child in the night and day.
At this time, the phone rang, and Emily Aitken thought about turning it off.
Soon after, Sutherland's phone rang, and he connected.
"Well, good, good."
After that, the phone was hung up, and Sutherland said to her: "Mr. Smith said there is a reception tonight and he needs you to attend."
"Then, go back!"
The sea breeze messed up her hair, and Emily Aitken gathered her hair and said softly.
Back at the company, George Smith has prepared the evening gown and asked Arlo Hunter to send it to her.
The neckline and back of the dress are still very conservative, every time I rack my brains on pleats, patterns and inlays, this is also the consistent style that George Smith wears to her.
Except that the waist is a little tight, there are no other problems.
Emily Aitken knew what was the reason, and said with a smile: "The food is so good these days, maybe I have gained weight!"
Arlo Hunter didn't know what to say, so he looked at Juliet next to him.
Juliet glared at him: "Mr. Aitken said he is young, what do you think of me?"
"But, it's too late to change it now." As he said, it seemed a little wronged, and then he muttered softly: "This is from the hands of an international designer."
Emily Aitken smiled and said, "It's okay, it's just a little bit smaller."
In order not to appear fat at the reception, Emily Aitken only drank some vegetable soup at noon and afternoon.
As night fell, Sutherland slowly drove to the hotel, Emily Aitken felt a little uncomfortable, and she had to leaning against the backrest paralyzed by Ge You.
George Smith pursed his lips: "Why don't you tell me when you are young?"
"It's not you yet, let me know that there is a dinner party earlier, so that there will be no temporary problems." Emily Aitken said angrily.
George Smith chuckled: "I also received the notice today. The dress was made by a designer a few months ago. Can this be blamed on me?"
Emily Aitken let out a long sigh of relief. She took a look at George Smith and complained: "Then you are even more to blame. Customize the dress so long in advance. What if I gain weight during this period?"
Regarding her unreasonable mood, George Smith chose to accept it, and he stopped arguing for Emily Aitken's complaints.
After a while, Emily Aitken consciously said boring, and looked out the window nonchalantly.
The car stopped at the door of the hotel. Sutherland turned off and got out of the car, and opened the door for Emily Aitken in a half circle around the car. She stayed in the car for an extra second, squeezing a smile and got out of the car slowly.
The two of them just walked into the hall and immediately became the focus of the audience. Emily Aitken wore a white dress as if a fairy was descending from the earth, and the man next to her shone brightly.
The people around them unconsciously turned their gazes at them. The women looked at which dress Emily Aitken was wearing, what eye shadow he was using, whether the face and neck were two colors, and whether the makeup was stiff or not.
Finally, compare her shortcomings with her own advantages.
And the men, with more admiring gazes, touched George Smith, and then quickly withdrew their gazes in fright.
Emily Aitken habitually scans around looking for a figure he is familiar with.
Not long after, she saw sisters Rebecca Cunningham and Charlotte Anderson returning from the corridor to the hall. She whispered a few words in George Smith's ear. As she was about to pass, she was suddenly blocked by others.
The man smiled and held a glass of red wine without a smile: "George you and Ms. Aitken are here too! I thought this little wine would not be able to invite you!"
Emily Aitken frowned. She really didn't like the person in front of her.
George Smith made a few polite words to him, and he changed his mind: "Ms. Aitken, I was in a hurry last time. I didn't invite you and George to sit down for a cup of tea. Today, you can enjoy your face and have a drink at the bar."
"Sorry, I am not well today and can't drink alcohol." Emily Aitken declined.
Unexpectedly, he turned out to be an ignorant, Jie Jie laughed strangely: "Is it right that you will look down on me as a small person by climbing up to George !"
"James Paterson, don't be okay with anything!" George Smith frowned, his face already showing displeasure.
The man in front of him was James Paterson, a relative who couldn't beat him. He made a smile: "My cousin just made a joke with Ms. Aitken, so forget it if you don't like it."
After speaking, James Paterson left in anguish.
Rebecca Cunningham beckoned to her from a distance, Emily Aitken was hesitating whether to go there, and Amy Campbell walked in from the door.
"Why does Rebecca mix with her?"
Amy Campbell saw Emily Aitken at a glance, strode happily to her side, and naturally saw Rebecca Cunningham not far away.
Emily Aitken shook her head.
When I asked, I realized that after Rosie Henderson 's downfall, someone took the opportunity to take over her foundation. To put it bluntly, this is a charity party, and naturally there are leading giants from all walks of life.
The Anderson Group, as a large company with a reputation for Sunning , is invited to say that it is not surprising!
As for why Rebecca Cunningham and Charlotte Anderson appeared together, it probably has something to do with the Anderson family.
"Emily, Charlotte can't see her, let me take her at home, don't be angry!" Rebecca Cunningham explained.
