Chapter 2 89: You don’t have to flatter me.
Although Enzo didn’t like her, he treated her very well. However, later her sadness was amplified and she had even forgotten how well he had treated her in the past.
Sabrina smiled helplessly.
– I really don’t know who he’s after. He clearly has good intentions, but he has such a venomous mouth. It would be better if he didn’t speak.
Roxane lowered her head and smiled. Then, she suddenly asked:
-Mom, if I fell in love with a divorced man with a child, would you really object?
– This …
Sabrina’s movements stopped. For a moment, she didn’t know what to say.
As a woman, she naturally knew that there was nothing wrong with being divorced or having children outside of marriage. However, when she thought that her son was raising another man’s child, she couldn’t help but feel uncomfortable. Even though she usually scolded her son, she felt like he deserved better.
– Mom, between marrying a woman with a child and remaining single forever, which do you prefer? She asked again.
Sabrina frowned.
-Of course, I would prefer him to be with this woman…
After all, she was worried that her son would be alone in his old age with no one to accompany him.
Roxane laughed.
– So. At least he’s not single anymore. What are you worried about?
Sabrina looked at her.
– My child !
…
Upstairs in the office.
Joel put down his brush and let Sebastien look at his writing.
– How is it?
“Excellent,” Sebastien said briefly. He really didn’t know how to say words of flattery. After all, he was usually the one who was flattered. However, facing his father-in-law, he still had to show goodwill. For this reason, although he had seen the calligraphy of many famous masters and Joel’s calligraphy looked like a child’s in comparison, he said it was excellent.
After wiping his hands, Joel invited Sebastien to sit down and drink tea. Then he said:
– You don’t have to flatter me. I am aware of my abilities.
Sebastien took the cup of tea and took a sip. He said nothing in response.
After taking a sip, Joel put the cup of tea down before looking at Sebastien meaningfully and asked:
– Recently, my business has exploded. There are a lot of orders. You have a hand in this, right?
Although the companies that came to pick him up were not part of the Flores group, they had more or less cooperated with the Flores group.
Sebastien neither admitted nor denied it. He only said:
– Isn’t that how business works?
The Flores Group did not need to cooperate with the Alvarez family business, but small businesses were different.
“I know you mean well, but you don’t have to,” Joel said. If it were someone else, perhaps they would have long used their daughter to ride on their son-in-law’s coattails. However, he never had this thought. His only hope was that Roxane would be happy.
– Roxane likes to paint and draw. I don’t expect her to inherit the family business. I don’t even have any expectations for that rascal, Enzo, Joel said with a sigh,
– This rascal sets his sights very high so that he doesn’t worry about my little business. I don’t know what will happen after I retire…
Sebastien looked down and said:
– It does not matter. There’s still your grandson, after all. If you don’t mind, you can let your grandson help you.
Joel’s little business was nothing in Sebastien’s eyes. However, he respected Joel from the bottom of his heart for the lifetime of his hard work.
These words struck Joel’s heart and he immediately sat up straighter.
– Grandson? I really can’t count on this kid, Enzo. Are you really ready to let your son take over my business?
– I have no objection if he agrees.
Although he does not have children yet, he has already shown his enlightened attitude as a parent.This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
“Good, that’s good,” Joel said, nodding in satisfaction. Then he asked:
– But what if it’s a girl?
“It’s the same thing for boys and girls,” Sebastien replied. If that didn’t work, at worst, he would help Joel run his business. However, he was still very confident about his future children.
Joel playfully slapped his thigh. He was instantly energized.
– With your words, I feel like I can still fight for another 20 years!
Sebastien smiled slightly and said:
– I think the father-in-law can still fight for another 40 years.
– GOOD. We have a deal then! he said, toasting Sebastien his tea as a substitute for wine.
