Chapter 312
Rose stared at him in a daze. Was this the same refined father who was in her memory?
After not seeing him for a few years, he had grown older. He was less than 60 years old, yet he appeared t o be in his 70s.
George walked toward the leather sofa and sat down slowly. He pointed toward the sofa on the other side and said to Rose, "Come and sit."
Rose chose to sit down on the sofa beside him instead, which was the closest to George's seat.
George instructed Anne, "Bring some beverages for our guest.”
Anne snorted coldly. "Dear, we don’t have anything good at home to serve the guest."
Rose immediately uttered, "Plain water will do."
Thus, Anne went on to pour a cup of water for Rose while she babbled endlessly, "If it weren't for my children, we wouldn't even be able to afford to pay for plain water. Hmph. Where's that darling son and daughter of the Severe family? How could they be unreliable during critical times?"
George's aged face immediately turned gloomy as he spat out, "Will you die if you don't mention them for a single day?"
Anne walked over with a cup of water and placed it heavily on the coffee table. She made a huge thud to show her inner dissatisfaction.
"Yes, I just can’t reconcile with it. When the Severe family was at its glory, why were Zayne and Angeline the only ones acknowledged by the Severe family? They were showered with unlimited money and riches, yet my children lived in the dark. Now that the Severe family has fallen, one of
them is dead and the other one has fled to God knows where. But my children are the ones who have to bear hardships with you!”
Rose held onto the cup and slowly savored the flat plain water.
In her eyes, Anne's indignation was simply preposterous. She was the one who had separated her father and mother, which made Zayne and Angeline lose their paternal love overnight.
As for her children, they led a spoiled and prosperous life under their father's wing.
Today, the Severe family had fallen, yet Zayne was working hard to save Severe Enterprises even though managing a company was not his strongest suit.
As for her, she was dead. Otherwise, how could she possibly let her family go through trials and hardships alone? Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
Rose was stifled with her inner thoughts, yet she dared not speak out.
George's prestige was unlike back in the days. Anne was the one talking endlessly while he stayed silent the majority of the time and did not refute.
In the end, he retorted rather helplessly, "There's a guest at home. There’s no need to be long- winded."
Anne snorted coldly and went upstairs.
Rose looked at her frustrated and annoyed father, recalling how dignified he used to be in front of her gentle mother. Yet, she felt that he was responsible for this outcome.
"This is my business card, Mr. Severe."
Rose handed the self-made business card to George.
It was a pure black business card with her name written in big gold letters. 'Ange Lin, Hacker’.
On the other side, it stated her graduate school-QHXY!
George was stunned, and the hand holding onto the business card trembled inexplicably. He looked at her suspiciously.
Ange Lin, when combined together, was obviously Angeline!
Profession, Hacker!
Graduate school, QHXY!
Every detail was exactly the same as Angelina's.
"Who on earth are you?" George locked his eagle-eyes o n Rose's face.
Rose looked at him dimly. "My name’s Ange Lin. I'm here to apply for a job.”
George sneered. "Heh, job hunting, huh? Severe Enterprises is on the verge of bankruptcy. At this moment, even our layoffs are overwhelming. Why would I hire a new employee?"
