"What face and recognition..." Wendy became anxious and she choked as she said, "No matter what it is, I'm still the public relations director of Wilson Group. It would be really embarrassing if someone were to discover and expose the fact that I’m carrying a fake Hermes bag when I go out!"
Lady Wilson sneered and said, "What do you know? At a time like this, if you have a noble and prestigious status, others would think that it is an authentic product even if you are simply carrying a fake bag. However, if you have a humble and lowly status, others would still say that you’re carrying a fake bag even if you’re actually carrying a genuine bag. Since Wilson Group has had a fresh start and has already made a comeback, then to the outsiders, you naturally have a very high worth and status as the public relations director of Wilson Group. Even if you carry a fake bag, no one will think that it is fake!" 4
Wendy was very depressed and she said, "Grandma, even if you refuse to give me one hundred thousand dollars on the account of being the public relations director of Wilson Group, it isn’t too much for me to ask you to give me that amount of money on the account of being your granddaughter, right?"
Lady Wilson snorted and said, “Don’t try that with me! I will give you ten thousand dollars. You can take it if you want it or you can just forget it if you don’t want it
then!”
Wendy felt very depressed but she knew that if she did not accept the ten thousand dollars from her grandmother, she would not be getting a single cent at all. 6
So, she could only nod as she said in an aggrieved manner, "Alright then. I will just take the ten thousand dollars...”
Lady Wilson cleared her throat before she said solemnly, "Let me tell you. This time, we have to make sure that Wilson Group regains its former glory! We should even try to bring Wilson Group to the next level! So, all of you will have to try your best and you aren't allowed to have any hedonistic thoughts at all! Otherwise, you'll have to get lost even if you are my son or my grandson! Do you understand me?” i
Christopher, Harold, and Wendy knew very well in their hearts that the old lady was saying these words a s a reminder for them.
Although they could not help but feel very depressed, n o one dared to show any intentions of disobeying her a t all. They could only nod resentfully as they replied in unison, "I understand...”
Lady Wilson was satisfied and she waved her hand and said. "Okay. Hurry up and eat. We have to go back t o the company and continue working later in the afternoon!”
