Chapter 421
Ever since it was made public, Rose had openly started dating, and Frank was having a lot of fun.
During the day, he would accompany Ava to class. When there were no classes, he would accompany Ava to play around.
After the engagement.
The Turner family’s people did not call Ava, giving them enough space to get along.
Soon, it was the day of Children’s Day.
In the Landor Group.
Edward wore a well-pressed suit and sat in front of the computer. His golden glasses were constantly adding to his refined aura as he stared at the computer screen seriously. His slender fingers were moving on the keyboard.
He could type very quickly.
Two minutes ago, Kyle received a text message from Edward. It only had two words. [Come in.]
When Kyle pushed open the door and entered, the first thing he saw was that Edward was busy working. He sat down on the chair in front of the desk and said, “What are your orders, Edward?”
These words were calm, but one could still feel a trace of resentment.
Edward smiled and said, “Are you dissatisfied? Because you said that you wanted to show the value of you when you came here. You’re already complaining before you even show your value.”
Kyle had been suffering recently. After Edward got off work, he worked overtime. He came earlier than anyone else because Kyle had also taken over the morning meeting. Edward wanted to woo someone and accompany his girlfriend.
Without Kyle, they would probably have broken up.
“Alright, just say it. What do you want me to do?” Kyle had a helpless expression on his face.
Edward really couldn’t bear it, but he had no choice but to accompany Rose for Children’s Day tomorrow and go to Artroyland at night. However, Kyle’s words made him want to laugh. It made him look like he wasn’t going to date as if he was going to die later.
“You should keep an eye on the meeting these few days and the company’s matters. Let my father be less worried. I have to spend Children’s Day with my girlfriend tonight.”
Kyle thought, “Are you showing off? Are you going to celebrate Children’s Day with your girlfriend?
“Who would celebrate Children’s Day at the age of 26?”
“I’ll give you my blessings even if you don’t show off your affection. My sincere blessings. I think Miss Roberts is quite suitable for you. You’re happier than before. You are not the depressed prince any longer. I’m leaving.”
After saying that, Kyle calmed himself down and got up to leave the office. Behind him, Edward was smiling and said, “I’ll be back the night after tomorrow. Thank you for your hard work, Kyle.”
Kyle said, “I’m waiting for your wedding banquet. Work harder and do it directly.”
Edward watched as the office door closed. He stopped laughing and called Juana. The call was quickly connected. “Hello.”
“Mom, I’m going overseas tonight. I won’t be back for the next few days. You don’t have to wait for me to have meals.”
Juana thought that Edward was busy with his career again and said, “Edward, you can’t work as hard as before. Your father is still young. If there’s anything, let him do it. Look, he has nothing better to do than read the newspaper every day. You should spend more time with Dr. Roberts. Girls need company.
Juana was really afraid that if Edward continued to be so busy, he would be alone again. She was worried about it. It was not easy for him to find such a girlfriend. No matter which aspect it was, she was very good.
After Joy’s analysis, she said that the Roberts family’s people were easy to get along with. She also said that Frank would not stop her. This made Juana feel relieved.
Edward pinched the space between his eyebrows. He held his phone and said patiently, “Mom, I’m going out to travel with Rose, not to work.”
“Really? That’s great.”
Juana’s voice was so loud that it could hurt Edward’s ears. He had no choice but to hold the phone further away.
On the other end of the line, Juana was very happy. She was so excited that it was as if she had won the lottery. She instructed, “You have to take good care of Dr. Roberts when you’re overseas. You can’t be careless. You have to be especially careful when you’re outside.”
“Got it. I’ll take good care of her. Don’t be so nervous.”
Edward felt that his entire family was nervous when he was in a relationship, afraid that he would fail. Now that he thought about it, Rose was right when she said that he shouldn’t tell them.
“Alright. Edward, you have to work hard. Bring Dr. Roberts home as soon as possible. Alright, I won’t disturb you anymore. I’m hanging up. I’m going to chat with Ruby’s grandmother.”
Edward was speechless.
After hanging up the phone, Edward sighed. Juana’s personality was the same as Sherri’s. He opened the chat interface and re-noted Rose as Dear Rose.
He looked down at the name and was quite satisfied. There was a glint in his eyes. Today was Children’s Day. Rose should gain a gift. He had given her a gift.
He did not give her a very expensive gift. After spending a few days together, he realized that Rose was not a gold digger. If he did it, it would increase her psychological burden. She could accept this gift.
A sense of ritual was enough too. Everything was just right.
For a long time, Rose did not accept the gift. Even when they boarded the plane, Rose did not accept this gift.
Today, Rose was dressed very casually in sportswear. However, her top was relatively short, making her look charming. Edward also tacitly wore light gray sportswear.
On the plane.
Edward asked the air stewardess for two blankets. One covered Rose and the other was placed beside him. “Why aren’t you accepting the gift? Isn’t it Children’s Day? Don’t you need gifts?”
Rose said, “I’m a little embarrassed to accept it. It’s a little too precious.”
Edward knew that it was for this reason. If other young ladies gained these gifts, they might still dislike him and think he was too stingy. He had not given any particular expensive gift, but Rose still felt that it was a little too much.
“It’s okay. That’s just a gift. I’ll change it next time. Is that okay?”
Since Edward had already said so, Rose would definitely not be unreasonable anymore. She agreed readily. “Alright then. Thank you, Edward.”
Rose even sent a thankful and interesting emoji, which made Edward laugh. He couldn’t help but ask, “Where did you get these emojis?”
They were all quite cute, reflecting her cute personality.
Rose tilted her head and raised her exquisite face proudly. She said to Edward, “On the Internet, I’ll add anything I see that looks good to my collection. Then, when I use it in a suitable atmosphere, I’ll send it to you. Are you happy? I still have a lot. I’ll send it to you in the future.”
Edward suggested, “Sure. Do you want to sleep? It’s a long journey. Sleep for a while and I’ll wake you up when we get there.”
“Wait a minute, I haven’t asked Frank for a gift.”
Rose lowered her head and spoke as she saw her phone. At the same time, she sent a message to Frank. [Frank. Happy Children’s Day. Please give me a gift.]
Then, another message was sent. [Dear brother, give me a gift. It proves that you still remember me as your only sister. As for the reason, let me explain to you. It’s because Ava and I should gain the gifts.]
From Edward’s side, he could see all of Rose’s messages. Rose did not put on any anti-peeping screen protector, nor did she do anything to hide it. Then, Edward saw Frank’s reply. [I lack money.]
Rose sent an angry emoji. [Why are you lying to me? Forget it, since you just proposed, you give me a gift, and I’ll give you a more expensive one. How about it? You will gain more.]
When Edward saw this message, he felt a conspiracy. Coupled with Rose’s evil smile, he was sure that Rose would not make a
loss.
It was unknown if Frank did not argue with Rose or if he really wanted to earn it. A few seconds later, Frank agreed. Rose quickly thanked himrand giggled. She covered her mouth and leaned against Edward.
Her smile was always touching others. At this moment, Edward also smiled. Although he did not know what Rose wanted to do in the next second, he felt that she had a conspiracy.
As expected, Rose first politely sent Frank a cute emoji thanking him. After sending some cute emojis, and then, Edward’s smile deepened.
She did not give him a gift at all, but just a picture!
After Frank received it, he quickly replied. [Rose, do you want to be hit?]
