Nellie raising her head made an endearing sight.
Luna smiled and went to peck Nellie's cheek. "You're right. He's very suitable."
Previously, all Luna thought of was how Anne worshiped and admired him. After hearing Nellie's suggestion, however, Luna realized the possibility, too.
With the angular and sleek face, slender neck, and big hands with well-defined joints., he was a good fit to be a jewelry ambassador. Many companies targeted the women's market, and the latest marketing trend was to hire a male celebrity to be their ambassador.
Joshua curled his lips and smiled. He looked at Nellie plainly. "You said you’re just seven and not the age to marry someone yet, but should a seven-year-old consider who to hire to be the jewelry ambassador?"
Nellie pouted upon hearing her father's words. She then lowered her head and took a sip of the warm milk from the glass she was holding. Then, she raised her head to look at Thomas, who was still on television.
"Of course! Mommy said she wanted to reinvigorate her career and even went to Banyan City to look for Aunt Shannon and the others to help her! She's just been so busy getting back on track with her jewelry design career. As her daughter, I have inherited her talented DNA, so it's only natural that I need to help solve her problem so she can be happy. I need to help her to expand her career when she's busy!"
Neil, who was at the side, pursed his lip and was astonished by Nellie's declamation. "Nellie, since when are you better than me at sweet talk?"
Nigel looked up from his notebook and looked at Neil in contempt. "So you know you like to sweet talk?"
Neil rolled his eyes at his brother. "Can you just continue reading and ignore me?"
Nigel sneered and continued to read his book, while Neil grabbed Nellie's hand smilingly. "Tell me, where did you learn all of this?"
At first, Nellie insisted, "I thought all of it out by myself!"
However, her little lies could not withstand Neil's inquisitive spirit. Thus, she sighed and told the truth, "Actually, Uncle Samson was the one who told me."
She looked at Luna conflicted. "Mommy said she's going to hire them to further her career, but she has been so busy. Uncle Samson felt very bored
Luna felt upset by Nellie's words. She squatted and took Nellie into her arms. "I promise you that when all the things are settled, Mommy will start to venture back into the career."
She knew Samson did not mean anything bad when he told Nellie these things.
At most, his intention was to let Nellie pass the message to her that it was about time for her to take care of her career. Nellie must have known Samson's purpose and thought the same as he did, and that was probably why Nellie would bring it up on this day. Otherwise, Luna believed that Nellie would not just repeat whatever Samson said without thinking twice with her high intelligence.
"I've given some thoughts about your jewelry company." Since Luna was mentioning work, Joshua, while putting on the dishes he had cooked on the dining table, said, "I’ll invest into the jewelry company so it'll become a company funded by the Lynch family and the Landry family. I've already asked Lucas to prepare all the necessary matters regarding the jewelry company, too. When we settle the issue with Butler Fred and Mickey, you can ask Shannon, Samson, and the rest to come to join in venturing out in your career."
