Chapter 49
“Mom, I think it’s a great idea! So, shall we do that?” Steve said with an evil smile. His eyes glowed with fierceness. But soon, the
glint of fierceness faded out in his eyes once Steve thought of his defeats with Frank for so many years This time, Steve felt
confident of the result. He must win over Frank. Gina proudly raised her eyebrows and narrowed her eyes. “I heard Frank
promoted a girl to be the new design director recently, and he treats her well. Mom met Mrs. Chaney and Ann on her way back to
the company. Ann told her that they had breakfast together this morning. ” It’s odd. Frank always keeps himself away from
women. We have to be careful.” After that, Steve lost in thought. His eyes narrowed into slits, and suddenly, he sneered, “Ann
deliberately told you this. She is clearly driving a wedge between Frank and us.” “Steve, you are wrong. That girl is smart. She
knows we want her to marry Frank, so she wants us on her side to hate the new design director.” Gina said lightly. She slit her
eyes into shrewdness. The evil smile again appeared on Steve’s face. His pair of almond eyes gleamed with a touch of
contempt. “Well, she’s indeed smart. If she was not the adopted daughter of the Taylor family, I would have married her. You
know, the Chaney family is prestigious in Mayfield.” Frank always looked intimidating, and people could feel his forceful vibe
within three feet. But strangely, Ann fell head over heels in love with Frank. Instead, she turned a cold shoulder to Steve. At the
thought of this, an impulse of anger arose in Steve. Steve suddenly had a self-satisfied smirk on his face. When he thought of
Frank’s angry and helpless face a few days later, Steve felt exhilarated. Gina gave him a cold glare and said in a sharp voice,
“Steve, it doesn’t matter if you say the words in front of me. But you better keep them in this room. An adopted daughter is still a
member of the Chaney family. In Mayfield, Ann is still known as the Chaney family’s eldest daughter. They will accept you if you
marry Ann, but unfortunately, Ann doesn’t like you at all.” “Mom! I don’t need more insults, okay?” Steve had a displeased
expression on his face. Gina’s words stirred a wave of anger inside him. Was there something wrong with Steve? He was
charming and loaded. In Steve’s eyes, he was out of Ann’s league, so Ann didn’t get a say. Gina gave a knowing smirk as she
looked at her son. Gina’s every move spoke for elegance. “Kid, I’m your mom, so I should be honest with you. You are the future
president of Gita Group, so naturally, others will brown nose you. Only your mom will give you a wake-up call. Let’s pack up. We
have to go!” Gina got up and walked out with her luxurious handbag. Steve sullenly got up to turn off the computer and packed
his stuff. Rows of tall buildings and streams of colorful lights undulated through the city. The sky was wide, dotted with a bright
moon and flickering stars. Rows of lampposts lined up the street. The bright light shone through the trees along with the street
and cast shadows all over the ground. Judith and Adam rambled along while enjoying the beef skewers in their hands. Judith
complained, “Adam, having money to buy a house doesn’t change anything. We have been looking for a house this whole day,
but we found nothing suitable so far.”
