Phoebe smiled, her eyes and brows curved. "Don't worry, I understand my responsibilities and I don't like mixing business with personal matters. In terms of business, I have no emotional attachnt to Miss Fitzroy."
She could calmly plan for Vanessa's future because she saw her as a money-making commodity. No matter how dazzling this commodity was, she would actively increase its comrcial value in order to sell it for a good price and benefit the "And what about privately?"
company.
Phoebe pursed her lips and the smile in her eyes gradually disappeared. "Privately, I have no personal relationship with her."
Theodore stared at her, feeling inexplicably disappointed with her answer. This was not what he wanted.
But what did he want?
The car slowly arrived at the Reynolds Mansion and stopped in front of the villa. Lady Reynolds was waiting for Mrs. Reynol. With the support of her driver, Phoebe stood waiting for them at the edge of the corridor. "Grandma, Mom, why did you co out? It's so hot outside," Phoebe said, stepping forward briskly.
"Grandma heard that you had arrived and insisted on coming out to et you," Mrs. Reynolds said. "You two really shouldn't stay away from ho for half a month without being called back." Phoebe lowered her head in embarrassnt. "There is a lot of work at the company."
"I told you to quit and co ho to prepare for pregnancy. Look how thin you've beco. Theodore, how are you taking care of your wife?" Mrs. Reynolds pointed the bla directly at Theodore. Theodore glanced at Phoebe, and fearing that he would bring up her illness, she quickly took over the conversation. "Mom, it's not Theodore's fault. It's so hot outside. Grandma, let's go inside."
"Yes," Lady Reynolds agreed. "Phoebe, don't work too hard. If you ruin your health, whom will you spend all that money on?"
"Grandma, I'm just an office worker. No matter how much I earn, it's not enough to buy you a nice jade bracelet, so I have to work harder." Phoebe said energetically.
Phoebe's lively response made Lady Reynolds burst into laughter. "If you don't have money, ask Theodore. Let him give you all his bank cards, and you can use them as you please."
"I use his cards to buy things for myself, but when it cos to buying things for you and Mom, I want to use the money I earn myself. That's more aningful."
Theodore silently followed behind them. He noticed how good Phoebe was at comforting people, making his grandmother laugh heartily. Even his mother's opinion of Phoebe had changed a lot. She was happy when he and Phoebe returned. As they entered the house, they saw Madison playing gas in the living room. Madison had a deep prejudice against Phoebe, and seeing Lady Reynolds treating Phoebe like a treasure made her very unhappy.
"Grandma, Theodore and Phoebe can find their way. They don't need you to pick them up every ti," Madison said, displeased.
Lady Reynolds stared at her. "I miss them. You go to your room and play gas. It's not right for an adult to stay at ho and play gas all day."
Lady Reynolds liked children who were ambitious. That's why she liked Phoebe, because she had a career ambition and didn't rely on n for her existence.
"You stay at ho and don't cause trouble for Phoebe," Mrs. Reynolds said. "Having one more person eating at ho won't make a big difference."
"Grandma is tired of staying at ho every day. Phoebe, I'll go to your company to work tomorrow. You can see which job suits , and I'll do that, alright?" Madison said eagerly.
Of course, she didn't do this impulsively. She had heard that Vanessa was the top executive at QUEEN Entertainnt Company. When she went to work there, she would co up with a plan with Vanessa to completely drive Phoebe out of the Reynolds family and see if she would still dare to be arrogant in front of her.
