Chapter 216 The Rules Of An Influential Family

Charlie handed his phone to Helen. If she calls again, tell her I’m busy.

Helen hastily took the phone from him and answered, Yes, Mr. Hadley.

Charlie then gazed at Julia and asked, Can I start eating now?

He was now more certain of what his heart desired after going through so much for the past few years.

Julia couldn’t stop smiling. I never said you can’t.

The couple exchanged glances and smiled wordlessly, not saying anything else since Christina and Nathaniel were around.

Christina couldn’t help beaming upon seeing their harmonious interaction. She then placed some food on Nathaniel’s plate. Here. You should eat more.

Nathaniel leaned closer and whispered into her ear, “Are you happy?

Christina seemed to care a lot about him and his family. All the feelings she harbored in those few minutes were clearly displayed on her face, ranging from worry, disappointment and finally, happiness.

She seemed to treat his family like her own, for the smile on her face looked genuine.

Her watery, gleaming eyes narrowed into slits as she grinned. Of course. It feels great to spend Thanksgiving together as family.

After dinner, the four of them sat on the couch in the living room to watch television.

They were watching a soap opera. During an advertisement, an interview was shown.

Shelley appeared to be glowing as she smiled brightly at the camera. “That’s right. Those are all my designs. I’m honored to represent the company and meet everyone.

The gala was hosted in Jadeborough. Zachary had been the one to invite Shelley to the event.

Obviously, the Jansson family was very supportive of Shelley’s career and was helping her secure a stable position in the industry.

Julia stared at the unfamiliar face on the screen and frowned as she asked Christina, That is Ada?

Shouldn’t Ada be Christina? Why was she replaced by someone I’d never seen before?
