Hannah was already angry and was more frustrated when she saw Noah’s silliness.

Ava was worse. She felt nothing for this stepfather of hers. If it were not because Noah could give her the title of the Baker heiress and let her live in affluence, she would not have called a fool her father!

“Alright, alright, it’s nothing!” Hannah sighed and waved a hand impatiently, “Go do whatever you want. Don’t hang around here!”

Noah scratched his head and turned to leave, turning back to look at them in worry as he did.

“It’s Zephyr again, isn’t it? Tell me if he’s offended you two. I’ll go to Janine!”

“Enough, cut the crap!” Hannah glared at him.

Noah pursed his lips and looked at his wife with a wronged expression.

Hannah calmed down and suddenly thought that Noah was right. Why did she not ask him to go to Janine?

Instead of fuming in silence here, they might as well kick up a fuss.

Thinking of this, Hannah put on a new face and went to hook arms with Noah with a grin to sit him down on the couch.

“Sweetheart…” Hannah massaged his shoulders gently. “See, Ava’s grown up now but doesn’t have a proper job. Nothing came out of the two films she was in either…”

“Oh, does she want to keep acting?” Noah was loud. “No problem! Ava, what film do you want to act in? I’ll pay!”

Hannah was delighted but kept the corners of her lips down and said, “Acting’s one thing. But I think our daughter should gain some experience in the company. The media company under the Baker Group is big. There must be a position for Ava?

“Sweetheart, I think… Our daughter’s from the Baker family, right? She has to be an award-winning actress, but she must also have a place in the company, right?

“It’d be good for you if she worked in the company!”

Noah thought about it with knitted brows.

“But… My sister said a long time ago that Ava can’t join the company!”
