Chapter 555: There'S Something In The Briefcase

Chapter 555: There's Something in the Briefcase

Unexpectedly, Xavier didn't mind his mother's words and went upstairs. He and Emily had no relationship, so why should he do something his mother might misunderstand? -Madam, it's not necessary. I feel I may be able to leave.

Seeing the man's attitude, Emily also felt a little humiliated and found herself a step down.

It would have been a one-sided pursuit on her part, and it was normal for this man to be indifferent towards her.

-This boy... -Sandra glanced in the direction her son was headed and said without good grace.

How could a son be so capricious and treat a girl like that? She didn't know how he will be able to get a wife in the future.

-Okay, take your time..... -Sandra rushed to support Emily, fearing that the other party might fall if she didn't stand her ground.

Emily smiled, and surprisingly responded with a good temper.

-Aunt, I'm fine.

She hobbled over and managed to make her way to the couch.

All the way from the time she reached the couch until she sat down, Sandra kept her eyes on her.

The mother examined Emily up and down. The girl was normal looking, but she didn't look like she was from an ordinary family when she looked at her dress.

-What does your family do? -Sandra poured Emily a cup of tea and asked her directly.

Emily smiled and answered the question.

-My dad runs a company, I studied abroad until last year and only came back this year.

-Is that so? My son has also studied abroad for about three years, and he only came back two days ago.

Sandra thought that fate was wonderful and that two people with the same experience should have similar aspirations.

Emily nodded and took a sip of tea.

Emily was always the only one who had an opinion about other people's family backgrounds, and now that she was being asked for that information, she still felt strange, but she wasn't offended. -Who is in your family? Do you have older siblings?

Sandra was almost like a mother-in-law, prying into her daughter-in-law's family structure.

Emily smiled, put the cup in her hand on the coffee table and said:

-My mother died when I was a child, and Dad found another one, but she and I have a normal relationship.

She had an average relationship with her stepmother, or you could say she didn't have a good relationship.

There wasn't much of an age difference between the two, but her stepmother was a generation older than she was, and it was sometimes quite awkward living together in the house. However, Emily had been spoiled since she was a child, so she didn't look kindly on her stepmother at home, and always treated her badly.

-So that's how it is," Sandra had a general understanding in her mind and nodded.

It seemed that she was not very happy with this family situation.

-When did you and Xavier meet?

A smile came to Sandra's face, but she didn't show it.

It was not necessary for her daughter-in-law to have a good family environment, but she did care about the environment in which she had been raised. Sandra did not want her son to worry too much about his partner's state of mind in the future, and instead preferred a virtuous and considerate image.

Emily gives her the impression of being a little princess.

-In the morning.

Emily didn't want to hide it, nor could she if she had to.

After she finished, Sandra had a realization in her heart. It no longer seemed strange to her that Xavier was so resistant when he saw Emily at first sight.

It turned out to be because this woman and her own son were not close at all.

It was too extreme to go to the man's house without permission on first meeting.

-Do you want something to eat? I'm going to let the babysitter prepare dinner, so stay and eat before you go, okay?

Since they were guests, although Emily's approach was lacking, Sandra was still warm and welcoming.

Emily didn't even think about it, she really liked it and felt she had succeeded.

She knew that with her own qualifications she would be able to fit in in Sandra's eyes. After all, her family was well-to-do and her education was not low.

If a family had a daughter-in-law like her, it would be a blessing in three lifetimes.

At the hot pot restaurant.

-Mariana, you and Mr. Duran continue eating, I'll go pick up Daniel now," the assistant told Mariana and set out to go pick up the young teacher.

Originally, when Daniel's identity had not been made public, he was a young teacher. Now that everyone knew that Daniel was Leopoldo's son, then this young master would truly be true to his name. He thought that Leopoldo's big business will be in the hands of the little boy in the future.

-No need, we can go pick him up later," Mariana said as she smiled.

It was not easy to work as his assistant, she not only had to manage the tasks of the store, but also the affairs of her family.

-I'm sorry for the inconvenience, I'll raise your salary this month," Leopoldo was a little more realistic and said it bluntly.

Mariana was shocked, when did Leopoldo have the right to say something like he was going to raise the salary of his staff in his own store?

-Can you raise the salary of my staff? -Mariana asked Leopoldo as she looked at him.

If Leopoldo uttered such words, then that money would come out of his personal savings.

-Didn't you finish reading the marriage agreement? -Leopoldo looked at the woman and said resentfully.

It was clearly written in black and white that what was hers was his and what was his was still his.

-What?

Mariana felt surprised, could it be that she had fallen into some kind of Leopoldo's trap?

Leopoldo had really played her with that prenuptial code, he had written it all down to keep her from getting a divorce. Now everything she owned was also his.

-If you have any objections, you can ask a lawyer to settle it," Leopoldo took a sip of his tea and said indifferently.

The marriage between them had just become effective, so it was natural for Mariana to have doubts, but the future would be long and she could take her time to understand it.

-It's obvious that it's just a trap," Mariana looked at the electronic version of the agreement on her phone and realized that.

Leopoldo's expression was natural and he didn't have the feeling that he had done anything to annoy Mariana.

-Have you read your father's medical records? -Mariana looked at Leopoldo and asked suddenly.

Leopoldo nodded and affirmed.

-I've seen it all, why?

-You didn't replace anything wrong? -Mariana asked him seriously.

He shook his head, not understanding what Mariana meant.

-I went to check most of the information on the medical records, as well as the doctor of the hospital they belong to, but it doesn't exist," Mariana told Leopoldo, always with the feeling that there was something fishy going on.

This was all very abnormal.

-How did this happen? -Leopoldo was incredulous and did not understand why something like this existed.

Even if Juan became ill and did not continue as president of Grupo Durán, he had enough money on hand and there was no doubt that he would save enough for medical treatment.
