Chapter 469
Emily shook her head, climbed out of bed in her pajamas, and went to her suitcase to pick out an outfit for herself.
Sebastian's choice of clothes was snubbed by Emily, but he didn't mind; he just found it funny.
A kid this small is already picking out her own clothes.From NôvelDrama.Org.
True enough, vanity is a woman's nature, and kids are no exception.
After Emily was ready, she went downstairs with Sebastian..
Marilyn and Judith adored Emily, and they called her over for breakfast when she came down.
"Emily, that dress is so pretty!"
Emily smiled and said, "I picked it out myself."
"Wow, Emily, you have such good taste!"
"Thanks for the compliment!"
"Oh my, your sister also loved to wear pretty dresses when she was little. She's such a vain pot."
"Sis is so pretty."
"Emily, you're beautiful too, a real beauty in the making!"
Judith chimed in, "Exactly."
On the weekend, Stephanie's schedule was fully packed.
Emily was almost always by Stephanie's side, learning alongside her as she took classes.
When Stephanie was learning to drive, she sat in the back seat.
When Stephanie was walking the dog, she joined in too.
Emily, who was initially scared of dogs just like Stephanie, was no longer afraid after Stephanie taught her how to interact with them.
On the contrary, the dog who used to love playing with Stephanie now preferred Emily,
It seems like big dogs enjoy playing with children.
Sebastian usually didn't go to the office on the weekend, but the summary from last night made him want to formulate the rules as soon as possible and then start implementing them. Martin also had to work overtime.
Upon learning of Sebastian's new plan, he said, "Boss, aren't we taking too much of a risk? If the old man finds out, won't he give you a hard time?"
Sebastian replied calmly, "What can he do... If I'm always in charge of the Ingram family, then I'm just making the Ingram family prosper. If I'm not, I can create my own business empire." That made sense...
Martin thought the boss was fearless and bold.
But he asked, "Boss, why did you suddenly think of these ideas?"
Sebastian said, "Jeffrey and Ashley's
ultimate tragedy was because Jeffrey was not strong enough, the Perez family was too chaotic, too
many illegitimate children, too many people eyeing the position of power."
"So, boss, are you doing this for Ms. Bishop?"
"Yup, to protect the people close to me and the ones she wants to protect, you have to be powerful, just like Zachary back in the day, a presence in B City that scared
people... Even my Ingram family didn't dare to mess with him."
Martin knew about Zachary's legend.
MS
No doubt, he was a godlike figure.
However, their boss was no ordinary person either; reaching that level was not out of the realm of possibility.
So he said, "I support all the decisions you make, boss."
Sebastian nodded, "Stick to the plan, don't rush, aim for stability."
What Martin didn't know was that Sebastian had other worries.
Last night, he had thought if Zachary returned one day, would his little girl still be his?
Considering the Snider family's
doting on their daughter and Zachary, a father who spoils his daughter with all the years of neglect for his daughter, he'd definitely take the little girl and Mrs. Bishop back to the Snider family if he came back.
So he had to be fully prepared.
The little girl is his, and no one can take her away!
Even without Zachary's fatherly love, he could give her all the best things, and let her do anything she wants.
