The scorching sun rose from the east then set in the west. The shine slowly became softer.
The house was bathed in the soft sunshine, and the study at the second floor turned to be quiet.
“The shopping mall experience was underway officially. This is the new proposal”. The steward said. Then he placed a contract on the table with a serious and strict face.
Jonathan finished reading the contract with more than ten pages quickly, signed his name at the final page, and then passed it to the steward.
“What about her?” he asked.
The steward didn’t have any facial expression, and slightly lowered his head down.
“Miss Hunks has already taken a rest after the meal time.” he answered.
The steward and the other men in this house didn’t know what to call her since Angelia was just a hostess in name only.
Everyone could see the attitude of Jonathan for her. Even some people affirmed that the marriage between them wouldn’t last longer.
Soon, the daughter of the Hunks would leave this house.
Therefore, people here didn’t call her Mrs. Miller but Miss Hunks.
Jonathan thought for a minute, and remembered Angelia‘s serious side face when she was working hard.
“There will be a ball of the Millers and I plan to take her with me. You need to make a preparation for that.”
Jonathan didn’t get along well with his family, so, the steward could understand exactly what he meant.
Though Mr. Miller was unsatisfied with his wife now, the marriage between the Hunks and the Millers had something deal with the idea of his family.
Since Claudia Hunk had already married to the Millers, then she couldn’t lose face of the Millers absolutely.
“Yes, Mr. Miller.”
Jonathan raised his head again and looked at the other desk.
There was still the tool case there. Every time Angelia finished working, she would clean and wiped all the tools, then put them back one by one.
Or when she repaired the necklace, the whole study would become quiet as well.
Jonathan showed a faraway in his eyes.
But soon, he was back to himself and focused on the resources on his hand.
Soon, the sky was dark when the sun set.
