"You went on a business trip with Patrick and just bought a piece of handicraft?"
The sun was gradually setting. Christina looked at the man in front of her in surprise. Charles sat in her office seat without scruples, playing and appreciating the handicraft in his hands.
"What are you doing here?"
Christina snatched her lucky cat and glared at him.
She and Lucy waited at the company for almost a day. In the end, only Charles arrived. She stayed up late in Japan last night and flew back to the company early in the morning. The manager asked her to treat Lucy. So she didn't sleep for one minute until five o'clock in the afternoon. Now she was sleepless and very irritable.
"My brother is abroad and I can't contact him for the time being. So I have to come over and sign the contract with IP&G on his behalf."
Charles certainly knew that Patrick gave his wife the project for nothing. Since they were friends, he wouldn't make things difficult for her. All he would do was to sign the contract and then leave.
Christina frowned.
She didn't expect Charles to sign the document on behalf of the company. Christina asked, "Didn't you say that your company has a new shareholder this year? Why didn't the new boss show up?"
"I don't know," Charles said truthfully.
This company was owned by his big brother. Charles ate the bread of idleness and only cared about his own business. Moreover, there were many small companies invested by the Shepherd family. So he did not pay special attention to them.
"He must be from the business circle. I remembered that my brother said he was our friend," Charles shrugged and said casually. "I'll ask my brother when he comes back. It's not important anyway."
They thought a small company with just around 20 people could not cause any big trouble. It didn't matter that who was the boss.
Charles looked up at her and noticed that Christina's eyes were bloodshot. She obviously did not sleep well.
"Why are you so haggard? Do you have to work so hard?"
Christina looked at his radiant face and felt unfair. She was haggard because she stayed up all night.
In order to wait for him to sign this damn contract with Lucy, she didn't sleep for a day. Christina shouted at him angrily, "Hurry to the conference room and sign the contract. I've been waiting for you for a long time."
Charles rubbed his nose guiltily and said, "Actually, I had been in the Hopkins family, so I came here late."
He also knew that he had been late for a few hours. Subconsciously, Charles turned to look at the lift and continued, "Old Master Jun called me. He asked me to bring Brianna to the company. He said that Brianna could help you and you could take her to know more about the society."
Christina froze.
Brianna was going to work for this company!
When Christina heard the news, she had mixed feelings. Just as she was about to ask Charles more questions, the manager rushed over.
"Mr. Shepherd, it's getting late. Let's go to the conference room and sign the contract with the representative of IP&G."
They strode to the conference room and signed the contract with Lucy quickly. The employees in the company had already started to clock out.
At this time, there were only a few employees left in the company. The lift door slowly opened.
Brianna walked out of the lift in a light blue dress. She had delicate features and wore light makeup, like a very delicate orchid. Brianna walked in small steps, followed by two maids from the Hopkins family. These two people were responsible for Brianna's diet and daily life. They also accompanied her out.
Charles gave a brief introduction. "This is my good friend's sister."
The manager looked at Brianna, who was obviously from the upper class. She must be brought up by indulgent parents. He carefully reached out his hand and wanted to shake hands with her.
But Brianna widened her eyes slightly and took a step back at the strange man.
The manager was confused, but he also felt that his action seemed to have frightened her. He was a little embarrassed for a moment.
Charles acted like a gentleman and stood in front of Brianna, explaining for her as usual.
"My friend is quite introverted. She will come here tomorrow for an internship. You can arrange a simple job for her."
"Okay, okay." The manager nodded quickly.
Since Charles trusted her to him, he must take good care of this young lady. Seeing her innocent appearance, he knew that she had never worked before.
Christina looked at them with a meaningful look and didn't want to go over.
Lucy rarely meddled in other people's business. She was a little disappointed and unhappy because she didn't see the new boss of this company. Just as Lucy was about to leave, she noticed Christina's strange look from the corner of her eye.
"Who is that lady?" Lucy came to Christina and looked at Brianna, asking.
Christina was surprised and said, "You don't know her?"
Lucy knew Patrick so well. But how could she not know his sister?
"Brianna, Patrick's sister," She paused and added, "She was adopted."
Lucy showed an enlightened expression and said. "Oh, it's Miss Hopkins." But then she was no longer interested in the timid woman.
So what about Miss Hopkins? Lucy only spent time investigating valuable people.
But Lucy was confused. "Why is his sister so introverted and timid?"
"I heard that Brianna was autistic since she was a child. She is very introverted and fears strangers."
"Oh? Really?" Lucy sneered, "Since she's from the Hopkins family, even if she's adopted, she shouldn't be like this."
Lucy turned around and left. She didn't like to waste time on invaluable points.
Lucy left without hesitation. Christina looked at the back of Lucy and pondered on what she had just said, "Since she's from the Hopkins family, even if she's adopted, she shouldn't be like this."
Charles went into the office with the manager to continue talking about business. His brother went on a business trip a while ago and handed over the ownership to the new shareholder. After that, his brother seemed to disappear. No one could contact him. Charles wanted to ask the manager about something just in case.
After the manager had arranged Brianna's entry to the company, the two maids who accompanied her whispered to Brianna, "Young madam is over there." They indicated that Brianna should go over and greet Christina.
