Chapter 66
Bennett asked Sabina to look after Estelle more, and Leonie, didn’t want to fall behind, also praised her own daughter and son, asking Sabina to help them out
more
Estelle seized the opportunity to slip away quietly, returning to the sofa to continue playing games with Hans.
The Macclain family had a gathering at the old house every week, and another one every half a month. It was a rule set by Terrence. During the gatherings, the men would chat about business matters, while the women would gossip and strengthen their relationships.
Sallie arrived just in time for dinner. Being an art student, she dressed rather unconventionally. After arriving, she threw her bag on the sofa and put her legs on the coffee table, looking quite indecent.
Leonie came over and hinted for her to greet Mrs. Macclain, but Sallie ignored her.
When the dishes were served, everyone took their seats one after another. Terrence sat in the main seat, with Mrs. Macclain on his left and Sabina on his right. The others took their seats in turn. When Estelle went over, there was only an empty seat at the end of the table.
Bennett felt a bit sorry for her and wanted to call her over but Sallie took the seat directly, leaving him no choice but to keep quiet.
The Macclain family liked to chat during meals. Everyone was laughing and talking, making it a lively atmosphere. Sabina was still the center of everyone’s
conversation.
“Sabina works at the Lamont Group, she needs to help us with our family business more in the future,” Leonie said with a smile.
Sabina smiled modestly, “Mr. Lamont knows my name and background and still lets me follow him around. That shows he trusts me completely.”
In other words, she wouldn’t betray Jonathan and steal company information for the Macclain family, letting them know not to even think about it.
Terrence chuckled, “If we did that, we’d be the ones being petty. The Lamont family trusts us, we can’t do such things.”
“Oh my!” Leonie exclaimed dramatically. Sallie wanted this bracelet before, but couldn’t get it. Mr. Lamont is really amazing!”
Stanley Macclain and Leonie flattered and appeased Sabina, making the atmosphere at the table even more lively. Meanwhile, things were unusually quiet at the end of the table
Bennett was a bit unhappy ever since people started talking about Sabina and Jonathan’s relationship. He observed Estelle’s expression while frowning. Sallie couldn’t stand her parents‘ sycophantic behavior and started playing on her phone.
Leonie glanced at her daughter and slapped her hand in disappointment. “all you know is playing games all day. Can’t you just be more ambitions and mature? Why can’t you learn from your sister Sabina?”
Sallie’s face darkened. She put down her phone and jabbed at a chicken wing in her bowl with her fork as if it had done her wrong.
Natalia stepped in to smooth things over, “Sallie is very talented too, she’s studying in design school and will have her own studio in the future.”
Upon hearing this, Leonie pretended to be modest, “She’s still young and inexperienced, so I’m planning to have her work at KING’s design studio for some time after she graduates
