Chapter 228 Shameless People Have Nothing to Lose
At 12 o’clock, Gerald, Ingrid, and Daphne walked out of the studio together with Eddie.
Since receiving the news, Eddie followed Ingrid closely.
They did not find any high–level restaurants. Ingrid brought them to a restaurant that was not too
big, but the taste was quite good.
After sitting down, Ingrid said, “Do you still remember this place? At that time, you brought me
here to eat.”
She said to Daphne.
Daphne nodded and said, “There are still a lot of memories about Washington. I attended high school here. Unfortunately, my father and my mother…”
“You really can’t blame your mother for this. Your father had a problem in the first place. At that time, your grandfather thought that your mother was a gold digger. Your mother ran to Sacramento. Although Goldsun Group was invested and managed by your father, your mother also paid a lot of effort,” Ingrid said. “Later, your father cheated, and they divorced. Then in order to let
you have a good education environment, she compromised with your father to remarry. Then your father was caught again… Your father is such a dissolute man.”
Daphne sighed and said, “I don’t care about it at all now. My father is such a person, and he can’t
change it. The key thing is that the people in my father’s family still think that there is no problem.
They think that this is not my father’s problem. Rich people don’t care about these things. Plus, I am a girl. I am not so important at home.”
In aristocratic families, the inheritance of men was quite important.
“Anyway, I just need to mind my own business.” She shook her head and said, “I can’t be bothered
with the matters of the previous generation. In the future, I won’t think about looking for a wealthy
family or anything like that. It’ll be fine as long as I can paint and live the life I want to live.”
The two college students began to talk about life here.
Gerald listened from the side and did not say anything.
During the nine years in Night Watch, when he was on a mission, he had indeed seen too many questions like this.
It was not easy for him to intervene in matters like family affairs, except for those that were too excessive, such as Catherine’s or Trevon’s.
“Forget it. Let’s not talk about this,” Ingrid said. “Let’s talk about something happy.”
Daphne nodded and said, “By the way, Riley has also returned to Washington. I guess he will come
to find you again.”
Ingrid curled her lips and said, “In fact, Riley and I are friends. If he had not shown his love to me, it
would not have been so awkward.”
Riley was a member of the Tucker family. Irvin and Eddie did not care much about Ingrid seeing him and even encouraged it!
After dinner, Daphne got a call from her mother. She greeted Gerald and then left.
After Ingrid and Gerald had finished eating, they also returned to Ingrid’s studio.
In the afternoon, Catherine came to the company. Everything was fine. Gerald also stayed in
Ingrid’s studio. From time to time, he would have a meeting with some other investors of Ingrid’s
studio.
For him, it was just a formality. The work was mainly in the charge of Catherine!
Catherine was well–adjusted. After she came to the studio, she completely entered a working state.
At five o’clock in the afternoon, Ingrid left the studio on time. Gerald and Catherine drove back to
the company to clock in!
When they returned to the Sales Department, Gerald found that Nick and others looked a little
unnatural.
