Chapter 44
“My heartless brother sob. Taking care of you is his responsibility, but he heartlessly withheld my allowance. Sister in–law, I vomited three liters of blood last night. If you had come a moment later, you might not have me such looking so handsome and charming anymore!”
Elizabeth, wearing sunglasses, twitched the corner of her mouth. This kid…
“Get up and talk, aren’t you afraid of being laughed at?” Elizabeth said.
“Oh, I won’t get up unless you pro
promise me,” Steven said.
Elizabeth narrowed her eyes and sternly scolded, “Are you going to get up or not?”
On the contrary, Steven held Elizabeth’s legs even tighter and said, “I won’t get up unless you promise me!”
“It seems like you don’t want the contract signed by me anymore?” Elizabeth said.
Steven held back his tears, and Steven’s handsome face suddenly appeared in Elizabeth’s pupils, which startled Elizabeth
“Sister–in–law, I love you!” Steven exclaimed as he hugged her tightly.
Elizabeth looked disgusted and said, “Okay, okay, don’t love me. I’m scared.”
Haha, Elizabeth, this love is not the same as love between man and woman!” Steven laughed.
Later, Elizabeth found out that Steven was charged by Samuel for getting her fever medicine. Elizabeth cursed Samuel in her heart tens of thousands of times.
After learning about Steven’s situation, Elizabeth felt even more sorry for him. Steven was truly a pitiful rich second generation.
“Who invests in your company if you’re so poor?” Elizabeth asked, showing concern.
“Hugo Vincent!”
“Ahem, so you’re not the boss?”
“Who said that? I put in effort too, I found such a good model like you for Hugo! Whose taste is as good as mine?” Steven replied.
“So you didn’t put in any money but became the biggest boss, just because of you with the facile tongue?” Elizabeth thought
Is Hugo really that foolish?
“So Hugo put in the money…”
o just needs to take a salary. Hugo said it
“Don’t worry, sister–in–law. I am the legal representative and the boss of this company. Hugo himself, I didn’t force him,” Steven explained.
Incredibly good news, Could Hugo really do such a thing for a friend?
Elizabeth expressed her doubts, as Elizabeth knew that Steven had a bit of naivety in him.
“Did you say last time that you wanted Hugo to be my agent?” Elizabeth asked.
Steven nodded eagerly in agreement.
“Does Hugo even understand the industry, with his fair complexion? And can he bear attack?” Elizabeth asked.

Steven remained silent, unsure of how to respond to Elizabeth’s doubts about Hugo’s abilities,
Being an agent and having to resist fighting?
“Yes, yes, as long as you have a request, Ingo will definitely meet it.”
As long as Hugo can satisfy Elizabeth, it doesn’t matter if Hugo sacrifices his good looks.
Elizabeth was speechless.
Elizabeth felt that the situation was not as simple as it seemed.
Nightfall quickly approached.
The Yorks held a family banquet once a month, and all four sons and two daughters of the York family came with their respective families.
Julian York, the elder sister–in–law, got up early in the morning and started to be busy, instructing the servants to prepare arranging various activities.
Elizabeth, who grew up in The Yorks since childhood, hated family banquets the most
meals and
It sounded like a family reunion, but in reality, it was a competition hidden beneath the surface, with hidden undercurrents.
If it weren’t for Grandpa Tomas, Elizabeth would have been too lazy to participate in such a fake family banquet
As usual, the family banquet was held in the banquet hall of The Yorks. The housekeeper and waiters placed the fine wine and fruit snacks on the long table. When everyone arrived, the prepared dishes would be placed on the table. Each person’s portion and dishes were arranged according to their preferences, which was a tradition of The Yorks.
The younger generation of The Yorks gradually entered the room and greeted Julian one by one.
Elizabeth was supposed to arrive in the afternoon, but Elizabeth was delayed in arrive by getting medication temporarily. Elizabeth also went back to Beverly Hills to change her clothes, Elizabeth couldn’t dress too casually, lest she embarrass Grandpa Tomas.
Grandpa Tomas said he liked Elizabeth to dress up beautifully.
Julian and her husband James were greeting their siblings and younger relatives at the entrance of the hall. Everyone brought gifts for Tomas, except for Elizabeth who brought in a bag of folk prescription medicine.
James and Julian have never been fond of Elizabeth, especially Julian. She couldn’t sleep well for several days and nights after being threatened by Elizabeth last time. Julian was thinking about how to deal with this wicked woman, but Elizabeth had caught her
weakness.
At this moment, Julian still had to help Elizabeth navigate the situation.
Seeing her husband’s unpleasant expression, Julian spoke up in front of Elizabeth, “James, Liz is much more sensible now than before. Look, Liz knows how to be filial to Grandpa Tomas.”
It was only because of Grandpa Tomas that James didn’t say anything!
However, James still maintained a cold attitude towards Elizabeth. How could such a woman be worthy of his excellent son? James didn’t know what Tomas was thinking. Even if Tomas felt sorry for Elizabeth, Tomas couldn’t joke about James’s son’s future.
