Chapter 9 My sister is dead

After leaving the WT group, Lina arrived inside Celta's castle. "I have married Angus as agreed, when are you going to give my father back his shares?" Lina looked at the three members of the Celta family and asked seriously. "Mom, sister really has no upbringing at all, she can't even call her mother." Sally did not hide her disgust for Lina. "Don't call me sister, my sister Nicole is dead." Her sister was dead, and she no longer had a sister. "Snap!" Celta's slap hit Lina's face heavily, "Lina, watch your words!" Lina's cheeks instantly became red and swollen. "Am I wrong? Nicole could have been saved, but because of you, she's dead! She's your daughter too, but are you worthy of being her mother?" Lina sneered as she questioned Celta. It hurt. It really hurt. A slap on the face was nowhere near as painful as a heartache. She felt a little hard to breathe, and if she hadn't experienced it herself, Lina wouldn't have wanted to admit that such a person, was her mother. Same as Celta's daughter, Sally can grow up living in a pampered and princess-like life, and she possesses everything that originally belonged to her and her sister, while her sister Nicole and her were always living a beggar-like life. "Damn you all, you're the ones who made Celta suffer for so many years!" Brugger showed an ugly look and looked like he was heartbroken for Celta. "Honey, that's all in the past, aren't we living well as a family of three now?" Celta said tenderly. Lina looked at their family of three close, more heartache, she thought from the time Celta and Brugger forced her to go to sleep with that Johnny, she was completely disappointed to Celta. Just looking at her icy attitude, the heart still hurts. "I'm not interested in how your family of three is feeling. I came back today just want to know when will you return the shares to my father?" Lina's gaze turned icy cold. She shouldn't have had any illusions about Celta! "You probably don't know that the company has long been on the verge of collapse. You should know that the last time I asked you to accompany Johnny was because the company was dying and I had no choice but to sacrifice you. This is your home too, isn't it?" Celta's tone suddenly became softer. Lina sneered, home? From the moment she was kicked out, the only place where Dill was, was called home. "Now that you are married to Angus, as long as you convince Angus to give our company a chance to cooperate, the company can get through this crisis, and then I will immediately transfer the shares to Dill." Celta spoke up and said. "As long as I do, you can fulfill the promise?" Lina asked. In fact, she wasn't surprised that Celta would make excuses. If it was so simple for her to return her shares to her father, it would be pointless for her to marry Angus. The only reason why Celta and Brugger insisted that she marry Angus was solely because of the wealth of the Bryan family. This was the top of the pyramid that they couldn't touch even after a lifetime of effort. "Of course, by giving the shares back to your father, I still have them in my hands as well, so you didn't go to Angus to work with him for me, but also for your father, didn't you?" Celta asked with a smile. "I hope you say do it, otherwise, I can also let my husband destroy you. After all, he only needs to wave his hand can do it to give me whatever I want." Immediately after Lina left, Sally shrieked shrilly, "Dad, Mom, are you really going to split the company between her and her poor father?" Bruegger and Celta looked at each other in silence, and a look of greed appeared on their faces. "Of course we're lying to her, my sweet, we're just using her, and when the company grows, won't we still be in charge?" Brugger sat happily on the couch. It was already evening back at Angus' old castle. "Madam, you're back, sir is in the study." Robert saw Lina return and immediately came forward. Hearing that Angus was home, Lina in turn was a bit uncomfortable and returned to her room without even eating dinner. Just after washing up, Lina heard the email alert from her phone. When she opened her mailbox and saw the contents, Lina's mood got even worse. WT Group rejected her resume. Obviously, she fitted the requirements of the position, didn't she? Thinking of Celta's request, Lina came to Angus's study with some apprehension. Lina raised her hand and knocked on the door softly, "Angus, may I come in?" There was no sound coming from inside. Lina hesitated for a moment, but pushed the door open and carefully walked in. Angus frowned unhappily at Lina's entry. Robert said she left early and came home late two days in a row, so it seemed she finally remembered her contract husband. But when he saw the clothes Lina was wearing at the moment, he felt disgusted. "Mrs. Angus, what is it that you want to do when you come to me dressed like this at this late night?" Angus said sarcastically. Lina then realized that she had just finished her shower without even changing her clothes, wrapped in a bath towel and came out. She thought about things too much, only thinking about how she could get him to agree to help, and completely unaware that she had not even changed her clothes. Her cheeks instantly flushed, Lina moved back two steps in embarrassment, "Sorry, I was too rude." After saying that, she immediately trotted away and returned to her room, burying her entire body under the covers. It's so humiliating! And watching her escape, a faint smile actually appeared on Angus's face. Last second he thought this woman was trying to seduce him, but when he saw her running away, he actually thought she was a little cute? No, this must be her conspiracy. Angus shook off his head to keep his heart from wavering, this woman was definitely not simple. She was pregnant but still married him. There must be some purpose. The next morning, Lina woke up just in time to see Robert walking toward the study with a glass of milk. "Good morning, ma'am." Seeing Lina, Robert stopped to greet her. "Good morning, Robert, what's this?" Lina asked. "Sir yesterday stayed in the study all night, and today there is a meeting, I am worried...Hey? Madam, how about you send it to the gentleman?" Robert suddenly thought of something, not waiting for Lina to react, directly shoved the milk in his hand into her hand. Lina looked at the tray in her hand and the milk on it, and when she looked back, Robert was already trotting down the stairs like a little kid. She was not a fool, and for the past two days, she knew that Robert genuinely wanted her to be peaceful with Angus as a couple. But he didn't know that they had get married with an agreement and were destined to end. After a moment of hesitation, Lina still carried the milk to the door of the study, she had to beg him, so first of all, to please him was always right. As Lina knocked gently on the study door, there was no response as last night. Lina's cheeks began to flush just thinking about last night, "Sober up, Lina." After taking a deep breath, she pushed open the door to the study. Angus was lying on the table and had fallen asleep. Lina carefully walked in, placed the milk on the table, and then went back to her room to get a small blanket to cover his shoulders. Looking at Angus' quiet look, Lina smiled slightly and had to say that he was really good-looking. With a glance, her eyes were drawn to the papers on the table. It was the language of Caro, which she knew so well. There were two dictionaries on the table and translation software on the computer desktop. Looking at the intermittent translations on the screen, Lina smiled. So he stayed up all night just to translate this document? Lina carefully put the dictionary away, then organized the documents to be translated and took them out of the study.
