Knockout ......
"Tina, may I come in?"
"Auntie, come in!"
Tina was embarrassed to hear it was Lareina's voice.
Lareina smiled as she walked to the bathroom door and said with a smile, "Tina, I brought a set of clothes over for you, why don't you take them in and try them on and see if they fit?"
Tina, wearing a bathrobe, gently opened the door a little and took the clothes with an awkward faint smile, "Thank you, Auntie!"
The words fell, Tina took the clothes and hurriedly changed out.
When Lareina saw her coming out, she stood up from the sofa and beckoned to Tina, "Come over here and show auntie, does it fit?"
"Eh, it's so nice, it's like it was made for you!"
As the saying goes, the more a mother-in-law looks at her daughter-in-law, the more she likes her!
"By the way, how did you fall into the pond? Did Vincent bully you?"
"Whatever happened to the president, I fell down by accident?"
Tina was afraid that Lareina would misunderstand Vincent, and if that happened, she would still be able to stay in the company.
Pulled Tina's hand and said, "I know very well what kind of person my son is, the two of them never let me worry since they were young, so you don't have to speak for him!"
"Not this ......"
"Well, let's go down first! Auntie will definitely talk to him properly later!"
Lareina finished and pulled Tina towards the stairs.
Tina saw that Lareina was convinced that her fall into the pond was Vincent's doing. What if he gets angry and makes her pay him for all those water lilies later?
Look at yourself or be prepared to accompany the money!
"Auntie, let me ask you something, okay?"
Tina thought it would be better to ask the price of those water lilies first and then make plans?
"What do you want to ask, just say it?"
"Where did that ...... backwoods pond there buy the water lilies from?"
Lareina thought for a moment before saying; "Are you talking about the pond in the middle of the woods?"
"Eh!"
"The water lilies there seem to be a rare variety that Vincent brought in from abroad, and they've been planted for two years, and they only bloomed this year!"
Tina pretended to be surprised and said, "A variety introduced from abroad, isn't that very expensive?" Hearing the rare breed, Tina immediately felt the meat pain.
"It's not expensive, one is only three million!"
What kind of water lily is this? One of them costs more than 3 million, even if she is sold, she can't afford to pay for it!
She remembered that the water lilies that got her killed were at least ten or more, is this the rhythm of her death?
Tina reached out and touched her forehead, but today she was in big trouble?
"What's wrong, is it a headache?"
When Lareina saw her like this, she thought she had just caught a cold when she fell into the water.
"Auntie, I'm fine!"
"Tina, you're working at the front desk now, right!"
Lareina glared at her son, turned her head and asked with a smile.
"Um, because I studied acting in school, when I arrived at your company, I could only work as a receptionist first!"
Tina did not tell Lareina that she was recruited directly by Vincent, she was afraid that would cause unnecessary misunderstanding?
"So who else is in your family? What do mom and dad do for a living?" Lareina got acquainted with Tina, so naturally some things were asked casually.
"Ahem ......"
"Mom, you're acting like you're checking your account, what do you make Miss Baker think?"
Tina knew that Vincent was saying this on purpose because he was afraid he would be upset if he mentioned about his mother?
"My mother has passed away, and now there is still my father and brother inside the house, my father had a car accident not long ago, and is still inside the hospital?"
Tina said with a smile, not feeling embarrassed to speak about her family.
Chris Meyer and Lareina obviously did not expect such an encounter with Tina, and looked at her with a softer look.
"Tina, let's not mention the past, come to your aunt and uncle if you have anything in the future, we will definitely do it for you?"
Lareina took Tina's hand and said, her eyes full of pain.
"Thank you Auntie!"
Chris Meyer did not think that a girl so young to carry such a heavy burden, the most important thing is that when it is clear that she is very short of money, will take out the only money to give him, and he was still a passerby to her, it can be seen that her parents have taught her really well.
"Tina, starting next week, you don't have to work at the front desk anymore, you can go directly to the thirty-second floor as an assistant, okay?"
Tina moved her lips and was about to tell Lareina that she might not be able to do it when Vincent's voice came.
