Chapter 139 Difficult Relationship with a Younger Sister
Although the designers participated in the competition in their personal capacity, they had to fill in their current organization when filling out the information.
If they won, it would be fine, but if they didn't win or ranked poorly, it would bring disgrace to the company!
In that case, they might even lose their jobs...
As Abigail watched the seconds tick away, although unwilling, she ultimately sighed and prepared to close the page.
Just as her mouse was about to click the "X" on the webpage, she heard Abella say, "I'll accompany you."
After this statement, not only the other people in the design department, but even Abigail widened her eyes. "Miss Medici, you??"
The CEO of the company going to be her assistant?
Was she dreaming?
"Miss Medici, is it appropriate for you to be Abi's assistant with your status?"
"If this gets out, people will laugh at her!"
"To have the top executive of the company as assistant, what qualifications does Abi have...?"
Abella didn't think much of it. "Just register."
"Miss Medici..."
Abigail wanted to say something more, but she heard Abella ask, "What's the matter? Do you think I'm not skilled enough? Inadequate abilities? Or are you afraid I'll affect your ranking?”
"No, no, no...” Abigail never had such thoughts. She just felt too guilty that Miss Medici stooped down to be her assistant.
"Get me a first place, that's the best reward for me."
The reason why Abella helped her was because she had her own unique insights into design and truly loved this industry. Even though she had experienced the dark side of this industry, she never gave up on her dream and continued to strive forward.
Although Abigail lacked confidence and was not bold enough in her designs, Abella believed that she had the qualifications and talent to be molded into a promising talent, so she planned to train her well.
"Miss Medici..." Tears of gratitude welled up in Abigail's eyes, but after a moment of hesitation, she immediately filled in her own information.
In the last minute before the application deadline, Abigail successfully submitted her application form, and everyone in the department cheered her on.
"You will definitely win the first place!"
"To be honest, I have always thought that you have a great design talent. With Miss Medici accompanying you this time, you can confidently try your best!"
"Even if something goes wrong, Miss Medici will be able to rescue you! There's nothing that Miss Medici can't solve in this world!"
"You are so lucky to have Miss Medici as your assistant."
"Abi, go for it! You can do it!"
"You will definitely make a name for yourself!!"
...
Abigail had never felt such strong expectations and blessings from everyone before, and she gratefully said, "Thank you all! I will definitely work hard!"
Then, she looked gratefully at Abella. If it weren't for Abella, she would have missed this opportunity.
"There's no need for sentimental words. After work these days, I'll help you catch up on your knowledge," Abella replied calmly. "But not today, I have something to do tonight."
"It's okay, Miss Medici. Anytime is fine," Abigail never expected to encounter a benefactor on her path of design, let alone that this benefactor would personally help her catch up on her knowledge...
She was truly lucky!
After work, Abella sent a message to Phillipe, telling him not to come and pick her up these days as she had something to deal with.
Then she called Mrs. Medici, "Mom, I have something tonight, so I won't be home for dinner. I might be home late for the next few days."
"Okay, no problem. Have a good time with Phillipe, don't worry about coming home," Mrs. Medici thought they were going to spend time together outside.
"It's work-related."
When Mrs. Medici heard that, work-related? Not done yet? Rarely does her daughter focus on work, so she smiled, "Then don't work too hard. Remember to eat. If you can't finish all the work, ask for help from others."
"Okay," Abella said gently. "I'll be busy for the next few days. There's a competition I have to participate in..."
After Mrs. Medici listened to her, they chatted for a few more moments.
Just as the phone hung up, not long after, her phone rang again. Looking at it, it was her eldest son calling, so she quickly answered, "You brat, how long has it been since you called me? When are you coming back to the country? I've been telling you five to find time to come home and see your sister, it's been several days! Should I not get angry?
She was about to lecture him when she heard the person on the other end of the phone say, "I'll be back tonight."
Mrs. Medici was somewhat surprised, "Tonight?"
This was too sudden!
"Yes, coming back to have dinner." Steven had already bought gifts and on his way back, he whispered to Patrick who was driving, "Faster."
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Medici quickly said, "No need to rush, safety first."
Great, her eldest son was coming back!
After hanging up the phone, she ordered more dishes.
Upon hearing that her older brother was coming back, Lola's heart filled with excitement. She stood at the front door, waiting eagerly, until she finally saw Patrick's car...
Patrick parked the car in front of the villa and respectfully opened the door for Steven.
Upon seeing his tall and cold figure stepping out, Lola hurriedly called out, "Big brother!"
The man with a calm expression heard her voice and his demeanor softened a bit. After all, they had grown up together. Before Abella appeared, the whole family treated her like a little princess.
It was genuine affection that had been given for eighteen years.
"You're finally back, I missed you so much!" Lola's expression was full of joy. "You're always abroad, and it's not easy to come home. Stay a few more days this time?"
A touch of tenderness appeared on Steven' face. "Alright."
"That's great!" Although Lola felt awe towards her big brother, in order to compete for attention with Abella, she boldly reached out and grabbed Steven' hand. "There's a new sister at home now, it's quite lively. With you back, it will be even more lively!"
Steven looked at her hand and calmly moved it away. "You're a grown girl, be more composed."
Although he usually didn't like to be touched by others, he showed a little indulgence towards Lola's approach and didn't get angry. His expression remained mild.
Lola knew in her heart that considering her big brother's temper, if anyone dared to hold his hand, the consequences would be disastrous!
Her big brother was already different towards her!
"How's the new sister? What's she like?" Steven asked softly.
Lola's face stiffened upon hearing this, and she quickly said, "She's, she's good... Like you, she's someone with a strong personality..."
She purposely avoided his gaze and pretended to suppress her inner fear...
This scene naturally did not escape Steven' eyes. It seemed that her sister, his own sister, was not an easy person to get along with??
"It's alright, tell me about it." Steven walked alongside her towards the main hall.
Along the way, Lola hesitated to speak, "It's just..."
She deliberately suppressed her fear and uneasiness in her eyes, struggled for a moment, then said, "In short, big brother will find out soon enough."
Steven's eyes darkened, it seemed that her younger sister had been bullied a lot?
