Chapter 49 We can't help you with this
Abella saw the familiar number on the screen, she pressed the button on the steering wheel and hung up directly.
But Mr. Wilson called again and again as if he wasn't determined.
"Something wrong?" Finally, Abella impatiently picked up, with a hint of displeasure in her tone.
"Abella, ...... I'll make it short, I saw you having dinner with the president of Q. Rowe Price Group tonight? Do you know each other?"
"Related to you?" Abella did not expect him to call and ask such a boring question, and was about to hang up.
"Abella, tell me the truth, does Romer have a crush on you? Is he pursuing you?"
Abella:?
"You didn't ask him to mess with our company, did you?"
Abella: ......
"Actually, it's good that you can fly up to become a phoenix, but you also need your mother's family to be able to take it, right?"
Abella's icy eyes were tinged with the slightest hint of coldness, "What do you mean?"
"Your biological parents are in the countryside, not to mention the dowry, it's embarrassing for you to talk about it! But Daddy can back you up, think about it, New York's richest man is your father, the dowry is also for you, you married there in style, how good!"
"......" Abella coldly smiled, "What do you want?"
"As long as you help me to connect with Romer, let us meet and make us work together again ......"
"Can't do it."
Abella was about to hang up the phone when she heard him plead, "Abella, Dad has raised you for at least eighteen years! Are you really going to let the company die without help? The company is in crisis!"
"Is it about me?" Abella said in disbelief, "I don't know how you have the gall to say this to me, it's my grandmother who raised me, and you haven't paid a penny over the years? Have you come back to see me?"
Every summer and winter, she was sent to a group of old men to learn this and that, and her so-called parents never found out all these years!
You can imagine how many times they came home!
"Daddy is busy making money and he can't help himself ......"
Abella ended the call, not bothering to waste time with him.
"Well, what did the girl say?" Mrs. Wilson, who was waiting on the side, saw Mr. Wilson's downcast look after hanging up the phone and vaguely guessed a few things, "Did she refuse?"
"I told you! Be nice to her! Don't make a scene! You didn't listen, and now it's bad!" Mr. Wilson sighed, not knowing what else to do.
Mrs. Wilson felt angry, "This isn't the only way out! That girl can't be trusted, we still have Isla, right? The Johnson family must have arranged the VIP ward. Tomorrow night, we will invite the Johnson family out to dinner and talk to them about their plight. Those two groups and the Johnson family get close, let the Johnson family help us bridge the line ......"
"That's the only way to go."
Mr. Wilson's mood improved when he remembered that the Johnson family could help, "Someone, call Isla down."
He had something to say.
Just then, Isla came running downstairs happily and said with a flourish, "Dad, Mom, I got second place in the nation for my piano piece!"
"What?" Mr. Wilson and Mrs. Wilson didn't expect their daughter to be so good, wasn't she raised by a janitor? How could she play the piano? How could she win an award?
Isla hurriedly brought her cell phone to them, "Look, here are the results! The Medici family's daughter Lola took first place and I took second!
"You're second only to the richest daughter!" Mrs. Wilson was so proud of her that she couldn't help but turn around and say, "Zhenhai, this is a great opportunity ......"
Mr. Wilson also thought so, "Isla, taking advantage of this second place thing, are you sure you can invite Remy's whole family out for dinner?"
"Even the aunts and uncles should be invited?" Isla was a little surprised.
Mr. Wilson told her about the company's predicament, but she promised, "Mom and Dad, I'll take care of it!"
"What a good child!"
When Abella got home, she suddenly found a lot of people gathered in the living room, each one complimenting Lola.
"Miss Lola, you're amazing! Winning the first place in the piano competition!"
"I'm really glad I'm helping in this house, I can listen to such an elegant piano sound and receive inculcation every day when I have nothing to do ......"
"Ms. Lola's piano is really wonderful!"
Mrs. Medici noticed Abella's return first and immediately went up to her, "Baby Abella, you're home from work? Are you tired from your first day at work? Did the company give you a hard time?"
"Miss Abella is back?"
"People in the company are saying that the person in charge today is very good and very capable! They still don't know that the person they are talking about is my baby girl hahaha ......"
Seeing everyone gathered around Abella's side, Lola, somewhat reluctantly, joined and walked over.
"Sister, you're back?" She raised an elegant smile, "Why don't we go out for a meal together as a family tomorrow? On the one hand, we can celebrate sister officially taking over the company, and on the other hand, we can welcome sister back to this family! How about that?"
She didn't mention a word about her winning the first prize, deliberately making people think that she was thinking of Abella in every way.
"Sister came back these two days, we also did not accompany her around, and let her go to work to suffer, just go out to eat a meal ......"
Lola took the opportunity to hold Mrs. Medici, while holding Mr. Medici, "OK Dad, Mom?"
Abella: ......
"I think it's a good idea." Mrs. Medici looked to Mr. Medici, Mr. Medici also nodded, "Abella what do you think?"
"I'm fine with it." Abella didn't want to spoil her parents' fun, so she went upstairs, washed up, and went to bed without thinking!
The next day, Phillipe drops her off at work, and on the way he hears that she has a family dinner tonight, his tone is a bit sour, "Didn't you promise to give me the rest of your time?"
Abella froze, "I forgot."
When she promised last night, she really didn't expect him to ......
"The family dinner also does not include me?"
"Next time."
"Then you'll have to make it up to me twice as much." Phillipe held her hand tightly, "Dinner not to accompany me, lunch to be together."
"Okay."
After a long day of work, Abella came to Lanshan Restaurant with Phillipe's transportation, "Okay, don't come to pick me up later, I'll take my parents' car back."
"Then call me when you get home."
"Okay."
The other side.
Mr. Wilson used all his influence to get a private room at Lanshan Restaurant, although it was entry level, but without the status of the richest man in New York, it was really impossible to book!
Mrs. Johnaon didn't think much of Isla, because Isla was raised by a janitor since she was a child, and she had an air of poverty all over her body, even though she was dressed in fancy clothes, she couldn't hide the occasional flash of inferiority and sensitivity in her eyes.
When she heard today that Isla had won a second prize in piano, she looked a little better, but when she heard Mr. Wilson's abbreviated request, Mrs. Johnson wiped her mouth with her napkin, "I'm afraid we can't help you with that."
