Sally kept pounding one question after another.

"Of course not, you silly girl. You also came out from your mother's belly, didn't you?" Sean rubbed her nose and pulled her closer affectionately.

Rubbing her little head, she continued, "You are right, but Mommy, how could I get out..."

"Sally, are you hungry? Grandma Zhang has made you your favorite cookies. Do you want to eat some?"

Carla immediately changed the topic. This little girl always asked a lot of questions. Moreover, the questions were very uncomfortable at times.

"I want one! I want one! Uncle, can you carry me downstairs, please?"

She opened her arms and said like a spoiled child, pouting.

Sean took her in his arms lovingly. He loved her so much that he would literally say yes to whatever his niece asked whenever she made that face. He simply couldn't resist any requests from his cute niece.

"Sister, take good care of yourself..."

Sean said to Carla as he picked up Sally.

Although he was only 15 years old, he was to legally become an adult three years later. He knew that it was not easy for his sister to give birth to a child. Now that this child had come, she must safely give birth to it. Both his sister and the baby had to be safe. That was a herculean task in itself.

Carla waved at him with a delighted smile on her face.

It was still quite early for dinner. So Carla lay down on the bed and rested for a while. Terence was expected to return from work any moment.

Meanwhile, inside the AJ Building, things were going through a different route.

Not so long ago, the company was in a mess because Terence was away. In fact, it was anticipating the imminent collapse and closure of the company. In a short period of time, Rhys had turned a blind eye to Eunice's behaviors and employed a bunch of people from the Mu family, who went against the talents that Terence had spent years in training.

So the first thing he did once he took hold of the company again was to fire those who used their illicit influences to get in. Only those employees who got in meritoriously could keep their jobs. The rest of them were to be fired immediately.

Although the AJ Group belonged to the An family, the employees weren't entirely drawn from the family. On the contrary, if someone from the family wanted to join the company, they had to possess ample qualifications and experience that was deemed necessary. Even if they were to creep in, they weren't placed in any significantly important positions.

In fact, the vast majority of the employe

elieved that he was more experienced in recruiting and managing bodyguards than Nathan.

Nathan always held a poker face. It was not until these two years that he became nicer. It was so weird that girls were attracted to his cold face. He was rather jealous about it.

"Never mind. I'll go." Nathan added, "What do you know about women anyways, buddy?"

"What do you mean? Our boss just said that he not only wanted someone who was physically capable and well trained in martial arts, but also wanted someone who knew how to have fun. You always pull a long face. How can you be better than me when it comes to having fun or assessing someone's character?"

Rainer patiently explained. Although he had never had a girlfriend, he was better than Nathan in character. He believed that it was a better asset in this regard for him.

"You think you know how to have fun? Do you know how to make a woman happy? Can you recognize when a woman is unhappy? When and why is she sad? When does she deliberately hide her unhappiness inside her heart? Do you know how to properly talk to a woman, at least?"

Nathan asked, trying to humiliate Rainer.

"I..."

Just then, Terence gave them a cold stare that made them regret their spat. He said, "What are you both doing here? I'm not asking you to pick a wife. Stop fighting over it. You're making a mockery of yourselves and this company. I'm so ashamed of the both of you."

He stepped out of the elevator amidst this clamor.

Nathan and Rainer looked at each other and immediately looked away. They were humiliated and ashamed. But the insults they both traded on each other left wounds that couldn't be so easily healed.

"Humph!"

"Humph!"
