Chapter 34
Sherry was beautiful and dressed in designer brands.
She glanced at Adele a few times, noting that Adele had a clean and elegant air about her, and her gaze showed some scrutiny, but she didn’t express it outwardly.
Instead, she extended her hand with e
Adéle shook her hand, “You’re too polite.”
for a self–introduction, “Hello, Adele, I’m Sherry. Please guide me in the next few days.”
“I graduated from T University with a master’s degree this June. Adele, which school did you graduate frorn? You-”
She just graduated earlier this year?
So, Sherry probably has little to no work experience, but they’re already asking her to replace Adele?
However, this was just a normal assumption.
Perhaps Sherry had her unique strengths?
For example, regarding education, there were plenty of master’s graduates in the office, but she was still the team leader.
Thinking this, Adele gently interrupted Sherry’s words, saying, “Shwe have a meeting in a bit, so let’s talk about work first.”
Sherry coquettishly exclaimed, “Ah, look at me, I almost forgot about the main business. Let’s talk about work first.”
On the way to the meeting, Sherry lowered her voice and asked, “Adele, I heard that President Franklin is very handsome. Is it true?”
Adele nodded, “Mmm.”
Sherry was clearly eager to meet him, “Hearing you say that makes me even more excited to meet President Franklin. It’s a pity that Secretary Jake said President won’t be coming to the company today…”
Adele didn’t know that Franklin wouldn’t be coming to the company today.
However, Franklin had many personal businesses, so it wasn’t surprising that he didn’t come to Collins Group every day.
By noon, Sherry dragged her to the cafeteria to eat. After picking up their fo
Adele took out her phone and called Isabella.
Sherry teased her, “Calling your boyfriend?”
“No, I’m calling my daughter.”
“Your daughter? Are you married?”
“Yes.”
On the other side, Isabella was video calling with Julia And Franklin was also there.
When Isabella saw them, she pouted, “You guys are bad. You secretly ate together without taking me.”
“Because you’re going to school, sweetheart. After/class, Auntie will pick you up, and we’ll have dinner together later, okay?”
“That’s more like it.”
Isabella said this, then glanced at Franklin.
Franklin picked up a piece of food for Julia before saying, “What would you like to eat tonight? I’ll have someone prepare it for you.”
Isabella finally looked happier and began listing all the food she liked to eat.
Franklin was just listening nearby.

After Isabella finished, Julia praised her clothes, “The clothes you’re wearing today look really good. They sur you perfectly.
“Really?”
Julia smiled. “Of course, they do.”
She then asked, “How was your day at school? Did you get along with the other kids?”
The conversation flowed easily, with Julia and Isabella chatting happily. Franklin rarely interrupted, instead eating his meal slowly with a knife and
fork.
Unaware, the waiter looked over at them and assumed they were a family of three, sending an envious glance toward Julia.
At this moment, Isabella saw that Adele had called her on video.
The call was one that Adele had asked for earlier in the morning.
But now, Isabella was enjoying the conversation with Julia, and she was reluctant to hang up the call with Julia.
This morning, when she had seen Adele holding another child, she hadn’t been very happy.
But today, during class, the teacher had said that parents are the ones who love their children the most, and in every mother’s heart, her child is unique and irreplaceable.
That had reassured her.
Adele noticed that she hadn’t answered the call for a while, so she got worried and called the teacher.
The teacher, who was in the children’s lounge, chuckled when she heard the reason for the call,
“Don’t worry, Isabella is fine. She’s currently video calling with her dad and what seems to be an auntie. Hold on, I’ll tell her –
