"Otherwise, why don’t you let her work at your company? Julie is so clever, she will surely be able to manage the company well," Mother Sampton said.
Upon hearing his wife praise their daughter’s intelligence, Father Sampton scoffed inwardly. Even though she was his own biological daughter, he was very clear about one thing; Julie was diocre in every respect. Moreover, she had quite a few underhanded tactics in her mind, but none demonstrated any great wisdom.
All the things she had done over the years, which one had not been known by others?
"A while ago, Thomas Lancaster and the others returned from abroad. Jane just hung out with these people without calling Julie at all. Jane has beco increasingly selfish lately. She knew that Julie didn’t have many friends, and she also knew that Thomas Lancaster and Yvette Quick used to be playmates for both her and Julie when they were kids, but she didn’t tell Julie that they had co back. She just monopolized these friends for herself," lanted Mother Sampton, her heart aching. "That day when Julie ca back, she was so upset that she cried."
Father Sampton glanced at his wife and felt a headache coming on. He wondered how he ended up marrying such a brainless wife; no wonder there had been a mix-up with the children back then.
Even Father Sampton himself could see that the children inside the great courtyard did not like Julie Sampton.
"Forget it. Tomorrow, I’ll have Julie go to HR in the company, and I’ll have soone arrange a position for her. It’s always not good for her to just stay at ho," Father Sampton conceded. Even if she was foolish, she was still his daughter. She might not be fit for an important position, but being an idle employee was feasible. It’s still better for reputation than saying she’s still loitering at ho at her age."
"Okay, I’ll tell her about it once she wakes up from her lunch break. She will definitely be very happy," Mother Sampton did not expect her husband to agree, and imdiately smiled. "Julie has always wanted to help you at the company, but she has never dared to tell you. Actually, she is truly very filial, seeing you work so hard every day, she really wants to share so of your burdens."
Regardless, Mother Sampton’s words finally made Father Sampton feel more at ease and more tolerant and patient towards Julie Sampton. After all, a filial daughter is better than a foster daughter who only creates trouble for him with his son.
"But don’t forget what I told you. Make a call to Jane Sampson after dinner." Father Sampton took the water from Aunt’s hand and saw his wife about to speak, he said sternly, "Don’t tell you can’t spare the ti to make a single call to Jane Sampson! A call, would it take you half an hour or an hour?"
"Even if I call her, I don’t know what to say," Mother Sampton replied, sowhat embarrassed. "It feels like she has beco more and more estranged from this ho since she got married, and she hardly ever cos back. I really don’t have anything to talk about with her."
At this, Mother Sampton sighed, "Blood is just blood. She hasn’t been by my side for more than a decade, but the mont she returns, we still connect. But a foster child is just a foster child, alas."
"Use your brain a bit smarter," Father Sampton said coldly. "Just as Julie Sampton tried to please you when she just ca back, now you go and try to please Jane Sampton! Don’t give this nonsense about blood ties, weren’t you and Jane Sampson getting along fine before Julie Sampton ca back?"
What is the distance of blood ties, if not just matters of the human heart."
