Mr. Tycoon's Beloved Wife: The Madam No One Dares to Offend-Chapter 260: The Anderson Family Has Successors
"You can just ask me to leave politely, why use the word ’scram’? It is really hurtful."
Margaret nodded and said, "Then I will leave first. I will come back after you have finished your parting words."
After Margaret finished speaking, she quickly ran away without lifting her head. If looks could kill, she was already dead!
Of course, before she ran, she took a Centurion Card from Bruce’s pocket. When Margaret got the card, she trembled with excitement.
She knew that a man of noble and rich status like Bruce would always carry a credit card or two with him.
After all, after Bruce went to South Country, she would be the one who took care of his wife and children, so it was nothing wrong with getting some living expenses and service fees.
Looking at how happy and cheerful Margaret was, Hilla put her hand on her forehead and said, "Did you guys treat Margaret badly in the past? Did she use to live a hard life?"
Otherwise, how could a young lady from a rich family be so thirsty for money? Even Hilla, who had been in dire straits, was amazed by her longing for money!
Bruce raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "She has been like this since she was a child. She has always liked the way how money piles up."
When she was a child, Margaret just felt that bills piled up in a particularly beautiful manner.
But now, Margaret was also delighted to see stacks of credit cards.
Hilla nodded her head in understanding and said in a flattering tone, "Margaret is really good at amassing money. I even want her to work in my studio."
With Margaret helping her manage the studio, her studio would probably be even more prosperous.
"It’s a pity that she didn’t learn finance and economics well!"
Bruce reminded Hilla. Only then did Hilla remember that Miss Anderson, who had graduated from college three years later than others, had a worrying learning situation.
Hilla touched her forehead and said helplessly, "Forget about what I said."
After that, she looked at Bruce and asked sadly, "Do you have the time to contact while you are there? Can I call you?"
"You can send me a message after nine p.m. every day."
In other words, he was very busy during the day, so Hilla nodded to hide the disappointment and uneasiness in her heart.
She clearly knew that it was common for Bruce to go on business trips because there were a lot of things going on in the Anderson Group a co. But two months was just too long...
Perhaps it was because the time Bruce would be gone for two months, or perhaps it was because Bruce could not spend Christmas with her, or perhaps it was because she was pregnant and became sensitive...
In short, this time, Hilla was not as relaxed as she used to be when Bruce had gone on business trips. Instead, she was anxious and sad.
"I will come back early and spend the Valentine with you. I will be there for you when you are in labor."
Bruce put his palm on Hilla’s stomach. Maybe it was because of the telepathy between fathers and babies, the two little guys in her belly started to move.
Hilla felt uncomfortable and frowned. Bruce comforted her, "Go upstairs and have a rest."
The idea of spending Valentine with Bruce and having their babies soon after that made Hilla feel better.
Hilla felt better but she didn’t go upstairs. "I’ll stay and wait for the plane with you." On the day Bruce left, Hilla was very unhappy all day.
She didn’t know what was going on either. Bruce was always busy with work, so most often, they didn’t get to see each other during the day. Bruce also came back quite late.
Since she was heavily pregnant, Bruce moved to the study to make sure that she could have good rest.
So actually, the two of them didn’t see each other much recently, day or night.
However, Hilla became particularly unhappy with Bruce’s absence this time.
Orlenna was very worried to see her like this. If Hilla was not happy, it would affect the babies. What if the babies liked crying and mourning every day?
"Go and comfort Hilla."
Orlenna nudged Margaret, who was playing mobile games. And suddenly, Margaret’s screen turned gray.
Her avatar was killed!
Margaret could not accept it in a short time. She always won!
Then she looked at Orlenna and said in a bad mood, "Hilla is lovesick and only Bruce can cure her. You should get her Bruce!"
Orlenna did not expect Margaret would talk to her like this. She immediately slapped her angrily. Margaret was about to resurrect her avatar and fight again with full blood. Unfortunately, she was killed again before she could stand still!
As a game addict, Margaret shouted resentfully, "Mom, I’m dead again. You killed me again!"
Could she apply for a new mother?
"If you keep playing these stupid games, I will make you die very hard look!"
Orlenna ignored Margaret’s rebellion. She directly grabbed the phone and snapped out an order, "If you can’t make Hilla feel better, life won’t be easier for you."
Margaret thought to herself, "Are you kidding me? Are you sure you are my mother? This is driving me crazy."
Hilla was lost in thought while looking at her phone. Bruce had said that she had to wait until nine p.m. to send him a message, so she had been holding her phone and looking at the time attentively.
When Margaret sat down beside her, a shadow appeared in front of her. Hilla moved slightly and ignored her.
When Margaret saw this, she sniffled and threw herself into Hilla’s arms.
"Hilla, pretty Hilla, my beloved Hilla, please smile at my mother. She can give you anything you want."
Margaret’s wailing voice immediately attracted Orlenna’s attention. She instantly put on a serious face.
She asked Margaret to comfort Hilla and this wretched girl was crying? What if her grandchildren heard her cry and became crybabies?
Margaret didn’t see Orlenna’s face. She continued to speak aggrievedly, "If you don’t smile, my mom will give me a hard time. I’m your dearest sister-in-law. You can’t treat me so cruelly."
Margaret buried her face in Hilla’s belly so Hilla didn’t know whether she was crying or not, but the two little guys began to move again. Maybe Margaret was hugging her too tightly, or maybe the two babies were disturbed by her crying.
Hilla frowned and pushed Margaret gently, "Margaret, can you get up first?"
"Give me a smile. I’ll get up if you smile."
Hilla had a strong sense of deja vu as she heard Margaret’s words. She recalled that some film screw had also said something like this.
"Do I have to?" She was very uncomfortable now and was not in the mood.
"Yes, only if you smile can I have an easy life!" Margaret raised her head and looked up, blinking her big eyes that did not have a single drop of tear.
Hilla could only manage a weak smile. But the next second, her cell phone rang.
It was nine o’clock! Hilla’s eyes lit up and a big smile appeared on her face. Then she pushed Margaret to the ground.
She had smiled. Now get out of her sight!
...
Margaret turned over and looked at Orlenna with joy, "Mom, Hilla is laughing!"
Just as she had said, only Bruce could amuse Hilla. Bruce had just sent a message, and then Hilla was overjoyed by it.
Margaret could continue to play the games. But when she took the phone and had a look, the former teammates were unwilling to play with her.
Margaret wondered, ’Was I being sidelined?’
"Mom, it’s all your fault. My teammates blocked me."
Orlenna ignored Margaret’s complaints, "Hilla is still unhappy. Go and comfort her."
Margaret turned around and saw Hilla sitting in front of the window. The smile on Hilla’s face had disappeared.
Hilla looked even more dejected as she held her phone. Margaret felt a little uncertain.
"Mom, I think no one can’t comfort Hilla, other than your son."
She had never seen Hilla being so depressed before. In the past, when Bruce was on business, Hilla would be unhappy for at most two days. Soon, Bruce would send her a video call.
This time, since Bruce went to South Country, he hadn’t call Hilla.
"Mom, the task to amuse Hilla is too difficult. I’m afraid that I can’t complete it. Why don’t you ask someone else?"
"Besides you, is there anyone else free?"
Orlenna was a little regretful. If she had known earlier, she would not let Halle leave.
With Halle here, Hilla may feel better.
Bruce had left in a hurry. Although she, as his mother, was worried, she couldn’t stop him.
It was getting cold recently. Hilla was pregnant but couldn’t hang out for relaxing and stayed at home all the time. She may become more sensitive.
Orlenna saw Hilla’s sullen face and was apprehensive.
It was better to speak it out.
"I’m not idle. Don’t you free?"
Margaret was pushed by Orlenna and moved closer to Hilla again.
Hilla was holding her mobile phone, staring blankly at a message box on the screen.
The message she had received just now wasn’t from Bruce. No wonder she was so upset.
Hilla insisted that she would wait until nine.
"Hilla, it was nearly at nine o’clock. You can send a message to my brother. It was fine to send it three to five minutes ahead of time." Margaret reminded Hilla.
For Margaret herself, she wouldn’t wait for so long as Hilla.
Hilla looked at the time, pursed her lips slightly, and nodded, "OK."
Bruce was very busy after arriving in South Country so their call always didn’t last long.
He could only found time to hastily reply to her a few times.
Hilla bit her lips and hesitated. She was thinking about whether she should be a little later and wait until Bruce was not too busy.
But when it was nine o’clock, she couldn’t help but open the dialog box and typed, "Are you still busy? Have you had meals?"
After sending the message, Hilla smiled as if Bruce had replied.
Even if there was no response from him, she was so happy to send him a message.
Margaret looked at Hilla and shook her head. The man and woman in love were too crazy, and she couldn’t understand.
Just now, Hilla was not happy no matter how much Margaret did. But now, Hilla could not help but giggle even if Bruce did not reply.
"Mom, I think lovesickness is a terminal illness. It’s incurable!"
Margaret leaned Orlenna but was pushed by Orlenna.
"You’re the one who can’t be saved. Your brother has been in South Country for a week, but you’re not worried at all."
Orlenna looked at her ’broad-minded’ daughter and was a little angry. How could Margaret care about Bruce so little?
"It’s not the first time for him to go to South Country. Doesn’t he go on a business trip every month? This time, he just stayed there a little longer. I don’t need to miss him much."
Margaret muttered as she felt unfair for herself. In this family, as long as anyone was unhappy, she wouldn’t live an easy life.
If not for her optimistic and generous attitude since she was a child, she would feel inferior and possibly depressed.
It was truly a miracle that she was not depressed.
Orlenna put on a long face and said, "There were a plague, as well as social conflicts in South Country. Hilla would certainly worry about Bruce."
She was also worried and couldn’t sleep well every night these days. However, in
front of Hilla, she had to hold on.
People in some areas of South Country were allowed to sell and carry guns. Hilla did not know how Bruce, as a businessman, exploited the South Country market back then, but she knew it clearly.
If nothing was going wrong, Bruce would not have chosen to rush over during Hilla’s pregnancy.
Margaret took a deep breath, "Isn’t Bruce going only for business? He can meet those big bosses, stay in his residence, and not come out."
"It’s not as easy as you think. The merchants there are not like the merchants in our country who only know how to drink. They have their rules."
No matter how rich Bruce was, he had to follow the rules over there.
Margaret became nervous, "If my Bruce can’t come back, you won’t let me inherit the Anderson Group, right?"
Orlenna rolled her eyes at Hilla. She snorted coldly, "Stop dreaming." Margaret just joked. She wouldn’t dare to take such a big Group.
Moreover, she was engaged. If she inherited the Anderson Group, finally it would become the Jorgansens’. As soon as she thought about that, Margaret rushed to Hilla.
Looking at Hilla’s belly, she said in an earnest tone, "I think you have two boys in your belly. The Anderson family has successors!"
Hilla was waiting for Bruce’s reply. Margaret’s perplexed her.
Last night, Margaret touched Hilla’s belly, muttering that she wanted two cute little girls like Emily.
Margaret also said that she would spend a lot of money buying beautiful dresses for them in the future.
Hilla thought, ’I wonder who will pay the money in the end.’
