Chapter 243 Be Nobody

“Was Mr. Aniston good in bed? I heard he trained at a military academy for ten years, and his physique is strong, so he must be amazing in bed.”

At this point, Freya and Medea hugged each other and squealed excitedly.

Meryl smiled awkwardly.

There was still a man in the office.

Josh took a sip of his coffee. Seeing that the conversation was becoming increasingly explicit, he sensibly stood up to go to the bathroom.

With the only man gone, Freya became even bolder. “So, the tooth mark on Mr. Aniston’s Adam’s apple was left by you?”

“You two were that intense in bed?”

Meryl felt a bit embarrassed by the teasing.

Of all the people there, Lisha remained silent.

Lisha had not been very polite to Meryl before, and she even mocked her low education level when Meryl first joined the company.

Now, Meryl had transformed into the lady of Galaxy Holdings Group.

Lisha found it hard to believe.

“Did Meryl really win over Mr. Aniston? Why would Mr. Aniston love her? Or is she more complicated than she appears?”

But soon, Lisha understood.

In the afternoon, Meryl suddenly received a package containing a property deed.

It was personally delivered to her by the chairman’s assistant of Celestial Ventures Group, who respectfully referred to Meryl as “Lady Meryl.”

Now, everyone knew that Meryl came from the Stone family and was a true heiress.

Within half a day, the news about Meryl being Chandler’s wife spread throughout Galaxy Holdings.

In the past, Meryl was just an inconspicuous assistant in the president’s office at Galaxy Holdings.

But now, even when she went to the bathroom, someone would politely ask, “Mrs. Aniston, do you need toilet paper?”

This was actually quite unsettling for Meryl.

However, Malcolm sending an assistant to deliver the property deed was beyond Meryl’s expectations.

Upon checking, she found that the transfer procedures had already been completed without her needing to be present, and the villa was now under her name.

Meryl could even imagine Lydia cursing her behind her back.

But even if Lydia was unwilling, there was nothing she could do.

Everything about the Stone family had nothing to do with Lydia in the first place, and Meryl was just taking it back.

When work ended, Meryl deliberately chose to leave the office at a non–peak time.

As soon as she arrived in the Galaxy Holdings lobby, the receptionist informed her that someone was looking for her.

“Me? Who is it?”

“She’s in the stairwell.”

Meryl walked to the stairwell and found that the person looking for her was Lydia.

Lydia’s eyes were red and swollen from crying.

“Meryl, are you happy to see me become a nobody? After all, we were sisters for over ten years. Is this how you treat me?”

Meryl looked at her calmly, knowing that Lydia felt it was unfair due to the property transfer.

She just hadn’t expected Lydia to dare come to the company to confront her.

“Grandfather said when he passed away that the house belonged to John and me, one–half each, and it had nothing to do with you. You only occupied that house for years. It was never yours, so Lydia, don’t be so ridiculous.”

Lydia’s eyes were bloodshot. “That’s not what I meant.”

When Robert passed away, he gave Meryl shares and a house but left Lydia with nothing.

Malcolm, fearing that Lydia would be upset, took it upon himself to give the house that should have belonged to Meryl to Lydia.

What Lydia cared about wasn’t those external possessions.

What she truly cared about was Dalton, because Dalton hadn’t come home for several days.
