Chapter 57: I Plan to Go to Galaxy Holdings Group
Meryl wondered, “These dresses are not my size. I used to wear size S, but now I have lost weight. I am afraid that S size will be much bigger on me. What's more, Bianca bought clothes in size M. Lydia wears size M. These dresses on me might look like pajamas.”
Bianca was stunned and pointed at Meryl angrily. “You are not grateful at all!”
After saying that, Bianca picked up the shopping bag and threw it directly into the trash can.
Meryl didn’t react much and sat quietly on the sofa while eating fruit. Bianca’s actions couldn’t provoke her anymore.
Lydia shook her head and looked at Meryl with helplessness. “Meryl, if you have a problem with me, there’s no need to argue with Mom. Why don’t you stay home for lunch? You two can have a good chat.”
Lydia acted like a host and asked the servants to prepare an extra meal.
Thinking of the purpose of calling Meryl back today, Bianca patiently said, “Lydia and Dalton are getting married next month. The invitations have been printed. This matter cannot be changed. You should stop thinking about Dalton and stop making a fool of yourself.”
Meryl unexpectedly nodded and agreed, “Okay.”
Meryl said so straightforwardly, Bianca was unable to react for a moment and looked at her in surprise.
Bianca was happy to see Meryl give in. “Don’t worry, we will arrange another marriage for you. Although it is impossible to marry someone as wealthy as the Aniston family, but…”
“No need,” Meryl interrupted her.
She thought, “Since they don’t believe that I am married, I won’t explain anything. It’s better that the Stone family doesn’t know. Things will be more exciting when Chandler and I make it public.”
Meryl said, “I plan to focus on my work.”
Bianca was stunned when she heard this. “Work?”
The Stone family’s original plan was to have Meryl join Celestial Ventures Group for training right after graduation. However, after that incident three years ago, Lydia was now about to be promoted to deputy general manager of the project department. She had left Meryl far behind. Meryl now had no work experience. It was hard for her to find a decent job.
Malcolm put down the newspaper at this time. “You studied Business Administration. Since you are ready to work, you can join Celestial Ventures Group. Lydia is going to be promoted and needs an assistant. You can help her.”
Celestial Ventures Group was Malcolm’s company. When Meryl’s grandfather, Robert Stone, passed away, he made a will and transferred half of his shares to Meryl. Today, Meryl was one of the three largest shareholders of Celestial Ventures Group.
Lydia sat down on the sofa and adjusted her skirt. “In this case, I will ask the HR department to remove the recruitment information from the website. Originally, I required the assistant to have a minimum education level of a postgraduate. Meryl, we are sisters. I won’t ask you that much.”
Malcolm frowned and said helplessly, “Although Meryl has a double degree in Business Administration and Design, her undergraduate degree is indeed a bit low.”
Meryl wiped her fingers with a wet tissue and said softly, “I’m not going to Celestial Ventures Group.”
“Why?” Lydia was puzzled. “Celestial Ventures Group is a leader company in the industry. Many people are trying their best to get into the company. Why don’t you come? Is it because you have a low academic qualification and feel inferior?”
Three years ago, Meryl received the admission letter for a master’s degree, but because of that incident, she missed the admission time.
Lydia blinked in confusion. She tilted her head slightly, as if she couldn’t understand why Meryl would refuse the chance to work in Celestial Ventures Group.
Bianca frowned. “Are you dissatisfied that the position of assistant is too low? You have just graduated from college and have no work experience. Stop being picky.”
After saying that, she sighed again, “You have high expectations but low skills. You demand too much.”
Lydia pressed her lips and whispered, “I have a master's degree and started from scratch when I joined the company. Maybe Meryl has shares in the company and wants to be the boss directly.”
Lydia’s words made Malcolm’s face turn cold instantly. Malcolm sneered, “Meryl, I haven’t even retired yet. Do you want to replace me? If I handed over the company to you, I’m afraid the company will go bankrupt in a few days. Meryl, don’t be too ambitious.”
Hearing this, Meryl lowered her eyes slightly and said indifferently, “My academic qualification is too low. It is indeed not suitable for me to enter Celestial Ventures Group, so I plan to go to Galaxy Holdings Group.”
