Substitute Marriage: Reborn As The Top Big-Shot

Chapter 825: 253: She is like a multitude of stars, shining brightly! _6
 

The damage her original family caused her was too substantial, otherwise, Delia Frieman would have certainly been an individual of significant achievement.

Seeing the two were about to go out for a meal, Zhao Ling said, “Ella, I’ll head back to work first.”

“You go ahead.” Delia nodded.

Zhao Ling turned and left.

Delia Frieman, accompanied by Viola Thompson and Ethan Viper, arrived at a restaurant.

The two sat facing each other, with Bread resting obediently under the table.

Delia said, “They have a pretty good kid’s meal here. How about ordering one for Ethan?”

Ethan shook his head, patting his rounded belly said: “Thanks, Ella, but I just had fried chicken and right now I can’t eat a grain of rice!”

“Okay then,” Delia handed the menu to Viola, “Viola, why don’t you order?”

Viola ordered two dishes.

Delia ordered two more, but was stopped by Viola when she wanted to order more.

“Ella, we just need enough to eat. Waste isn’t necessary.”

“Alright, we’ll order more if it’s not enough.” Delia put down the menu.

After all the dishes were served.

Delia made a toast with tea instead of alcohol, in honor of Viola.

“Viola, honestly, I’m very thankful to you. Without you, we three sisters wouldn’t be where we are today.”

“Ella, let’s leave the past in the past, and you don’t need to keep it in your heart forever.” With that, Viola also raised her tea cup, “From now on, let’s look forward.”

Delia nodded, “You’re right, Viola.”

Once the words were spoken, the two drank the tea in their cups.

Delia then shared some recent work advances with Viola.

Upon finding out about Delia’s current salary, Viola was not at all surprised, she could see that Delia had a real knack for the job, “Ella, your future is certainly not limited to this.”

Hearing this, Delia looked somewhat crestfallen, “But my educational level is too low.”

In her company, many team members had higher education levels than Delia, and if not for her personal sales performance accounting for half of the whole team, she wouldn’t be in a position of team leader.

“I can’t deny that, from certain perspectives, education is indeed important. But, capability is also crucial. As long as you can benefit the company, the company will surely give you a reasonable position.” Upon saying this, Viola continued, “The society we live in does not judge status by education. For instance, Irene, a businesswoman from Fanlta, didn’t even finish primary school. So Ella, never let this be a source of inferiority, you are truly deserving!”

“Is that true?” Delia asked, surprised.

“Hmm.” Viola nodded slightly.

Probably because she never attended university, Delia revered cultured individuals and completely believed words of college students.

Especially when these words come from college students from first-rate global universities like Viola.

This reminder from Viola was timely for her.

It was as if a lost soul in the desert suddenly found their direction.

“Viola, thank you.”

Viola replied, “Ella, don’t mention it, I always speak based on facts. I look forward to your growth!”

“Hmm,” Ella nodded, “I will work hard.”

She was determined to show Viola the most perfect form of herself.

After the meal, Delia went to settle the bill while Viola did not try to stop her.

This was also considered as an approval of each other.

Coming out of the restaurant, Delia said, “Viola, I have to head back to work now, so I can’t accompany you any longer.”

Viola nodded slightly, “Go on and work, Ella. I will take Ethan and Bread out for a bit longer.”

“Alright, I’ll get going.” Delia smiled, “Goodbye Viola, Goodbye Ethan.”

“Goodbye Ella.” Ethan waved his hands energetically.

Delia turned and headed towards the company.

As soon as she arrived at the company, she was stopped by Noah Reed.

“Sis.”

Delia squinted slightly, “Sir Noah, please make way, I have to work.”

“Sis, are you upset?”

Delia couldn’t be bothered with him.

But Noah stood directly in front of Delia, “Sis, I talked with Manager Zhang about it, it doesn’t matter if you’re late.”

Hearing this, Delia took a deep breath, “If that’s the case, you come with me right now.”

“Sis, you have something to tell me?” Noah was very excited as he followed Delia’s steps.

The two of them found an empty meeting room.

Delia locked the door.

“Sis,” Noah asked, “are you really going to agree to be my girlfriend?”

Delia just looked at Noah, “Firstly, I’m already twenty-eight this year and you’re just twenty-five. Do you know the gap three years can make?”
