Substitute Marriage: Reborn As The Top Big-Shot

Chapter 895: 265: Offended someone who should not be offended! _3
 

Rachel Barton kept her head down, silent.

She had said before that she didn’t want it.

But now she was complaining that it was too expensive.

If Dolores Frieman really didn’t want Delia Frieman to buy clothes for the children, why didn’t she buy them herself?

As their aunt, Delia couldn’t bear to see them in old clothes, so she had to spend her own money.

But Dolores still wanted to take advantage and play innocent.

And Delia actually believed that Dolores was looking out for her.

Silly.

She’s really silly.

No wonder she could only return to her old line of work after being rescued.

Delia smiled and said, “I understand, sister. Next time, I’ll buy cheaper ones for you.”

Finishing her sentence, she took out another bag of clothes and handed them to Rachel, “By the way, Rachel, these are yours.”

“Thank you, Aunt Delia.”

Rachel needed Delia’s gifts, so she wouldn’t falsely refuse them.

If she needed it, she needed it.

No need to beat around the bush.

And besides, Delia was genuinely buying them for the family. Since they were family, there was no need to put on a show.

Delia then said, “You should try them on to see if they fit. If they don’t, we can go and exchange them.”

“Okay.”

On the other side.

The Price’s house.

The bedroom on the third floor.

All was pitch dark inside.

Mrs. Price came upstairs and knocked on the door, “Noah, are you in there?”

Noah was the only child in the family.

Because of this, he was spoiled and had a hot temper in his early years, always causing trouble.

But later, after being harshly disciplined by society, he completely changed and shouldered the family’s responsibilities.

Mrs. Price stood at the door, knocking for quite some time, but there was still no response from inside.

Mrs. Price frowned slightly, “Noah?”

Still, there was no response.

Just then, Mr. Price came over, asking with concern, “What’s wrong?”

Mrs. Price looked at Mr. Price, and continued, “Noah. I don’t know what’s wrong with him, came home from work and locked himself in his room. He hasn’t eaten, nor opened the door.”

Mr. Price, of course, knew about Noah pursuing Delia at work, and all the turmoil it caused.

Hearing these words, he slightly frowned, speculating, “Could it have something to do with that young girl at our company?”

“Which young girl?” Mrs. Price was very curious.

Noah had dated before, but the girls were always falling over themselves for him. This was the first time that Noah had locked himself in his room because of a girl.

Mr. Price briefly explained Delia’s situation, and then said, “Actually, that young girl is quite good. It’s just that she’s a few years older than our Noah.”

“How many years older?”

“Our Noah is 25; she’s 28,” replied Mr. Price.

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Price said, “I thought it was a big age gap, it’s just three years. It’s not a big deal.”

Mr. Price laughed, “Indeed, age isn’t much of an issue, but her level of education is a bit low, and because of this, she’s still just a Sales Team Leader even now.”

Normal circumstances, given Delia’s capabilities, she would have at least been promoted to a departmental manager.

“What’s her level of education?” Mrs. Price was very curious.

“She didn’t finish junior high school,” answered Mr. Price.

Mrs. Price frowned slightly, “Hmm, that is indeed not high.”

After finishing her sentence, Mrs. Price added, “Since she’s a capable Sales Team Leader, her work ability must be strong, right?”

Mr. Price nodded, “Last month, her team made over ten million in sales. They were the top team among ten others.” She was even the toughest team leader among the group.

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Price was astonished, “If I remember correctly, the entire sales team used to make about ten million, right?”

Delia alone made ten million, which showed she wasn’t an ordinary person.

Absolutely amazing!

Mr. Price nodded, “Yes, that’s why I said that girl has quite the ability. It’s a shame she lacks a proper education.”

“What does she lack in education? Sure, education is a stepping stone, but without ability, a diploma is just a piece of blank paper! Mr. Price, I think you’re simply muddled. Ignoring such talent and not promoting her. Do you want other companies to poach her?”

Looking at Mr. Price, Mrs. Price continued, “Tomorrow, move her to a crucial position. Such a talented person can’t be snatched away by other companies!”

Mr. Price nodded, thinking Mrs. Price made a lot of sense.

Her words were like a wake-up call.

“By the way, is that young girl good looking?” Mrs. Price asked again.

Mr. Price replied, “She’s not extraordinarily beautiful, but quite fetching.”

“Is she the enduring beauty type?” Mrs. Price asked.
