Chapter 154: It's Better to Have a Baby When Women Are Young
Being in deep thought, Cathy felt her clothes pulled. She brought back herself, looked down at the tender and lovely face, stunned for a moment, and asked softly, "What's wrong with Mila?" The little girl was holding her toy, just looking at her and not talking.
Cathy's eyes moved slightly and asked, "Do you want to pee pee?"
Seeing she nodded, Cathy immediately smiled, "OK, Aunt will take you there."
She opened the door and led her out. Passing through the office area, everyone noticed and greeted the little girl one by one.
Before going out, Nick suddenly came in and looked at her and said, "Cathy, LT Company, invites everyone in our department to have a dinner party tomorrow evening."
As soon as she said, the whole department was in an uproar.
"LT Company? Is that a friendship sodality?" A boy joked, "It is better to have beautiful ladies."
Immediately a girl rolled her eyes. "Don't you boys all have girlfriends? Having something in own hand but also thinking about getting more. But... If only there were handsome men. It would be better that they could be as handsome and talented as Mr. Raman."
Cathy's mouth twitched, ignoring the comments around her, and looked calmly at Nick, "When did it happen?"
"Just now. The message came from the administration department." Nick showed her the message on her phone.
Cathy looked at it, but people could not see anything on her face. She thought about it for a second. And she looked at the crowd and asked, "Do you have time?"
Corporate social gathering was common. It was not surprising, and LT Company was much higher than Vanten Technology Company. It was surprising to invite their small company. Even if she was not interested, she should consider for her subordinates.
Sure enough, everyone nodded hardly at once. They also wanted to see what the big companies were like.
Cathy didn't have any comments either. She nodded to Nick neatly. "Okay, you reply to them that we'll be there on time."
"All right." Nick nodded, turned around and went out.
There was a rush of excitement all around.
"Discuss it after work and keep working."
Cathy smiled and gave a command, then led the Mila out.
Out of the restroom, the little girl stopped walking.
Cathy looked down at her. "What's wrong?"
Mila looked at her and slowly raised her little finger in a direction.
Cathy looked following her finger and her eyes blinked. "Do you want to go there to play?"
Over there was the company's leisure area. It was colorful and large enough.
Considering that she had stayed in the house for half a day, Cathy's eyebrows bent and smiled, "OK, let's go."
Calling Nick to bring her laptop, she sat on the sofa working and watched her play.
It was a short time. People from other departments would ask some questions when they pass by.
"Manager Lawson, is this your child?"
"Manager Lawson, is your daughter so old? She is lovely."
Some colleagues of the same rank directly started to tease her, which frightened the little girl. Cathy explained that many times and wanted to curse people.
Finally, she could only hold the forehead, close the computer and wave to the little girl, "Come here, Mila."
The little girl ran to her side, reached out her little hand and touched her face with a sweet smile on her face.
Cathy's heart was warm, and suddenly an impulse surged up. She stared at her mouth, and said word by word with careful temptation, "Do you like aunt then? If you like... Would you mind call aunt? Mila's pure eyes looked at her quietly, and the little hands were gently biting by her. There was no sign of wanting to open her mouth at all.
Cathy did not give up. With the more gentle look and the softer voice, she coaxed, "Don't you like me Mila?"
The little girl shook her head immediately, apparently understanding her words.
Cathy was delighted in her heart. She pretended to be grieving. "I don't believe that..."
Mila's long eyelashes fluttered and the pink lips wriggled slowly. It felt like something was going to come out from her throat.
Cathy's expression was bright, and she dared not blink her eyes at her. She swallowed heavily with nervousness and expectation.
Was she going to say that?
"Manager Lawson."
Suddenly a voice exploded in the silent space. It not only frightened Cathy, but also frightened the little girl to tremble. The voice that had not yet been spoken out was completely extinguished, and she leaned to her in fear.
Cathy looked upset, twisted her eyebrows and turned her head to the person who had just spoken.
Wearing a professional suit, this meticulous woman was about thirties who looked fairly good. She probably passing by to see her, stopped to say hello, but her eyebrows showed a little bad. "Manager Joyce, what's the matter?" Cathy smiled and did not get up.
The manager of marketing department, Ivy Joyce. The whole company knew that she was not married in her thirties. She was a strong woman in her career. She was a bit mean and stern. Originally, they had nothing to do with each other. She didn't care who she was, nor did Cathy. But recently, she always felt that this woman was hostile to her. She was targeted at her for no reason at the meeting, and there were all kinds of eccentricities in front of the leaders. Cathy thought maybe Ivy think she had robbed her man.
"Everyone knows you have a lovely daughter, and you don't have to take her to the company every day. Are you the owner of the company? You still play with the child at work." The woman smiled lightly and her tone was cold.
Cathy, who had become accustomed to her sour tone recently, had no irritation on her pretty face, and her voice was clear and polite. "Manager Joyce misunderstood. She is very good. She didn't bother anyone. I didn't delay my work because of her."
Ivy sneered. "You're a manager. You can't afford a nanny, can you?" If everyone take their children to the company like you do, it's going to be a nursery."
"Manager Joyce didn't have any children, so naturally you don't know the trouble of taking children. The children were too sticky. It's no use asking more nannies. Besides, I also told Mr. Brown this matter." Cathy faintly retorted, looking down at the Mila's head.
She was unmarried in her thirties, not to mention having children. Undoubtedly it poked Ivy 's pain in her words, and her face suddenly became a little terrible.
But she instantly remembered something and sneered, "It's better not to be born than to be abandoned at birth. Do you think so, Manager Lawson?"
Cathy's clean face flashed a coldness. Although Ivy did not know that Mila was not her child, the divorce was a fact.
She picked up the Mila, took up her laptop, compressed her lips and walked past her. Her pink face was radiant, and she wore a faint smile. "Older pregnant women are dangerous,... If you want to have a baby, it's better to have one as early as possible."
With the this sentence, she has gone far.Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Ivy stood behind, and her eyes were as cold as ice.
