Rebirth Revenge Is Everything (Ariana) novel Chapter 368

Within this year, Lambert had shown vague prospects of surpassing Arnold and Finely, which stirred fear in both households. Because of Aster's previous mocking of Khloe, Khloe would absolutely not reconcile with her even if she were to be suppressed by the third household.

However, considering old Mrs. Stone's current position, it was clear that she had begun to favor the third house.

This had caused Khloe and Aster to feel a bit anxious and worried.

Left with no choice, Khloe started to spin the wheels in her mind. Should she cooperate with Aster to take down the third house first?

But the only problem right now is that Aster might not agree to cooperate. After all, the second house had no children, so if the third household stepped down, the second household would be wary of the first household.

After all, she still has a grandson.

Considering all this, Khloe felt a bit of a headache. She thought that she needed to come up with a foolproof plan.

Meanwhile, half an hour later, Ariana and Lambert arrived as well.

Including Arnold, Finely, and others.

Ariana had just left her company. Her company was newly established and had quite a bit of work to catch up on, hence the delay. As for Lambert, given that he was tending to both companies, he was evidently a bit fatigued. However, his eyes were as sharp as ever, leaving no room for underestimation.

Recently, Lambert and Ariana have been discussing merging their two companies.

That would allow Ariana to be fully in charge of the company, and Lambert would take over the Stone Corporation.

Ariana agreed, so the two have actually been busy with that recently. Old Mrs. Stone was very happy upon seeing Ariana and waved her over with a smiling face. "Fei Wan, dear, come over here."

Ariana walked over with a smile.

Old Mrs. Stone gazed at her with kindness and asked, "How have you been recently? Lambert told me you've been busy. You young people, although you need to work hard when it's time to do so, you should never neglect your health. If you break down physically, what's the use of succeeding?"

The old lady now truly liked Ariana, so her words were from the heart.

Ah, no. It should be said that 'love me, love my dog.'

Because she really liked her great-grandson so much, she found the great-grandson's mother more and more pleasing to the eye.

Ariana naturally knew the old lady meant well, so she smiled and replied, "Yes, I know. I will try to control myself in the future." After saying this, she stroked her son's small head and turned to the old lady. "Has Lucian been bothering you lately? I'll take him home today so you can get a good sleep."

Old Mrs. Stone was greatly surprised at these words, quickly shook her head and frowned. "No problem. I'm happier when Lucian is around."

Ariana, helpless, said, "But your health..."

Old Mrs. Stone cut her off, saying, "I'm in good health."

Now, Ariana didn't know what else to say. All she could do was nod helplessly. However, after not seeing him for a day, she did miss her son. She reached out her hand, and little Lucian recognized his mother's touch and reached out with a blurred 'Mama' sound.

Ariana was naturally delighted and responded with a smile.

It's normal for a child to start talking at the age of one, and most are very smart - not to mention that her son could say 'Mama' and 'Papa' at less than a year old.

Although the time wasn't long, just a short period, because she had been unable to bear a child for some months while her sisters-in-laws all had children, the pressure was especially great. She felt even more aggrieved, particularly when she saw the coldness in her mother-in-law's eyes. It was a shame that her mother wasn't a true Madam of the Castro Family, so she had nowhere to vent her grievances.

And she dared not return to the Castro Family to divulge her problems.

For fear that the Castro Family might consider her useless.

Old Mrs. Stone, however, was quite amiable toward her grandchildren and grandchildren's wives. Seeing everyone was present, she smiled and said, "Alright, Hugh, go and call your father. Everyone has arrived; let's start dinner."

Hugh, who had just arrived, quickly nodded his head and then went upstairs to call his father down.

During this time, Finley stepped forward with Gwen and said, "Grandma, today Gwen and I went out and happened to see a jade bracelet that fits you well. So, we bought it. See if you like it." With that, he signaled Gwen to present the bracelet.

Naturally, Gwen did not dare to delay and quickly took out the bracelet.

Old Mrs. Stone showed a momentary surprise, then her eyes landed on the box containing the jade bracelet, and she said with a smile, "I'm pleased that you have this filial piety."

Seeing the old lady smile, Aster quickly seized the opportunity to continue, "These two children, even when going out for a honeymoon or something, always think of you and Father. We hardly ever receive gifts from these two, which really makes me envious." Aster said it with a smile, clearly trying to convey to the old lady that the two kids always had her and the old man in their hearts. She wanted to curry favor.

After all, Gwen was not pregnant yet, so they could only try to catch the attention of the old couple from other aspects.

Old Mrs. Stone actually understood Aster's intentions.

However, she was not angry. She only nodded with a smile and said, "Well, your respect and care make your grandfather and me very happy. But still, the focus should be on important matters." And then, she gently patted the back of Gwen's hand and said kindly, "It would make me even happier if you gave me more great-grandchildren."
