Finally Our Noble Heiress Comes Back Home のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 31 - チャプター 40

"Congratulations on the birth of your baby, Asher," Regina said sweetly. "You must be so happy, right, to finally have a child?"Asher grinned sarcastically. "It's obvious you're just making small talk. Of course I'm happy. If I were still married to you, I wouldn't have had children even when I was a grandfather."Atlas stared intently through the glass window, holding back his emotions, while beside him, Tristan also watched Regina and Asher in the mediation room, his demeanor much calmer."I'm sure Asher is trying to provoke Regina about the birth of his child," Atlas said angrily. "Damn it! Regina must be hurt."Tristan patted Atlas' shoulder gently. "Don't worry, At, my sister isn't the type to get emotional easily. Besides, what's wrong with Asher's child? There are plenty of babies born these days, so it's nothing special."Atlas looked at Tristan, confused. "Tristan, don't you get upset when Regina is constantly ridiculed for not being able to bear children? But that's not Reg

"Asher, I saw Regina at the bag boutique this afternoon," my mother said, suddenly standing in front of my desk with a scathing glare. "She bought all the latest bags from Hermès and Gucci."I snorted softly, not daring to directly anger her. "Mom, couldn't you have knocked before coming in? What if I was in a meeting with my staff here? Or on a video call with a client?""I checked the situation, Asher!" my mother said sharply. "You were just daydreaming, staring at that file!""Gosh," I muttered. "I wasn't daydreaming, I was analyzing my work. It's full of numbers, and if I get even one wrong, this company might go bankrupt. I'm a financial consultant.""Tsk, you're the husband of the company owner's daughter, no one can fire you even if you're wrong. Leika is crazy about you, and now that she has a child, she'll be even more attached to you," my mother said dismissively.I didn't want to respond to my mother's words because she wouldn't admit defeat. It was better to just keep quie

"Mr. Jeremy, before you became part of this company and before you became the husband of the owner's daughter, the Maverick hotel chain has always been the company's go-to partner for any activities and events that require third-party accommodation assistance," said Ellen Odatte, head of public relations for Ocean International Food and Beverages Supply Company, firmly."That's right, Mr. Jeremy," added Ken Roberto, operations manager. "The Maverick hotel group already knows our company's needs, and we don't even need to tell them what we need when we hold an event. Like now, I just call the operations manager, and they just ask what event we're holding, how many people will be attending, and what the theme is."Asher snorted in annoyance, as no one seemed to be taking his side."Then why are we holding a tender? If the Maverick group is guaranteed to handle all the company's events?" Asher asked, his tone sharply displeased."Because we need three hotels to handle the accommodations

"You want to sell your mother's house?"Leika's eyebrows shot up. She had just returned from the gym when her son's babysitter complained about the arrival of two men who were real estate agents.The babysitter said that Asher had called and argued loudly with his mother earlier, claiming that selling his mother's house was the only way to pay off all her debts."Why?" Leika asked again, pretending not to have heard anything."Where have you been?" Asher asked, asking back before answering Leika's question. "Your son has a fever and you're gone all day?""I already have an appointment with a yoga instructor," Leika replied flatly. "Asher, why do you want to sell your mother's house? Don't change the subject!""My mother owes a loan shark and the house needs to be sold to pay it off," Asher replied.Leika was stunned. She had long resented her mother-in-law and siblings, even though she had initially gotten along well with them.After marrying Asher, Leika learned that they were a trib

"I'm delighted to be working with you, Ms. Maverick," said Olivia Riley, a representative from the Cherrylane Hotel, another winning bidder. "This is our first experience, and considering The Maverick is renowned for its excellent handling of events like this, it's a great opportunity for us to learn more.""Oh, Mr. Riley, I'm actually new to this too. Previously, my parents ran The Maverick, and they had a large, skilled staff for this," Regina replied. "I'm here now, learning. Tomorrow, the general manager of operations and his staff will be taking care of this.""Just call me Olivia," Olivia said kindly. "Anyway, I really appreciate your help in revising the proposal before the bid.""You can also just call me Regina," Regina said. "I hope we can work together well on this project."After ensuring everything was in order, Regina decided to leave, as she still had work to do at her other hotel.Her visit to The Ocean headquarters was simply to check whether the staff who would be as
