Love and Fortune A Gamble for Two (Angela and Chester)

Chapter

69

Chester had installed the function Rosalind requested, yet she had no plans of leaving. Instead, she settled beside him and struck up a conversation. "Chester, how are you and Angelina doing lately?" "Fine."

"How's your baby? Is she easy to care for?"

"Hmm."

"I learned that Angelina has a background in fashion design. If she's available, I'd love to discuss it with her."

Chester was momentarily stunned. He recognized Angelina's talent. "Her designs are unique. You wouldn't get them."

"I love special designs, Chester."

"Mgm."

"After hearing your thoughts, I feel even more compelled to discuss this further with her."

Although Chester remained silent, Rosalind found herself intrigued. The level of admiration Chester expressed made her wonder just how exceptional Angelina's design skill truly was. "Are Angelina's designs great?" Rosalind asked after getting back.

Megan nearly choked on the water. "They're just average."

While Angelina's designs were alright, they were certainly far worse than hers. "Why do you suddenly want to know?"

"When I asked Chester for help with the plug-in today, he mentioned that most people find Angelina's designs difficult to understand."

Megan was speechless.

"Why hasn't Alexander visited you lately? He used to follow you every day, but it's been a while since I've seen him," asked Rosalind. "Why are you always focused on men? One moment, it's Chester, the next, it's Alexander. Do you feel you can't live without one?" Rosalind's heart began to race as she suddenly thought of Chester.

Megan turned to her and asked, "What's wrong with you? You pushed for a new feature in an already flawless mini-program. Both Isa and I believe that your suggestion isn't particularly Chap 69

useful."

"You won't know if it's useful until you try it."

Megan set her work aside and asked, "Did you visit Chester on purpose?" "Nope."

Rosalind kept her feelings secret, but she couldn't hide them from Megan. She was unsure when she started liking Chester, but he frequently occupied her thoughts, especially during her free time. Initially, she found him unremarkable, viewing him as just an ordinary person. But later... "You talked to Nora for a long time that day. She said men change after their wives give birth. Are you expecting something?"

"What are you guys discussing?" Isadora asked as she entered. "I just finished a coffee meeting with my former boss, and he shared some suggestions. I took detailed notes. Would you like to take a look at them?"

The discussion was abruptly cut off, and Megan had no desire to resume it with Isadora present. She reached for Isadora's notes and went through them. "Your former boss certainly has keen insights. The recommendations he proposed are vital."

"He truly treats me well. During my time at that company, most of my colleagues were kind of "He mean to me, but he was kind to me. By the way, what were you just discussing regarding men and their wives?"

"Nothing. I think your former boss is very attentive to you."

"Yeah." Isadora also sensed that Richard was genuinely kind to her.

Despite their significant age difference, he eagerly engaged her in conversations about topics. that interested young people. She could also feel his warmth toward her.

However, after Angelina's reminder, she became increasingly vigilant. Despite knowing that Richard was a decent person, she didn't feel comfortable meeting him late at night. He had also invited her to his home for coffee several times in the evenings, but she declined each invitation. Angelina lay on the couch, petting Blanco in her arms. Emily glanced at her helplessly. "You really don't mind the dirt, do you?"

"It's clean now."
