Chapter 1224 Irritated
Upon hearing Samantha's words, a wave of irritation washed over the President's face.
The mere thought of that idiotic son-in-law from the Guzman family annoys me. “Why should she come back? She's
just a deserted wife. Her husband is in jail, and she doesn't even have the ability to win over her in-laws' hearts. She
can't even give birth to a son. After so many years of marriage, all she's managed to produce is a worthless
daughter. If she could have a son, I might think more highly of her.”
“Oh dear, don't be upset. It's not Yuri's fault that she's not feeling well... It's just fate,” Samantha said with feigned
concern, but inside, she was secretly pleased.
The President was growing more irritable. He had initially thought that after his daughter, Yuri, married into the
Guzman family, they would help him secure his footing. However, they were more trouble than they were worth,
completely incapable of winning over their in-laws' favor.
Things were a mess at that moment. The husband was in jail, and the Guzman family had lost their son. The more
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇthe thought about it, the worse he felt.
The Guzman family was on the brink of decline, and the president no longer sought their support. Fortunately,
Herald was quite capable, so he could still rely on the Cook family.
“By the way, Chillton has been busy outside all day. He never dares to slack off on the tasks you assign him. I
wonder if he knows we're having a banquet. If he comes back...” Samantha carefully observed the President's
expression.
“If he comes back, let him freshen up and head to the banquet hall. After all, the boy is destined to be the pillar of
our future.” The President's expression softened a bit after mentioning his stepson.
Even though his daughter was of no use, he was relieved that his stepson, brought by Samantha, was well-behaved
and obedient. Chillton Jenkins' humbleness had won his heart over.
He was indeed inclined to lend a helping hand. Although his stepson shared no blood ties with him, he was, after all,
a boy, and boys were considered superior to girls.
With some nurturing in the future, perhaps he could shoulder greater responsibilities.
He and Samantha were a couple who found each other later in life. His wife had passed away when Yuri was still
very young, and he then married Samantha. Samantha was his first love. Upon learning that she had divorced her
husband and was struggling to raise her child alone, he immediately began to court her.
Back then, he wasn't yet the president. It was hard to believe so many years had flashed by.
After they got married, Chillton changed his original surname to his spouse's, becoming known as one of the
Jenkins.
Upon hearing that, Samantha felt a secret joy in her heart. Her son was indeed very capable, and perhaps one day,
he might even become the president.
She was lost in such pleasant dreams and couldn't help but say to the president in a coquettish voice, “Isn't it
because you treat him well, always letting him accompany you to see the world and learn? Those people also
respect you. That's why they would even bother to give Chillton the attention.”
With that, she gently nestled into the president's arms.
The President adored her humble and submissive demeanor. He thought a woman had to be feminine, gentle,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmcompliant, virtuous, and capable of supporting her husband and educating her children. Fulfilling those roles was
what truly defined a woman. Only when she fulfilled her own responsibilities would a man truly cherish and pamper
her.
If Ashlyn were there, knowing the disgusting thoughts in the president's mind, she would undoubtedly slap him
without hesitation.
That was far too narrow-minded because a woman was worth more than only bearing children and serving men.
The value of a woman extended far beyond that.
Women could live more brilliantly, and they could also live more authentically, living freely and unrestrained, living
however they desired.
In the new era, women could have their own careers, live their own exciting lives, and do whatever they wished to
do.
Living was not just for men and not merely as an accessory to men.
Women were important in society.
Ashlyn would smash the president's face and beat him up.
“Notify Chillton to hurry back. Not only will Mr. Nolan from Section Six be present at the banquet later, but Jared,
the president of Centennial Healthcare, will also attend. I can introduce him then. These two are not ordinary
people. If Chillton can win their favor, his future will be bright.”
