Chapter 236 The dinner table was loaded with all kinds of scrumptious dishes.

“Hans, you haven't been home in a while; share a few drinks with your old man tonight.” Kenneth poured him a glass of wine, then turned to the girl beside him and said, “Serena, you're still young; stick to your juice.” Seizing the opportunity to act cute, Serena chimed in, “I wanna drink with big bro too.” “Good girl, wait till you're grown.” Kenneth poured himself another glass, then cheerfully asked his son, “Heard you've been doing well overseas?” “Mmm, pretty stable now.” Hans Collins had been busy abroad for several months, solving a handful of issues, and finally, things were settling down. He glanced around, noticing there were only four sets of cutlery.

Apart from his parents‘, there were only his and Serena's.

Where was his sister? Louisa chimed in while bustling around, “Bella just called; she’s not finished with some work.” “Work?” Hans Collins was a bit taken aback.

Wasn't his sister only eighteen? “You might not know this, but your sister is currently managing our fashion company. You must've heard about her achievements from overseas?” Kenneth happily clinked glasses with him, and after gulping down his drink, he sighed, “Who would've thought your sister had such impressive business acumen? She found so many problems within days of her taking charge! Even caught the main culprit behind the scenes!” Thinking about Oscar, Kenneth felt a pang of heartache.

Recalling the company’s recent activities, Hans instinctively uttered a name: “Arabella?” “Yes, Arabella Collins, your sister!” Upon hearing the term “sister”, Serena bit her lip and served her brother some food: “Big bro, this is your favorite meat; eat up.” “Thanks.” Hans Collins was usually rather aloof, but his gaze softened when he looked at his family.

Serena felt a lot better. That dimwit, instead of bonding with her brother, she was busy working! What a scatterbrain! She continued serving wine to her brother and parents, warming up the atmosphere like a cozy quilt.

Upon realizing that the person who recently stirred up the company was his sister, Hans Collins‘ gaze deepened, feeling rather intrigued.

The new collection would be launched tomorrow; she didn’t come home for dinner; she probably busy preparing, right? Although he hadn't met her and didn’t know what kind of person she was, her talent, decision-making skills, and ambition at such a young age had already impressed him.

“If your sister were a bit older, I'd really like to hand over the other companies to her.” Kenneth had full faith in his daughter's business skills, but she was still young and had just returned home; he didn’t want her to overwork.

Louisa added while eating, “Oh right, she mentioned on the phone that she'll be attending a design competition in a few days.

She's really busy; she might not be home for dinner these nights.” Ever since she returned, she had been throwing herself into work; it was a bit heartbreaking.

Initially, handing over the company was just for her to have a taste of it and to bring her some joy; he never expected her to make such groundbreaking achievements.

But she was very responsible, which was a pleasant surprise for everyone.
