CEO's Reborn Wife

Chapter 1294: Chapter 1302: Waiting for Your Marriage

”In the world, there truly exist parents who don’t love their biological children,” Jane Sampson tugged at James Black, a question slipping out inadvertently, ”James Black, do you think... could it be because I am a girl, that’s why my biological dad and mom abandoned me?”

”What nonsense are you thinking of?” James Black hugged the person in his arms tightly, ”When Bright Sampson came back, the doctor at that time said it was a mistake, not that the baby was abandoned.”

Hearing this, Jane Sampson nodded again, murmuring softly, ”That’s true, it’s a pity, that doctor has long passed away.”

Then came her nearly inaudible sigh.

”I have an apartment at five points, what do you think about using this apartment to compensate Coco Edwards for her work injury?” James Black suddenly asked.

Jane Sampson was stunned for a few seconds before regaining her composure and nodded after contemplating.

”That’s a good idea, although Coco is very determined, considering her family’s situation, giving her cash really isn’t as useful as giving her a house,” Jane Sampson also felt that James Black’s method was good, ”Money draws too much attention and makes people covetous, a house is more subtle. If we don’t tell, and Coco doesn’t tell, nobody will know.”

If nobody knows, it won’t be coveted.

Moreover, Jane Sampson thought that Coco Edwards was definitely not the kind of naive person to go spreading the word.

Decisive as always, James Black immediately had the lawyer visit the hospital that same afternoon to have Coco Edwards sign the contract and process the paperwork.

However, he did not expect Jane Sampson to receive a call from Coco Edwards.

”Little Jane Sampson, I’ve learned about the house, and I’m very grateful for how much you’re considering me, but the house is too valuable, I’m undeserving of it,” Without giving Jane Sampson a chance to speak, Coco Edwards continued, ”You listen to me first, since you’re offering me a house, you must also know about my family’s situation. You’re probably thinking I can keep it secure, but it’s not necessarily the case. I have relatives working at the housing management office, so the matter about the house can’t be kept secret. Giving it to me wouldn’t be too useful.”

As alluring as a house is, accepting it would lead to unrest in her life ahead; she’d rather not take it – that was Coco Edward’s sentiment now.

Coco Edwards saw things straightforwardly, ”I’m currently living in an apartment arranged by the company, and the company pays a high salary. This injury was an accident but also part of my duties. So, there is no need for any compensation, just add a little more to my annual bonus. When I’m better, when I have free time, give me two more days of vacation.”

”As for the house, I can’t dare to accept it now. I feel ashamed; I haven’t worked by your side for very long. If you think I’m worth it, you can gift it to me when I get married one day. I absolutely won’t decline, or you can wait until I’m thirty to give it to me,” Coco Edwards smiled gently, ”By then, if things are still like they are now, I should have the determination and courage to completely cut ties with them.”

After listening, Jane Sampson felt an inexplicable twinge of heartache.

Some people always seem happy and joyful in the eyes of others, but it’s not that they are truly without worries, not that they are actually living especially happily.

Everyone has a story; it’s just that some people are good at hiding their stories well, keeping them unknown to others.

Jane Sampson thought that the reason she and Coco Edwards became friends was probably because, in this aspect, they had something in common.

”Alright, I will wait until either you get married or you turn thirty to gift the house to you as a present. Then, I will personally buy an apartment to give to you,” Jane Sampson solemnly promised.
