Chapter 1303 Family First
In the restaurant where family gatherings are served, the dining table is filled with rich and delicious food.
Dingding.
Li Zitao stood up with a champagne glass and gently tapped the wall of the glass with a fork, allowing everyone present to look at him.
Not only his wife and children were present.
And Eric, Norma, Fia and her doctor boyfriend, Duchee Lan.
"The family here... today is an ordinary day, but to me, it seems like a new life... The feeling of being isolated from the world is more terrifying than I thought.
Despair and loneliness are like the whispers of a demon, corroding your spirit and thoughts day and night. Fortunately, you have always had the strength to support me in your heart... It is my family, you here. At this dining table, your family will always be the first... to respect your family."
"To my family!" Everyone raised their wine glasses and said with a smile.
"Is anyone else going to speak?" Mary squeezed her cup and glanced at the dining table. She stood up after seeing no one talking. "I have something to say."
"People outside say he is lucky Charlie. This did not mean much to me before, and I would only smile when I heard it.
But now I am extremely grateful for this lucky name. If possible, I hope this luck will always be with you...I love you, Charlie."
"Woo!" The sound of cheers and whistles sounded one after another. Mary looked at her husband who was whistling coquettishly, and smiled before her face was tense, thinking to herself, "I'll forgive him this time."
"Come on, let's raise our glasses together and wish everyone good luck."
"For luck!" He raised his glass to celebrate again, and finally he could start eating.
Little Pearl, sitting on the specially-heightened baby chair, had moist corners of his mouth, and his eyes were staring at the big lobster that was longer than her legs, and he couldn't control his saliva at all.
The foodie has been particularly interested in seafood since she was a child. When she was just feeding, she liked to eat crab meat. This made Li Zitao very proud and shouted every day. It is worthy of being my species.
"For you." Li Zitao broke off a shrimp claw and placed it on the plate in front of her.
Little Pearl licked his lips, looked at the tender shrimp meat in the crack with his eyes lit up, and looked up at his mother, as pitiful as if he was begging for something.
"No." Mary shook her head with a smile on her lips.
Pearl immediately lowered his head, peeled off the shell of the already-opened shrimp tongs with his hands, and divided it into three parts with a fork and a knife.
Aiden and Mason were already waiting with plates on their backs. If anyone who didn't know would see them, they would think that the daughter of this family was discriminated against and abused for her gender.
But this is the education formulated by Mary based on Pearl's personality, shared daily.
When you have good things, you must share them with your brothers and sisters, and this must start with everyone.
Last time when Little Mary came, Mary also shared her favorite iced salad with her sister and set an example for her daughter.
Taking advantage of this excuse, she bought her jewelry, skirts, shoes, etc. and brought her only once, and gave most of the unopened items to Little Mary.
Although her life is getting better and better now, her conditions are not many levels worse than when she was a princess before.
Every time she went to see her sister, Mary felt heartbroken. She was the sister she loved the most and looked like her the closest to since childhood.
The more heartache she felt, the more she hated Ethan. As a man, he could not even support his own family, and he was called a 'kind person' without the slightest responsibility of a man.'
hypocritical!
Mary, who was thinking about her sister's marriage, unconsciously raised her head, and her bad eyes swept towards Duchi Lan on the opposite side, making his raising his hand stiff instantly.
‘What happened? Did I do something wrong? What a cold look, why do you look at me like this... Could it be because of the last quarrel, but I have already said that I am too humble...’
Du Qi had countless thoughts in his mind, and he summed up only two words; so panicked!
Frequently hinting to her girlfriend, Fia was having a happy chat with Norma, completely forgot that her boyfriend was still sitting beside her, and the man who was about to become her fiancé.
The two of them have not seen each other for a long time. Since Norma's reputation has become increasingly famous and has been portrayed as a new generation of blond stunners in Hollywood, her time has begun to be calculated by minutes.
Every time I talked to her, I only had a few minutes, and then I kept urging her until Norma hung up the phone helplessly.
"It's so hard, why not come back and continue our business." Hearing that Norma is on the road almost every day, either filming movies, filming advertisements, magazines, radio stations...
"No." Norma shook his head firmly and said with a satisfied smile: "Although I'm very tired, I like the feeling of being a star. Under the light, I feel like I live in a fairy tale world..."
The only thing that made her feel regretful was that even though Aimo and the company had done a lot of publicity and work for her, people still focused on her body rather than her increasingly exquisite acting skills.
Just like Aimo said; you just need to stand there, bend forward gently, straighten your chest and hips, and countless men will pay for it...
And this is true. Her sexy poster photos earn more than 6 times the profits of selling them...
If we consider the cost difference between the two, this ratio will have to be several times more.
"By the way, does the company need money? I have so much money that I have no place to spend, and I don't even have time to go shopping..." Norma complained while eating small bread.
"How about 100,000? If there are 200,000, we can expand to Canada." Fia said with a smile.
"I'll write you a check back to the room... I only need 100,000? I can take out more."
"Enough...you can go and buy a house. The Jeorgica Bay on Long Island is a good choice. The dignitaries and celebrities have villas for vacation there, and they will not be conspicuous."
If Norma is allowed to live in an ordinary community, she would be watched like a rare animal in a zoo every day when she goes home.
But if she was allowed to live in Jeorgika Bay, her neighbors would be either famous artists, big stars, government officials and business tycoons, she would no longer be so conspicuous.
Moreover, as a high-level community, public security and privacy are paid more attention to, and there are many restrictions and protections. It is difficult for paparazzi to get close to, which allows her to have enough privacy and freedom.
"I will think about it seriously." After listening to Fia's introduction, Norma was really a little moved.
She now lives at No. 37 Beverly in Hollywood, and was given to her by Li Zitao, but... it is not so much her home, but it is the source of paparazzi.
Every day, countless shots are directed at every window and corner in the hospital, so that Norma has no minute to breathe.
She enjoys the feeling of being exposed to the spotlight, but occasionally she also wants to have her own private space that can completely release her emotions in a corner.
Duqi, who heard the conversation between the two, lowered his head and continued to eat the food on the plate. "A mansion that costs hundreds of thousands of dollars is really considered after saying that... I'd better continue to eat... This roast duck is so delicious."
