Chapter 1342 - 1282: Seeing the Babies (2)

After all, they are mother and daughter. Sienna Johnson played with Claire for a while, and Claire allowed Sienna Johnson to hold her.

Claire nestled in Sienna Johnson’s arms, feeling warm, and gradually relaxed. Sienna Johnson teased her, and she would smile at her.

Pauline Briggs asked, "Why didn’t Adrian come back with you?"

"He’s dealing with business matters in Abyanabad."

Pauline Briggs furrowed her brow, looked at the child in Sienna Johnson’s arms, and said, "You’re still young, always being apart like this isn’t ideal... Why don’t you find a professional manager to help manage the company, and you can go with Adrian to Abyanabad."

Sienna Johnson raised her eyes, looking at Pauline Briggs. She usually doesn’t interfere with business matters, she smiled and said, "Mom, you’re so amazing to know about professional managers."

"Mrs. Smith told me while we were playing mahjong. Her old husband is quite old, and their son is not reliable, so her husband forced him into business, but whatever business he tried, he failed. They had to hire a professional manager in the end.

Mrs. Smith said that the professional manager is very capable. This year’s profits have been higher than ever before."

"..."

"With our family’s conditions, you don’t have to work yourself to death to earn money. If not, our whole family will live in Abyanabad."

"What about my grandparents?"

Pauline Briggs said, "Doesn’t Adrian have a plane? I can take Adrian’s plane and frequently travel between the places."

"Don’t you feel tired?"

"I’m doing it for you.

You and Adrian are young, it’s not good to be apart like this for long. Adrian looks like that, over time, who knows if he’ll secretly keep a woman outside."

"..."

Pauline Briggs looked at her daughter’s face and said, "You’re indeed beautiful, but no matter how beautiful, after a long time, it becomes less special.

With men, if you don’t pay attention, you’ll regret it later."

Understanding her mother, Sienna Johnson asked, "Mom, have you been upset by something recently?"

"It’s about Mrs. Carter’s daughter, she’s quite pretty, but after only three years of marriage, Mrs. Carter’s son-in-law had an affair, and the mistress isn’t even prettier than Mrs. Carter’s daughter.

Mrs. Carter said, men are often enamoured with the new and tired of the old...

You and Adrian are apart all the time, one in Orienta, the other in Abyanabad, not even in the same country; over time, problems might arise," Pauline Briggs said worriedly.

"Mom, Adrian wouldn’t do that."

"You can’t entirely trust men; you should pay more attention to Adrian... Don’t wait until Adrian gets another woman pregnant, and she comes knocking at your door, that would be so embarrassing."

Sienna Johnson wanted to tell Pauline Briggs that Adrian had a vasectomy, but such things are inappropriate to discuss with her mother.

"Mom, Adrian decided to settle down in Sileria City. He hasn’t come back this time because he’s dealing with business matters over there."

Pauline Briggs hadn’t thought Adrian would go to such lengths for her daughter, she couldn’t help but smile and said, "This way, you won’t have to be apart, that’s great, that’s great..."

Seeing Pauline Briggs’s thoughts wandering, Sienna Johnson spoke positively about Adrian, "Mom, Adrian is devoted to me, stop worrying."

Besides, even if he has second thoughts, there’s nothing to fear. I have money, daughters, sons, if worse comes to worst, I’ll just leave.

It’s not that Sienna Johnson doesn’t trust Adrian, it’s just that life is unpredictable.

Adrian loves her now, one year, two years... a lifetime is too long, no one can guarantee Adrian will love her forever.

Perhaps one day, Adrian might change his mind. Even if Adrian changes his mind, Sienna Johnson is not afraid; she has children, she’s not alone.

"These words, only say them in front of me, don’t say them to Adrian... Men will feel discouraged hearing that."

Sienna Johnson smiled, "Mom, I know."

Kiki chimed in, "Auntie Briggs, Sienna is clever, she won’t suffer."

"That’s right, Sienna takes after her dad."

Sienna Johnson shook her head, feeling speechless sometimes about her mother.

Sienna Johnson put the three children on the bed, placed the toys she bought for them on the bed for them to play with.

"Kiki, this is for Dominic, you give it to him."

Sienna Johnson gifted Dominic a model ship, the components on board could be moved, it was very interesting.

Kiki took it, "You’ve been too generous."

"I should thank you. Thanks for taking care of the kids while I was away."

Kiki hugged the ship and said, "What’s our relationship? Why be so formal? Actually, I didn’t help much, most of the time it was Auntie Briggs taking care of them. If you want to thank someone, thank your mom."

Sienna Johnson said, "She’s my biological mom, it’s only right she looks after the kids, nothing to thank."

"You cheeky girl..." Pauline Briggs lovingly looked at her daughter and said, "I owe you from my past life."

"Are children debts?" Sienna Johnson replied.

"You’ve given birth to four, slowly repay them."

Sienna Johnson looked at the children, feeling happiness in her heart. They were her sweet burden, even if they came to collect debts, she would embrace it willingly.

As they were talking, Paige Desmond entered with her youngest daughter Ella, "Sis-in-law..."

Having given birth, Paige Desmond had gained some weight, becoming more graceful. Sienna Johnson was captivated by the baby in Paige’s arms.

"Is this Erya?"

Paige Desmond brought the youngest daughter over for Sienna Johnson to see. Ella had just woken up, wrapped in a comforter, her eyes half open, occasionally yawning, utterly adorable.

"She’s really pretty, looks like you."

"Yes, she looks a lot like I did when I was young."

"Erya, I’m your aunt, you look so cute." Sienna Johnson took a rattle and played with her, the previously sleepy Ella suddenly woke up and smiled at Sienna Johnson.

"See, she’s smiling."

Claire grabbed Ella’s small hand, and the two laughed cheerfully, amusing the adults.

"Sis-in-law, where’s my brother? Why didn’t he come back with you?"

"Adrian plans to settle in Sileria City with me, so he stayed in Abyanabad to handle business. Once everything in Abyanabad is settled, he’ll come over."

Paige Desmond smiled, "That’s good. Abyanabad is quite far from here."

"How about you? When are you going back to Abyanabad?"

Paige Desmond held her daughter’s small hand, remaining silent.

Sienna Johnson said, "When I came, I met Kiya, he asked me to persuade you to go back."

Paige Desmond evidently did not want to discuss this topic, she said, "Isn’t Curly about to finish school?"

Pauline Briggs glanced at her watch and said, "Yes, it’s almost time for school to end. I’ll go pick her up."

"I’ll go." Sienna Johnson hadn’t seen her daughter in a long time, she missed her a lot.

"Alright then." Pauline Briggs handed Claire over.
