Turning Of The Tide

Chapter 531

In Christina’s room.

It was Joseph’s first time staying in Christina’s room, but he did not feel uncomfortable. He naturally lifted the blanket and got into bed. It was as if he was at home. He did not feel uneasy or uncomfortable at all.

The two of them were discussing something side by side.

Since those three people interrupted them intermittently and dissipated their burning emotions, Joseph planned to talk to Christina about something serious. “Christina, have you seen the engagement gift list my father brought?”

“Yes, I did.” Christina adjusted the blanket and sat up. Then, she handed Joseph the list his father had given her from the bedside table.

Joseph took it. He still did not know what engagement gift his father had prepared, so he was also curious. He took it and looked at it. The list of things was quite generous. It was all shares, including some of the Turner family’s businesses. “Do you think it’s too little?”

Christina tilted her head like a little girl leaning on Joseph’s shoulder. She pointed at the list and said seriously, “Joseph, I don’t like our marriage to be tied down by these things. I especially hate those television dramas where the woman requests to add her name to all of the man’s assets, you know? Also, I hate to be like some people who fight for more engagement gifts even before getting married. I hope our relationship is pure. If I really have to take something, we’ll exchange 10% of company’s shares and forget about the rest.”

This could be considered as planting a root in each other’s company.

Christina was not young, but she had a very simple requirement for relationships. Although these things could reflect the Turner family’s attitude, she still did not intend to accept them. She could accept the benefits from the business that she. would work for with Joseph in the future, but she could not take the shares of the businesses that Joseph’s parents had worked for their entire lives with a clear conscience.

She simply did not want to appear out of nowhere and reap the harvest of others.

Christina’s thoughts were different from others. She liked to work hard for the things she received. It would give her a sense of accomplishment.

Joseph immediately understood what she meant. He pointed at the list and said, “These aren’t my father’s assets. They’re my own. You can accept them with a clear conscience.”

As he spoke, he pulled her into his arms and kissed her forehead. If it were any other woman, they would probably be jumping out of joy at this moment. However, this woman did not want it at all and even asked for an exchange.

“Put it away and explain to your father.” Christina still had no intention of accepting them. “I’ll explain to my father. I can only accept an exchange of 10% of the shares.”

The Yamin family was not short of money either. Her parents would definitely understand her actions.

Sensing the emotions in the man’s eyes and his primal thoughts, Christina quickly said. “Stop. We’ll have a truce tonight.

She had reason to suspect that this man was a literal vixen.

Seeing a little panic in Christina’s eyes, Joseph laughed. ‘Am I that scary?’ he wondered. He only required a little longer time than others. That was all. “Christina, let’s go for a run together tomorrow.” He had to train his stamina.
