Chapter 338 Don’t Hurt Their Self–Esteem
Robin was sitting on a small chair, fiddling with his phone, ignoring Marilyn.
Karina lowered her eyebrows in thought for a moment, then said indifferently. “If we’re not on the same level, we won’t interfere with their meeting.”
Upon hearing this, Karsyn also lowered his head to look at his phone and stopped talking.
Seeing them in such a state, Marilyn was displeased.
However, it was hard to say it out loud.
It was still unknown what the relationship between these three people and Madeline was.
Karina glanced at Robin, who was still engrossed in his phone, and signaled Karsyn to bring out the wild ginseng.
This wild ginseng was given to Camdyn by a client from the Northeast.
This wild ginseng, also known as mountain ginseng, was auctioned off by that client at the eighth Northeast Estya Expo held in Hallcester.
The price recorded at that time was ten million dollars.
The dry ginseng weighed around 80 grams, it was the best of all ginseng.
Robin told her that Camdyn’s body was not edible.
Later, Karina kept this exorbitantly priced wild ginseng in her office.
Today, I brought something to nourish Marilyn’s body.
After seeing Marilyn, he didn’t want to give her this wild ginseng.
Suddenly, on a whim, I wanted to tease Robin, so I had Karsyn bring it
out.
Karsyn whispered, “Ms. Huber, are we still giving her such a valuable ginseng?”
Karina nodded and said, “Just give it to her if you brought it, it’s not worth much money anyway.”
“Ms. Huber, this wild ginseng is worth millions, it’s such a waste for her to treat you and Mr. Bruce like this!”
Karina chuckled lightly, “Many things become uninteresting once they are priced.”
“Bring it out, how could Robin meet his mother–in–law and his aunt’s family empty–handed?”
Karsyn paused slightly, then began to laugh quietly.
She took out a delicate wooden box from the cloth bag.
Karina said with a smile, “Marilyn, Robin came over today and event brought you a ginseng plant.”
Robin looked up at Karina and shook his head.
This woman was still addicted to playing today.
Karina secretly winked at him. C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.
“Marilyn, this is a top–quality ginseng, it’s very good for your health.”
“Robin, right?”

Robin chuckled lightly, “Well, whatever you say.”
Marilyn’s eyes lit up as she laughed, “The gift Robin gave me?”
However, when she saw Karsyn hand her a small wooden box, the smile on her face cooled down.
“Robin, did you give this to me?”
Robin looked up at the ginseng, it was the exorbitantly priced one that someone had given to Camdyn.
Looking at Marilyn’s expression, not satisfied?
“What’s wrong? Isn’t this gift good?”
Marilyn looked at the palm–sized ginseng and said coldly, “Robin, you brought such a small thing here, how embarrassing it would be if Madeline’s uncle–in–law’s colleague saw it!”
“Not to criticize you, but you were really thoughtless as a child!”
“On such occasions, you should have bought some large items, like those big gift boxes of supplements sold in the store.”
“Even though it’s a bit more expensive, it’s just a matter of one or two thousand dollars. At such a time when face matters, how can you be so unambitious? You’re just carrying something in such a small box, it doesn’t even look like it’s worth one or two!”
The corner of Robin’s mouth twitched, “Uh…you want that kind of stuff in a big gift box, huh? I never buy that kind of junk.”
“You! How can you be so unreasonable!” Marilyn, annoyed, slammed the box of extremely expensive ginseng on the table.
“No way!” Robin shook his head, continuing to play with his phone,

“Summer insects cannot speak of ice!”
Seeing Robin’s indifferent attitude, Marilyn shook her head, “You, vou’re such an immature child!”
The sound of speech over here attracted the attention of a table of people inside.
“Who are those three people?” A woman in her thirties asked, pointing at the retreating figures of Karina and her companions.
Madeline’s uncle–in–law, Felix Blair, squinted at the three of them, “Probably some of Madeline’s colleagues,” he guessed.
This woman looked at Karina and Karsyn’s outfits and scoffed, “These two can’t possibly be janitors from the Eastern District Development Corporation, look at what they’re wearing, haha, really now.”
“Lower your voice, don’t hurt their pride, the pride of the underprivileged is the strongest.” Another woman covered her mouth and laughed exaggeratedly, deliberately speaking loudly.
The mocking words of a few people, taking turns to speak, could be heard throughout the entire private room.
“Mr. Blair, your niece really knows how to stir things up. She actually invited a few low–level employees to dine with us. If this gets out, it will be so degrading!” The voices of the women grew louder and louder.
Nettie May, Madeline’s younger aunt, couldn’t hide her curiosity any longer. She stood up and walked over, asking, “Sis, who are these people?”
Marilyn apologized, “Sister, they said it was Madeline who invited them. I’m really sorry, did we disturb Mr. Blair and the others?”

Nettic shook her head and said, “That Madeline, really! Didn’t I tell her? When inviting the company’s leaders, don’t invite some unsuitable people.”
Marilyn said nervously, “Uh, well… after Madeline arrives, if it doesn’t work out, let them go.”
“Oh, right, sister, that’s Robin. He helped me a lot when I was sick.”
Madeline had not mentioned Robin’s position and rank in the
company.
Never mentioned the relationship between Robin and Karina.
In their imagination. Robin was nothing more than a low–level employee who had a crush on Madeline.
Nettie looked at Robin, who was still engrossed in his phone, and snorted. “He looks decent enough, but…”
“Oh, this is the gift Robin gave me.” Marilyn handed the box of ginseng to Nettie.
“Just this little?” Nettie snorted. “Some fakes you picked up from the market, right?”
