Chapter 537
The Young Family's Precious Daughter
Originally, Julian Sterling had not planned to tell anyone else about his plan. Although Ruby Sterling often came up with plenty of terrible ideas, she also had quite a few ideas of her own.
He glanced at Ruby Sterling and briefly went over his plan.
Ruby Sterling praised it repeatedly, thinking Julian Sterling's idea was really good. She hadn't expected that he was actually working hard for Claire Bennett and their future. It seemed she had misunderstood him before.
What a pity Old Mr. Sterling was too impatient and insisted on pushing a woman onto Julian Sterling.
Ruby Sterling frowned tightly, seeming to think of a countermeasure.
A moment later, her eyes lit up as if she had thought of something. She looked up at Julian Sterling and said excitedly, "Julian! Why don't you pretend to be sick!"
Julian Sterling frowned in surprise, not knowing what kind of trick she had in mind this time.
Ruby Sterling quickly leaned close to Julian Sterling's ear and muttered softly for quite a while.
She sneered and said, "My idea will definitely work. You know Grandpa and Grandma dote on you the most. When the time comes, won't they have no choice but to compromise? They definitely won't keep forcing you to go on blind dates!"
Julian Sterling had originally felt that Ruby Sterling's plan was a little childish, but after thinking it over carefully, perhaps it was precisely a plan like hers that could break the current deadlock.
A moment later, he answered in a low voice, "Mm, got it."
Ruby Sterling patted Julian Sterling on the shoulder and said generously, "All right then. Tonight we'll go back to the Sterling estate for dinner, and I'll definitely help you properly."
...
The Sterling estate.
Because guests were coming over today, the Sterling family servants prepared quite a lot of delicious dishes to show respect to the guests.
Emma Young, the Young family's precious daughter, had already arrived at the Sterling family home. Old Mr. Sterling was talking with Emma Young, and the atmosphere looked especially harmonious, but up to this moment Julian Sterling still had not returned.
As the sky grew darker and darker, Old Mr. Sterling's expression also became uglier and uglier, just like the darkening evening.
He even suspected that Ruby Sterling had not brought Julian Sterling back. If that happened, they would probably lose face in front of the Young family. If he had known, he would have called personally.
Just then, a car slowly drove through the gates of the Sterling family home and stopped in the courtyard.
It was the car Julian Sterling often used. Julian Sterling was back!
When Old Mr. Sterling saw Julian Sterling return, his stern expression finally eased quite a bit.
A moment later, Julian Sterling and Ruby Sterling appeared before them. Julian Sterling was dressed in a handmade suit, and his whole person looked tall, upright, and strikingly handsome. There was no expression on his face, making it impossible to tell what he was feeling.
Old Mr. Sterling beckoned to Ruby Sterling and said, "Ruby, Miss Young is already here. Come over and keep her company."
Ruby Sterling, suddenly being called out, looked speechless and nearly rolled her eyes.
She and Emma Young were not familiar at all, okay!
Still, appearances had to be maintained, so Ruby Sterling decided to meet this woman head-on.
Ruby Sterling walked over and sat down beside Emma Young, greeting her politely, "Hello, Miss Young."
Emma Young had never seen Ruby Sterling before in New York's socialite circles, so today was also her first time meeting her. When Ruby Sterling came over, Emma Young gave her a slight once-over before lifting a faint smile. "Hello, Miss Sterling. I've heard so much about you."
When Old Mr. Sterling suddenly invited her to visit, Emma Young had actually felt it was a bit abrupt.
After all, she was not familiar with the Sterling family at all. It was only because Father Young did not want to miss this opportunity to build a good relationship with the Sterling family that he insisted she come.
Old Mr. Sterling had just said many things to her, and she finally understood why she had come here.
So the Sterling family was looking for a woman for Julian Sterling!
Emma Young had also been present at Old Mrs. Sterling's birthday banquet that day. She had seen what happened with Claire Bennett and Hazel Lewis, and Claire Bennett had left a deep impression on her.
So now she felt a little puzzled inside.
Logically speaking, someone with Claire Bennett's status and abilities should be very well matched with Julian Sterling, so why was the Sterling family suddenly looking for a woman for Julian Sterling?
