Chapter 373 Calvin's Ambition
Chapter 373 Calvin's Ambition
"Well, Mrs. Murphy, it's getting late, I'll go prepare dinner first. It won't take long for Mr. Murphy to come back." Bella checked her phone and got up to walk towards the kitchen.
Violet realized that it was time to pick up the kids, so she put down the fork in her hand and went upstairs to change her clothes and get ready to go out.
It was early when she had picked up the two kids.
Violet made a call to Stanley.
The phone was soon connected and Stanley's low voice came through, "Hello?"
"Honey, are you off work yet?" Violet asked as she drove.
The two kids hugged the front passenger seat and listened with their ears open.
Stanley looked at the number of papers still in front of him, rubbed his brow, and answered somewhat tiredly, "Soon."
"Then how about me and the two kids coming over to pick you up?" Violet said as she looked into the glowing eyes of the two little ones.
Stanley raised his eyebrows, "Pick me up?"
"Yeah, it's been you picking up and dropping off us, and we hadn't picked you up once, how about letting us pick you up today?" Violet said with a smile.
Stanley felt fresh and raised his chin slightly, "Okay, come over here."
"Well, I'll see you later." Violet hung up the phone.
Arya clapped her hands happily, "Mommy, are we going to pick up Daddy?"
"That's right." Violet nodded her head.
"Good, drive, mommy!" Arya urged her.
Violet smiled and sped up the car slightly.
Stanley put down his phone and called Fraser in, "Go prepare some toys and snacks that children like."
"Toy and snacks?" Fraser froze, and then asked, "Calvin and Arya are coming here?" Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
"Yes." Stanley nodded his head.
"Got it, I'll go get ready now." Fraser finished speaking and turned to go out.
Stanley lowered his head and continued to work on the paperwork.
In about half an hour, Violet arrived at the Murphy Group.
She pulled into the parking lot and parked her car, pulled a child in one hand and headed for the elevator.
The parking lot had a direct elevator to the top floor, which was exclusive to Stanley, and she didn't have to worry about being seen by others.
Arriving at the top floor, Violet and the two kids saw Fraser waiting outside the elevator.
"Uncle Fraser." The two children waved their little hands and greeted Fraser.
Fraser responded with a smile, "Hello guys, here are the lollipops."
"Thank you, Uncle Fraser." The two children happily accepted the colorful lollipops.
Arya failed to tear it and handed the lollipop to Calvin, "Brother, please help me."
"What a nuisance." Although Calvin complained, he picked up the lollipop and offered her help.
Arya was standing across from him, staring at his move, as if the lollipop would be eaten by her brother if she didn't stare at it.
Watching the two children look so cute, Violet showed a slight smile, and her heart was about to melt.
"Fraser, thank you for the lollipop." Violet thanked Fraser.
Fraser waved her hand, "Mrs. Murphy, no need to thank me, it was Mr. Murphy asked me to get the lollipops ready for the two children. Mrs. Murphy, let's go to the Mr. Murphy's office."
"Good." Violet nodded, then held the two children's hands and followed behind him, walking towards Mr. Murphy's office.
The two little ones were here for the first time and they looked around curiously.
"Mommy, it's nice here." Arya said with a wink.
Calvin nodded in agreement.
Violet stroked the two children's heads with a smile, "Daddy's office is better."
"Really?" The two children looked at her together.
Before Violet could open her mouth, Fraser, who was on the side, spoke first, "Yes, Mr. Murphy's office, which was specially designed by a top designer, is extremely gorgeous, both in terms of furnishings and decoration. You will see it soon."
After saying that, he pushed open the door of the Mr. Murphy's office.
As soon as Arya entered, she happily ran around the office.
Calvin broke away from Violet's hand and walked towards the floor-to-ceiling window.
For a moment, the large office was buzzing with the sounds of excited children.
"How do you think? Isn’t it nice?" Fraser asked with a smile while making tea and looking at the two children.
Arya came back from a run, "Yes, it's nice."
Calvin didn't answer, still standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, one hand in his pants pocket, the other propped up on the glass in front of him, his small head tilted slightly to look out.
Seeing the skyscrapers outside and looking at the crowd of vehicles as small as molehills at his feet, Calvin was shocked. The kind of shock for being on high and looking down on all beings, his body trembled slightly with excitement.
Violet thought he was afraid of heights and was about to call him back. He suddenly turned around, his little face covered in red, "Mommy, is this the view Daddy sees every day?"
"What?" Violet was confused.
Calvin took a deep breath, suppressed his inner excitement, and said with a fighting spirit, "Daddy can stand at such a high place every day and take in the outside world, this feeling of being in control of everything is really great. Mommy, I want to be like Daddy in the future, to stand at a high place, to control everything, to be a person in power!"
Violet was in surprise when she heard that.
She did not expect that she it had stirred up his ambition.
Even Fraser was surprised.
Only the little girl looked bewildered and said she couldn't understand, so she chose to eat her snack.
Applause suddenly rang out, "Good!"
They looked over, only to see Stanley standing outside the door with applause, not knowing how long he had been here.
But judging from that sentence he just made, he should have been here for a while, at least heard what Calvin had said.
"Daddy." The two children called out to him in a good manner.
Stanley curled his lips and came in from outside, with his gaze fixing on Calvin.
To be honest, Calvin really surprised him.
But after the surprise, all that was left was pride.
It was only logical that he should be wary and disgusted by such ambitious words from a child who was not his own.
But instead of feeling disgusted, he felt relieved, as if he finally had an heir.
Stanley walked up to Calvin and looked down at the little boy, "As long as you have that ability, you will be in charge of the Murphy Group in the future!"
When those words were spoken, the room was filled with shock.
"Stanley ......" Violet frowned, wanting Stanley to take back the words.
But Stanley interrupted her, "I know what you're going to say, but it's okay."
After saying that, he asked Calvin, "Do you have that ability to inherit the Murphy Group from me?"
Calvin looked at him with confidence on his boyish little face, "Yes!"
"Good, remember your words today, I am waiting for you to take over Murphy Group from me in the future." Stanley said as he hugged Calvin.
Fraser took a breath, looking at the two children, and then looked at Violet who was tightly frowning.
He had known for a long time that Mr. Murphy loved his wife, but unsurprisingly, he still underestimated his love.
Mr. Murphy loved his wife so much that he could even give the Murphy Group to his stepson ......
Fraser fixed his gaze on Calvin's small face that was extremely similar to Mr. Murphy's and sighed in his heart.
Why wasn’t Calvin Mr. Murphy's son?
