“Mom? Why are the people very happy to see grandpa?” Jack asked curiously.
She could only give the credit to the loving nature of the Northerners.
“Jack, how about I tell you the story of the Northern Province and its contribution to the country?” Amanda started.
Jack nodded his head eager to learn about his grandpa’s land.
“Diamond Country today is a very prosperous land. But it wasn’t always like this before”
“There was a time when people are contented to eat three meals a day. It was a very simple way of living. And people are very happy”
“Those are t
After the Golding family finished their lunch, Amanda bathed the kids and set them for their nap time.She appreciated the efforts of the servants to make the kids’ room as comfortable as possible.She saw a baby crib beside Jack’s bed and she knew how much thought was put into it.While waiting for the kids to wake up, Amanda decided to have her tea in the garden while reading a book.She thought she wasn’t tired so she didn’t try to have a nap but the familiar feeling of the garden made all her muscles relax and she instantly fell asleep.She didn’t notice a pair of eyes watching her carefully from the moment she sat at the garden.
“Don’t say that” she felt scared hearing her father’s words.Sebastian doesn’t know how long will they keep on dancing the same tune but he was determined not to give up on Amanda.“Give chaos to those who want it,Create peace to those who need it.When your world starts to crumble,Will you be left under the rubble?”Sebastian recited a meaningful poetry before he dismissed Amanda.
The next day, Jack and Penny woke up early excited about the activity for the day.The servants have prepared their horse-riding clothes and Amanda was gearing up the kids when Simon arrived.“Where’s Pa?” Simon casually asked.“If he hasn’t changed his routine, I bet he has already inspected the stable” she said without looking at Simon.Simon reached out to carry Jack but little Jack wanted to be a big boy and walked by himself.He decided to carry Penny instead.“What happened to your hand? Did you get into a fight last night?” Simon just shrugged his shoulders.
When everyone was settled in the dining area, the family had a sumptuous meal and the atmosphere was very lively.Mainly due to Jack’s stories how he successfully ridden a horse.The experience gave him so much joy and he was really looking forward to another round of horse-riding.Too bad they needed to go back to the Metropolitan.“Mom, can we come back here every weekend?” Jack asked expectantly.“It would be tiring for all of us to go back every weekend. How about every vacation instead?” she looked at her father who just nodded in agreement.“But it’s not tiring when we us
Simon just chuckled at the irritated Mark.They were driving towards the airport when Amanda’s phone rang.“Hello?” Amanda could not hear the other line clearly.She was hearing static sounds followed by a voice machine.“Hello?” she greeted again waiting for someone to speak.“Hello! Welcome to ‘how to make babies dot com’” the voicemail said.She quickly ended the call knowing that it was a prank call.She’s receiving such calls recently.She would jus
To prepare for the masquerade ball, they decided they needed to shop for appropriate clothes.Mark felt annoyed having Simon constantly joining them everywhere.It’s like Amanda was having a chaperone everywhere she went.Who would have thought that the murderous man is also a clingy brother?But he couldn’t get rid of him, could he?Since Amanda is attending with Simon, they decided to buy matching clothes.“Little Mandy, look. This one is very sexy.”“It will show your skin and curves and will attract a lot of men.”
As the most luxurious hotel in the Metropolitan, the masquerade ball will be held at the Windmills Hotel.Mark and Amanda decided that they will just book suites at the hotel and let the old ‘Hunters’ to take care of the kids.It would save them travel time as well.As the ‘hotel manager’ Mark was very busy recently preparing for the event.He checked the bookings made by the guests and made sure the socialites are properly placed according to their preferences.At the same time Dexter Henley is also busy monitoring the set-up of additional security cameras.Actually, this is a security nightmar
The masked man slowly turned his head to face her and lowered his eyes to look at her arms.He squinted his eyes and immediately set off his murderous aura.“I’m so sorry, young master Mills” Valerie came out from nowhere and went to Amanda to discreetly pull her hands.“Pardon my sister. This is her first time attending such occasion” Valerie immediately created a distance between them.“Little Mandy, young master Mills doesn’t want to be touched.”“This is an open secret within the high society” Valerie gave her a lecture.She looked at the masked man again
