“So, Tabitha, what are your plans for today? Why don’t we go shopping and have a girl’s day out?” Sylvia asked Tabitha looking hopeful.“I’m sorry, Sylvia, but I will attend Blake’s parent’s resting place today, and then we have to return to Swanville.” Said Tabitha looking at Sylvia with a saddened expression.“You’re going to see Aunt and Uncle? I haven’t visited in a long while. Can I please join you, Blake?” asked Sylvia, startled when Robert slapped the table.“What’s the meaning of this, Sylvia? He is the head of the house now, and you will address him as Master or Young Master.” Robert was exasperated over his grandchild’s lack of decorum towards Blake.“Grandfather, it’s alright. I don’t feel comfortable being considered the Master yet, so Sylvia, it’s okay that you can call me by my first name if you want. We’re family and in private quarters, and I’m sure Sylvia knows the etiquette when we are out in public.” Said Blake looking at all of them. “And yes, you can accompany us

“Listen, you brat, I haven’t been the groundskeeper for many years, but I will not have you disrupting the harmony of this cemetery. Do you get that? So, I want you and your companions here to leave and don’t cause any trouble quietly.” The man demanded towards Blake.“Sir, I don’t understand why we would leave before visiting uncle and auntie?” asked Sylvia, looking right at the man.“My God, another one. Leave and ignore everyone you see here.” The man exclaimed with a surprised expression.“What’s your name? I haven’t seen a groundskeeper who is so rude to visitors.” Said Tabitha, who was getting annoyed by this man’s attitude towards them.“What is this? Can all three see and hear me?” asked the man, looking agitated now.Blake took a long look at the man before him and lightly pushed upon his shoulder. The man felt solid to him. Fearing that the way the man was acting was that he could be a ghost.“Dam, you can even touch me. Look, my name is Harrold Leeville. I was the groundske

“It was a different time then. I had no choice in the matter, and you don’t know how my grandfather was back then. It was all for the sake of the family’s interest. Who’s to say they even remember this trivial contract between the two families.”Heather’s disdain for her husband’s actions was loosened, and then she smiled at him, seeing him in a pitiful state. She placed her hand on his cheek and kissed him on his lips.Seeing his parents showing their love for each other, Blake just smiled. The others couldn’t help but let out a small giggle at the loving couple.“I’m very proud of you, my son. You have grown into a wonderful man. With your accomplishments, your future is very bright. I have no more regrets about this life I had in the past.” Stated Blake’s father after their kiss and smiled at the three. “Blake, you’re responsible for these fine young women in your care, don’t let anything happen to them.”“Girls, please take care of Blake for me. He’s a bit headstrong sometimes but

With a deep sigh, Robert spoke. “If the marriage to the Shuler family is to be honored, Blake will have to cancel his marriage to your sister and marry the young heiress to the Shuler family. Even if she and Blake want to get out of the marriage, they are legally obligated by the contract’s specifications, if I remember correctly, but let’s tackle this when the time comes. They haven’t visited since my father died and may have forgotten it.”“Grandfather, we will be departing back to Swanville. After lunch, I’ll come back at the end of the week to bring Tabitha back to School, and we can finalize the paperwork for Elon Conglomerate. Sylvia, would you like to accompany me back to Swanville and have a position in Elon Trust Enterprises? I can inform Mr. Wheaton to evaluate and place you where we need you.” Said Blake, looking at Sylvia.“I would love to, but what about my living arrangements? I major in business financing and payroll in college.”“Leave the little things to me, and I’ll

With shock, Claire looked at Sylvia with a calm deminer like she didn’t say anything wrong. Then looked at Blake with stern eyes. To think she was about to kiss this man seeing another woman. “Alright, alright, could you please explain yourself more thoroughly to them because the way you just explained it sounds wrong? It’s a business deal that Sylvia and myself were coming up with to present to Elon Trust, and we’re not intimate with each other. If the partnership is successful, the fruits of our labor will bear a business worth millions. If you will excuse me, I have meals almost ready.” Blake explained before walking back into the kitchen, shaking his head. Julie felt that something was still amiss and didn’t back down in her mind. She could see Sylvia’s intimacy with Blake, and this explanation did not convince her. All she could do was sit back down in an huph. Claire then sat beside her and whispered about how Sylvia was the only way into Elon Trust for the investment to be suc
