Gwynn chuckled dryly. “You’re right. No one would’ve waited for that long. I’m not upset or anything, Noah, nor am I angry or envious. In fact, I should congratulate you for scoring someone so young and beautiful!”Underneath the crystal chandelier, he said with a blank face, “Why, thank you!”They were about to wrap up their day on a sour note. So, she thought she shouldn’t stay there any longer. This villa might’ve used to be her home, but he already found himself a new girlfriend. She shouldn’t overstay her welcome.He didn’t stop her, either. Holly was sitting at her work desk in the living room, working on her homework, while tears welled up in her eyes.Gwynn walked over, and she shot up from her chair. Gripping her mother’s sleeves, she sought comfort from her, dispirited, “I’m stupid.”Holly loved her mom and she wanted her to hang out with her more often. However, she was worried that her mom would dislike her because she was just too stupid. Her face was filled with no

It was midnight when Noah returned to his bedroom. Loosening his tie, he was about to take a shower when he raised his eyes and saw Holly in her cow-patterned pajamas. She was lying flat on the bed and her buttocks were wiggling like an adorable puppy.He took off his tie and sat on the side of the bed. She snuggled up to him, held one of his feet, and acted cute with him. However, she didn’t want to say anything. He sighed before he carried her and set her down on himself. She started to scrub his abs the way she’d laundry. After a while, her fair, perky face scrunched up. “I’m stupid,” she said.Holding her tight, he couldn’t help but feel disheartened. Then, he kissed her.Back when Holly was two years old, Gladys bought her some children’s books to teach her to recognize words and read the numbers. However, his little girl just couldn’t pick up anything. The old servant must’ve tried teaching her a hundred times, too.So, he took her for an IQ test. That was when he

After a brief moment, Gwynn came back to her senses.She called her assistant over and asked her to entertain the customers while she took Anderson to her personal office. They were family, but things were a little awkward between them. She made him some tea and said, “Do you still like Fortnum & Mason?”He sat on the single couch and swept his eyes across the room. Gwynn’s doodles and sketches were everywhere. Her faint perfume odor was lingering in the air too. Now, however, he could never address her as his aunt. He stared at her while her back was turned to him and said in a husky voice, “Grandpa didn’t mean to set you up with Grayson for real. He was just testing me to see if I still had any lingering feelings.”Gwynn paused briefly before she continued making tea. Her back was still turned to him when she said, “I should’ve felt happy for you, now that Mr. Archibald entrusted you with important tasks. However, it was embarrassing how I got dragged back into the mess.

Noah stared at her with unblinking eyes. He thought he saw her getting bothered by his gesture. She was even a little bit jealous.Obviously, he still had a place in her heart.Gwynn fixed her gaze on the check. He was willing to spend this kind of money on Rosie. The fact was that he used to show Gwynn the same affection when they were in a relationship all those years ago. Back then, he did everything she wanted and cared about what she loved. It was just a simple matter of him showing the same affection to another young lady after all these years.She was disheartened by it. However, she told herself that she shouldn’t be upset for too long. Raising her eyes, she rejected him softly, “I’m sorry, Noah. This isn’t the Silvercrest Art College, and I’m certainly no college professor. I don’t think I have the knowledge to be mentoring her!”He stared at her intensely. “Are you mad?”She lowered her gaze in response. “Why should I be?! It’s your freedom to show affection and sp

Anderson cast a glance at Talia. “Got it.”After he left, Archibald served Talia strips of bacon and said warmly, “Anderson is so preoccupied with work. He’s going to need you to hold the fort down here! He’s young. So, he needs to focus on building his own empire now.”She fought back tears and responded softly, “I understand what he’s going through.”The old man was incredibly grateful for her. However, she alone knew that things would never be the same for her and Anderson. It was obvious that he merely used his drunkenness as a crutch to confess to her his real feelings. From here on out, he couldn’t be bothered to play a loving husband to her anymore. Their marriage was teetering on the brink of collapse!She couldn’t bear the thought of it. She’d do everything she could to win his heart. …Anderson was beyond drained by his work today. Evening rolled on and Archibald himself called him. The old man wanted him back home to have dinner with his wife and kids. He agre
