Semua Bab Opening My Eyes to Reality: Bab 461 - Bab 470

With a face like Rowan's, it was unlikely anyone could truly have the heart to make things difficult for him.He held several boxes of supplements in his hands as he smiled at Susan. "Susan, these are all supplements that you can use. Try them out, and if you find them useful, let me know."Boy, was he smooth.Susan was a little caught off guard. "Oh, okay, thank you, Rowan."Rowan added smoothly, "No need to be so polite with me, Susan. We're family, and it's my duty as your son-in-law to take care of you."Natalie sat there stiffly, her eyes as wide as saucers. Rowan really had a knack for winning Susan over. Natalie recalled the first time he met Susan. Susan had wanted to give him the cold shoulder so he'd know who was the boss, and yet, by the end of one meal, Rowan had her laughing like a delighted little kid, grinning from ear to ear.Three years later, his skills were as sharp as ever.Susan smiled at him, feeling genuinely happy. "Stop fussing around and come sit down

Indeed, Rowley didn't care for childish toys, nor did he like toy cars or robots. What he enjoyed was reading books and building Lego sets.When he walked over earlier, he had already noticed that the gifts Rowan had prepared for him were all things he liked. He had intended to mock Rowan, but now, he was out of luck.Rowley's chest was feeling a little stuffy, and he stubbornly refused to give him anything but the cold shoulder. "Mr. Mattel, dinner's over. You can leave now."Leave? Rowan had no intention of leaving. And it wasn't just for today—he had no intention of leaving at all.He walked over to a pile of books, picked up the notebook sitting right at the top, and crouched down in front of Rowley. "I heard you're interested in finance. This is a summary of my experiences over the years. It'll definitely be helpful to you."Rowley glanced at the blue notebook, then at Rowan. Before he came into their lives, Rowley had heard of the legendary "Stephen" in the financial world,

A little while later, everyone else woke up as well.Wanda, who had finally gained a father, practically glued herself to Rowan, following him wherever he went like a little shadow.Rowley felt grumpy about it, but for his sister's sake, he held it in.That morning, Landon, grinning the whole time, moved all of Rowan's things to the villa on his orders. He was glad that Rowan had finally made it to the other side and that the good days had finally arrived.However, Rowley, who had always been close to Landon, was rather displeased and wouldn't stop scowling at him.Landon felt the pressure, especially when Rowley muttered the word "traitor". The single word completely shattered his emotional defenses. He sidled over to Rowley and crouched down to eye level."C'mon, big guy. It's not exactly easy for me either."Rowley crossed his arms. The way he glared at Landon coldly made him look like the miniature version of Rowan. "That's not an excuse."Landon looked like he was about to

As soon as Pamela had left, Howard called Rowan, wanting to meet up. It was time for them to have a talk, face-to-face, as well.At first, Howard had suggested a different place, but Rowan proposed Shavroula Hotel instead. Howard didn't understand why, but the moment he saw Natalie and her friend in the lobby, he immediately figured out Rowan's intentions.Natalie was likely the only woman in the world who could make Rowan, a man who had been prideful his entire life, willingly turn into a lovestruck fool.Before the food was served, Howard asked for the wine to be brought out. He downed a whole bottle on his own, perhaps needing the liquid courage to help him say what was on his mind.He then told Rowan that he had fallen for Pamela a long, long time ago. Back then, Pamela was like a goddess to them, and he had only dared admire her from afar.Then, when she started dating Connor, he had been devastated for a while, but he could still accept it. After all, Connor truly was an exc

Thinking back, Bella realized she really hadn't given Natalie a chance to explain. She stuck her tongue out and chuckled awkwardly. "I just got too caught up in my worry for you. Alright, Ben, you're dismissed."And just like that, Bella hung up the call without another thought.Completely different from before, Bella's eyes were now filled with admiration. "Rowan sure is something else. Even with amnesia, his muscle memory is still there—he literally can't get it up for another woman. Your future's looking very… fulfilling, Natalie."Discussing whether Rowan's performance was up to par was kind of weird, so Natalie quickly changed the subject and asked what was going on between Benjamin and the divorcee.At the mention of this, Bella's dramatic scoff practically blew out Natalie's eardrums. "I'm telling you—Ben has definitely lost his mind! A money-obsessed guy like him suddenly providing free legal aid? Ha! Tell me he hasn't gone crazy!"Benjamin had met that woman during a busi
