Blake awoke to pots and dishes being moved around, leaving his room with a robe. He was met with Tabby on the couch and Tabitha in the kitchen.“Morning, Tabby. What’s all this?” Blake asked Tabby, who was watching a Saturday morning program.“She wanted to treat you to breakfast for saving our mom and for just being you,” Tabby replied, still looking at the program.Blake smiled and went into the bathroom to wash up, and when he returned, breakfast was made. He sat at the counter and looked over his meal, and it was a simple meal of eggs, bacon, and toast with a cup of coffee.“Thank you, Tabitha, but you didn’t have to trouble yourself.”“It may not be as good as yours, but I wanted to thank you for saving mom. I know she can be a pain, but she is still my mom, and you went out of your way and rescued her from her plight.” Tabitha replied as she cleaned the pots she had used and tidied up the kitchen.“We’re family. It’s what I must do,” Blake replied back.When Tabitha was going to

“I wouldn’t call this the slums mom, much less middle class.” Tabitha began her argument when Blake interrupted.“Tabitha, could you give me a hand in the kitchen?”Tabitha left them and followed Blake into the kitchen holding a few dishes. Blake placed everything on the counter when they entered and turned to her.“Tabitha, I know you want to defend me but look at how adamant they are. Nothing you say will change their mind, so let’s drop it. It’s not worth it.” Blake explained that he felt it would be futile to try and explain if they were that convinced in their lie.“You’re right, and the truth will eventually come out. I hope it doesn’t bite them in the ass when it does.” Tabitha replied after sighing.Blake smiled, finished putting the leftovers into the fridge, and washed the remaining dishes. He then headed out with Tabitha in tow, not explaining anything to the mother and daughter left behind.Claire looked at the two leaving, and only then did she notice the green ring on Ta

“I’ll be meeting him Monday after he arrives from his trip and inviting him over so we can properly thank him,” Claire said casually as if it was no big deal to invite another man to their home.Blake oversaw the delivery of the truck’s arrival and placed them on charge. Entering the building, he sees Tabitha helping Sara with the employees receiving their work uniforms.“Attention, everyone. Can I have your attention?” Blake yelled over the chatter of the employees’ enthusiasm over the changes.“Thank you. Now I need six volunteers for a particular work assignment.” When three men and three women were chosen, he met them in his office and explained that they would be the new drivers for Lous Suites’ new chauffeured department. He had thought it over and decided that six would be better than only three.They were ecstatic over the news that they would work for a prestigious hotel like the Lotus Suits. Who wouldn’t want to work for a five-star hotel? After they got all the information,

Claire then grabbed her hand and looked at the jade ring on her finger, which glowed with soft light, and as Claire looked into it, it was suddenly swept with warmth throughout her body, and her eyes shined emerald for a second and returned to her natural color. The spirit Qi from the ring entered Claire and began to circulate into her meridians, then entered her heart, giving her a pleasant feeling.“Where did you get this ring? You should know that you should never place it on this ring finger until you get married.” Claire said, pulling herself out of the trance.“It was given to me by my brother and specially made for me.” Tabitha proudly said, showing the ring off.Joan looked at the jade ring and gasped. She was familiar with precious stones and jewelry, and this was an imperial jade ring worth a million. The craftsmanship to produce a ring like this was a genius of a crafter.“Darling, you said Blake gave you this? Could you tell me where he bought such a ring?” Asked Joan.“I

Tabitha walked in and saw the gifts that Blake had bought and smiled. “What a beautiful bracelet mom, and that pendant do enhance your outfit, Claire. Blake will swoon over you while you wear it.” “What nonsense are you spouting? This has got to be one of your sister’s admirers who gifted these. What has that good-for-nothing ever accomplished and given to this family? Let me say this: you must stop all this foolishness and stay away from Blake. He’s not good for your image. Just look at this bracelet. How could someone like him ever afford something this exquisite unless he stole it.” Julie went on a barrage of remarks against Blake. “Mom, I happen to know….” Tabitha was about to say they were from Blake, but he entered at that moment. “Is everyone ready? We don’t want to be late for dinner.” Blake said and walked towards the front door to leave when his mother-in-law stopped him. “And where do you think you are going dressed like that?” “Why, to the Weston dinner. Tabitha invit

“And why couldn’t Blake have gifted it?” Claire asked, starting to get upset.“Ha, ha, don’t make me laugh. How could a delivery person making a thousand a week afford a lavish gift like that?” Henry responded.“Well, Blake is no longer just a delivery person. He owns the delivery service now and will reopen it Tuesday.” Claire refuted Henry. Blake was taken aback; this was the first time Claire had stood up for him, and a warm feeling overcame him.“All the more that he couldn’t afford it. How could he if the business isn’t even opened yet?”“There’s no use explaining it to you. Come, Blake. Grandfather is probably waiting for us, and we’ve wasted our time as it is.” Claire said, pulling Blake with her into the estate. Henry shook his head in disbelief, and Samantha had a wicked grin as they followed.When they entered the foyer where they had first met. Claire let Blake’s hand go with her blushing and turned toward him—allowing Henry and Samantha to enter the dining room before Clai

“It’s fine, and I’ll go wait for you to finish in the living room. It’s my fault for arriving so late.” Blake said to her and smiled as he turned around and left the room with everyone still laughing at his back. He didn’t want to cause more problems for Claire.“Where is my grandson-in-law?” George asked, seeing that all the chairs were occupied except for his deceased wife’s, which had been vacant since her death but always had a setting for her.“He left earlier to the living room, father. Knowing his place, he departed to the living room, seeing he couldn’t be where he shouldn’t be.” Julie said before Claire could answer.“That’s not right. Brother was invited just as the rest of you. What happened?” Tabitha asked loudly.“Watch your tone, girl. Lying trash like him doesn’t belong here with the rest of the family and distinguished guests.” Julie said back to Tabitha.“Silence! The both of you. I will go and see what is going on myself. He is part of this family whether you like it

After Henry and Samantha returned, the meal continued, and there was excited chatter about the shares and the investment among everyone. The only people not enjoying the meal were Tabitha and Claire, who always would look in the direction of the living room where Blake resided.When the meal ended, the board of directors, Henry’s family, and Miss. Kingsley stated their farewells to George and left the room, leaving Julie and her two daughters there with George.“Now that everyone has left, will you kindly explain what happened in Vegas?” George asked, placing his hands under his chin.“There is not much to tell. I got carried away in my fun and had a little mishap.” Julie stated like it was not a big deal.“A little mishap? Mom, you lost fifteen million dollars at the casino, and I don’t call that a little mishap.” Tabitha stated angrily.“Fifteen million? How the hell did you lose fifteen million, pray tell?” George asked. This was not a tiny amount; this was equivalent to a quarter’
