Jenny flashed a bright smile as she walked up to Mindy. She linked her arm with Harold's and said, "Well, look who it is! Fancy running into you here, Mindy."Mindy returned the smile. "Hey, Jenny.""So, what brings you and Miranda to the sales office? You're not thinking about buying a place, are y
Mindy forced a tight smile. If she could actually make money from her copyrights, she wouldn't have to wait for Miranda to buy them a villa.Sensing Mindy's impatience, Miranda stepped in. "Uncle Ronald, Aunt Jenny, my mom and I have some things to take care of, so we'll be heading out…""Oh, come o
Sophia handed the documents to Miranda.Miranda skimmed through them. After confirming they were the originals, she exchanged them for her copies.Once the exchange was done, Sophia let out a sigh of relief. "I'm really sorry. This is my first time handling a villa sale, and I'm still getting the ha
"Well…" Jenny's eyes flickered slightly. "Can this wait until tomorrow? I promise I'll come to buy it tomorrow!" The sales agent's expression dimmed. "Fine, let's talk tomorrow. However, I'm afraid there's nothing I can do if someone else decides to buy the unit in the meantime." Jenny gritted her
At that thought, Jenny couldn't help but feel a twinge of jealousy. Among the three Sutton brothers, the eldest was doing the best. There was no doubt about that. He was a business owner and had pulled ahead from normal families like theirs long ago. Next was their household. Although Harold might
Cynthia caught what Jenny was trying to tell her. "You're saying that Miranda bought the villa?" "Yes, she's really made something of herself! Unlike Quincey, who could only get a dead-end job at the power plant…" Jenny sighed. "How could a young woman like Miranda get that much money?" Jenny cov
Leonard continued, "That's not a problem. Once the payments come in and we have more cash, we can pay a bit extra and buy the villa from someone else." Rena's lips twitched. She wanted to retort that who would buy a second-hand house as a marital home? Nonetheless, her husband had made his point. C
Cynthia changed into indoor slippers and glanced around the living room. She noticed several large packed boxes in the corner before sitting silently on the couch. "Lionel, Mindy, are you clearing out your house?" Mindy said with a smile, "No, we're just packing up some bedding and clothes.""Have
Going downstairs, Miranda found Aren and Paul still sitting at the same spot as before. They were facing each other over the chessboard, deep in thought. She wondered if she had dreamed of taking a nap. "Mimi, are you up already? Come help me take a look. Paul is something else. He's already beaten
On second thought, Sawyer figured that Sam was Miranda's older cousin. It was normal for him to be annoyed after seeing through his intentions. After all, it was natural for families to feel protective over young women like Miranda. Sawyer quickly put on a smile. "Mr. Cooper, you're right. Since I'
Sawyer answered, "Alright."Soon, Miranda entered the house. "Grandma, did you call for me?""Come here, Miranda." Fiona beckoned her over. "Let me introduce you to the young scion of the Jensen family, Sawyer Jensen. You two probably met during the birthday banquet.""Nice to meet you," Miranda gre
Paul remained silent as he watched Sam walk away.How childish.Meanwhile, Miranda frowned. That couldn't be right. She had picked each one carefully and they all looked sweet. Sam was probably unlucky to eat a sour one. Paul and Sam picked two large baskets of strawberries and handed them over to
However, Sam's mind had long wandered elsewhere. Coincidentally, he stepped out of the study with a bright smile on his face when the maid came to call him. Sam hadn't gone to the office as he knew Miranda would be visiting. He specially came to the Garrison estate to wait for her instead. Sure en
Miranda felt that if she didn't find an excuse to get Joli out of the lab, he could easily stay there for an entire day. Then, he would pull another all-nighter. Did Joli really think he had some kind of superpower? He worked nonstop for two days with barely any sleep and no proper meals. Yet, he s
Miranda began, "Grandma, I—" "Aren, can you keep an eye on the fire for me? It's been stewing for three hours, and I just need this last touch. Make sure it's perfect, okay? It's too noisy here, so I'm going out to talk to Mimi."It sounded like Fiona had walked into the living room since the noise
Paul paused, then chuckled. "Why do you ask?"Miranda responded thoughtfully, "Because I think it's you. Am I right?"After a brief pause, he nodded. "Yeah."She smiled. "I knew it… No wonder you said we should let things calm down before making any moves. You'd already planned this beforehand, hadn
Madison sighed. "You don't get it."Sebastian gave her a puzzled look."I'm so stressed out," Madison wailed."What can I do to help?" When he saw the tears in her eyes, Sebastian panicked."I'm not getting enough sleep… Can I cut the morning run by ten minutes?" she sobbed."Sure," he said.Madison
