Chapter 1697 Uncle Ned’s Only Good as a Husband

Author: Tiny Mountains
Celeste nodded. "Yes, my dad said we're moving back to Hill Villa tomorrow. Who knows when we'll be back?"

"Don't worry. Uncle Ned often acts up and moves the whole family there; you guys will return in less than a week. Come on in." With that, Isobel took Celeste's pillow and said, "You can sleep in my bed."

The two of them slept together. Celeste's eyes were wide open as she said, "Isobel, I want to change fathers with you. I like your father so much. He's very patient and makes me feel safe."

Hearing Celeste's words, Isobel was extremely proud. Though she agreed with Celeste, she had to say something to comfort her. "It's the same having him as your uncle, isn't it? We're all family, and he loves you, too. Besides, your father is pretty great; he doesn't express his feelings easily. He definitely loves you."

Celeste turned to lie on her side. "But I still like your father!"

Isobel hugged her from behind. "Think about how sad your dad would be to hear that. He's so smart that he

    At the airport, Isobel finally saw Joshua. They hugged each other as soon as they met. After all, they'd always gotten along well, and there wasn't much of an age gap between them. Isobel had never been clingy, which was what Joshua loved about her."It's only been a few months, but you've become thinner and tan," Isobel told Joshua."Well, I am a basketball player and also the team captain. Plus, I've been very tired because of my studies. You should prepare for that—MIT's pretty strict with these things," Joshua said.Joshua was quite handsome. He used to be one of the most outstanding youths in Genovia and was now even more outstanding than before. He only had to stand there to attract attention.Isobel nodded. She was double majoring in programming and wireless technology, ready to put her nose to the grind.Once she officially started her studies at MIT, she was constantly exhausted and rarely saw Joshua. They were both busy and would occasionally text each other for a while.

    Isobel returned to MIT. Half a year later, Joshua graduated. He stayed in Genovia for a short time before going to Windmere City to take over Merrilyn's business. It was once under the control of a trust fund but now fully belonged to Joshua. He had become the president of a company and was worth billions of dollars.Joshua actually wanted to start his own business, but he couldn't go against his family's wishes, especially since he was the oldest child.In the year he returned to Windmere City, Joshua was 25 years old.Coming from a family of three generations of businessmen and the halo of his genius, Merrilyn's business seemed like a joke to him. After Joshua returned, he kept busy reorganizing and expanding the business.This reorganization took four to five months.In the autumn, Joshua had already expanded the company to twice its original size, and the scope of operations had also increased by a lot. He officially changed the name of the company to "Centerfold Corporation".

    Joshua's lips curled slightly to reveal a disdainful and mocking expression. There was also a large poster of Zoe on the bus next to him.She was in every corner of this city.Joshua sped up and returned to his home.It wasn't far from his grandfather's house. Michelle had requested it so that he could take care of Raymond.He stayed in a high-end neighborhood that had only been completed last year. He'd bought the best unit available—200 square meters and decorated in toned-down luxury. It was truly a waste for him to stay in such a beautiful place alone.Joshua took off his suit jacket and poured himself a glass of red wine. He sat on the couch and turned on the television.As soon as it came to life, Zoe's face appeared on it. "Have a cool beer."He pursed his lips tightly and turned off the TV.He leaned back against the sofa and scrolled through his phone.Shannon had texted him to ask whether he was used to living in Windmere City. She'd also sent him links to several re

    On Joshua's way to work the next day, he received a news alert while waiting at a red light. "The new top celebrity, Zoe Wale, signed an endorsement agreement with one of Windmere City's top makeup brands, Cece Cosmetics, yesterday."She had made it big and was no longer the nobody from the past.After arriving at the office, Joshua was about to look at some documents when a call came in.It was the president of Cece Cosmetics, Mason Wakefield.When Merrilyn was still alive, she had a business relationship with Cece Cosmetics. After Joshua took over, he didn't pay much attention to these businesses that focused on women. He developed more businesses like heavy industry and cables, so he had less contact with Mason.However, Mason had always wanted to hook up with this new star of Windmere City.Joshua was well-known in Genovia and a member of the renowned Lawrence family. His family background alone was enough to wipe out 99 percent of the competition.Still, in Windmere City, J

    It was Zoe.She wore a white sweater, a short black skirt, and white knee-high boots. Her dark hair cascaded over her shoulders, accentuating the translucence of her skin. She was tall and thin but not in places that shouldn't be. In short, she was the type men would covet, with her full breasts and slender waist.Zoe was the sweet-looking type and wasn't arrogant in the least.She carried a small bag and held her phone in her hand. It looked like she had been calling someone earlier.Her gaze landed on Joshua for a split second before flicking away."I'm sorry for being late, President Wakefield," she said apologetically."It's okay, it's okay. Zoe, come here. This is President Lawrence of Centerfold Corporation. Sit here." Mason was in his forties and knew exactly what to do in these situations. He knew Joshua was interested in Zoe.He stood up and moved aside, letting Zoe sit beside Joshua.Joshua did not object.Her floral scent immediately enveloped him.He remembered sh

    "What are you looking at?" Joshua asked."Oh, it's nothing." Zoe also felt that she had lost her composure just now and adjusted her emotions.No one at the table dared to make Zoe toast them anymore. Everyone started talking business.Mason naturally wanted to talk to Joshua about a collaboration between Centerfold Corporation and Cece Cosmetics. He mentioned how often he and Merrilyn had worked together when he was still alive; he hoped they could continue with this.Joshua did not give in easily.Zoe took a few more glances at Joshua.Joshua looked back at her. "Have you fallen for me?"Zoe's face instantly turned red. "Oh, no. I'm sorry for causing you to misunderstand."Joshua ignored her and returned to the topic at the dining table. He didn't know why they suddenly started talking about art. When they talked about painting, some people were filled with disdain at painters and said, "They're just painters in name. Can they really paint?"Zoe did not have a good impressio

    At the hotel's entrance, Joshua saw two cars parked there. One was a red Mercedes-Benz with the lights on inside. Zoe was sitting in the passenger seat. Joshua didn't know who was in the driver's seat, but it was probably her manager, Melissa.Zoe was looking around; he didn't know what.Joshua also looked around. Then, he saw a Haagen-Dazs ice cream shop on the other side of the road.He could not help but lower his head and chuckle.He then told the chauffeur to buy a single scoop of vanilla-flavored ice cream.This was the only flavor she ate.On the other hand, Zoe was pleading with her manager. "Melissa, all I want is a single scoop of ice cream. Please, please, let me have it! I swear I won't eat anything high in calories tomorrow!""No, no, no! You had a big meal tonight, yet you still want to eat ice cream. The ice cream calories are 150 calories. Are you deliberately trying to gain weight?" Melissa said with a mixture of affection and sternness."Just this once. I won'

    At that time, Zoe was studying at the Blica Academy of Arts, which was different from Joshua's. Their schools were quite far apart, and she had to take a long ride to get there. Once, she became nauseous and vomited in the car. Joshua took care of her and brought her to his dormitory. For some reason, one of his dormmates said, "Your sister's here, too? I bet your parents had to sell another house to send her here."The dormmate even pretended to look like life was hard."Cut it out," Joshua replied expressionlessly.At that time, Zoe had just gotten to know Joshua. They were at an ambiguous stage and had yet to learn about each other's families. Because of that, she thought he came from a family that struggled to make ends meet.Many people in Merania sold everything they had to let their children study abroad. They gritted their teeth to let their children survive abroad for four to five years. After all, the cost of living in Emmeria was very high. Their family had to have it to

    Benjamin walked to her side and suddenly hugged her. It was as if there were thousands of words that could not be said. Jacey did not refute. It was as if the two of them had known each other for a long time. It was as if they had known each other for a long time."Your mother did a good job with this exhibition," Jacey said."It's good. After all, you're an expert in this field," Benjamin said. "Or if you have any requests when you get married, tell my mother and let her customize the most beautiful jewelry for you.""Married?" Jacey didn't understand.She had never thought about marriage. Why did she feel so close to her when Benjamin mentioned it?She still felt quite confused."I'll treat you to a meal later?" Benjamin said. "What do you want to eat?"Jacey's eyes lit up. "Hotpot? How about a hotpot?"Benjamin smiled and said, "I thought you had a profound hobby. This is it."Jacey smiled again.Jacey didn't like the feeling of being surrounded by people, so she chose the

    Kenny smoked as he spoke. He had the look of a veteran in society. It was hard not to believe that he was a nouveau riche who did not hesitate to sacrifice the lives of his subordinates to save money."Sir, you've found the right person. Come and take a look." The workshop owner said. Then, he whispered a few words into Kenny's ear and asked, "Can you accept it?""What's so unacceptable about that? I'm definitely showing it to Party A. These people grew up in the countryside. What kind of milk have they drunk? I can't tell if it's true or not," Kenny said."Alright, alright," the workshop owner said with a smile."Just don't make it obvious. I'll go take a look at the manufacturing workshop." Kenny said.The owner of the workshop was initially quite shy, but Kenny said that he had ordered a lot, so the other party agreed.As soon as he entered the workshop, Jacey secretly turned on the pinhole camera when the workshop owner was not paying attention and filmed the production proce

    Jacey felt that under Kenny's serious and unsmiling appearance, there was a soft and warm heart.This note looked like it had been around for a long time. It was unknown how long Kenny searched last night before he found it and gave it to Jacey so easily.Jacey left.However, she did not expect that something would happen on her first day there.She brought a vacuum camera and made her clothes look like rural women's. After finding the milk production point, she said that she wanted to order milk in large quantities because she heard that the milk here was very cheap.The people in the workshop looked at each other and said, "I'm not selling!"The people in the workshop were very smart and vigilant. Their workshop had a fixed delivery channel. This woman was alone and was unlikely to be here to order. They found an excuse and sent Jacey away.No matter how much Jacey dawdled, the other party refused to let her in.For a moment, Jacey didn't know what to do. She was quite depres

    Jacey was a little stunned. She really didn't know much about what the parents were talking about.Moreover, she hadn't interacted with Benjamin for a few days. Moreover, when Ashlyn came to visit this time, she didn't say a word about him. It made her feel very uneasy. She even wondered if he didn't mean that at all. It was all her own wishful thinking…For the past few days, Benjamin had not come to look for Jacey. She had not contacted him either.However, a few days later, Jacey received a Whatsapp message from Benjamin. There were many photos. It was a rather high-class living room. There were boxes in the living room. The living room was simple and noble, like a top-notch courtyard house.[This is the showroom and display cabinet for my mother's medieval jewelry. How about letting your mother take a look?] Benjamin said.[Where is this place? This place is so beautiful.][My mother's dowry. The courtyard house in Genovia.] Benjamin said.Jacey thought to herself, "As expec

    Today, Benjamin had already returned home."How is it? How's your first time meeting your in-laws alone?" Calvin teased Ashlyn."It's quite good. I'm preparing to hold a medieval jewelry exhibition and then let my employees learn medieval video skills. I said that I wanted to use their jewelry as an exhibition, but they didn't even want the deposit. How generous," Ashlyn said lazily as she leaned against the sofa."It's… it's over?" Calvin looked at Ashlyn and said in surprise.Benjamin sat there and smiled."What else?" Ashlyn asked."What are you going to do this time? Aren't you going to look for your daughter-in-law? Did you see what she looked like?" Calvin poured a cup of tea for Ashlyn.After so many years, Ashlyn still hadn't changed from her usual macho self. In fact, she was even more macho than before. Perhaps Calvin had been the one to deal with everything after marriage, developing Ashlyn's habit of not using her brain.Of course, it only meant that she didn't use

    For some reason, Ashlyn felt like crying when she saw this. In the past, these jewelry had traveled to another country. Now, these jewelry were all back with stories.She thought about how the person who owned these jewelry had brought them overseas and brought them back…She felt that the Irving family was worthy of admiration.Linda had gone out at some point. Seeing that Ashlyn was looking at her very seriously, she didn't disturb her.When she came in again, she was carrying a cup of coffee. The fragrant Americano she'd just ordered from the coffee machine on the first floor. It was made from good coffee beans.She handed the coffee to Ashlyn."Have a cup of coffee when you're tired. Anyway, these jewelry don't have long legs. They won't run away on their own," Linda said. "You can come and take a look whenever you want. I've always been here."Only then did Ashlyn feel that she had been watching for an hour or two, but she had always been like a pious primary school student

    On Saturday afternoon, Ashlyn drove to Jacey's house, a very simple villa.Ashlyn knew that writers liked to live in such a quiet place because they had inspiration in such a place.Jacey's mother, Linda, was already standing on her steps to welcome her.Linda was dressed in a Chinese-style robe. She looked very ancient, but because she was slender, she looked especially good. She looked like a fairy.Ashlyn was dressed in a very fashionable modern outfit. She was wearing a knee-length skirt, pearl earrings, and earrings. She looked especially round and beautiful. One look and one could tell that she was the kind of person who had never experienced the blow of life."I'm Jacey's mother. Nice to meet you, Mrs. Conrad." Linda reached out and held Isobel's hand. "Jacey said that you're coming to our house to take a look. I am so happy. I specially brought all the jewelry from the other houses here and packed them up. If these jewelry can be displayed in the exhibition and let everyon

    "Excuse me, how did you know about me?" Jacey asked."Oh, Benjamin's phone was on the table that day. He went to the washroom and I happened to see the photo album he was looking through. I picked it up and saw these few pieces of jewelry. You know it too. As jewelry makers, we won't let go of those rare jewelry no matter what. I asked Benjamin where these pieces of jewelry came from and he told me about you," Ashlyn said neither servile nor overbearing.She understood a girl's mentality very well. She knew that if the woman found out that the man had taken the initiative to leak her news to her parents, she would be very disgusted and feel passive. Therefore, she did not say that. Instead, she said that she had seen it herself. She even said that Benjamin was looking at these photos at that time.Jacey's heart would probably feel warm. After all, a man was looking at her photo behind her back. She should have a good impression of this man.Jacey really thought so. When she heard A

    After Benjamin returned home, he showed Ashlyn the jewelry he had taken for Jacey.Ashlyn was very knowledgeable. One look at this jewelry and she knew that it was priceless.Moreover, the girl wearing the jewelry also had extremely good skin and was extremely delicate.Calvin, who was sitting at the side, also watched.However, Ashlyn didn't just look at the jewelry. She said, "You only bought jewelry. Who is this person wearing jewelry behind you?"Ashlyn asked Benjamin gossipily."Don't ask," Benjamin said.Ashlyn smiled. "You said that you only took photos of the jewelry but didn't take photos of her. Aren't you trying to arouse my curiosity? Now that I'm curious, you're not making a move. However, I've been working on researching National Jewelry recently, so I'm lacking samples in this area. When are you going to ask this girl out? Let me take a closer look. From her appearance, I think she's dressed very well. Moreover, I can see her face from her bone structure. I think
