The jade pendant had Mable’s name engraved on it. So, Anthony guessed it belonged to her. When he asked the servants, he learned that Mable had given it to Blair when they got married. Anthony wondered what Mable thought when she saw the wedding gift she gave Blair donated for auction. “Mable and Master Blair argued at the dinner. He forcefully carried her out of the hotel, but she got into Howard’s car in the end,” Robert continued.Anthony chuckled softly. “Interesting.” It was a pity he missed such a wonderful show. “Blair must’ve been mad when Mable got into Howard’s car.” Robert nodded. “For sure. I saw his face change.” “Ha.” Anthony smiled even brighter. He knew it was going to happen. He had long known Blair’s weak spot. So it was easy to deal with him. Now that everything was prepared, all that was left was the missing piece. Anthony looked outside the window and smiled. “Tomorrow’s weather will be great.” Robert could not understand why he was sudde
Mable gave Jacob a detailed checkup and found that his condition was much better than she expected. “You’re recovering well. It seems you’ve been disciplined with your rehab and acupressure massages. Keep it up, and you’ll be fully recovered in three months at most.” Jacob was finally relieved after hearing what she said. “That’s great!” Hannah looked at him as she blurted with excitement. Mrs. Murphy held Mable’s hands and said, “Thank you, Dr. Jefferson. “You too, Hannah. It has been hard on you during this time. You came to massage Jacob’s acupoints whenever you were free, so his speedy recovery is really thanks to you.” Hannah stole a glance at Jacob and smiled. “Aunt Debra, you’re too kind. I ought to do it for him.” The Murphies and the Thompsons were close neighbors. Mrs. Murphy watched Hannah grow up and knew she was interested in Jacob. So, she had been trying to set them up many times, but Jacob was simply slow and ignorant. Mrs. Murphy was dying of anxiety.
Hannah said, “Dr. Jefferson also said that acupressure massage has a great effect on your recovery. You have to do it.” “I’ll ask a professional masseur to do it. You don’t need to go through the trouble,” Jacob responded. “It’s no trouble at all. I’m also a professional, and I’m not charging you.” She had put off two variety shows to learn how to massage Jacob. The Chinese massage therapist who taught her even said she had learned it well and could start a business. Jacob took a deep breath and said, “Hannah, can you stop wasting your time on me? Do what you need to do!” Hannah was stunned. She bit her lower lip and said, “I don’t think this is a waste of time.” So long as it was related to Jacob, she would never think that. Jacob said coldly, “I said I don’t need it. I’ll tell the servants not to open the door for you anymore!” “You!” Hannah was furious. “Do you hate me that much?!” Jacob smiled mockingly. “Did you just realize that?” Hannah’s back stiffened. Sh
Mable’s eyes flickered, and she looked at Hannah in amusement. “Aren’t we talking about you? Why are we talking about me now?” “I’m just curious.” As Hannah said that, her eyes reddened again. “Dr. Jefferson, am I not pretty? Do I have a bad figure? Why does Jacob not like me? Everyone in Richworth knows I like him. Since I was little, people have been laughing at me for being his follower. I admit. “I’ve been pursuing him since high school. He went to the army to avoid me, but I still didn’t give up. All these years, I’ve been silently waiting for him. Now that he’s back and injured, I even went to learn professional massage techniques to help him. “Look, my hands are full of calluses. Which female celebrity is like me? My hands are so rough, and my manager keeps nagging me every day. “I did so much for him. Yet…” Hannah was saddened by the thought of Jacob’s attitude toward her. “I’ve pursued him for so many years. He should’ve been moved by now!” Mable patted her sho
‘Does Blair not want me to explain?’ Seeing as Mable did not say anything, Hannah knew she guessed it right. “Looks like it’s not suitable to be in love recently. “Dr. Jefferson, you still like Master Blair very much, don’t you?” Mable’s eyes flickered, and she smiled faintly at Hannah. “How do you know?” “I saw it!” Hannah grinned. “When we were on the same flight, Master Blair fell asleep. You covered him with a blanket and kept staring at him. It was obvious then that you liked him. If you say you don’t, I’ll change my last name.” Mable was speechless.“Although I don’t have much experience in love, I can act. I could tell from your eyes that it was true love. It couldn’t be fake.” Mable forced a laugh and did not say anything. Luckily, they arrived at the Morse Residence soon. Mable got out of the car and said goodbye to Hannah. Apart from Old Master Morse, the Morses were going to attend Luke’s birthday celebration. So, after treating Old Master Morse with acu
Martha frowned after hearing what Anthony said. “That depends on the occasion. Today’s your father’s 60th birthday.” She looked askance at Blair. “You’re not attentive at all!” Anthony smirked a little while looking innocently at Blair. On the other hand, Tracey gritted her teeth and glared at Anthony. ‘He’s doing this on purpose! ‘He seems to be helping Blair, but he’s fanning the flames. ‘Two-faced!’ Blair met Anthony’s gaze and lifted his chin coldly. He looked proud and calm. He sneered and responded lazily, “Isn’t he enough? What does it matter if I come or not?” “What are you talking about?” Martha reprimanded him softly. ‘So many people are watching. Are you trying to make things look bad?!’ Anthony said with a smile, “Bro, don’t misunderstand. I—” Blair stared sharply at him and cut him off coldly. “Don’t call me that. I don’t have a brother!” He was neither too loud nor too soft. It was just enough for people around them to hear him. Anthony’s smile f
Charles stared coldly at Blair from afar. … After greeting the guests, Blair went inside. Luke and some elders of the Fowlers were discussing something. Anthony was there, too. Blair walked in just in time to hear them talking about shares. Luke stopped talking as soon as he saw Blair. “Dad.” Blair stood in the doorway and said indifferently, “The party is about to begin. You should take your seat in the front hall.” “Mm, okay,” Luke responded.As the birthday boy, everyone rushed forward to wish him well as soon as he appeared. Luke thanked them and took his seat. On the main table were the relatives of the Fowlers. Blair sat on the left of Luke while Martha sat on his right. As for Anthony, he sat next to Martha. The two tables next to theirs were the collaterals of the Fowlers and reputable people in Richworth. Anthony looked at Blair’s glass and smiled unnoticeably. Once everyone was seated, the Fowler’s collaterals came up to present their gifts. Giv
Everyone at the table looked at Blair. Although Luke was the head of the family, Blair had the final say regarding the company. As the eldest son of the Fowlers, Blair had 20% of the shares. When Old Master Fowler passed away, he gave 15% of his shares to Blair and 5% to Tracey. Later, Tracey gave her 5% of shares to Blair. Adding on to the loose shares he recovered throughout the years, Blair held a total of 46% of the company’s shares. On the other hand, Luke only had 20% of the company’s shares. Although he did not have half of what Blair owned, he was still the company’s second-largest shareholder. The crowd looked at Anthony and Blair. Blair sat and looked indifferently at Anthony and asked, “Dad, you want him to join the company?” “Mm. I’m getting old and don’t want to manage the company’s affairs anymore. You’re too busy on your own as well, and I don’t want to overwork yourself. With Anthony helping you, you brothers can work together to make the company better.”
