As his father, Old Mr. Faust knew what Mortimer was like very well. If he stayed by Alfred's side forever, he would ruin the young man's life.

On top of that, Mortimer was his son. No matter how unpleasant their shared history was, at this age, Old Mr. Faust had let go of many things and no longer wished to care about all that.

"Do you want him to come back?" Jenny was surprised. She thought that Old Mr. Faust still held a grudge against Mortimer.

He sighed, "He's my son, after all. There's nothing wrong in letting him take care of me. And with him under my watch, he won't cause trouble for you."

"Alright. We'll tell him what you said once we're back in Bardoff City. I won't guarantee whether he'll want to come back." Mortimer might actually refuse to return.

Old Mr. Faust didn't mind. "Don't worry. He'll come."

After all that they had been through, Mortimer was still the same. Old Mr. Faust didn't want to care about him anymore.

    They ate around the dining table. It was a harmonious sight.When Old Mr. Faust heard they wanted to go to Orchid Village the next day, he suggested following them along. Alec didn't really agree with that."You'd better not go, Grandpa. It's too far." They had to drive for several hours, and Alec was worried about his health.Old Mr. Faust knew what Alec meant, but he was insistent. "If I don't go now, I might not be able to again. I need to pay my respects to my friend."Jenny's grandfather was his friend for many years. It was he who told him of Jenny's identity, and that was when they arranged for Alec and Jenny's marriage. When he died, Old Mr. Faust had no means to attend the funeral when he died. Now that he was at his end, he had to at least pay his respects. Otherwise, he wouldn't know what to say to him when they met in the afterlife."Grandpa…" Alec frowned.This time, Jenny stood on Old Mr. Faust's side. "Just let him go. The air in Orchid Village is fresh. His mood m

    Jenny and Alec walked into the restaurant at night. She was unable to stop Alec from coming in the end. She didn't think that Joey would mind."Jen." Joey immediately smiled and waved at her when he saw her coming in, but when he saw Alec behind her, his smile dimmed.Jenny hadn't noticed it, but Alec had. He sneered inwardly. Now, he was confident in his speculation that Joey had other intentions with Jenny.They sat down. Then, Jenny asked in embarrassment, "Alec didn't have anywhere else to eat, so I brought him here. You don't mind, do you?""It's alright. We can ask for another set of utensils." Joey smiled. Although he minded, he had to keep up the act.Jenny wasn't surprised by this. But Alec smiled in glee when he saw that Joey was unhappy.Very quickly, Joey called the waiter over and ordered a few dishes. "Don't underestimate this restaurant because it's small, Jen. Their food tastes amazing. You'll definitely love them.""Yes. I love Parrington's food," Jenny said.

    As the three of them ate, Alec didn't speak the whole time. His purpose in coming there was actually very simple. He wanted to remind Joey that Jenny was already taken. Alec hoped he wouldn't say something he shouldn't.After dinner, although Joey was reluctant, Jenny and Alec still left, leaving him standing in the same spot, watching the two leave."I'll definitely work hard to be worthy of the Walters!" He silently vowed as he watched Jenny's back disappear from his view.In the car, Jenny glanced at Alec. "I don't understand why you had to come along. Was it really just for a free meal?""Can't I do that? I thought the restaurant just now was pretty good," Alec joked and laughed, finding it amusing.Jenny rolled her eyes at him. She found it hard to believe Alec's words. "Cut the crap and tell me the truth. What's your real purpose?""What purpose could I have? I just came to remind someone not to have inappropriate thoughts." Alec raised an eyebrow.Jenny was stunned as she

    At night, Jenny and Alec lay on the big bed, feeling a bit awkward. Their awkwardness wasn't because they felt shy, but because they felt that Old Mr. Faust's arrangement made things awkward. Nothing had actually happened between them, so his action was completely unnecessary, and it made them feel uneasy. "Jenny." Alec hugged Jenny from behind. "Let's sleep." "Alright," Jenny replied, pushing away all the messy thoughts in her mind. She closed her eyes and soon fell into a deep sleep. Alec felt helpless when he felt the person in his arms falling asleep. Jenny had fallen asleep, while he had trouble sleeping. The next day, when Jenny woke up, Alec was already awake."Did you not sleep well?" She was surprised when she saw him looking a bit tired. He even had dark circles under his eyes. They went to bed early last night, so she found it strange. Alec looked at her with resentment as he said, "I'm not like some people who can fall asleep easily anywhere." "Why couldn't you

    In the living room, Hannah stood up immediately and greeted the three people who came in warmly. Jenny felt that something was off with her. She remembered clearly that her aunt had never liked her and didn't even treat her with the minimal amount of decency the last time she came. Why was she so enthusiastic now?"Jenny, you finally came. I just told your uncle that we should go to the village entrance to welcome you." Hannah smiled and pulled Jenny over to sit on a chair.Jenny was confused but didn't refuse. She didn't want to argue with Hannah this time. As long as her aunt didn't cause trouble, she wouldn't be disrespectful."Let's eat first," David said and glared at Hannah, asking her to bring out the food from the kitchen.Hannah didn't refuse. Jenny and the others were seated while she went to the kitchen to take out the food.In the living room, with Hannah gone, David cut to the chase and asked, "Jenny, you called me yesterday and said that you were coming back because

    "Let's eat first and talk later," Hannah suggested. She'd wanted to talk to Jenny about Felicity's situation. But then, Jenny didn't know what she was thinking. Seeing that she seemed reluctant to talk about it, Jenny didn't ask too much and just comforted David and asked him to take it easy. After lunch at David's house, they first went to pay respects to Jenny's grandfather. David and Hannah didn't follow, saying they would stay home to prepare dinner.At the graveyard, Jenny cleared Horace's grave of the weeds surrounding it and laid down some fresh flowers. Then, she introduced Alec to him. "Grandpa, I know you must have been watching me from heaven all these years, and now I've brought someone over. Don't worry—he'll take good care of me from now on.""Hello, Grandpa, I'm Alec, and I'll take care of Jenny from now on. You can rest assured," Alec also spoke up. Jenny talked to her grandfather's tombstone for a while more before they left.The air in Orchid Village was fresh,

    The two waited at the door for a while. Alec went to find Old Mr. Faust, and Jenny walked into David's house alone."Uncle David." As soon as she entered, Jenny saw David sitting on a stool smoking. She felt a little sorry when she saw him in such a troubled state.She walked over and sat down opposite him. "Uncle David, is something wrong?"David glanced at her and immediately said with a laugh, "What could be wrong? Don't think too much.""Uncle David..." Jenny looked at him, hesitated for a moment, and said, "I heard the argument between you and Aunt Hannah just now."David's body stiffened, and his eyes reddened. "Forget you heard anything.""Tell me about it, Uncle David." Jenny could see that David was really helpless. If he had a way to resolve his predicament, he wouldn't be acting like this now. He didn't want Jenny to know, and he didn't want to ask for her help either. David always felt that although she was his niece in name, she wasn't biologically related to him, so

    David nodded. He understood the rationale, but it was hard to sit back and do nothing about his daughter. Jenny came to a decision. "Think of this money as a loan from me. Get her to draft a loan agreement."Taken aback, David looked troubled. "But Felicity's pregnant. She can't work…""I am in no rush to get my money back. She can pay me back slowly, but you and Aunt Hannah cannot offer help. If you do that, you'll be doing more harm to her." Jenny wanted Felicity to earn her keep. Else, that woman would never appreciate the value of money and spend like there was no tomorrow.David understood her intention and agreed without hesitation, "Of course."After that, David called Hannah to convey Jenny's message. He asked his wife to make a trip to Felicity's in-laws and get a handwritten loan agreement from Felicity.Hannah was displeased to hear that, but David threatened her, "If you don't like the idea, I'll let her stay with her in-laws.

    That afternoon, Gilbert called off his engagement to the Silveras. He did not pick up a single one of Lottie's calls. When he found Marigold, she was taking Caleb on a stroll around the neighborhood. It had been a while since she'd taken notice of anything related to Gilbert. She suddenly felt how nice it was to have her mental energy spent somewhere else, no longer being so hung up on that man. However, when Gilbert appeared before her, her heartbeat quickened. "Why are you here?" Marigold said, snapping out of her reverie. Gilbert smiled lightly. Without saying much else, he pulled her into an embrace. "Didn't you say that I could come to see you once everything is settled?" Marigold was stunned. She was in disbelief. "So, what you're saying is it's all over?" "Didn't you read the news?" Gilbert was speechless. "No. I didn't want to care." Every time she saw anything about Gilbert and Lottie, she felt miserable. She'd rather save herself the pain and block out anything

    In the end, Esther went with Gilbert's suggestion. However, she did not trade Bradshaw Operation's projects with Jenny. She went with the Silveras. For one, she did not trust the Walters. On the other hand, the Silveras and the Bradshaws were going to be united through marriage. They deserved to be trusted more. Gilbert didn't mind. After all, if anything happened to the Bradshaws, the Silveras would not help. With those projects in hand, they would only fall further into debt. The plan was going smoothly. Gilbert had not gone to see Marigold once. He knew that before subduing the Bradshaws, going to visit Marigold would only endanger her. After all, Marigold was safe. Nothing had happened, and Caleb was growing up healthily. One month later, things began to feel off in Bradshaw Operations. After Faust Group received their money, they did not start the project. No one knew what they were doing. Esther was feeling antsy. She prodded Gilbert to ask if there was anything wro

    That very afternoon, Esther and Gilbert rushed to Faust Group to sign the deal. Gilbert said he was worried that Alec would change his mind, so he urged Esther to sign it. Only through a written contract would they be able to relax. Esther thought it made sense and agreed to rush to Faust Group with Gilbert.In the meeting room, Alec looked at the two people before him, expressionless. "You have a good son, Mrs. Bradshaw." "I'm flattered. My son had Bradshaw Operations' interests at heart. He'll inevitably be a little insensitive. Please don't hold that against him, Mr. Faust." Esther smiled. She didn't mind Alec's sarcasm because it didn't matter. As long as Bradshaw Operations could truly benefit from this, she didn't care how much Alec mocked her. Alec smiled coldly and slid the contract over to her. "You may flip through it." Esther took it and read through it seriously.If this project succeeded, they would reap massive rewards. However, it required a massive upfront inv

    In the following days, Gilbert headed over to Faust Group infrequently during the day. To others, he was there to talk business with Alec. But in reality, it was a different scenario altogether. Vincent brought Gilbert a cup of coffee in Alec's office. Because of all the times he'd been there, Vincent knew what he wanted without having to ask. Alec had a cup of coffee placed before him, too. Everyone thought that Gilbert was trying to convince Alec to give him one of the shares, which was why he always came there, but that was not the case. The collaboration was a set-up. As long as the Bradshaws signed the deal on the project, they would not escape unscathed. Gilbert had planned this for a long time just to trick the Bradshaws into accepting the project. However, the scheme had to be executed perfectly. Since Gilbert buttered up the project in front of the Bradshaws, Alec had to feign disinterest in his collaboration. Otherwise, it would seem suspicious if Alec, a smart ma

    After the engagement party, Gilbert officially had a stronghold in Bradshaw operations. Because he was already very capable, he had a lot of supporters. No one challenged him in the company. Most of them sucked up to him because they knew that if things went well, he would be the heir of the company.Gilbert didn't really care about that. He didn't even want to be there for long. He knocked on Esther's door and walked into her office."Come, sit." Esther was all smiles when she saw him. It was more sincere than before.She used to doubt him a lot, but now, although she still had her reservations, she mostly believed in him. In her eyes, no one would reject the chance to inherit Bradshaw Operations. This was basically manna from Heaven. Gilbert just didn't know it back then, and now he did. Gilbert sat down in front of Esther and began reporting the information he had gathered, as well as his thoughts on Bradshaw Operations and his plans for the future.When he presented the inf

    Gilbert and Lottie's engagement party was held at Bardoff Grand Hotel on Saturday.A ton of people showed up to their engagement party. After all, the Bradshaws and the Silveras were pretty big names in Bardoff City, and plenty of the other families knew of their true wealth. They all came to attend the party. Jenny and Alec had both received invites. Jenny was Gilbert's sister, and on top of that, they represented the Walters and the Fausts. It was to be expected. At first, Jenny didn't want to go. The party held no meaning to it. It was just a show put on for Esther. It would be a complete waste of her time. However, she was talked into it by Alec. It would be weird if she didn't go. Zack brought Janet to the party. He found Jenny and was in a daze. "Wasn't Gilbert courting Marigold? Why is he engaged to Lottie?" Jenny rolled her eyes. "What have you been doing, Zack? You're really bad at keeping up." Gilbert had been courting Lottie for a while now. If Zack paid attention

    Gilbert drove to Jenny's villa, but he was in no rush to get down. He didn't unlock the doors, either. He obviously wanted to talk to Marigold. But Marigold evidently didn't want to. "I want to take my child and leave." She was afraid. What if Gilbert and Lottie married and took her child away? She no longer believed in love. The only thing she believed in was her child. Gilbert tightened his grip when he heard that. "Marigold, the engagement is only for Esther to see. I have no feelings for Lottie." "Who knows? People change. You said you didn't have feelings for me, too." Marigold found this all very amusing. Perhaps this was fate. Gilbert wanted to keep explaining, but Marigold did not give him the chance to. "Just let me and Caleb leave. If what you say is true, you can come to find us once everything is over." And if Gilbert didn't come looking for her, the truth would unfold itself, and she would give up all hope. Gilbert understood that Marigold had already made

    Marigold was miserable throughout dinner, but she persevered till the end without being too dramatic. After dinner, they walked to the entrance of the shopping mall.Gilbert went to get the car. Lottie stood with Jenny and Marigold. Watching Gilbert leave, she turned toward Marigold. "I heard that you used to like Gilbert very much." "It's all in the past. It's not worth mentioning." Marigold didn't want to talk about it. She was afraid that Lottie would see that she still liked Gilbert. Most importantly, she was afraid that Gilbert's plan would be ruined. Lottie smiled. "That's true. The past is the past. You're such a nice person. You'll definitely be able to find someone better suited for you in the future." Marigold pursed her lips. Gilbert soon brought the car over. Lottie was about to get into the car, but before she did, she suddenly turned to Marigold and said, "Gilbert and my engagement party will be in a few days' time. If you have the time, you're more than welcom

    Everyone was shocked to hear her speak so suddenly. Lottie was stunned, and she explained, "You've misunderstood. That's not what I meant. I just think that if the child follows his father, it'll help him develop better, and you'll be less stressed." "I don't need your concern. I can raise my child alone," Marigold snorted. She did not hold back at all. Lottie looked unpleasant. Gilbert had no choice but to step in. "We'll have our own child together. And whoever likes it the most will get to keep it." Although they knew that Gilbert had meant this for Lottie to hear, Marigold found it extremely upsetting. She looked at Gilbert, and for a moment, she was unable to tell if he was being genuine. She thought of all that Gilbert had said to her last night, saying that he didn't like Lottie and had no intention of marrying her. But he looked to be truly in love. Marigold didn't think she could tell if he was faking it. "I'm sorry. I need to go to the restroom." Marigold didn't w
