Ron said, "You've become quite clever."Emma responded, "I was never dumb."Ron did not say anything further, focusing on driving.After arriving at a certain spot, they switched to another car and finally arrived at Rebekah's place after a few more minutes.Rebekah lived in another villa area, which was much newer than the villa area where the Hagrid residence was located. The greenery was attractive, but the area lacked a sense of historical charm.It was Emma's first time coming here. "It's my first time coming here to visit your mother. Should I buy something for her?"Ron replied, "You're not really going to be her daughter-in-law, so you don't need to please her."Emma responded, "Isn't it just basic etiquette?"Ron asked, "Emma, haven't you heard this?"Emma asked in reply, "What is it?"Ron could not remember if he had told her before, but he did not mind emphasizing it again. "If you're too kind, people will take advantage of you. Sometimes, it's good to go a little

Emma gritted her teeth and said angrily, "Ron Hagrid, I've told you I won't cling to you. As long as we can break free from our families' arrangements, I'm willing to cancel our engagement at any time. You don't need to force me into a relationship with another man."Ron awkwardly scratched his ear. "All right, I won't joke about it anymore. Let's go, come inside with me."Emma, still furious, ignored him.However, Ron took her hand. "I lied to my mom that our relationship has improved to make her feel better. So, we have to put on a show for her."Emma, not wanting to upset Rebekah, reluctantly let Ron hold her hand.Ron then led her inside.Rebekah was happy to see Ron holding Emma's hand as they walked in, but Kerry spoke before Rebekah, "You guys finally decided to come back?"Ron responded, "Aunt Kerry, why are you here?"Kerry said, "Your mother isn't doing so well. I'm here to keep her company. Unlike you; after dealing with your father's matters, you haven't shown much

Rebekah shook her head and looked at the yard that was filled with memories. "Ron, this home holds the most memories for our family. You and Gary grew up in this yard."Sometimes, when I look at the plants in the yard, I can almost see the scene of Gary playing with you here."This is also where your father and I lived after we got married. We have so many shared memories here."She then lifted her hand to gently wipe away the tears from the corner of her eyes. "I won't go anywhere else. I want to stay with Donald and Gary."Ron wanted to persuade Rebekah, but he did not know how to, so he remained silent.Rebekah stared at Emma. "Emma, Ron has a fiery temper and always acts without considering the consequences. Please help me watch over him in the future."Emma nodded. "I will, Mrs. Hagrid."Rebekah held Emma's hand. "Let's have dinner now. I specially invited two chefs from South Florivera to prepare your favorite dishes. I hope you'll like them."Emma had not had authentic S

Emma's words made Ron feel uneasy. He quickly changed the subject. "Would you like to hear about my previous dream?"Emma replied, "If you're willing to tell me, I'm willing to listen."Ron sighed before slowly beginning, "I'm the second child born into the Hagrid family of our generation. Because I had an older brother who showed exceptional business talents from a young age, the elders of our family devoted all their efforts to nurturing him."They didn't burden me with the responsibility of taking over Hagrid Corporation. So, I grew up relatively carefree."I merely needed to study like any other child and could play all the games I wanted after finishing my studies."Gary was only three years older than me. When he saw me playing games, I guess he also wanted to play, but he couldn't."He had a lot to learn; his schedule was packed apart from a few hours of sleep."At that time, I thought I'd develop games myself in the future. I wanted to create fun and easy-to-play games s

The next day, Emma went to school in Ron's car.She arrived at the university early, and many students were already strolling around the campus. As Emma walked by, others looked at her, and some even whispered and pointed at her behind her back.Emma took out her phone and opened the camera in selfie mode to look at herself. 'There's nothing on my face. Why are they staring at me?'She could not figure it out, but she did not dwell on it much.As she had not been to class for several days and had no classes in the morning, she planned to return to the dormitory to study.Unexpectedly, as soon as she arrived at the dormitory, she heard Evelyn and Cassie gossiping.When they noticed Emma come back, they turned their heads and stared at her together.Their probing gazes were intense. Evelyn said, "Emma, you're so tight-lipped. We've been with you every day for several months, yet we had to hear things about you from others."Emma was confused. "What are you talking about?"Evelyn

The girls chatted away, completely ignoring how embarrassed Emma felt.These few girls had not even finished talking when another group arrived, one after another. Emma's entire morning was wasted.It was not just today; for the next few days, Emma felt like an anomaly in school, surrounded wherever she went.She had practically become a moving attraction on campus.Ron knew about this situation.Hugh said in Ron's ear, "Ron, everyone in school knows that Emma is your fiancée. Don't you plan to clarify things publicly?"Ron replied, "She's indeed my fiancée. What's there to clarify?"Hugh stared at Ron. "Back when school started, you were extremely repulsed by this fiancée of yours, fearing any connection with her. It's only been a few months, and your attitude has changed so drastically. Have you really developed feelings for her and actually want to marry her?"Ron coldly glanced at Hugh. "Whether I want to marry her or not is none of your business. Even if I don't marry her,

Emma subconsciously glanced at the lecturer lecturing on stage. And the lecturer's attention was also drawn to Ron. Luckily, the lecturer had a good temper and did not get angry. "Ron, if you have something to say, say it privately. Don't disrupt the class.""Okay," Ron obediently responded. He then walked over to Emma and stared at Evelyn who was sitting beside Emma.Evelyn, being sensible, immediately stood up and gave her seat to Ron. "Ron, please sit."Ron sat down and whispered to Emma, "Why didn't you add me on Facebook?"Everyone's attention was on them, and it made Emma feel particularly embarrassed. She almost wanted to bury her head under the desk. "I didn't bring my phone. I was just about to ask Evelyn to reply for me, but then you showed up."Ron asked, "Why didn't you bring your phone?""Because I want to focus on the lecture," Emma answered."Did you really not bring it? Or did you just not want to add me?"Emma was left speechless. "Do you want to search me to s

Ron texted: [Have dinner with me tonight. I want to talk to you about this matter.]Emma responded: [Sure.]Ron replied: [Come out now. I'm waiting for you at the south gate.]Emma answered: [Okay.]Emma knew Ron's time was valuable, so she did not even change her clothes. She grabbed a jacket and was about to leave.Evelyn said, "Emma, have you added Ron as a friend on Facebook? What did you two talk about just now? Are you in a hurry to leave because you're going on a date?"Emma responded, "Date? He just wants to talk to me about work."Evelyn replied, "You silly girl, it's not about work. He's just using it as an excuse to go on a date with you."Emma did not believe her. "I'm leaving now. I'll bring back something delicious for you all tonight. What do you want to eat?"Evelyn said, "When Cassie is back, I'll ask her what she wants to eat and then message you.""Okay."Emma hurried to the south gate of the school and saw Ron's very conspicuous red sports car from afar.

Ron pondered, 'We agreed to work hard together to cancel our engagement. Why was I so mad when I heard Emma say she wanted to cancel the engagement?'I even lost my temper completely. This doesn't seem like something I'd do.'Ron immediately composed himself. "I'm not very familiar with the music business. I'm bringing you to meet someone knowledgeable to advise you, so you won't be deceived."Emma responded, "Mr. Steer whom you introduced to me is quite knowledgeable. I'm only focusing on writing lyrics and composing music; he handles everything else."Ron turned his head to glance at Emma. "Silly girl."Emma said softly, "Why are you scolding me again?"Ron replied, "Whenever it comes to personal interests, no one can be completely trusted. Tucker is in the music industry. I saw your talent in music, so I recommended you work in his studio. But I didn't expect you to do so well. Every song you release becomes a hit."Emma asked, "So?"Ron raised a hand and gently poked Emma's

Emma said, "Okay."Ron asked, "Have you won over your crush?"Lucas responded, "Secret."Ron replied, "Looks like you haven't won her over."Lucas said, "As long as I make a move, there's no girl I can't win over. But I haven't made a move yet because the timing isn't right."Ron asked, "Is it because of the Sandow family?"Lucas answered, "The Sandow family wants to marry their daughter to me, and my family wants me to marry her too. But I've told them long ago that I'm not willing to do that. Nobody can make me marry a girl I don't like."Emma remained silent. 'I didn't expect that Lucas would also have the same problem as me and Ron.'It seems like the wealthier the family, the more they'll arrange marriages based on social status without considering personal preferences.'Lucas seemed to sense Emma's thoughts. "Emma, my situation with the Sandow girl is different from yours and Ron's. Don't lump us together."Ron looked at Emma and suddenly said, "There isn't any other gi
