“Doris Young?!”After hearing Doris’s name, only then did Jacob realize that the beautiful and sexy lady he saw in the video was actually the vice chairperson of Emgrand Group, who came to his daughter’s studio to congratulate on its commencement.Jacob was left dumbfounded.Afterall, Doris, who was the vice chairperson of Emgrand Group and a business elite in Aurous Hill, had great reputation all over Aurous Hill.Furthermore, Jacob also knew that Emgrand Group gave Claire a lot of renovation businesses, and they were literally bread and butter of her career.However, he really did not expect that Doris would take initiative to visit his house. Therefore, Jacob hurriedly said to Claire, “Claire! Quickly! Emgrand Group’s vice chairperson, Doris Young is here!”“Ah?” Claire was astonished, and immediately said with a slight nervous tone, “Why is Miss Young here…… I will open the door for her!”Loreen was also surprised.Although Doris’s value was incomparable with Loreen, after

Doris hurriedly replied, “Hello, Mr. Wade…”At this moment, Loreen stood up and spoke with an awkward tone, “Hello Miss Young…”Only now did Doris notice Loreen and said with surprise, “Oh? You’re here too, Loreen? Did you not go home?”Loreen said with an unnatural tone, “Um… I will have to head over to the airport in a while.”The moment Dylan who was standing aside saw Doris, a flash of affection was visible in his eyes. He had seen a lot of beautiful girls, but he had never seen a white-collar beauty with such captivating elegance and exquisiteness. Therefore, his heart immediately palpitated with eagerness.Subconsciously, he stood up and asked Loreen, “Loreen, why haven’t you introduced this beautiful lady yet?”Loreen immediately began introducing. “Oh yea, Miss Young. Let me introduce you to my cousin, Dylan.”Soon after, she turned to Dylan and said, “Cousin, this is our Emgrand Group’s vice chairperson, Miss Young.”Dylan stretched out his hand right away and said i

Dylan was just thinking about finding some common topics to try to get closer to Doris when he suddenly received a WhatsApp message from his mother, Sylvia.The content of the WhatsApp message hit him very hard, as if he were struck by lightning.“How did you useless brat provoke Charlie Wade?! Wrigley from the Golding family just called and chewed me out, saying that you were in trouble again and Charlie wants to extend your punishment period in Aurous Hill to two years!”Dylan was on the verge of collapse!“Two years?! Isn’t that going to kill me?”“I had just stayed in Cliffcouls of Aurous Hill for two days and I couldn’t take it any longer. I have no idea how I am supposed to endure it for a year. Why did Charlie suddenly add another year to my punishment time? What did I do to him?”As he thought about it, Dylan looked at Charlie and subconsciously asked, “Mr. Wade, I…”Charlie did not even wait for him to speak. He passed a cup of tea and said with a faint smile, “Come! Pl

With that, while gritting his teeth and stomping his feet, he picked up the teacup and finished it in a single gulp.Drinking the cup of tea was equivalent to agreeing tacitly to Charlie’s new arrangement.One year’s worth of sentence was suddenly doubled and became two years.Dylan could only cry without tears. At that instant, he was entirely devoid of energy like an empty shell without a soul.At this moment, Loreen was also a little surprised.The others did not know about the conflict between Dylan and Charlie but she knew everything about it.It was Charlie who made Dylan ride a bicycle from Eastcliff all the way to Aurous Hill, and made him suffer hardships for his reformation in Aurous Hill. When Charlie started playing charades with numbers all of a sudden now, she immediately had a bad feeling about it.So, she asked Dylan in a soft voice, “Dylan. What in the world just happened?”Dylan handed his handphone over to Loreen with great disappointment. A WhatsApp message,

Loreen really wanted to look into the actual relationship between Charlie and Doris.However, it was impossible to do so due to time constraints.She needed to rush off to Eastcliff and spend time with her family during the New Year. Therefore, after staying for about ten minutes, Loreen turned to both Claire and Charlie and said, “Claire, Charlie, I have to go now and head over to the airport for my flight. All the flights to Eastcliff are completely booked today. If I miss this flight, I would be spending the New Year here in Aurous Hill.”Claire replied, “Loreen, do you want us to send you off at the airport?”Loreen hurriedly said, “You don’t have to trouble yourselves. All of you should just stay here.”As soon as she finished speaking, she turned to Doris and greeted, “Miss Young, I shall take my leave now.”With a gentle nod, Doris replied, “Have a safe flight! Also, Happy New Year in advance!”“Thank you!” Loreen nodded. After bidding farewell to Claire’s parents, only t

It’s not good for the baby!”With that, she turned to Charlie and said with a smile, “My dear son-in-law, don’t drink too much. Drinking too much wine will affect seeds’ qualities in men!
