“What?!”As soon as Sophie heard her grandfather asking her to stop looking for her benefactor, she could not understand his intentions. So, she asked incomprehensively, “Why, Grandpa?”Jefferson replied vaguely, “It will not be good for you to continue looking for him. So, it will be better for you to just forget about it.”Sophie frowned, and she was very persistent as she said, “Grandpa, the person that I am looking for is me and my brother’s benefactor! He saved our lives! So, no matter what it is, I will continue looking for him. I will not give up even if I can’t find him!”Jefferson was a little anxious as he solemnly replied, “It is not about whether you are going to find him or not! This is something related to your own safety in the future!”Sophie was unconvinced, and she asked, “My future safety? What has this got to do with my future safety?”Jefferson replied seriously, “Old Master Lennard said that your fate is in direct conflict with his fate. Moreover, his fate i
“What is even more powerful is that the calendar that they came up with is exactly the same as the ones calculated by modern science now. The error is so minimal that there is only a one-day discrepancy in the calendar in every five thousand years. Do you think that this is also a feudal superstition, then?”Sophie suddenly did not know how to refute her mother’s statement. So, she could only make a strong statement as she said, “There is still no actual basis for this kind of thing. Therefore, I will not believe in it anyway!”Helen sighed at this time before she continued speaking in a serious tone, “When my generation was younger, we had a relatively objective understanding of the Eastern and Western culture. We would never blindly believe that the West was better or the East was better. Instead, we would look at the problem from an objective and dialectical perspective. However, the Western culture has already taken complete control over your generation, which was born after the
When she saw that Sophie was no longer refuting her words, Helen sighed slightly before she said in a serious voice, “Sophie, you have to understand that all of the stars in the two trillion galaxies or more have their own set of laws of operation. What more the lives of billions of people?”After that, Helen folded her hands together before she said sincerely, “I used to go to the temple to burn incense and worship Buddha often in the past. However, both of you and your father would always think that I was being overly superstitious. Nonetheless, the teaching in Buddhism has long taught us to see the world in a grain of sand!”“Even if it is just a gravel, its interior is infinite!”“In comparison, a galaxy is also equivalent to a grain of sand in the universe, but it also contains another vast world within it.”“Divination and fortune-telling seek to tell people the truth. Everything has its own set of laws, from the dust to the stars. Even if you do not understand it, it’s okay.
‘However, Mom is already making such an absolute statement now. Based on my knowledge and understanding of her, although Mom is usually a very gentle and easy-going person, as soon as she makes up her mind and decides on something, there is basically no room for mediation at all…’‘So, if I were to insist on looking for my benefactor at this time, my mother will certainly send me to the United States just as she said she would…’‘At that time, if I am in the United States, I will be thousands of miles away from Oskia. It will be even more impossible for me to find my benefactor, then…’‘So, I can only lie to my mother first so that she will feel comforted… before I secretly continue looking for him…’Helen did not know the thoughts that were going on in her daughter’s mind at this time. Therefore, she felt relieved as soon as she heard that Sophie was willing to give up searching for her benefactor.So, Helen looked at Jaime before she said in a serious tone, “Jaime, your middle n
Helen wanted to stay in Aurous Hill for a while.It was not only because she missed Curtis, but it was also because she truly liked the warm and humid ancient city by the riverside.Also, she was still thinking about that old mansion that Curtis used to live in.She wanted to continue staying in Aurous Hill so that she could buy that old mansion. After that, she would renovate it nicely again.If there was nothing special in the future, Helen was even willing to settle down in Aurous Hill.Helen had gotten married to Sheldon because she had already lost all of her confidence and expectation in love and relationships after seeing the man that she loved so deeply getting married to another woman.However, even after getting married to Sheldon, Helen only felt family affection for him and not love.As soon as Sheldon’s betrayal of their marriage had come to light, Helen’s family affection for Sheldon had also disappeared instantly.Therefore, even though she had not officially div
As he spoke, Jaime said again, “Oh! I will not be leaving Aurous Hill for the time being anyway. Miss Golding’s concert is about to begin. I want to continue staying in Aurous Hill to make the preparations for the concert, and I will only go back to Eastcliff after the concert is over.”Sophie never expected that her brother would be so talented at adding to her misfortune and striking her when she was already down.She glared at Jaime before she told Helen, “Mom, I did not bring enough clothes with me this time. Furthermore, I do not have all the daily necessities that I usually use here with me. It would be fine if I were to continue staying in Aurous Hill for three to five days. However, it will be very troublesome for me if I were to stay here for a long time…”Helen replied indifferently, “Oh, that is very simple. The maids at home are also very free now. I will ask them to pack all of your personal belongings for you and bring them here together with them, then.”As she spoke
While Sophie was temporarily hiding her inner impulse as she decided to stay in Aurous Hill, Wendy was still feeling very anxious and nervous as she got busy in Mallow Stenhouse Etiquette Corporation.At this time, it was already dusk, and Wendy had officially taken over Mallow Stenhouse Etiquette Corporation in the afternoon.In order not to disappoint Charlie, Wendy immediately spent the entire afternoon carefully counting all of the accounts of Mallow Stenhouse Etiquette Corporation ever since its establishment.She listed down all of the hostesses who had been cheated by Mallow Stenhouse Etiquette Corporation first before evaluating their losses based on the records of their participation in various events and activities. After that, she calculated the total amount of compensation that should be paid out to these people.Immediately afterward, Wendy contacted all of the hostesses who had worked together with her as well as the hostesses who used to work for the company to retur
When Wendy saw that everyone had already received the message, Wendy continued speaking, “The reason why I called everyone back here today is because there are a few things that I want to announce to you.”“The first thing is that Hebron Lawry and Xavia Carter have already paid back a portion of the money that they have cheated out of everyone for so long!”As soon as Wendy said this, there was an uproar at the scene!One of the girls blurted out, “What?! Hebron and Xavia have already paid back the money? Is that for real? How could these two exploiters possibly repay the money? How is that possible?”Wendy replied seriously, “This is indeed true. My brother-in-law has already sent the both of them off to start working in a karaoke bar to earn money to atone for their wickedness. Xavia will be working as a bar girl, and Hebron will be working on the premises. Both of them will be working at Chief Jay’s establishment. I believe that both of them will already start working tonight. Y
