Chapter 85 Disheartened Finished Hearing that, Jeremy felt a headache coming. He then said, "She's not the one you should be fond of There are sthings I can't tell you. You'd better give up on this idea as soon as possible. I'll tell the old man to stop matchmake people at will." "Uncle Jeremy, you're being unreasonable! I like Aurelia. All these years, she's the only one I've ever liked. What do you mean, she's not the one I should be fond of?" Chad wouldn't give in.
The mindset of the young boy was simple. If he liked something, he would pursue it, regardless of whether it was deemed appropriate or not.
"You could ask Aurelia if she would marry you, or if she could ever cto like you," Jeremy uttered in a deep voice.
Chad was taken aback for a moment, squinting his eyes. "Uncle Jeremy, don't tellyou're also fond of Aurelia? Didn't you just get engaged? Aren't you afraid I'll tell Sylvia?" The family values of the Gardner family were quite different from those of others. They didn't condone the trend of keeping mistresses or following the old practice of having multiple wives and girlfriends. Such behavior was strictly forbidden in the Gardner family.
Chad was well aware of the values his family held. If Uncle Jeremy dares to covet the one I love, I'll fight him to the death! Jeremy was rendered speechless momentarily. "What utter nonsense!" "Then givea convincing reason to let go." "The reason is simply impossible," Jeremy said coldly.
Chad furrowed his brows.
Jeremy continued, "If you ask her, you will naturally get an answer." With that, Jeremy hung up the phone.
Chad stared at his phone, lost in thought. He knew Jeremy was not the type to call without reason. Even when rumors of his high school romance circulated, Jeremy didn't interfere. Now that I'm an adult and even the old man has given his consent, there's even less reason for Uncle Jeremy to meddle without cause. That means Uncle Jeremy surely knows something about Aurelia. What could he know about her? Could it be the incident that had previously gone viral online? That must be it! Aurelia had just finished work and was about to drive to the hospital when she received a call from Mabel.
She was told to return to the Quigley residence with Matthew that evening.
Aurelia glanced at the time, realizing there was still enough tto visit Chad at the hospital.
On the road, Matthew called her again.
"Have you finished work?" Matthew asked..
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"I just got off work." Chapter 55 Disheartened Finished "Meetat Merryborne Mall. It's Grandma's birthday today. Let's pick out a gift together, then head over to the Quigley residence." Aurelia was somewhat surprised, “Grandma's birthday?" During this particularly busy period, despite having ample time, she had completely forgotten about Mabel's birthday.
"I'll go to Merrybarne Mall immediately." As the car changed direction, she quickly sent Chad a message on Whatsapp. It read: Chad, I can't make it to the hospital. I just learned that an elder is celebrating their birthday and I must attend. I'll visit you tomorrow. I'm While Chad was absent-mindedly engrossed in his games, he frequently checked the tto calculate the tit would take for Norman to get there.
That was because he thought Aurelia would be arriving soon.
He only found out Aurelia wouldn't be showing up that day when he saw the Whatmessage she sent.
He stared at his phone in despair, experiencing for the first tthe feeling of his hopes being dashed.
He also wanted to ask Aurelia in person, if she wanted to be with him.
Left without a choice, he decided to do that the next day.
As soon as Aurelia arrived at Merryborne Mall, Matthew had already shown up.
Matthew took her directly to the top floor of the mall.
On the top floor of the mall, there were all sorts of jewels that couldn't be seen on the lower floors.
"Grandma has always had a fondness for all kinds of jewelry. Every year on her birthday, what she loves to receive the most isn't any health supplements, but various types of jewelry. You should choose sfor her,” Matthew said.
"All right. I'll look around." Aurelia nodded.
She had sknowledge about jewelry, and she was quite curious about all things, whether they were real or fake.
At the stime, it was clear that the jewelry price at the place where Matthew had brought her was sure to leave people dumbfounded.
At that moment, she thought the amount of a few million she had won at the gambling table was enough. After much deliberation, Aurelia had set her eyes on a necklace.
It was an emerald gemstone necklace. Mabel surely had quite a few of these, but Aurelia was particularly drawn to its design.
The design was simple, highlighting an eternal theme.
After that, she glanced at the price and it was two million eight hundred and eighty thousand.
Chapter 85 Disheartened) Fortunately, it wouldn't max out her card.
Aurelia picked up the necklace and said to Matthew, “Let's go with this one." 82% Finished Matthew had been following Aurelia closely, watching her as she earnestly selected gifts.
When the girl becserious, there was a kind of beauty about her that she didn't even realize she had.
"All right." Matthew had no objections. Her taste is impeccable. That's the kind of jewelry design that Grandma likes.
Aurelia then handed over the card, allowing the shop assistant to swipe it.
"The gift we're giving to Grandma, I'll pay for it," Matthew intervened, giving the shop assistant a knowing look.
The shop assistant recognized Matthew and promptly took a black card from Matthew's hand.
Aurelia was given no chance to refuse at all.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Let's each pay half the price. Could you sendyour card number?" Aurelia opened theon her phone, intending to make a transfer through it.
When Matthew saw how she wanted to divide the amount, his brows furrowed slightly. "No need" Seeing that Matthew was clearly unhappy, Aurelia no longer insisted.
However, as they were about to leave and descend the stairs, Aurelia still entered a store and bought a set of women's clothing. Mabel had always maintained a good figure, making it easy to choose the right size. Matthew's thin lips lightly pursed as he saw the clothes that Aurelia had bought.
"When I was going upstairs just now, I thought that this dress would definitely look good on Grandma," Aurelia said.
Matthew couldn't help but chuckle lightly when he heard her praising Mabel. "Are you trying not to take advantage of me?" "No. You have an idea what to give her, and I have mine. My desire to show filial piety to Grandma is sincere," she answered. Otherwise, why would I have married you? Obviously, Aurelia couldn't say the words she had in her mind.
"You care more for Grandma than you do for me." Matthew noticed this.
After saying it out loud, for sreason, there was still a bit of unease lingering in his heart.
However, he regretted saying it, as the statement was too prone to misunderstanding.
Aurelia was taken aback for a moment, but she quickly recovered. "Isn't it because of Grandma that we were able to get married?" she asked. If it weren't for Grandma, he surely wouldn't have given up on his true love to marry me, would he?
Matthew arched his attractive eyebrows, not uttering a word. By the tthey reached the underground hey reache warare Gordon appeared as if by magic. "Please giveyour car keys. Ms. Shaw. I'll take responsibility for 3/4 Chapter 85 Disheartened driving it back to Starry Sea Mansion." Matthew said. "You and I will go to the Quigley residence in one car." Finished Aurelia had no objections. They had agreed beforehand that in front of Mabel, they would play the part of a loving couple. She handed the car keys to Gordon and aid. "Thank you for your help. Mr. Zeller" "Ms. Shaw, no worries. It's no trouble at all!" After receiving the car keys, Gordon drove off in Aurelia's car.
After that, Aurelia and Matthew got into his car.
The driver was driving smoothly, and it was precisely the peak hour for people getting off work, so the road was congested.
Matthew had his laptop on his lap, working on his tasks.
Aurelia had also opened Amazon, and there were a few more customers that day. She was m diligently distinguishing the authenticity of the items for those customers. While she was carefully examining the pictures, a message from Angela popped up on What Reborn for Revenge
