"Are you mute, can't you speak?" Eugene said aggressively. Orborne took a deep breath, gritting his teeth, and said: "Uncle, aunt, I was wrong before, I apologize!" Watching this scene, Theophilus's lips curled into a slight smirk. Anselm and his wife were secretly delighted, and Dulcie also felt a great sense of relief. Indeed, it was a satisfying sight! Previously, Orborne had ridiculed her openly countless times, not to mention the unknown times he had schemed behind the scenes to harm her family. She never thought he would have such a day! "Let it go, get up, we're all part of the Miller family, this is too awkward." Anselm said soothingly, standing up and pretending to help Orborne. "Brother, don't help him up, let him kneel for clarity." Eugene sternly said: "Let's talk about the main issue." Anselm and Ariel looked at each other and then both turned their eyes to Dulcie. Dulcie nodded, understanding their intention. Anselm cleared his throat twice. Then he said serious

A chauffeur in a vest opened the rear door, and a young, fashionably dressed couple stepped out of the car. "Ah, Thekla and Cuthbert are here." Enoch said with a smile, looking smugly at Ariel and her husband. "Let me introduce everyone, this is Thekla's boyfriend, Cuthbert. He's the CEO of a major real estate company in Elysian Echo, and a student from France! Truly a talented young man! My Thekla has found a good match. See that car? Cuthbert bought it, an Audi A8! Much more expensive than that BMW X5 there." Enoch boasted: "Cuthbert even said he's getting a new car, this one is for me to use. Anselm, you always told me about Dulcie being a corporate director, so capable and all, why didn't her company arrange a luxury car for her?" The expression on Ariel and her husband's faces was somewhat unpleasant. They had just been boasting to their old neighbor Enoch about how talented their daughter Dulcie was, only to find themselves bested in a comparison of who had the more expensive

“But I am curious, the way you talk, it’s as if you are very close to our CEO?” Cuthbert regained his composure, arrogantly looked at Theophilus, and skeptically asked: “How could a country bumpkin like you know Director Lee? Surely you didn’t just pick up a business card somewhere and pretend to know him?” “Hmph, the youth these days, not particularly capable themselves, but always think they know this person, that person, impressive and powerful. Then they use that to show off." Enoch also mockingly said: “In reality, they are just self-righteous!” “I’m not that close to Jethro." Theophilus casually said: “Last time, when I was buying a house at Flowers On The Prairie, Jethro helped me with the paperwork, that’s how I got to know him.” “What? You’re still saying you bought a house at Flowers On The Prairie?” Enoch laughed scornfully: “You sound so believable. How could a young nobody like you afford it? Do you even know how expensive the houses at Flowers On The Prairie are? Aren’

"Are you doubting my decision?" Jethro coldly replied: "You're just a mere manager at a branch office. If I want to fire you, I'll do it! What, don't want to hand over the keys to the house and car, do you? Those things are your personal property, aren't they?" Jethro was furious, and Cuthbert, feeling both humiliated and angry, obediently took out the house and car keys from his pocket and handed them to Jethro. "Oh? Mr. John, so it turns out the house and car of your precious son-in-law aren't his own." Ariel burst into laughter, looking extremely pleased. Enoch's face turned red, unable to believe that Cuthbert had encountered the company's CEO and was suddenly demoted. And to have to hand over the keys to his house and car right in front of Anselm's family... In an instant, Enoch's family's faces turned red and purple, like pig liver, furious and wishing they could find a hole in the ground to hide in! Jethro, unconcerned with a small fry like Cuthbert anymore, turned to Theo

"Theophilus, if it's not your concern, don't ask too much." Ariel coldly said, seemingly not wanting Theophilus to know. Theophilus slightly knitted his brows, looking towards Dulcie. Dulcie also looked at Theophilus, seemingly pondering something, and asked: "Theophilus, do you know about antique collection?" She remembered, during the decision on the 'King World' sketch, Theophilus had spoken eloquently about gemstone design, showing a high level of expertise. "A bit." Theophilus answered. As a child, he had followed his master in the field of antique collection, thus having a good understanding of the ins and outs. Dulcie thought for a moment and then seriously said: "Then, Theophilus, join me at the antique community gathering in a few days." "What does Theophilus know about antiques that you plan to take him along?" Ariel's face was stern, she hurriedly intervened: "Are you planning to cause your aunt more trouble? She's giving you a great opportunity, don't let Theophilus
