"What does it have to do with you?" Blake Morgan was the first to reply.
"Grandpa is right. What does it have to do with you?" Alice also replied in the group.
Seeing their responses, Mason Morgan was speechless and could only send a series of question marks in the group to express his astonishment.
"Dad, although you have the final say in Alice's matters, and I trust your judgment, I should at least know what kind of man my daughter is going to marry, right? I'll find time to go over and take a look after a while. There are too many things going on here in Metropolis City at the moment. @Blake Morgan," after a long time, Mason Morgan sent another lengthy message.
"Do as you wish. It's not like you can change anything anyway," Blake Morgan said rather domineeringly.
"Dad, you're overthinking. It's only just beginning now!" Alice was obviously a bit exasperated too.
After replying, Alice put down her phone.
"Why aren't you eating yet?" At this moment, Joseph also came out from the kitchen. He placed the last dish on the table.
"Ah? I was waiting for you! I thought about it and felt it wasn't quite right to start eating alone," Alice was slightly stunned, then answered.
"Try it. No need to be so formal," Joseph picked up a piece of cheese steak for Alice, making her feel a sense of bliss.
"Thank you," Alice expressed her gratitude, then took a bite.
However, after just one bite, her expression changed, and she instantly froze.
"Um, how is it? Not tasty?" Joseph noticed Alice's unusual expression and asked.
However, Alice didn't answer. Instead, she picked up two more pieces and started eating.
"If it's not tasty, don't force yourself. Try something else?" Joseph blinked and suggested.
"Joseph, what are you saying? What do you mean by not tasty? It's too delicious! How can it be so delicious? This is the most delicious cheese steak I've ever eaten. It's simply too good."
"I won't talk to you anymore. I'm going to eat first. It's too delicious," Alice couldn't wait to start eating. She was already a bit hungry, and with such delicacies in front of her, she found it even harder to control herself.
"This is delicious!"
"Oh, this is delicious too."
"This one, this one, even more delicious."
"Wow, this is the most delicious. It's too good."
As she ate, Alice kept praising Joseph endlessly.
Hearing this, Joseph felt a bit unreal. Was it really that delicious?
"Isn't this just an ordinary home-cooked meal? Is it really that delicious?" Joseph smiled awkwardly. Was this girl just teasing him?
"Joseph, you're being too humble. Whew, even the top chefs in my family can't make dishes as delicious as yours."
"Joseph, be more confident. You're really amazing and awesome," Alice continued to praise him while not stopping her hands from eating.
Joseph smiled and started eating too.
Alice ate more dishes, while Joseph ate more rice. Since childhood, Joseph had always had a huge appetite.
After about an hour, Alice was finally full. Although Joseph had a large appetite, he was already full at this point.
"If it's not enough, I can make more for you," Joseph noticed Alice's lingering desire for more.
"Ah? No, no. I can't eat anymore. Really can't eat anymore," Alice quickly responded.
She seemed to have been eating a bit like a wolf just now, not very ladylike. Would Joseph dislike her?
Thinking about this, Alice felt a bit uneasy.
"That's good then," Joseph smiled.
"Joseph, I don't usually eat so unladylike. Do you prefer gentler girls?" Alice asked tentatively.
"You just need to be the way you like. It doesn't matter what kind of girls I like," Joseph chuckled.
"How can that be? That's too casual," Alice shook her head.
"Then let me put it another way. I like all your ways," Joseph said with a smile.
"Ah? Are you serious?" When Joseph said this, Alice's pretty face instantly turned red. She turned around and fled back to her room.
Joseph watched Alice's departing figure and just laughed. She was already eighteen years old, yet still like a child.
After Alice left, Joseph began to clean up.
Back in her room, it took a long time for Alice's burning heart to cool down.
"So, Joseph likes me too. Does that mean we have mutual feelings?" Alice lay on the bed, hugging her big plush doll, talking to herself.
Suddenly, she thought of something, grabbed her phone, dialed Blake Morgan's number, and called.
Before long, the call was answered.
"Hello, Alice. How is it going? Have you arranged everything?" Blake Morgan's voice came from the other end of the line.
"Of course. It's not a difficult task. I've settled Joseph in," Alice replied.
"So, what's the matter? Calling grandpa so late?" Blake Morgan asked again.
"There's nothing in particular. I just wanted to tell you that Joseph's cooking skills are really good, much better than those top chefs in our family," Alice couldn't stop praising Joseph's culinary skills.
"Hahaha... Is that so? Now I want to taste it even more."
"However, I can't fully trust your opinion on it being delicious because, in the eyes of someone you love, even their flaws are virtues," Blake Morgan couldn't help but tease.
"What do you mean by 'someone you love'? My relationship with Joseph is not certain yet!" Alice said this, but her heart was happy.
"I remember three years ago, when Joseph married into the Cooper family, someone in our family hid and cried for a day and night, with swollen eyes."
"She even said Joseph Wilson had promised to marry her and that Joseph wasn't a man of his word," Blake Morgan teased again.
"Grandpa, you... Always teasing people. I won't talk to you anymore," Alice's pretty face turned slightly red, unable to keep a straight face. After exchanging a few pleasantries with Blake Morgan, she hung up the phone.
After hanging up, Alice opened F******k and found that her update had exploded with 99 comments.
Moreover, when she opened it, she saw that all 99 comments on the update were from the food photos she had just posted, mostly from boys.
"Alice, who is this man? He's not your boyfriend, is he?"
"Alice, are you in a relationship? Which family's young master is this?"
"Joseph? Who is Joseph?"
"Fuck, if he becomes your boyfriend, I'll kill him..."
"Hehe... Don't let me see this guy in Nova City. Every time I see him, I'll beat him up twice..."
Alice read the comments for a while. They were all a mess.

“You’re too young.”Joseph finally forced the words out.“Too young? Are you kidding me? Alice is even younger than I am. Why don’t you think she’s too young?”Heidi looked stubborn, chin lifted.“You’re different from her.”Joseph sounded thoroughly helpless.“How am I different? Just because I’m your ex-wife’s sister?” Heidi snorted softly. “I knew it. You’ve never gotten past that.”“Ahem… that is part of it,” Joseph replied after clearing his throat.“I knew it. You really are a block of dead wood that refuses to bloom.”“Fine, I won’t pressure you anymore. Take your time. You’ve been overwhelmed lately anyway.”“If there’s anything I can help with, just tell me—especially anything computer-related. That’s my strong suit.”It seemed Heidi had suddenly come to terms with things.“Thank you. If I need help, I won’t stand on ceremony.”Joseph smiled faintly.“Good. That’s how it should be,” Heidi said casually.By then, they had reached the door.“I’ll head out now. It’s getting late

“Oh for heaven’s sake, there you go again, talking nonsense.”“I just walked in and already heard you running your mouth.”“What does your cousin and her husband’s business have to do with you? Why do you have to yap about it?”Nicole Hayes said as she lightly pinched Lillian Morvek.“Oh, come on, it’s no big deal.”“Cousin and Brother-in-law don’t mind at all.”“Look at them now—they’re doing just fine.”“They’re more harmonious after the divorce than they ever were before it.”“I saw them chatting just now, perfectly peaceful.”Lillian Morvek looked utterly unrepentant.“Hahaha, this child may speak bluntly, but she’s telling the truth.”Old Mr. Cooper couldn’t help but laugh heartily.“Watch your mouth.”Nicole Hayes scolded softly.“Bleh, bleh, bleh…”Lillian Morvek stuck out her tongue and pulled a mischievous face.“Whether to divorce or not is a choice for the young people themselves.”“We elders shouldn’t interfere too much.”“It’s just that this little brat loves to talk nons

Just as the two were talking, the sound of approaching footsteps grew louder. Heidi and Lillian Morvek, along with the others, walked in.“Grandfather! Brother-in-law!”Heidi called out.“Hello, Grandpa Cooper. Hello, Brother-in-law.”Lillian Morvek followed closely behind her.“You’re doing well too. It’s only been a year or two, and you’ve grown so much.”Joseph smiled slightly as he glanced at Lillian Morvek.“Hehe, of course. Next year I’m taking the entrance exams for Nova University.”“When that happens, I’ll be in the same school as Cousin Heidi—and you too, Brother-in-law.”Lillian Morvek said cheerfully.“Nova University isn’t easy to get into. The cutoff score will probably be very high.”Joseph couldn’t resist teasing her a little.“Don’t worry. If Cousin Heidi managed to get in, then I definitely can too.”Lillian Morvek said stubbornly.“You little menace, what do you mean by that?”“Are you saying my grades are terrible?”Heidi shot her a glare.“Hehe, no, no. I just mea

“So our Cooper family has such a past after all.”Fiona murmured softly, a trace of emotion in her voice.“Our branch in Nova City only truly began to rise with my generation, step by step, until we reached where we are today.”“But even now, though we can be considered a prominent family in Nova City, we are still far behind the Cooper family of Metropolis City.”“The Cooper family there is a colossal force. They have both wealth and power, and now their influence has even extended into the Central Council.”“Among those who hold real authority in the Central Council, the ruling figures of the Metropolis City Cooper family wield considerable power.”“At one point, I even thought about giving up on returning to Metropolis City and simply developing quietly here in Nova City.”“But later, I came to understand something.”“As long as the Nova City Cooper family continues to grow and expand, we will inevitably attract their attention.”“And judging by their nature, they would once again

“Old Master!”“Grandfather!”Joseph and Fiona called out as they stepped into the hall.“Joseph, you’re here. Right on time, as always.”Old Mr. Cooper said with a genial smile.“Grandfather, I’ll go make some tea.”Fiona offered.“Go on, go on. Use the best leaves.”Old Mr. Cooper instructed.“Alright.”Fiona responded and went off to prepare it.“Joseph, Fiona has told me about your ideas in business.”Old Mr. Cooper patted Joseph’s hand, his tone earnest and measured.“I originally meant to come to you first, but after giving it some thought, I decided to speak with her directly.”“After all, she’s the one managing the Cooper family’s businesses now.”Joseph replied with a smile.“Talking to her is perfectly fine. You young people communicate more easily.”“I’m an old relic, and now I can only stay at home, unable to do much of anything.”Old Mr. Cooper said.“But the overall direction and strategy of the Cooper family are still in your hands.”Joseph said with a light smile.“That

“It’s not a hundred pounds. It’s barely over ninety, okay?”Lillian Morvek protested at once.“Then could you at least behave with a little restraint? You’re not a child anymore.”Heidi replied.“What’s there to be afraid of? There’s no one here but people I know.”Lillian Morvek glanced around at the familiar faces.“Hahaha, she’s right. Just treat this place like your own home.”Old Miss Cooper said with a warm, amused smile.“Ma’am, how have you been lately? Your health still good?”Nicole Hayes walked over and asked.“Good, very good. No aches, no illnesses.”Old Miss Cooper replied, still smiling broadly.“Ma’am, this is far too much trouble. You even came out to greet us yourself—must be exhausting.”Jaden Morvek added.“Not at all, not at all. Walking around does me good. I wanted to come out and welcome you.”The old lady remained gentle and cheerful.“Auntie, Uncle, please go inside first. The servants will take care of the luggage.”“When it’s time, I’ll have Heidi take you
