Alfred was worried that he might end up taking the whole blame if he failed to speak up. Quickly, he explained, "Grandma, I want to tell you that only a single person can't carry out this assignment. It's not as easy as that."All attention shifted to Alfred as he said that,'What does he mean by that?''Why is Alfred trying to wash only himself clean?'These were running through their minds, and they all had a confused expression, gazing at him. Except for Granny, whose face tightened in curiosity. She was trying to pick out Alfred's point from his explanation."Do you mean you made an attempt to look for him but the rest of them failed to support you?" Granny asked out of curiosity.Alfred raised his head, looking at the rest of the family. He didn't want to be too quick to reply. The expression on their faces would determine his reply.To his surprise, he couldn't even decode what the expression on their faces meant. Although he couldn't understand it, one thing was very certain: t
Why Granny remained adamant with her point was getting Elena more agitated. Her hatred for David grows fresher every day. She knew in her mind that no matter how Lady Wendy insisted with her point, she would never participate in searching for that loser.The fact that they were unable to convince Granny wasn't a shock to Tony. The old woman used to be very hard to convince right from the beginning.Then he proceeded to ask the question that seems important to him now, "Grandma, where do you think we can find him? It's very challenging to be looking for an insignificant person among the billions of important people in this city."Tony hadn't ended his speech before Granny picked it up, "How do you expect a sick woman, lying on her sick bed, to have an answer to this question? How do you expect me to have an idea about his whereabouts? That's why it's an assignment to you all. Find a solution to the problem!"Granny dismissed! Gazing at her children, she could understand the expression
The shocking news had left Diana in a startled state. She just can't get over it. She was scrutinizing the cars that were posted alongside the write up. They were all so beautiful and eye-catching."Uh.. How I wish... How I wish..." Diana was lost in what she should wish for. She wished to own one of those beautiful cars, if not all the cars, just like the mysterious man."What could be the net worth of this man? Damn! I just can't imagine it." She was in the middle of the greatest puzzlement of her life.She went back to her wish again and finally concluded on one. "How I wish I'm his woman. The only love of his life." Diana was smiling to herself with this wish before she bumped into their main entrance door.Boom!!"Oh shoot! I was carried away," she murmured, feeling a slight pain in her left foot and knee. She was so immersed in her phone screen that she didn't even look up to see what was before her.Diana rubbed her knee in a massage for a couple of seconds before pressing down
Diana scoffed, giving herself assurance. "I'm his woman, no matter how many of you commenters there are. I'm the only person who has the right to tell you all to dream on. Keep dreaming!"She was speaking so loudly into her phone as if the commenters were there in person.Shortly, she was taken aback, thinking of what she had just said. She began to admit the truth to herself, even though it was bitter."What if I'm fooling myself? What if I'm among those who are dreaming?"This truth was hard for her to accept, but she had to. Then she remembered that one of the comments mentioned that the man had a girlfriend.In that case, winning the man's heart would be quite challenging and competitive. Anyone who would occupy that space in the man's heart must be extremely beautiful and well-endowed."Come to think of it, I've been admired many times for my beauty. Not only David admired my beauty in the past, but also Grandma, William, and many other people too."She had a broad smile on her fa

Mr. Greg stood up from his seat to welcome her."I'm sorry, I was a bit late," Camilla pleaded politely as she walked closer to the man."No! I understand how tight your schedule would be. Thank you for attending," Mr. Greg expressed his gratitude.Camilla bowed slightly and said, "Thank you for your understanding.""You can have your seat here," Mr. Greg offered.As she passed a gaze down to where the manager pointed, it was a special and more decorated table. There were only two seats around the table."What would you care for? Drinks? Meals? We ha
