Hearing that, Jeremy felt a headache coming. He then said, “She’s not the one you should be fond of There are some things I can’t tell you. You’d better
“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 shoul
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 come to like you,” Jeremy uttered in a deep voice.
Chad was taken aback for a moment, squinting his eyes. “Uncle Jeremy, don’t tell me you’re also fond of Aurelia? Didn’t you just get engaged? Aren’t yo
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 ol 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 give me a 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 circul 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 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 time to visit Chad at the hospital.
On the road, Matthew called her again.
“Have you finished work?” Matthew asked..
“I just got off work.”

“Meet me at 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
While Chad was absent– mindedly engrossed in his games, he frequently checked the time to calculate the time it 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 WhatsApp message she sent.
He stared at his phone in despair, experiencing for the first time the 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 some for her,” Matthew said.
“All right. I’ll look around.” Aurelia nodded.
She had some knowledge about jewelry, and she was quite curious about all things, whether they were real
or fake.
At the same time, 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.

Fortunately, it wouldn’t max out her card.
Aurelia picked up the necklace and said to Matthew, “Let’s go with this one.”

Matthew had been following Aurelia closely, watching her as she earnestly selected gifts.
When the girl became serious, 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. NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.
The shop assistant recognized Matthew and promptly took a black card from Matthew’s hand.
Aurelia was given no chance to refuse at all.
“Let’s each pay half the price. Could you send me your card number?” Aurelia opened the app on 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 main
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 ha
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 some reason, 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 Grandm

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 he
“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 diligently distinguishing the authenticity of the items for those custom
