“You!”Stephanie was stumped for words.Old Mr. Shepard was not a man who would y along with a
bum.Besides, a seasoned veteran like Old Mr. Shepard would not confuse a person for someone
else.While color washed off Stephanie’s face, her boyfriend grew scared and curtly chided, “Enough!
As if we don’t have enough problems because of your loose tongue!”Spooked, Stephanie shut her
trap.Judging by the reverence shown by Old Mr. Shepard to Skr, Stephanie and her boyfriend
started shaking in their boots.They had just upset a man of higher esteem than Old Mr. Shepard!Doom
was impending if Skr held a grudge and expressed his resentment to Old Mr. Shepard.With that in
mind, Stephanie and her boyfriend lost their nerves.Truth be told, the couple was not worth Skr’s
time.Skr smiled and nodded at Old Mr. Shepard and Judy. “That’s right. My family and I will be living
here from now on.“This is my wife, Yulia, and my daughter, L.”Since Judy had met Yulia and L at
the jewelry fair before, Skr introduced his family to Old Mr. Shepard.“Hello, Old Mr. Shepard,” Yulia
greeted.Little miss sweet talker said in a cutesy voice, “Hello, Old Mr. Shepard!”“Oh, she’s a good girl,
isn’t she?”Old Mr. Shepard beamed.“L, do you remember what to call me?”Blinking her eyes, Judy
asked.“Aunt Judy. It’s Aunt Judy!”L nced at Skr before proudly dering.Caressing the little
girl’s plump face, Judy remarked, “You cheeky little thing!”After a pleasant chat, it hit Old Mr. Shepard
that Skr was only a few doors away if he had any questions about the workout since Skr had
moved here with his family.Delighted, Old Mr. Shepard smiled and said, “Mr. Stone, do you have a lot
of luggage in the car?“Judy and I have time. We can help you move your things!”Rolling up his sleeves,
Old Mr. Shepard was ready to get down and dirty.Not too far away, Stephanie and her boyfriend were
rendered speechless.Who on earth was Skr?Old Mr. Shepard even volunteered to help Skr with
his luggage. It was not a privilege that the second-ranked Curreys could enjoy.Amused by Old Mr.
Shepard’s antics, Skr waved his arm. “We’re good. We have everything in the house, so all we took
are some clothes.”“Alright then. We’re neighbors now. Call me if you need anything. I’m just a few
doors away.”Taking the hint, Old Mr. Shepard bade Skyler farewell.As for Stephanie and her boyfriend,
they were cowering in a corner of the security office to keep out of Skr’s sight.They feared their
presence might remind Skr of the earlier incident, and thetter maye after them.Labeling the
couple as insignificant, Skr drove to the gate of the hillside vi.As the vehicle cruised past the gate
and into the driveway, Yulia, despite being well-traveled, was taken aback by the extravagance of the
vi.“Sweetheart, do you like our new home?”With L in his arms, Skr untingly asked.“I love it so
much!“Daddy, put me down. I want to walk on my own!”The little girl demanded.Skr let go of her.
Once her feet were on the ground, L hopped and looked around curiously.Working together as a
team, Skr and Yulia moved the suitcases to the rooms and did a brief cleanup.Seeing that it was
almost lunchtime, Skr asked L if there was anything she was craving.L gave it a thought
before asking for a barbecue. Skr readily satisfied her request.Half an hourter, the trio arrived at a
nearby bar and grill.Since L was a meat lover, Skr ordered extra helpings.The skewers tasted
great. Holding a skewer in each hand, the little girl had fun taking a bite here and there.Skr soon
realized Yulia’s te of grilled skewers remained untouched. He asked with a smile, “Are you watching
your weight?”“Yeah. Unlike you, I put on pounds if I eat too much.”Yulia miserablymented.Skr
uttered in a muffled voice, “I know a way that lets you eat whatever you want without putting on weight.
Are you interested in giving it a go?”“What’s the method?” Yulia was intrigued.Skr winked. “It’s a
massage technique that helps women detox and burn fat.“But… the method is a little…
unconventional…”
