To Be Yours Again By Taylor Chapter 290


    Chapter 290 Don’t Take Me as a Fool


    “Why?” Christopher gave Harvey a perplexed look and waited for an exnation.


    Harvey merely nced at him and said casually, “It’s good to have more friends.”


    It puzzled Christopher even more. “Grandpa, don’t take me as a fool.” He was speechless at theme


    excuse. “Friends? Since when do I need friends?” he thought.


    Harvey coughed in embarrassment after his intention was exposed. “I think Jenny is a decentdy. I’d


    like you to bring her around Bardoff and bond with her.”


    “But didn’t you say that it was a joke?” Christopher recalled that Harvey had asked him to pursue Jenny


    in Parrington, but they both took it as a joke. He had long put that memory at the back of his mind.


    Something felt off when Harvey brought up the matter again after a long time.


    Feeling annoyed by the barrage of questions, Harvey grumbled, “What’s with all the questions? Don’t


    be noisy, and get it done!”


    “I won’t!” Christopher shook his head furiously. “I don’t even love her. Why do we need to bond?”


    “Who do you love, then?” Christopher had no good answer to Harvey’s question. Harvey pressed on,


    “Do you know what is love?” When he was met with silence again, he advised his grandson earnestly,


    “See? You have no idea what’s love like. If you can’t define it, how are you sure you’re not in love with


    Jenny? Perhaps you do, but you haven’t realized it yet.”


    A confounded Christopher questioned himself, “Do I love Jenny?”


    Harvey took the chance to convince him, “That’s why it’s not a bad thing to get to know each other


    better.”


    “Oh, okay.” Christopher was fully persuaded by his grandfather. However, he sensed that something


    was fishy. Before he left the study, he paused and turned around. “What’s so special about Jenny


    Walter? Why do you insist that I go after her?”


    “You little brat…”


    “Grandpa, I know you very well. You’re only motivated when you have something to gain.” Christopher


    came to his senses and formed a vague guess.


    Feeling frustrated, Harvey finally decided to get to the point. “If you marry her, the Spades will be one of


    the Ten Elites of Bardoff City by your time.”


    Christopher was taken aback by the information. The Spades might have appeared influential to the


    other families in Parrington, but they were at most a second-ss in the high society of the wealthy


    Bardoff City. They were beneath the first-ss elites, who were one ss below the Ten Elites of


    Bardoff City. The ten elite families were at the top of the hierarchy and whom he would never have the


    privilege to


    meet.


    He was shocked when Harvey proimed their family could be one of the Ten Elites if he married


    Jenny. How is that possible?” he wondered. “Grandpa, about Jenny Walter…”


    ‘Don’t ask questions. You only have the right to ask questions once you’re dating her. Your questions


    would be meaningless otherwise.” Harvey waved at him and refused to reveal more.


    Even the information he held was courtesy of the old Faust guy from Parrington-he had a favor to ask


    and leaked Jenny Walter’s identity in exchange for help. Harvey would have never learned about


    Jenny’s background if it hadn’t been for that guy. Armed with that information, he wouldn’t give up on


    the one chance at bing one of the Ten Elites.


    Christopher fell into a long silence. He seemed to be deliberating over the idea of giving up love for al


    chance at bing a member of the Ten Elites. His hesitation didn’tst long, and he came to his final


    decision.


    “Love? Happiness? Those are bullshitpared to the attractive idea of bing one of the Ten


    Elites of Bardoff City,” he thought.Original from N?velDrama.Org.
