Chapter 1568


    Chapter 1568


    [I went to the cemetery to pay my respects to my ancestors. There’s only my mother and my aunt at


    home. You should find a way to quietly leave on your own, and whatever you do, don’t let them find out


    that you are here.]


    Steven read the note with a grin. She had awakened first, knowing full well that his presence in her


    room could be discovered at any moment. Yet, she hadn’t woken him up or ushered him away. That


    certainly proved that Hannah still had a soft spot for him.


    Steven carefully folded the note and tucked it into his pocket. This was the first note Hannah had left for


    him, definitely a memento to keep.


    As for how to evade Pandora and Aunt Ableson to leave the Ableson household, it was not even within


    Steven’s consideration. He got dressed and swaggered downstairs.


    Predictably, he bumped into Pandora and Aunt Ableson busying themselves on the first floor.


    Last year, Steven hade to the Ableson household for New Year’s Eve, and Aunt Ableson had met


    him once.


    Just that once, and despite not having seen him since, Aunt Ableson recognized him instantly, “Isn’t


    this Steven?”e2


    Steven grinned, “Aunt, nice to see you. I didn’t expect you to remember me.”


    Aunt Ableson didn’t hide her admiration for Steven, “You look even better than those stars in TV shows


    with this temperament and look. I can’t forget about you even if I wanted to.”


    Steven thanked her for thepliment.


    Aunt Ableson said, “How did youe down from upstairs? When did you arrive? Are you here to


    remarry our Hannah? Our Hannah is a good girl.”


    Aunt Ableson didn’t stop talking. Pandora, afraid she might say something inappropriate, gently nudged


    her, “Ahem.”


    Aunt Ableson fell silent.


    Steven turned to Pandora, “Hannah told me yesterday that you wanted me toe over for meal, so I


    came early. Even took a nap in Hannah’s room.”


    Pandora knew the truth wasn’t as such, but she couldn’t expose it, so she yed along, “Yes, Hannah


    and her dad went to pay respects to our ancestors, and they’ll be back by noon. If you’re not busy, you


    can watch TV upstairs or catch more sleep.”


    Steven said, “I’ve got some free time, so let me help you prepare lunch together”:


    Pandora had some doubts about his cooking skills, but after thinking it over, she nodded and said,


    “Sure, why not.”


    Steven’s sweet talk and helpfulness soon had Aunt Ableson beaming. Consequently, he learned about


    Hannah’s middle school love letters and other details.


    Pandora, standing to the side, couldn’t prevent it, so she decided not to intervene..


    If it hadn’t been for past events, she would’ve been quite pleased with Steven as a son-inw. He was


    handsome and wealthy, who wouldn’t like such a


    son-inw? But…


    “Steven,e with me.” Pandora turned towards the kitchen, Steven promptly followed.


    Pandora opened a pot, the aroma of pot roast filled the air. “Can you tend to the fire?”


    Steven, “What fire?”


    Pandora, “The roast isn’t tender enough, nor has it absorbed the vors well, It needs more simmering.


    The stove’s fire is dwindling, and we need to add more fire.”


    Steven, “I can handle that.”


    Despite being kept on his toes all morning, Steven hadn’t shown a hint of impatience.


    Even though it was a cold day, he managed to break out in a sweat, and now he was dutifully tending


    to the fire. There was no trace of the typical Dixon Group CEO in him at this moment.

    Pandora, with her years of wisdom, could tell if Steven’s feelings for Hannah were genuine. “Steven, as


    long as you treat Hannah well, we, as elders, won’t stand in your way.”


    Hearing this, Steven suddenly looked up, “Pandora, what did you just say?”
