Chapter 720


    The neighborhood Daniel and Hannah were living in was exceptionally crowded today.


    Nearly all of the residents were gathered around the entrance as they discussed about what was about


    to happen.


    Hanging above the entrance was a banner that read, A warm wee to the famous actor Mr. Henry


    Jones.


    The residents had been informed a long time ago that Henry Jones would being here today to visit


    his mother, Mrs. Jones.


    Henry Jones had be quite famous recently and was an idol to many of the youngsters.


    If they were able to get a picture with him and post it online, they would be the center of attention.


    Thus, they had been waiting there since the crack of dawn.

    In the middle of the crowd was none other than Mrs. Jones.


    “Mrs. Jones, I told you that Henry was bound to make something out of himself.”


    “In my opinion, Mrs. Jones is the only reason behind Henry’s sess.”


    “That’s right! Mrs. Jones has always been known throughout the neighborhood for being a well-


    mannered and well-educated woman. The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree after all.”


    “But Mrs. Jones, you can’t forget about your roots now that you’vee into money. No matter what


    where you move to in the future, this ce will always be your home.”


    “That’s right! If you’re going to move out, I’ll help you take care of the cleaning of your house.”


    Mrs. Jones replied pretentiously, “Don’t worry, guys. I’ve lived here my whole life. Of course, I wouldn’t


    want to leave this ce. What’s more, I’m not used to staying in vis and mansions.”


    “Haha! That’s great!” the crowd cheered.


    Noticing the crowd after returning home from work, Daniel and Hannah naturally approached them to


    find out what was going on.


    But as soon as they saw the red banner that had been put up, they immediately realized what was


    happening.


    They exchanged nces and decided to enter through a side gate instead to steer clear of the crowd.


    Their apartment was adjacent to Mrs. Jones. A few years ago, they got into an argument with her as


    she had strewn her rubbish all over the corridor. Thus, they hadn’t been on the best terms for the past


    couple of years.


    Now that all the other residents were waiting at the entrance to wee Mrs. Jones’ son, they


    definitely didn’t want to go too close. Otherwise, they would most certainly get ridiculed and mocked by


    Mrs. Jones.


    Unfortunately, Mrs. Jones still managed to spot them. Walking over to the both of them, she asked “Hi,


    Daniel. Hi, Hannah. Did both of you juste back from work?”


    Not wanting to be rude, Hannah smiled and replied, “Yep, that’s right.”


    “You two must have had a hard day at work,” she ‘sympathized’, “Why don’t the both of youe and


    have lunch with us? That way, you won’t have to go through all the trouble of whipping something up.”


    “My son’sing back and he’s treating all our neighbors to lunch. Look, the food truck and tables


    have all been set up already.”


    At that moment, there were about ten or so tables on the open area.


    There was even a heavenly aroma wafted out of the food trucks as the chefs bustled about preparing


    the meal.


    However, Daniel turned down her offer. “That’s fine. We can always just go home and make ourselves


    a meal.”


    Based on his understanding of Mrs. Jones, she was going to make use of the meal to show off. Then,


    she would make his wife and him look bad.


    They might as well skip it altogether and not attend.


    Much to his surprise, the expression on Mrs. Jones’ face soured immediately. “Are you not even willing


    to do this for me?”


    “You have misunderstood,” Hannah hastily exined, “It’s just that it’s been really busy in the clinic.


    There are still more than ten patients waiting in line.”


    “We were just going to have a simple lunch before hurrying back to the clinic.”


    As she spoke, Daniel put his hand around hers and prepared to leave.


    “Daniel,” Mrs. Jones warned coldly, “I hope that you’ll think this through.”


    “Right now, your daughter’s the one who is begging to work with my son. If you don’t even have the


    decency to have a meal with us, my son might just terminate the partnership in a fit of anger.”


    “This...” A consternated expression immediately shed across both of their faces.
