Chapter 2022
As he thought about this, he immediately told Charlie, "Mr. Wade, I am so sorry, but I got dyed on
the road for a few days. That is the reason why I waste...” 1
ire, Jacob, and ine were even more surprised at this time.
Why was Dn apologizing to Charlie? Did they know each other?
When he saw the surprised look on his family members'' faces, Charlie smiled slightly as he
hurriedly said, "Mr. Koch, you are being too polite. Since I said that I will invite you to dinner, no
matter whether you are early orte, I will still honor my promise to you." s
Dn was taken aback for a moment because he could not understand why Charlie was suddenly
being so polite to him.
After that, he suddenly realized that he might have said the wrong things. 3
Charlie probably did not want his family to find out about this conflict with him.
Therefore, Dn hurriedly acted ordingly to Charlie''s words before he continued saying, "If that
is the case, I would like to thank Mr. Wade in advance. W e can arrange for another time to meet up
after the New Year, then."
Charlie nodded before he smiled and said to ire, his father-inw, and mother-inw, "When I
went to Eastcliff to help someone take a look at their Feng Shui, it just so happened that ire
asked me to attend Lady Thomas’s birthday banquet on her behalf. I met Mr. Koch at the birthday
banquet. When I heard that he was going toe to Aurous Hill soon, I told him that I would invite
him out for dinner when he arrives in Aurous Hill."
Dn also hurriedly nodded as he said, "That''s right. I really did not expect that my journey here
would get dyed for a few days, and my arrival eventually got dragged to the New Year Eve."
ine asked in surprise, "Mr. Koch, how did youe to Aurous Hill from Eastcliff? How could you
possibly get dyed for a few days on the road? Wouldn’t it only take you about ten hours to drive
all the way here? If you took a ne here, the journey would be even faster, then."
Dn replied awkwardly, "I... I came here on a bicycle H
"Ahh?!" ine, ire, and Jacob were all stunned and at a loss for words.
The dignified young master of the Koch family actually came all the way from Eastcliff to Aurous Hill
on a bicycle?! Why was he doing this when it was freezing during mid-winter?! 1
When Dn saw that everyone was very surprised, he could only bite the bullet and say, "The
reason why I rode a bicycle here is because I wanted to cultivate my sentiment...” 3
The few people present could not help but exchange nces with one another. 1
Cultivating sentiment? Were all the rich heirs so free nowadays?
At this time, Loreen hurriedly came forward to ease the awkwardness. She handed the gifts that she
had prepared over to Jacob and ine as she said, "Uncle and Aunt, these are some small gifts
that I prepared for both of you. Please ept it.”

Jacob replied politely, "Oh, Loreen! It is already good enough that you are here. Why did you have
to bring these gifts with you? I feel so bad that you have to spend so much money.” 2
ine also chimed in, "That''s right, Loreen! Since you are here at aunt''s house, it is also equivalent
to youing back to your own home! You don''t have to be s 0 polite with us!" 1
Even though ine was saying this, she stretched out her hands as she spoke and took the gifts
that Loreen and Dn had brought with them. 2
When Loreen saw that ine''s leg was still in a ster cast, she could not help but ask in surprise,
" Aunt, your leg has not fully recovered yet?"
ine sighed as she said, "Sigh. I had already recovered earlier. However, I met with another
ident just two days ago, and I broke my leg again b y ident." 4
Loreen hurriedly asked, "What did the doctor say? Is it serious?"
ine waved her hand before she said, "Oh! It is nothing serious. It is the same as thest time,
and I will be fine after resting and recuperating for some time." 2
Loreen nodded before she said, "Then, I will wish you a speedy recovery, Aunt!"
ine smiled as she said, "Thank you, Loreen!"
ire could not help but feel a little embarrassed because her best friend came to her house with
so many gifts, but she had not prepared any gifts in return for her. So, she hurriedly said, "Loreen,
you only told me that you wereing to visit my house so suddenly. You did not even tell me
anything in advance. You prepared so many gifts for my family but I did not have time to prepare
any gifts for you to bring back to your family in Eastcliff at all. I feel so embarrassed..." 1
Loreen smiled as she said, "Why are you still being so polite with me? You can juste and visit
me and m y family at my house when you have the opportunity t oe to Eastcliff next time."
As she spoke, Loreen nced at Charlie before she said to ire, "ire, if you have nothing to do
after the New Year, you cane to Eastcliff with Charlie for a holiday for two days. The both of
you can stay at my house! We cane back to Aurous Hill together o n the seventh day of the
New Year, then!"
ire smiled as she said, "Well, I need to think about i t first. I cannot confirm it immediately." 1
At this time, the doorbell suddenly rang. 1
Jacob hurriedly stood up before he went over. He saw a very mature and sexy superb beauty
standing outside the door through the video inte screen. 2
Jacob asked in surprise, "Hello, may I know who you are looking for?"
The other party asked politely, "Hello, is this Miss ire Wilson''s house? I am Doris Young from the
Emgrand Group. I am sorry foring to visit your house so suddenly!"
