    She had the right to turn it down.


    She was almost done talking, so she made up an excuse to escape. When she left, she saw Nathaniel


    and Matthew standing together, so she waved to them then turned and left.


    Hesper couldn’t be sure she would be able to maintain her smile if she kept getting asked about her


    marriage.


    Everyone split after Hesper walked away and Arthur saw Nathaniel there. That was when Matthew and


    Simon went over.


    “Happy birthday, Uncle.”


    Simon wasn’t interested in blending in with the crowd, so he only walked over with the present for


    Arthur when that happened. It was a tea set, nothing toovish. Arthur didn’t really like the tea set he


    had before this, so this gift was just perfect.


    He didn’t say if he was happy or unhappy about the gift but instead just ced it on the table and


    asked, “Are you going to stay here for a while, or are you leaving soon?”


    “I came back for your birthday,” Simon said. “You know that I don’t have much going on here, and I


    have something to get to when I get back.”


    “You’re just not doing proper work!” Arthur tapped his cane on the floor and cleared his throat. “If your


    dad knew that this is how you’re living life, he would climb out of his grave to give you a knock on your


    head.” N?vel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.


    Simon didn’t know what to do. “My psychologist clinic overseas is well known now. Even though. it’s


    nowhere near as sessful as Lane Holdings, I’m still doing quite well.”


    “Say that again? What about…” Arthur paused, then sighed. “Go away, you’re hurting my eyes. I don’t


    want to speak to you anymore.”


    Matthew stood there with no expression, which made Arthur angrier. Before he could put his thoughts


    into words, Matthew spoke. “Nathaniel is here. I’m sure you want to speak to him.”


    Nathaniel tilted his head and looked at Matthew who nodded. “I know you have something to say


    to Grandpa.”


    Simon smiled as Nathaniel epted his fate and nodded. “Matthew, you… alright. I do have something


    to talk to you about. I think Matt is at an age to get married.”


    Simon startedughing. Arthur looked at the three men and frowned then waved his hand. “You three


    just can’t bepared to Hesper. Go away, I don’t want to be angry.”


    The three men nodded and left.


    All the guests had arrived and the night slowly crept in.


    Hesper was looking at the newest designs on herputer when Matthew knocked on her door. She


    suddenly realized that it waste, so she closed herptop and checked her makeup in the mirror.


    Great, it was still on..


    She opened the door and saw Matthew and Nathaniel standing in front of her door. “Grandpa didn’t talk


    about marriage after I left, did he?”


    “No,” Nathaniel smirked. “Don’t worry, today isn’t the best time to bring this up. We’ll get another


    chance. I’ll do what I promised.”


    Hesper nodded and looked relieved. “Thanks.”


    Matthew looked at them suspiciously. “What are you hiding from me?”
