Chapter1433LackofEmotionalIntelligence
Alessandra’s voice came through the phone again, snapping Emmanuel back to reality with a slight start.
Should he tell her about this?
“Mom, I’m at a banquet right now, so it’s not convenient to discuss this topic.
Let''s talk about it next time! There’s progress with Roselynn here, and I''ll update youter.”
Emmanuel decided not to tell Alessandra for now. He needed to confirm things first, or it could cause trouble.
“All right. Even if you don’t want to talk about it, you can hold on the line.”
Alessandra then mentioned something else. “Your Uncle Benny’s family is starting apany in Onza, and they’ve bought a big
house for weekend gatherings. I''ll visit Onza to see you and Mackenzie!”
“Starting apany and buying a big house?”
Emmanuel was surprised to hear this news.
Although Benny''s family had been in business for many years, it was mostly small ventures. Making a few million a year was
already a stretch. Now they were starting apany?
And not in Yeringham, but in Onza?
“Yes, it’s truly a blessing from our ancestors. The Lowe families are doing well and thriving!”
Alessandra was a kind-hearted person, and she was genuinely happy to hear this news. Even though Benny had always looked
down on her in the past and even refused to lend her money, they were still family. She didn’t hold grudges.
“All right. We''ll go visit them together when the timees.”
Emmanuel had no ns for the weekend, either. However, his uncle’s housewarming was also a joyous asion for the Lowe
family, so he had to attend and show his support!Content bel0ngs to N?vel(D)r/a/ma.Org.
Meanwhile, Julian finally caught up with Roselynn and, in a moment of desperation, grabbed her hand.
“Roselynn, are you angry?”
“No! Why would | be angry?”
Roselynn turned to Julian with a forced smile. “It’s just too crowded in the banquet hall, so | came out to get some fresh air.”
“| don’t care if you’re angry or not. There’s something | suddenly want to say.”
Julian said earnestly, “I won’t take photos for that woman just now or anyone else. From now on, | only want to take photos for
you.”
Boom!
The unexpected confession struck Roselynn’s heart.
How could this man say such things out of the blue?
Wasn''t it cheesy?
Coincidentally, as the banquet was about to begin, Althea walked arm in arm with her husband and some Onza rtives through
the doorway and happened to see the young couple holding hands outside!
“Oh! Isn''t that Julian?”
Awoman eximed, “So Julian has found a girlfriend?”
Another middle-aged man smiled. “Julian has good taste. His girlfriend looks healthy and attractive!”
“Yes. She’s quite decent-looking.”
“He’s finally off the market. Congrattions. | never thought he would choose this woman...”
Despite the ttering words from those around her, Althea was not pleased.
On the contrary, her gaze grew colder.
She knew very well that these were just polite words from rtives and friends out of respect.

“Let''s go. The banquet is about to start!”
In the end, Althea put away her anger and invited a group of rtives and friends to take their seats.
But her demeanor did not escape Cindy’s eyes!
After taking their seats, Cindy specifically walked over to Althea’s table and struck up a conversation. “Aunt Althea, what''s the
deal with Julian and
Ashton? Did they choose their own boyfriends and girlfriends? As elders, shouldn’t you be keeping an eye on them?”
Althea raised her eyes slightly and asked Cindy, “What do you mean?”
The faces of Althea and her husband had already darkened when they heard Cindy’s words.
