Chapter 276
Hopson remained oblivious to Terrance’s identity, but when it came to the Cadogan
Group, ignorance seemed imusible. After all, ric’s name held substantial weight
within theirpany.
Janice possessed the same awareness as she stood beside Hopson, and their
expressions immediately changed.
“Are you looking for us?”
Seeing the couple’s shocked demeanor, Terrance took out several documents from his
briefcase and repeated their names.
“Hopson Anderson and Janice Xenon. That’s both of you, correct? The photographs
match,” he remarked.
Intrigued, both of them leaned in, confirming their personal information and images
portrayed on the documents.
“Yes, it’s us. May we know why you are looking for us?”
“This is not an appropriate ce for discussion. Shall we move inside for a
“Absolutely, pleasee in,” Hopson swiftly responded, extending an invitation into the
sanctuary of their home.
Once within, Terrance swiftly surveyed the surroundings, aligning his observations with
the information outlined in the documents. Indeed, their living conditions appeared
average–their struggles were evident as they managed to scrape together funds for a
down payment but found it challenging to meet their monthly mortgage payments and
their child’s school fees. Moreover, additional expenses for household items remained
beyond their financial reach.
Seeking to extend hospitality, Janice poured a cup of tea for Terrance.
After declining the offer, Terrance promptly produced the documents, ready to delve
into the purpose of his visit.
“Considering that both you and your spouse have afternoonmitments, I shall not
detain you for long. Let us proceed directly with the matter at hand.”
At that, Terrance proceeded to exin the purpose behind his visit, leaving the couple
momentarily stunned, their gazes locked in a shared moment of disbelief.

“Did we hear you correctly? Are you being serious?”
Terrance nodded in affirmation.
“You heard me correctly. ric intends to provide financial support for your child’s
education.”
Puzzled, Janice couldn’t help but express her confusion. “Why, though? Isn’t
sponsorship usually reserved for children in rural areas or those with impoverished
circumstances? Our family’s situation doesn’t seem that dire, does it?”
“Indeed, sponsorship is usually provided to children from rural regions, but there is a
reason why Mr. Cadogan is offering support to you. It’s not because your family is
impoverished, but rather because there is a distant connection between your ancestors
and the Cadogan Family.”
He certainly wouldn’t mention that ric was doing it to get closer to his own children.
Janice was perplexed. “A distant familial connection?”
Upon hearing this, Hopson suddenly pped his thigh.
“No wonder my great–grandmother used to talk about our ancestors having some
rtionship with the Cadogan Family in Gandra. I thought she was just rambling in her
old age, but it turns out it’s true.”
“That’s right. If you agree to it, you need to sign this document. I’ll head to the school
this afternoon and send your child to the other school.”

“Which school?”
Terrance mentioned the name of the school where the two little ones were studying.
Upon hearing the name of the school, the couple’s jaws dropped in shock.
“Isn’t that an elite school?”
“Of course, if we are providing support, it should naturally be for the best school. The
same goes for the future. As long as your child performs well, Mr. Cadogan will sponsor
their studies at any university they get admitted into.”
“Regarding the inconvenience of your child traveling home after school, we have a
solution for that as well. Starting tomorrow, both of you can directly report to the
Cadogan Group and start working there. We have also found a house for
conveniently located near thepany.”

Now, the couple waspletely dumbfounded.
Supporting their child’s education was one thing, but finding jobs for them and
arranging a house? Could such good fortune truly exist in this world?
Hopson couldn’t believe it.

“You’re not trying to deceive us, are you? Are you some real estate developer trying to
use this scheme to get us to buy an expensive house?”
In the next moment, Terrance pped a property certificate in front of them. “The
house has been fully paid for. The both of you just need to move in.”
Twenty minutester, the couple bid farewell to Terrance with gratitude and sent him
off downstairs. They promised to resign from their jobs and arrange for their child’s
withdrawal from school in the afternoon, ensuring that they would allow their son to
join the new school immediately the day after.
Terrance was satisfied. “Remember not to dy the arrangements. I expect to see you
tomorrow morning.”
“Don’t worry, it’ll be no problem. We’ll move tonight, even if it means not getting any
sleep.”

Afterpleting everything, Terrance finally left, feeling satisfied.

Victoria went to the bank and withdrew 7,000 bucks. Since she had to carry various
items for her kids, her charming little bag had long been reced with arger one,
abandoning the one she used to carry during her teenage years.
The money fitfortably inside her bag.
She never expected the other party to ask for 7,000 bucks in cash.
6/2
He had been so generous with his tips, so what could he possibly do with a mere 7,000
bucks?
Now, Victoria truly understood that demanding repayment was just a pretense; the real
intention was to meet her.
As for why he wanted to meet her…
Victoria reserved two seats and offered the one by the window to the other party.
She nned to follow Summer’s advice and see what the other party truly desired.
At the same time, ric sat upstairs in the restaurant with a dark expression, his
fixed on the entrance downstairs. The atmosphere around him was undeniably gloomy.
Terrance could also feel the chill in the air as he sat beside him. He subconsciously
adjusted his clothes and looked at ric.
“Mr. Cadogan, Miss Victoria has agreed to meet you. Why are you still angry?”
As soon as the words left his mouth, ric responded with a cold and eerieugh. “Is
she here to meet me or another man?”
Upon hearing this, Terrance couldn’t help but disy an expression of speechlessness.
“Regardless of who she’s here to meet, aren’t you the guy?”
ric pursed his lips tightly and remained silent.
Although he didn’t utter a word, ric’s demeanor made it clear that he was still upset.
As such/Terrance asked, “Mr. Cadogan, are you still jealous of yourself?”
Of course, the silence was the only response he received.
Chapter 276 Here for Another Man’s Appointment
In truth, Terrance could somewhat understand why ric would be angry. Victoria
agreed to meet a man whose identity she didn’t even know, yet she would never agree
to meet ric; such a disparity could make one feel uneasy.
However, Terrance could only offer a gentle reminder, saying, “Mr. Cadogan, I don’t
mean to criticize you, but from Victoria’s perspective, both of you haven’t seen each
other for five years. It has been a tough journey for her to raise two children on her own
during this time, and she left when you already divorced her. As such, her feelings
toward you would be diminished, not heightened. It’s not surprising that she would
refuse to see you.”
As he spoke, ric suddenly cast a piercing gaze at him, startling Terrance before he
immediately became silent, not daring to utter another word.
However, after a while, ric furrowed his brows and continued to stare at him, “What
were you going to say next? Go on.”
Terrance chuckled inwardly and continued, “Therefore, ric, you must adjust your
mindset. Instead of being mad at her, you should be grateful that she has spent these
five years raising the children alone without getting married. That’s the only reason you
have a chance now. After all, it has been five years.”
