Chapter 28
Meanwhile, Megan rejoiced at the sight of Selena’s hesitancy. This matter is getting out of hand, but
the poordy has no idea that I’m just putting on a show all the time. I can’t wait to see how she
cleans up the mess.
“I don’t have a say in this matter.” Selena’s voice still sounded cold as it had always been from the
beginning.
“Oh,e on! You both are a couple, so I’m sure your words carry some weight, don’t they?
Furthermore, I heard he dotes you on quite a lot, so I think he’ll definitely listen to you,” Rnd said
and waved his hand.
“That’s right. I can tell that he really dotes on you too. Unless you’re still mad at Dad or me, you
would kindly lend us a hand, wouldn’t you? After all, we’re a family, right?”
“Exactly! We’re a family, and that’s why we should bear no grudge against each other. Please tell
him that we’d like to dine together someday. In fact, when Meredith bes a Fowler, he and
Pierre will be inws by then. Thus, I’d say this is promising to him!” Rnd said with a smile on his
face.
“Alright then, I’ll tell him when I get back. If there is nothing else, I should get going.” Selena couldn’t
stand sticking around any longer, as she was ready to leave after giving a terse reply. When she got
to the door, she suddenly thought of something and turned around. “My mom used to have a pair of
beautiful bracelets, but I can’t find them now. Do you know where they are?”
Rnd and Jezebelle exchanged gazes with a surprised look on their faces upon hearing that, but
Selena managed to notice their suspicious reactions, sensing something amiss.
“Oh, really? I can’t remember anything about them,” Rnd answered while scratching his head.
“How could you not remember those bracelets? Mom used to wear it on her wrists all the time.”
“s! It’s been years since west saw it, so what does it matter to you, anyway? I bet they must
have been misced somewhere long ago,” Rnd replied as he subconsciously tried to avoid
Selena’s gaze.
“I’m sure those bracelets must be somewhere in the house. All it takes is just a little effort of
searching. Actually, I’ve been having the same dream these few days, in which my mom was asking
me for them. So, please find them for me.” Knowing that Rnd had a favor to ask of her, Selena
was sure that the man wouldn’t turn her down.
Soon, she heard the man say, “Alright, I’ll get Jezebelle to look for themter.”
After that, Selena responded with silence as she turned around and left the ce.
At the same time, Rnd happily sipped his tea while humming and patting hisp. Seeing the
man’scent look, Jezebelle rolled her eyes at him. “Look at you! Getting cocky already, huh?”
“Haha! I am cocky indeed! What’re you gonna do about that? Peopleughed at me back then for
having three daughters but not even a son. Look at where they are now! One of them is gonna be
the wife of Lake Corporation’s president, while the other two are marrying the presidents of JNS
Corporation and Fowler Corporation. By then, I can just lie in my bed and still get rich!”
Jezebelle looked askance at him and said, “I hope you’re aware that your daughter is not someone
who rolls over so easily. She is already asking for her reward even before starting to do her job. I’d
like to see how you’re gonna answer her about the bracelets when shees back for that.”
“Rx! She was just a little girl when her mom passed away, so I doubt she can still remember how
the bracelets look like. Therefore, any pair of bracelets will be good enough to fool her.” Rnd was
apparently not concerned by the matter at all.
Jezebelle grunted and said, “If only everything was that simple. Anyway, she is your daughter, so
this is none of my business.”
Two dayster, Selena invited Pierre to her house by texting him, while the man happened to be
reading Meredith’s message in his bed at that time. ‘Are you home, Pierre? I’d like to swing by and
visit Joaquin and Jameson since I’m free today. Let’s have dinner together since we haven’t done
that in a while.’ In fact, Meredith would pay Pierre a visit at the Fowler Residence whenever she
was free.
Nevertheless, since both of their messages appeared on the top, Pierre subconsciously opened up
his chatroom with Selena. ‘I’ll be there soon.’ Soon, Pierre showed up at Selena’s house in the
afternoon. When thedy opened the door, she peeked behind him and saw no signs of the kids.
“Where are your boys?”

“They didn’t tag along.”
While Selena seemed disappointed to hear that, her reaction somehow upset Pierre a little deep
down. Did she invite me over because of my sons?
“Oh, I should have told you to bring them along because I specially made their favorite dish today.
Anyhow, maybe you could take some away for them when you leaveter.” It was only after
finishing her sentence that Selena let Pierre into the house.
“Mr. Handsome!” Juniper excitedly ran toward Pierre the moment the man entered the house. While
the girl’s adorable voice made Pierre’s day, he was reminded of his sons, who usually behaved
indifferently toward him. I wish my boys could be like Juniper.
Soon, the three of them began to enjoy dinner at the dining table full of dishes that were Selena’s
specialty.
“Today is your lucky day. I wouldn’t have cooked so much had I known you’de alone,” Selena
said as she distributed the tes and cutlery around.
Meanwhile, Juniper covered her mouth while tittering. “Mr. Handsome, you’re the first man Mom has
ever cooked for. As you can see, she cares about you a lot!”
Taken aback by the girl’s innocent reply, Selena felt speechless. Seriously, Juniper?! “Be quiet, girl.”
After hearing her mother, the little girl ced a piece of chicken in her mouth and started chewing it.
In the meantime, Pierre only responded with silence. Nevertheless, he approved of Selena’s
cooking after trying her dishes a few times. Therefore, her cooking was one of the reasons why he
came over.
“By the way, I’ve just enrolled Juniper into Sunflower International Kindergarten. I bet you must have
heard of that school, right? Since Jojo and Jamie are about the same as Juniper, it’s time for them
to go to school. So, I’ve signed them up too and prepared everything necessary for their
enrollment.”
Upon hearing thedy, Pierre froze in ce. K-Kindergarten? My old man hasn’t nned to let his
grandchildren go to school.
“Don’t tell me you have no ns of enrolling your boys into a kindergarten. Kids should start
schooling when they reach the age of three. In fact, some of them do that even before they turn
three. Furthermore, Sunflower International Kindergarten is a good choice out of all the schools. I
surveyed that myself, so you can trust me. In this case, let’s consider it decided then,” Selena
added while proudly cing a slice of meat on Juniper’s te.
Pierre was speechless. For the first time, he got to see thedy’s domineering side. How could she
enroll my children into a kindergarten without informing me ahead? I didn’t have a chance to speak
my mind.
“Wow! We look just like a family!” Juniper eximed while drinking her soup.
Selena paused, taken aback by the girl’s response. Deep down, she agreed to her daughter that
her conversation with Pierre did look like a discussion between parents about enrolling their child in
a kindergarten. “Just finish your meal.”
After the meal, Juniper sat on the couch with Pierre while Selena proceeded to wash the dish. Upon
taking a glimpse of her mother, who was busy in the kitchen, the girl leaned closer to the man and
said, “I’m sorry that I ruined your proposal n thest time, but don’t you worry because Mom’s
birthday is just around the corner. You could propose to her by then, and I believe that’ll make her
even happier.”
Proposal? That’s right! I need my ring! My ring!
