"What are you doing, Rom? You scared me."Romelius suddenly came to his senses. "Did you call me 'Rom'?""I don't want to call you Uncle Romelius. So, I have no choice but to call you Rom. Since it's rude to call you by your name directly." Romelius' attention was clearly not on how he was being addressed. After he calmed down, he sat next to Lana and said, "You mentioned that you were an orphan. Is that true?""Rom, do you think I would joke about something like that?" Lana asked as she looked at him disdainfully. "That's true. Where are you from? Why are you so capable?""I'm from Gilsbury. But I wasn't always there. I lived there until I was eight. I came back last year," Lana said directly. Romelius' heart skipped a beat, and his entire body was trembling. The hope he felt scared him. He didn't want to be disappointed. "Rom, why are you trembling?" Lana felt Romelius' forehead with her palm. Then, she muttered, "It doesn't seem to be a fever."Afterward, she grabbed hi

After the series of twists and turns, the banquet finally began. Everyone started to eat and chat. The Quinns were all very outstanding people. Among them were a scientist, a famous actress, a president and a genius like Rosa. Even Rachel, who married into the family, was a successful businesswoman. Their talks were bound to be related to their professions. Rosa lost the Math Olympiad to Lana and had to call her Queen Lana as per the bet. She feared it would be awkward to meet Lana at the banquet. So, she was adamant to stay in her room and ate there. Mandy wasn't a biological daughter of the Quinns. She had also been away from home for decades. None of the Quinns would be impressed by her achievements, no matter how successful she was. The main topic of discussion revolved around Rachel. "Rach, It's only been a few days since I saw you. Why does it feel like your skin is so much better?"Rachel was busy with work, and she had to raise her kids. Her skin had been in poor c

"Did you hear what they say, Grandma? Mandy isn't doing anything illegal or immoral. Why should she take the insults they are throwing at her?"The more Romelius tried to defend Mandy, the more it angered Priscilla. "Why should I care? If she is innocent, she shouldn't be affected by the words of others," Priscilla said as she glared at Mandy. With a single sentence, Priscilla instantly pinned all those disgraceful rumors about Mandy as fact. Mandy finally realized how unsightly she was to Priscilla.Mandy clutched the cards Lana gave her tightly. She stood abruptly and said, "Don't be angry, Grandmother. Romelius was just blowing things out of proportion. I'm not troubled by what Rachel and the others are saying.Rachel smirked at Mandy and said, "Mandy is right. We weren't speaking ill of you. Romelius, did you have to overreact like that?"Joyce was displeased that Romelius decided to defend Mandy while disregarding her feelings. But she quickly stepped in to play the Good S

When Lana said she mainly worked as Mandy's assistant and was a business owner on the side, everyone else thought she was joking. Even so, they couldn't prove it. Lana looked at Rachel's face, which was twisted in fear. She said coldly, "Also, I don't even know you. How did you get your hands on our serum without being a member? If you don't come clean now, I'll call the police. "The serum is a closely guarded trade secret of my company. It's also the core of my business. I don't want it to be used as a means for boasting by anyone." Lana was intimidating, and her words were logical. She had the demeanor of someone who far surpassed her age. Lana's intimidating temperament was honed through the trials and tribulations of the business world. Rachel finally realized how serious the situation was. She could only come clean with what happened. "My cousin works in your beauty parlor as a masseuse."Lana smirked and said, "A thief from within! What's her name?" Rachel was sc

"I guess we went through similarly hard lives, so we feel for each other." Lana tried to explain. "We were both adopted and had to live by other peoples' rules." There are many things that others could never relate to unless they also went through the same. That was why Lana felt for Mandy at the Quinn Residence and wanted to help her. Mandy patted Lana's head and said, "It's not worth getting on the bad side of the Quinns just to stand up for me."Lana knew what she was getting into. She smiled faintly and said, "But I think you're worth it." Mandy felt terrible. She thought Lana was brave because she didn't understand how scary the Quinns could be. But she knew about the risk of offending the Quinns. She decided that she would keep a closer eye on Lana to keep her safe.Mandy brought Lana to the most prosperous neighborhood in Dawsbury City.

He said that he wanted to surprise you since it's the first Easter since you and him are official."He wanted to give you space and let you celebrate New Year with your colleagues and friends. That's why he only went to you today."He didn't even have his breakfast before he left this morning. When Lincoln came back just now, he told me that Liam didn't have his lunch and dinner as well, just so he could have a meal with you. "Where could he have gone?

Hot Shot Divorce Chapter 169 He's Shy
After Lana brought Liam home and had him shower, she immediately went to the kitchen to cook for him.To Liam's surprise, Lana had magically whipped up four dishes and a soup for him by the time he came out of the shower. She prepared honey orange shrimp, crab omelet, roast quail, braised collard greens, and a pot of rich chicken broth.While the portions were not big, the dishes looked exquisite. Just the smell alone was making Liam's mouth water.Liam had never had much of an appetite for food. Before meeting Lana, he mostly ate whatever the chef at home cooked. However, ever since he got to know Lana, he surprisingly became picky about food. Lately, he often thought the chef in the company's cafeteria needed replacing.
