In the room.
“Uncle Ford and Aunty Jennifer, please have a seat.”
After the scene earlier, Jude felt incredibly smug. He entered the door and started to act very
magnanimously with Ford and the others.
Ford and Jennifer exchanged a look and sat next to each other at the round table.
If Jude sat across them, then Halle only had two seats left to choose from. She had to sit either on his
left or his right. It was quite near regardless, thus in a way, they were quite thoughtful.
Just then…
“Andrius, sit here!”
Halle pressed Andrius to sit down in the spot across from her parents. It was the seat that they
originally wanted to save for Jude.
Now, Halle and Jude sandwiching Andrius.
Ford and Jennifer’s expressions instantly darkened.
“What is up with you today, Halle?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Halle, if you let him sit there, then where will Jude sit?”
The two questioned in dissatisfaction.
Halle sat down on Andrius‘ left and pointed to his right, saying firmly, “Can’t he just sit there?”
Jude also had an unpleasant expression. However, he could not blame Halle for this matter, so he
pretended to be generous and said, “Uncle Ford and Aunt Jennifer, don’t blame Halle. In recent years,
I’ve traveled all over the country and seen many things. Sitting together doesn’t mean anything.”
Jennifer’s eyes instantly lit up, and she asked curiously, “Jude, tell me about where you’ve been these
years. I want to hear all about it.”
“Ahem…” Jude cleared his throat, looking slightly more smug. “It’s a long list, Aunt Jennifer, but if you
really want to know, then I’ll summarize.”
As Jennifer and Ford perked up their ears, Halle pursed her lips in exasperation.
“After graduating from high school, my dad sent me to Harvard on the other side of the world. My
grades there were okay. I managed to get a scholarship every year. Then, I got my master’s degree
and came back two years ago.”
Jennifer gasped. “Jude, I didn’t expect you to be a postgraduate. You hid that fact quite well.”
Ford nodded. “Jude is a genuine talent.”
“It’s nothing much.” Jude waved his hand seemingly casually, but he was actually filled with pride.
“After coming back, I went from north to south, then west to east. I explored around before returning to
Sumeria.
“First, I worked as a project manager at Denzel Corporation. Then, I worked as a project director at
Sollemne Group.
“I plan to train for two more years, then go back to my family’s company and take over the family
business. My dad is getting older and always asks me to share some of his load,” Jude spoke
eloquently.
Ford nodded continuously and praised, “Zack must be overjoyed to have an exceptional son like you.”
Jennifer was all smiles. “Who wouldn’t like a child like Jude?”
“You flatter me, Uncle and Aunt.” Jude became even more smug and suddenly looked at Andrius. “Mr.
Moonshade, I wonder what rich experience you’ve been through in recent years. How is your career
going?
“You were from the western mountains… Pig rearing seems to be quite popular in recent years. Have
you tried that before?”
Jude’s words were full of ridicule.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAndrius replied casually, “I’ve never reared pigs, and I’m not interested to.”
“Tsk…” Jude clicked his tongue and said teasingly, “Mr. Moonshade, raising pigs is also a way to make
money. Don’t feel so repulsed by it. Look at yourself… You have no education and no family
background. Why are you looking down on rearing pigs? There’s nothing shameful about earning
money!”
Andrius could not be bothered to pay attention to him and simply stopped talking.
“Men have to put their career first.” Jennifer glanced at Andrius, her tone full of insinuations and
disdain.” Halle, don’t find someone who only knows how to take and not give. You’ll regret it in the
future!”
Ford also echoed, “The most shameful thing for a man is when he relies on his woman but
accomplishes nothing by himself. Appearances and flowery words are useless since they can’t put food
on the table! A career is the most important.”
Their words were full of contempt for Andrius.
As Andrius listened to them, he became curious and carefully thought about it. He remembered a
particular incident.
He was carrying out a mission to eliminate a terrorist organization and accidentally rescued a princess
that the terrorists kidnapped. The princess had later gifted him an oil field.
Andrius had no time to deal with it, so he left it to them to develop, and they transferred him the profits
every year.
