Samantha asked the servant to clean up.

Genevieve smiled and walked behind Darrell to give him a shoulder massage.

“Dad, don’t be mad. She’s just making a suggestion. We won’t take it seriously.”

Rebecca breathed a sigh of relief.

“That’s right. We are family. There’s nothing to be angry about. Genevieve, maybe you will like Nathan when you

see him in the future!”

Darrell was about to stand up and swear when Genevieve pressed him down.

“I know what you are up to. Isn’t it because I am the CEO of Hoffman Group? To tell you the truth, your son’s degree is not even qualified to apply for a job as a security guard in our company. He can’t even get into the

company.”

Rebecca’s face darkened, and she felt a little embarrassed to be accused by someone much younger.

She gritted her teeth and smiled.

“I never thought that way. My son is going to start his own business, You are overthinking it.”

“That’s great. Originally, I wanted dad to make an exception and find a suitable position for him. Since you said

so, he must rely on his own ability to support himself. We shall mind our own business.”

Genevieve smiled and wrapped her arm around Darrell’s neck from behind.

“Dad, did you hear that? Don’t meddle in other people’s affairs!”

Darrell chuckled and understood the pit dug by Genevieve.

“All right.”

Rebecca’s face was even more gloomy. She felt anxious and angry.

It was all her fault for saying things so quickly that she missed a good opportunity.

She was annoyed to have fallen into Genevieve’s trap.

Rebecca glared angrily at Alice beside her.

She was secretly cursing Alice for keeping silent.

Monica watched the play with great interest and didn’t care about anything that was happening.

Samantha went to ask the maid to clean up the room before turning to Monica.

“Aunt Monica, stay here for a few more days. I’ll have someone sing for you every day.”

Monica smiled and nodded.

“Fine. Anyway, I’ve finished my work in town and I can rest for a few days.”

Darrell patted Genevieve’s hand happily.

“You should come back often to accompany Monica.”

“Of course.”

Rebecca’s heart was relieved, and her face just floated with joy.

Since Samantha asked the old lady to stay, they would definitely accompany her.

In this way, she would have another chance to talk about her son’s job.

However, Rebecca’s happiness was short–lived.

Samantha said, “Rebecca, Alice, you can stay at the hotel. I will ask someone to take you to the best hotel, which is convenient for shopping.”

Rebecca’s face stiffened.

She didn’t want to stay in a hotel.

No matter how good the hotel is, it won’t be as grand as the Lawrence residence.

“…”

Monica interrupted Rebecca, “That’s good. You can buy something to bring home for your family.”

“Mom, is it okay for us to stay here with you?”

Rebecca constantly hinted at her mother–in–law.

However, Monica waved her hand and said, “What’s so good about watching you all day? I need to rest. Besides, it’s inconvenient for you two to live here. Darrell and his wife are taking care of me because of filial piety. What’s the point of serving

oth of you? Come on, didn’t you hear that the hotel is the best? You haven’t stayed there in your whole life, so hurry up and leave. Don’t waste time!”

Samantha greeted the butler with a bright smile and asked him to prepare the car.

Rebecca gritted her teeth reluctantly.

But it was useless for her to say more since Monica had said so..

Alice stood up obediently and tugged at Rebecca’s clothes.

“Let’s go.”

Rebecca gritted her teeth, but then she nodded and said goodbye with a forced smile.

“Mom, if you miss us, just call me and we’ll come right away!”

The old lady didn’t care about them at all.

As soon as they left, Monica looked at Darrell happily and joked. “Well, they scolded your daughter. So, I drove

them away.”

Darrell smiled and stroked Genevieve’s hair.

“Aunt Monica, I only have one daughter. No one can bully her.”

Samantha stood up and poured tea for Monica.

“He’s always taken good care of his children, especially Genevieve. Even though Genevieve wasn’t hurt from a bump, he would cry himself first.”

Monica couldn’t help laughing. Her hair was not messy at all.

“He also protected his brother in this way last time.”

Darrell smiled and asked, “How’s the family? Are the children filial?

“Well, they are nice to me now. They know that you are good to me, so they think that I’m still useful to them. I know that,” Monica said. “You’ve given a lot of subsidies over the past few years. When I die in the future, just leave them alone and live your own lives.”

Monica was getting older, and she was never afraid of death.

She enjoyed everything as long as she could.

Even if she saw through Rebecca and Alice, she didn’t say a word and pretended to be dumb.

After dinner, Genevieve received a photo on her cell phone.

Anthony changed into pajamas and sat in the living room. He carried Goldie and took a selfie.

Goldie looked reluctant, and the dog’s eyes were full of resentment and grievance.

It didn’t forget where its fur went.

But the man’s big hand was holding its neck strongly, and it had no room to struggle.

“When will you come back?”

Genevieve was stunned for a while when she saw his message.

After all, they hadn’t chatted for a long time.

She hasn’t posted anything since she stopped her essay–long messages.

It was the first time that Anthony had asked her whereabouts.

She paused for a while and then sent an address.

“Pick me up?”

She knew that Anthony didn’t dare.

Neither did he dare to expose his relationship with the world nor face the Lawrence family like this.

Several minutes passed.

Anthony replied, “Okay”

Genevieve was shocked.

She was lying on the bed and got up immediately to change her clothes.

When she went downstairs, Samantha had just come out of the harp room. They looked at each other in

confusion.

Samantha asked suspiciously, “It’s so late. Why are you going out? Are you in a relationship?”

Genevieve was just looking for an excuse to leave when Darrell came down.

Seeing this, he hurriedly said, “There’s something wrong with the company. I asked her to deal with it. She is the CEO now, so she has to bear hardships and have a sense of responsibility!”

Genevieve nodded.

Samantha chuckled and sighed helplessly.

“I’ll accompany Mrs. Hoffman around for the next few days. I happen to have something urgent on my hand, and I’m not confident others can handle it. You can go.”

Genevieve immediately patted her chest.

“Leave it to me. There’s nothing to worry about.”

As she spoke, her phone rang.

She was afraid that Darrell and Samantha would realize something, so she hurried away.

Darrell nodded with satisfaction.

Samantha wanted to follow Genevieve, but Darrell stopped her.

“Let’s respect her privacy. If she wants to tell us, she will just bring him back.”

“You’re so optimistic. If she falls in love, I won’t be at ease.” Samantha muttered as Darrell coaxed her away.
