Chapter 9
The Locke family was wealthy but their business line was limited. They had been trying to venture into a new business in the past two years but chickened out at the last moment. They were able to carry on through their traditional business but soon, in three years or so, their family’s wealth would start to decline.
“I’m saying, go after Fourth Master Swan. Other than those folks from Creston City… Wait, I think even those folks from Creston are a little afraid of him. So, if you can get his attention, or get him to fall for you, not only the Lawrence family but even Eden will have to be scared of you then.”
Jasmine’s laughter could be heard from the living hall. “The charity ball tonight will have an auction for a sapphire. I heard it’s from a crown worn by the royal family in the last century. It’s very expensive. Eden just called me and said he’ll bid on the sapphire as a wedding gift for me.”
“Why not? He’s single now. Don’t worry, I’ll create a chance for you. I might not know the man but my husband is his personal doctor. I’ll go ask my dumb hubby to maybe create a chance for you guys to meet.”
Jeanne was watching George typing on his laptop. His tiny fingers were moving across the keyboard swiftly and there were a few lines of data on the screen that caught Jeanne’s eyes.
Jeanne wanted to pull her back to reality. “This isn’t some lame online novel. Monica, stop with your delusional thoughts. It’s impossible between me and Fourth Master Swan.”
“You’re beautiful, like an angel. If I were a man, I’d fall for you too. I know that b*stard Eden cheated on you with Jasmine because he didn’t get to sleep with you.”
Jeanne loved watching her son blush. Due to his high IQ, she was unable to treat him like a normal child, hence their conversation had always been about mature topics.
George was working on his laptop. His brows above his black-framed glasses furrowed and his lips protruded slightly. He looked like a serious man at work.
Jeanne already hung up the phone. She knew if she did not hang up, Monica could go on for the whole day. She had something to do.
The document showed that the Locke family planned to invest in e-commerce to save the precarious situation of their company.
“Maybe he’s waiting for his Mrs. Right and you, you might be his Mrs. Right!” Monica was already high on her imagination.
If she did not see it with her own eyes, she would never believe that a six-year-old was adroit at using a computer.
She had never experienced George asking to be pampered or tried to get her attention by jumping into her arms.
The Lawrence family also had the intention to venture into e-commerce, hence the union through marriage.
“The Locke family will be there as well. Take it as a chance to get closer with Thedus,” Alexander said.
