Serenity agreed, “It’s reasonable, yes, but before Dylan makes up his mind, you can still give it a shot.”Imogen smiled and said, “Serenity, Jasmine, let’s eat and stop talking about men. Both your husbands are good men, so you’ll feel happy to talk about them, but the man I’m interested in isn’t interested in me. Talking about him will just ruin my appetite. Like Sonny said, eating is king. Let’s just eat.”Serenity and Jasmine stopped there. They had no way of influencing Dylan when it came to his feelings.“Well, it’s not like I didn’t get anything out of this visit—I got two new friends. Whether or not Dylan and I end up together, the three of us will still be friends. You guys mustn’t renounce me. Either way, I’m wrapped around both of your thick thighs, so you can forget about trying to kick me away.”Serenity could not help but laugh.Jasmine laughed too and said, “You’re speaking casually with us already. We can’t just abandon you now, can we?”Imogen was very good at co

“Have you eaten, Dad?”Hank replied warmly, “Not yet. I’m not hungry yet, so I’ll only eat after I’ve taken two more customers. You’ve eaten, right?”Sonny replied, “Yeah. Aunt Ser and Jazz took me out to eat and we ran into Aunt Chel and the rest. Lucas said hi to me but, I don’t why, Aunt Chel covered his mouth. Lucas’s granddad and grandmom were there too, there were so many of them eating together. Only Aunt Ser and Jazz and Jen were with me, just the four of us.”Hank did not pay much attention to this at first and laughed. “Oh, you ran into Aunt Chel? Did you say hi to her?”“No,” Sonny answered honestly. “Lucas called out to me but Aunt Chel covered his mouth. Dad, what does Aunt Chel mean by that?”Hank was silent for a moment. “Your Aunt Chel… You don’t have to mind her.”He finally realized it. Had Chelsea been afraid that Sonny and the rest would try to join their table if she said hi and did not let Lucas talk to Sonny because of that?Being her brother, Hank did und

Imogen retorted, “We just hit it off right away, alright? Why do you have to call it kissing ass?”Dylan paused and said, “Since you’re back and we bumped into each other, why don’t we go on a walk? It’ll help with your digestion and we can talk while we’re at it. I won’t be coming here tomorrow. I’m busy too, you know.”After a moment of thought, Imogen also felt that it was better to talk it out that night, though she knew Dylan’s answer even without doing so. He had made himself very clear last night. She just had not said that she was going to give up on him, which gave him no choice but to talk to her.“Alright, I’ll have to trouble you to walk with me so I can digest, then. But what if I get hungry again after we get back? You know that exercising and using up energy will make one hungry.”Dylan was speechless for a moment. “I finally understand why you, Jasmine, and Serenity managed to hit it off right away.”They were all foodies! Why did he not know she liked eating that

Dylan grumbled to himself. Why did Grandma May and Imogen both say he had better not regret it? What did he have to regret? Could he not know who he really liked, what he really wanted? He was no longer a three-year-old kid. He was almost thirty and very much had a mature mind. He would not do anything he would regret. Imogen said something so similar to what Grandma May said, it was no wonder that she picked Imogen.“Ms. Doyle, I’ve never done anything I’ve come to regret. Even if I didn’t make the right choice, I would face it openly without regrets.”Imogen laughed. “Alright, I know. Since there’s no way you’ll fall for me, I won’t force it. It’s not like I’m unmarriageable. Why should I cling to you? I’d end up lowering my worth instead.”She had also been pampered and raised as the apple of her family’s eye. It was not like no one wanted her. The Doyles were a distinguished family in Huntington too. She had both pedigree and status. As long as she wanted to get married, there

A few minutes later, Dylan’s driver, Leo, arrived and parked by the roadside. Dylan stopped him from getting out and got into the car by himself.The driver turned to look and asked instinctively, “Didn’t you leave with a beautiful young lady, sir?”Dylan settled in and said, “You can stop looking. I called a taxi for her and sent her back to the hotel. Let’s go. I want to go back to my place.”He had his own place in the city and was not planning to go back to Wildridge Manor. He had only just gone back there in the daytime.Leo said as he drove, “I thought that lady was your girlfriend.”“No, she’s Serenity’s friend. I’ve known her for only a few months myself. I still don’t know where my future wife is, Leo.” Dylan really had no clue. He did not know where Chameleon Fox lived. She had come to the York Corporation headquarters in Wiltspoon to look for him before, but when she heard he did not work there, she left.He lied back when Zachary called him because he did not dare adm
