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 hisleft 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 theyoriginally 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?”
“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 hepretended 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 theseyears. 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 youreally 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. Mygrades there were okay. I managed to get a scholarship every year. Then, I got my master’s degreeand 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 toSumeria.
“First, I worked as a project manager at Denzel Corporation. Then, I worked as a project director atSollemne Group.
“I plan to train for two more years, then go back to my family’s company and take over the familybusiness. 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 careergoing?
“You were from the western mountains… Pig rearing seems to be quite popular in recent years. Haveyou tried that before?”
Jude’s words were full of ridicule.
Andrius 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 makemoney. Don’t feel so repulsed by it. Look at yourself… You have no education and no familybackground. Why are you looking down on rearing pigs? There’s nothing shameful about earningmoney!”
Andrius could not be bothered to pay attention to him and simply stopped talking.novelbin
“Men have to put their career first.” Jennifer glanced at Andrius, her tone full of insinuations anddisdain.” Halle, don’t find someone who only knows how to take and not give. You’ll regret it in thefuture!”
Ford also echoed, “The most shameful thing for a man is when he relies on his woman butaccomplishes nothing by himself. Appearances and flowery words are useless since they can’t put foodon 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 aparticular incident.
He was carrying out a mission to eliminate a terrorist organization and accidentally rescued a princessthat 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.
