Chapter 5
The vis in Royal Bay started at a minimum of 1,000 square meters.
ording to current housing prices in that area, it would be at least 50 million dors.
Helena thought that since this vi was bought by Grandpa for her, she would never let it go.
Herman nced at Helena with a cold expression and said, “I made it very clear. This house is for
Nash and his wife. Since you don’t want to marry Nash, this house has nothing to do with you!”
Helena noticed how her grandfather’s attitude toward her had made a 180-degree turn and
immediately approached him while acting cute. “Grandpa… The people living in Royal Bay are all
influential and dignitaries. If I can live there, I can also establish more connections for us, right?”
That was all secondary. The main reason was that the Watsons had also bought a house in Royal Bay.
If her parents lived in Royal Bay, they could strengthen the rtionship between the two families.
Herman shook off Helena’s hand. “My mind is made up. You don’t need to say anything more!”
Helena calling off the marriage had left him utterly humiliated.
If it were not for Nash being understanding, he would not know how to exin it to Master Calcraft.
The reason he doted on Helena before was that she was Nash’s fiance.
Now that Nash’s fiance was Hera, he would no longer pay attention to Helena’s family.
“Grandpa..” Helena’s eyes turned red, and she looked like she would burst into tears at any moment.
Before, every time she acted spoiled, her grandfather would agree to all her conditions. Now, it seems
like that trick would not work anymore.
“Mr. Zoel, go and handle this matter immediately!” Herman firmly instructed theirwyer, Mr. Zoel.
“I understand, Mr. Lewis!” Mr. Zoel said as he left with his briefcase.
Helena felt utterly hopeless, and she looked at Hera and Nash with a resentful gaze.
She could not fathom why her grandfather valued this country bumpkin so much.
Hubert’s face turned sinister, and a hint of murderous intent appeared in his eyes.
Meanwhile, Nash subtly nced at Hubert.
When Hubert saw Hera arriving earlier, a brief moment of surprise shed in his eyes.
Combined with the rtionships between the two families, Nash had already guessed who the
mastermind behind those assassins was.
Hera tightly grasped her mother’s arm and looked up, saying, “Mom, I was right, wasn’t I? Grandpa
values Nash, not Helena!”
The fact that Grandpa gave away the Royal Bay vi was enough to show Nash’s importance in his
heart.
She had previously fantasized about running thepany well and buying a vi for her parents in
Royal Bay in the future.
However, reality was often cruel.
In the past two quarters, thepany’s profits had decreased by several times.
If things were to go on like this, thepany would undoubtedly go bankrupt within two years.
Now that Nash was her fiance and Grandpa valued Nash so much, he would surelye to their
rescue.
“My daughter has struck gold! Unlike some people who can’t do anything right and have no vision!”
Lauren Mare looked at Nash from a distance and found him more and more pleasing to the eye as she
looked at him.
Meanwhile, Harrison’s mouth was twitching on the side. ‘Just spit my name out, why don’t you? Why
beat about the bush?’
At this moment, Herman had already pulled Nash to the seat to have a meal.
Hubert had found an excuse and left angrily.
Then, Helena approached Hera.
She looked arrogantly at Hera and sneered. “Hera, don’t think that getting a vi means you’re the
apple of the Lewises’ eye now. I let you have that vi! And that worthless trash, he’s just garbage that I
rejected! You just picked up my trash! Wait until I marry Kai. I’ll show you what a crow ispared to a
phoenix!”
Helena vented all her anger out on Hera.
Listening to the unbearable mockery, Hera trembled all over and stared at Helena, saying, “Don’t push
it too far, Helena! I’ve already been very tolerant of you!”
For so many years, she had endured Helena’s insults and abuse.
Now that she had finally risen above it all, she had no intention of continuing to endure in silence.
Harrison stood in front of his daughter and squinted his eyes, saying, “Helena, you’re already a grown-
up. You should keep your bad habits in check!”
Perhaps it was because Herman had spoiled Helena too much in the past, so he never dared to speak
too harshly.
Lauren pushed Harrison aside and stared at Helena coldly, saying, “Helena, aren’t you going too far?”
Helena felt uneasy when she was met with Lauren’s cold gaze.
Lauren came from an influential family and graduated from Capiton University of Finance and
Economics. She exuded the aura of a businesswoman.
If it were not for Lauren, her father would have already brought down their family’spany long ago.

“Let’s see how long you people can staycent!” Helena sneered and left confidently.
Lauren turned to Hera and said, “Hera, your character is too much like your father’s—indecisive and
hesitant. You should spend more time in the finance department and see how I handle things!”
Hera wiped away her tears and nodded with pursed lips.
At the dining table, Nash had toasted drinks with Herman three times in a row.
Herman could not handle the alcohol and became dizzy after three sses, even his speech turning
slurry.
“Nashy, I apologize to you and your master for the matter of the engagement!”
“You’re being too harsh on yourself, Grandpa. Marriage isn’t something that can be forced, and
compared to Helena, I think Hera is more outstanding. I should thank you for choosing a good match
for me!” Nash said with a smile.
“Hahaha… To be able to sessfully turn my fault into praise, you’re truly worthy of being Master
Calcraft’s disciple. You’re indeed a talented student from a renowned teacher. Hera is fortunate to be
able to marry you!”
Hermanughed heartily, and his wrinkles softened a bit. “Come, fill my ss. I’ll toast my grandson-in-
law three more times!”
“Dad, you can’t drink anymore!” Harrison hurriedly came over and nimbly took away Herman’s ss.
Herman’s face darkened. “I’m feeling happy today. What’s wrong with having a few more drinks?”
Then, Nash looked at Herman and noticed his yellowish and lifelessplexion. His swollen eyes and
pale lips were signs of poor gastrointestinal health.
“Your health is more important. We can drink next time!” Nash smiled and continued, “If you trust me,
Grandpa, let me take your pulse!”
Harrison suddenly became more excited. “You also practice medicine?”
Herman red at Harrison. “Nashy is the disciple of Tili Mountain’s Master Calcraft. Why are you so
surprised by him having medical skills?”
Harrison’s mouth twitched.
His father often mentioned Master Calcraft.
Yet who exactly was this Master Calcraft?
If he was such a big shot, why was his disciple dressed so poorly?
“It’s just an old health problem of mine. I just need to take some medicine. There’s no need to worry,
Nashy!” Herman waved his hand, not intending to let Nash examine him.
Nheless, Nash saw a tinge of bitterness in Herman’s eyes.
Herman refused to let Nash examine him because he was worried about what Nash would find out.
Nash smiled and said, “Well, if you ever feel unwell, you must tell me, Grandpa!”
When he spoke, a fleeting glimmer passed through his eyes.
He had already fully seen the condition of Herman’s stomach.
It was a stomach tumor, and a malignant one at that.
Did the Lewises have no idea?
“Hahaha… Definitely… Definitely… Let’s eat quickly, or the food will get cold!” Herman merelyughed
it off.
Nash did not say much and started eating as well.
It had been three years since hisst mission, and he had not eaten meat in three years.
After three rounds of drinks, Hera’s family left the vi with Nash.
Herman saw them off outside and reminded them, “You two should get married and obtain your
marriage certificate as soon as possible!”
