Their conversation continued for a bit, but then Andrew needed to leave.


    Madisyn inquired, “Are you not staying for a while?”


    “I have a few things to handle, so I can’t stay.

    You should head to bed soon,” Andrew replied thoughtfully.


    “Okay.


    ”


    Then, Andrew left.


    What Madisyn didn’t notice was that the vi next door was lit up, and a group of people were observing them intently by the gate.


    Seeing Andrew walk away, Glenn let out a sigh of relief.


    “At least he knows his boundaries.


    ”


    ine remarked, “Just as I’ve always said, Andrew is a_ true gentleman.


    Where could you find another fine young man like him Howard added, “Having spent time with Andrew, I can vouch for his abilities and integrity.


    He’s indeed suitable for my sister.


    ”


    ine, pleased, said, “I have a discerning eye for men.


    ”


    Yet, ine had some worries.


    “But Howard, I’ve heard Corbett has be quite influential.


    Do you think you and Andrew stand a chance against him this time?”


    Howard considered this.


    “There’s definitely a chance.


    Don’t worry, Mom.


    ”


    Despite Howard’s reassurance, ine couldn’t shake her concerns.


    If Corbett were to be the head of the Klein family, Madisyn might find herself in a difficult position.


    Their conversation was interrupted as Glenn received a phone call.

    “Yes, I see.


    Understood.


    ”


    After he ended the call, ine inquired, “Who was that on the phone?”


    “Rowan.


    ”


    “Rowan?” ine expressed surprise.


    Nn Johns had two sons; Glenn was the elder, and Rowan, the younger.


    Glenn had always disyed a natural talent for business and had been designated early as the family head.


    Rowan Johns, while not involved in the family business, had excelled in the arts from a young age and had be one of the country’s most renowned artists.


    Many years ago, he had moved to Ansport with his family.


    He often critiqued Glenn and his pursuits, deeming their focus on wealth as superficial and considering money to be just an external possession.


    ine held a certain disdain for Rowan and his family.


    She believed they scorned wealth simply because theycked it.


    Would they maintain the same attitude if they were wealthy?


    Following the death of Glenn’s parents, the two branches of the family seldom interacted.
