Coming out of the Or Mare Construction Group, Gary thanked Alexander and Amber profusely.
With Sebastian’s 12–million–dollar compensation, the Sunset Red Welfare Home would no longer need
to be relocated. The lonely old people there would not need to worry about their survival, too.
Gary was so thankful that his eyes reddened.
“We should head back as well.” Alexander and Amber dropped Gary off at the welfare home before
heading home to Belmont Hills.
Patrick and Susanne had picked up Donovan and brought him home. They had just put him to bed.
Patrick and Susanne were in the living room, feeling unspeakably upset.
Donovan was still healthy a few months ago, yet at this moment, he was paralyzed in bed. He could not
even form a sentence.
“Dad, Mom, is Grandpa asleep?” Amber entered with Alexander. She looked at the wheelchair placed
by the side and bit her lip gently. She said softly, “We’ll take good care of Grandpa. He’ll recuperate for
sure.”
Patrick wanted to respond, but he hesitated. Then, he sighed.
His father was in this state because of that bastard, Neil. It was too bad no one knew where he and
Jerome were hiding. Harry, too. There had not been any news from him ever since he returned to

Province Town. He only hoped that Harry learned his lesson and not come to Ol ‘Mare to cause any
further trouble.
“Neil and Harry are my brothers.” Patrick was silent for a while before looking at Alexander pleadingly.
“Alex, as long as they don’t cause any trouble, please ignore them. After all, blood is thicker than water.
I…”
Alexander nodded with a smile. “Don’t worry, Dad. I understand.”
“Sigh…” Patrick inhaled deeply, looking extremely grateful.
He witnessed how powerful his son–in–law was. If Neil and Harry still did cause trouble, by then, even
if he begged for mercy, it might be pointless already.
“Dad, Mom. The atmosphere was a little down in the living room. Amber forced a smile. “There is still
work to do at the office. Alex and I will head over there first. We’ll have dinner together tonight.”
Then, Amber pulled Alexander along and shut the door behind her.
“Amber.” Alexander was driving with one hand on the steering wheel. He gently tapped on the phone
on his screen. He played some soothing music.
He said gently, “Grandpa Donovan is bedridden. Mom and Dad are upset. If you want, I could get
William Abbott over once more and treat him…..”
Before he could finish his sentence, Amber’s phone in her pocket vibrated. A call came in.
“Coral?” Amber was a little delighted when she saw who the caller was. Her heavy heart was lightened
a little.
Coral was her Uncle Kolten’s daughter. Coral was younger than Amber by six years. When the Braine
family was kicked out of the family by the Chesire family, Coral was only in high school. Amber secretly
helped her with her own living expenses. They were extremely close.
The last time, during their grandmother’s 80th birthday, Coral was still in college and could not find the
time to return, Amber missed her quite a bit.
When she received Coral’s call, she immediately answered it with delight. “Coral, did you miss me? Do
you need some money? I can wire it to you now!”
Kolten’s family was not doing well. Coral was in college, so their living expenses were quite high. Since
New Chesire Group was growing quickly, Amber had quite a lot of cash with her. Of course, she had to
help her cousin whenever she could.
“Amber, I’m already a senior. I’m about to start my internship. I can earn my own money!” Coral giggled
in delight. She sounded hopeful.”

I’ll be interning at Cloud Atlas Group in Woolpackton! My flight is a six–thirty this evening! I’ll wait for
you to pick me up! See you there!”

Amber was a little stunned. She looked at her phone worriedly. Woolpackton was quite a distance from
Ol‘ Mare; it was about a two–hour
drive.
Life One had just been released in the market, so there was much work to be done. She could not take
the time out to pick Coral up.. “Coral.” Amber thought for a while before turning to look at Alexander.
She cheekily stuck her tongue out at him before saying to the phone, “I’m quite busy. I can’t pick you
up. I’ll get Alex to pick you up. You can get to know him better too. He’ll be there!”
Then, before Coral could say anything, Amber hung up.
“Hello? Amber? Amber!” Coral yelled a few times. She puffed her cheeks in anger.
She was not done talking!
Other than her, she also had a few college mates and her boyfriend with her.
Although Coral never met Alexander before, she has heard of him through the other family members.
He was a good–for–nothing retired
veteran.
Getting Alexander to pick her up would just be embarrassing!
