Chapter 145
Ahleigh Wesly didn’t wan heavy that it was terrifying.
“Alright,” We
get on the bas, she was more reluctant to be left alone. It was dark by the shore, and the wind and rain were SO
“Wendy muttered reluctantly as she got into the car with Shane.
As Wensly saw the villa getting closer, she was increasingly looking forward to seeing Owen. However, at the fork in the road, the shuttle bus suddenly turned a corner and drove in another direction, away from the villa.
“Where are we going? Are we going to the villa Wendy asked.
The driver teplied, “Sie has reserved the small detached building next to it for you.”
“What?” Wendy asked in shock and disappointment.
Wendy slid not mind living in the smaller detached house, but that meant she could not see Owen
Wendy siggestrid, “There’s no need for special treatment, we won’t stay in the detached house.”
The driver glanced at the rearview mirror and rolled his eyes at Wendy. “Miss, this decision is not up to me.” Wendy leas speechless, She could not believe that her plan to see Owen had failed before it even began. However, Wendy was not going to give up this opportunity so easily. She was going to find a way to see Owen
After ensuring that Wendy, Shane, and their servants had settled down, the villa’s servants took the shuttle bus back to the villa
Owen was waiting for them in the living room.
“Sir, everything is settled” The serva
servants reported.
Den nodded and instructed in a deep voice. Try to attend to their needs and meet any of their requests as much as possible.”
“Okay, understood. The servants responded.
“Do they have any requests” Owen asked.
The servant thought for a moment. “Not really, but Mis Hall really wants to see you. She seemed very disappointed when she learned that she was staying in a small detached house”
“Disappointed“” Owen lowered his gate.
He had never met Wendy and Shane, the illegitimate siblings who had returned from Whartonburg, and could not guess their purpose for wanting to see him.
Naturally, Owen had no interest in them. Everyone knows that illegitimate children are trouble. If he interacted with them more, he might get into trouble. Owen had no interest in meddling in affairs that would take up his time needlessly.
Owen instructed the servant indifferently. “That’s all, you’re dismissed”
“Yes sir.” The servant responded.
The wind and rain gradually intensified.
Every day, someone would go to the detached house to deliver meals to Wendy and Shane
Wendy had been looking for a chance to go to the manor, but unfortunately, the storm outside showed no sign of dying down, so she could only stay trapped in her room.
At noon, the people from the sort villa would drive a shuttle bus down to deliver their meals, Wendy would watch their retreating figures from her window as they packed the dirty dishes and left
Shane had noticed Wendy’s unusual behavior in recent days. Perhaps siblings did have a way of understanding each other
He put down his fork and asked, “Wendy, what are you thinking about?”

Chapter 145
Wendy turned her head and said with disappointment, “Shane, I want to go to the villa and meet Owen.”
Wendy continued, “Owen is the heir of the Davis family. He can help us. Befriending him would be beneficial, I don’t want to miss such a great opportunity”
Shane calmly analyzed. He likely won’t pay attention to us given that he is also on good terms with Adam.”
However, Wendy seemed to be very confident. She walked up to Shane and said, 111 just have to make Owen like me then
They came back from Whartonburg together and knew exactly what they were each pursuing. Thus, there was no need for Wendy to hide her ansitions in front of Shane.
“You’ll need support if you want to be the head of the Hall family in the future. I’ll choose a husband that would benefit us in this aspect,” Wendy
contined.
It was a common understanding between the two, that Shane’s future wife must also be a woman who would be beneficial to them both,
Both of them valued power. In front of potential power, love was simply not as important.
Shane lowered his gaze as he understood what Wendy meant.
He knew that although Wendy had taken a fancy to Owen, she liked his background even more.
Shane said in a deep voice. This is indeed an opportunity.”
Wendy grained, “But I don’t know how to go to the villa..”
“It’s not difficult. All you have to do is to make something for him as thanks. However, this opportunity can only be used once. Whether or not you’ll be able to make him remember you will depend on your ability, Shane suggested.
Wendy’s eyes lit up “This is a great ideat bake a cake.”
The refrigerator is fully stocked, and the kitchen is sufficiently equipped.
Wendy gathered a few servants to help her, and they got busy in the kitchen as they baked a chiffon cake. Coincidentally, there was a space shuttle bus in the garage that Werly could use in drive up to the resort villa
Back at the resort villa, Eliana regained her former touch after a few days of practice. She had mastered a rhythm a smoothly.
In just a few days, the team climbed the rankings and Eliana seemed to be at the top of her game
However, she’ll have to wait until next month’s leaderboard update if she wants to return to her former ranking.
Cameron had also become more and more skilled and was versatile enough to fill any position.
Thus, he wanted to switch positions with Thomas again.
However, Thomas crossed his arms over his chest and rejected, “No way, Cameron
“You lost tajne last time. Why do you want to switch positions againt No way!” Thomas exclaimed.
and was able to operate it
Cameron looked at Thomas with indifference. “I want to do another round of solo games with you. May the best man win?
Thomas couldn’t stand Cameron’s gaze, so he turned to Ellans for help. Eliana, Cameron is going back on his word, he wants to switch positions with me again.
Elians was holding a tablet as she watched a replay of their game yesterday
She uid caually. “Cameron, you do well as a support because you’re bold yet careful. If you let my brother play support, the team will suffer. I trust you, but not him. You should play support.”
“Okay” Cameron agreed readily and sat back on the sofa.
He ignored Thomas and did not mention anything about switching positions again.
Thomas was stunned. “What? That’s it? That’s. Ellana, what do you mean you trust him and not me?”
Eliana glanced at him and said with a smile, “I’m praising}
kyou.”

Adam stepped forward and patted Thomas’s head. “Silly, don’t you understand? She’s saying that Cameron is better at playing support than you”
Thomas was now unhappy. “Cameron, I want to play another round of solo games with you. I’m good at playing support too
Cameron gave Thomas a side–eye as he said, “Get lost
Thomas stood up from the sofa and pouted, “You guys are so mean? Then, he left the gaming ren
Eliana was concerned. “Is be okay!”
“He’ll be fine.” Landon said leisurely and paused before he continued, “Knowing him, he’ll be back in thirty seconds, tops”
Landon was right as Thomas returned with some drinks in less than a minute, still cheerful.
They have been good friends for many years and would not hold a grudge over trivial matters like these,
Eliana corrected herself, “Thomas, what I meant was that you’re a brilliant shooter. We make a good team! Give me live!”
