Chapter 71: Chapter 62: Life Needs Money (3rd update) Chapter 71: Chapter 62: Life Needs Money (3rd update) Stephens Family, Building 11.
Joe Stephens, who had been away for many days, returned.
Quickly returning from the Sheffield City company, Gideon Stephens entered beaming, “Dad, why are you back now?
Didn’t you say you were going to wait a while before returning?”
In their generation, Joe Stephens was the fourth oldest in the Stephens family, and he was Oxily Stephens’S cousin, ranked fourth.
Joe Stephens gave his son a glance, “Why, you don’t want to co back?”
“Look at what you’re saying, how could I not want you to co back?
It’s just that it’s a month earlier than we expected, and I was wondering if sothing went wrong.”
“I received news from your sixth uncle while abroad, so I returned specifically.”
“Is it about the Divinity Temple?”
Joe Stephens nodded, “Rowan has also given a lot of information, but your sixth uncle still wants to keep other people out, and doesn’t tell much.”
Gideon Stephens’ expression shifted slightly, “Dad, did you gain anything on this trip?”
“Family conflicts are fierce, and no leader to lead the various noble families has been chosen, so this standoff will continue.
Ancient martial artists are becoming fewer, and finding the rumored Divinity Temple is a must.
As soon as news about Thompson County is revealed, it will inevitably cause a huge uproar.”
It seed that Gideon Stephens understood, “So, Dad, you ca back early to make a trip to Thompson County?”
Instead of answering the question, Joe Stephens asked, “How is Rowan doing with learning from Adam Stephens?”
Gideon Stephens frowned as he ntioned Adam Stephens, “Adam seems to be teaching Rowan everything on the surface, and your sixth uncle even personally leads Rowan to participate in important family etings.
But I always feel that your sixth uncle and Adam do not truly accept Rowan.
After all, they are not biological, it’s inevitable to guard against.”
Joe Stephens humd, “Your sixth aunt will be back soon, so ask your wife to interact with her more.
Conversations between won are usually easier.”
“I’ll talk to her.”
“Have you been paying attention to the Fisher Family situation recently?”
Gideon Stephens was taken aback and shook his head.
Recently he had only paid attention to the Glamoriz Company in Thompson County, he did not care about the Fisher Family’s situation.
Joe Stephens sighed displeased, “You don’t need to compare yourself with Adam Stephens, he is now a waste man.
He has lost the ability to inherit the Stephens Family’s bloodline.
The Stephens family has long been unrelated to him, and everything about the Stephens family will be Rowan’s in the future.”
So, the focus should be on Rowan.
Back then, they had spent a lot of effort trying to strive for the title of stepson.
Gideon Stephens dropped his gaze.
He did not dare to say that the woman in Thompson County had been taken by Adam Stephens.
For him, it was a disgrace.
After a mont of silence, Joe Stephens’s voice grew a little heavier, “From what Rowan suggested, so other family mbers intend to bring back the granddaughter who was sent away.
After all, she is their flesh and blood, and her bad brain is still their own biological granddaughter.”
Gideon Stephens frowned, “Are they really going to let her co back?”
Joe Stephens seed not to care at all: “There’s nothing wrong with her coming back, it’s better to have her under our eyes than to leave her outside where we know nothing.”
Gideon Stephens wanted to say, wouldn’t it be cleaner to eliminate her directly?
Wouldn’t bringing her back be an eyesore?
Joe Stephens said unhurriedly, “With the intense struggle among family descendants and her dim-wittedness, without Adam’s protection, she wouldn’t be able to survive in the family.
It would be a mistake for the mother and daughter to co back, and Adam’s transgressions would multiply.”
One sentence reminded Gideon Stephens.
He smirked, “Dad is right, these two years that the mother and daughter were away, it did allow Adam to secure his position in the headquarters.”

Everyone seems a bit annoyed during Friday class.
Despite the collective attack on Chloe Stephens by the entire Grade 9 during the second mock exam, they returned without any results.
Students at the school are well aware of Marcella Thomas and Xavier Foster being reported.
Nobody dares to ss with Chloe Stephens now.
Who would provoke soone who even reported her own cousin?
That person has no emotions at all.
At this crucial mont before the middle school exam, they don’t want to ruin their prospects.
Because of this, the Grade 9 classes are particularly annoying.
The dicine ordered by the person on the frontier can be refined tomorrow.
With her cheek resting on one side, Chloe Stephens is thinking about making money.
If she wants to live a good life, she needs the support of money.
No matter what era it is, this truth remains unchanged.
Like those cultural relics and gold buried underground a thousand years ago, she couldn’t possibly dig them out in the open.
A hundred years ago, she wouldn’t have thought the world would change so quickly, and she wouldn’t have known if the money and checks from a hundred years ago were still usable?
If she takes out such things, she would have to turn them in to the nation first.
So, she still needs to earn money from scratch.
After the evening self-study period.
Chloe Stephens, who walked out of the school, was stopped by Mason Sullivan following behind her: “Chloe.”
She stopped.
“Chloe, I believe you.”
Knowing what he ant, Chloe nodded.
Since that day, Mason hadn’t accompanied Oliver Gordon to and from school.
His friend needed a wake-up call.
Recently, too many things had changed.
Seeing that Chloe didn’t care, Mason felt a little awkward and scratched his hair.

Under the night light.
Chloe was about to take out the money to buy so fried chicken.
A hand stretched out and handed the money.
Albert Webb lowered his head and smiled at her, feeling like sunshine was shining upon her.
“I saw you from afar, and I wondered who it was.”
“Thank you.”
Chloe accepted his help paying for the chicken graciously.
“At this late hour, you ca out shopping instead of going straight ho!”
“This place has a good taste.”
“Albert.”
Evelyn Weston accompanied her son out, and just a few steps away, she saw her son running towards a girl.
The girl turned around, and Evelyn frowned.
It was the girl who had knocked her bag off at rcy Hospital that day.
“He’s here,” said Albert with a wave of his hand.
“I’ll go ho after the fried chicken, it’s not safe outside at night.
I’ll leave first.”
Chloe took the fried chicken and turned in the other direction.
Evelyn looked back and asked, “Albert, is she your classmate?”
“No, she’s from Thompson County Middle School!”
Evelyn frowned: “Albert, you didn’t co to Thompson County to make friends with girls.”
Albert blushed, “Mother, what are you talking about, she’s not my girlfriend.”
He’s still pursuing her.
It’s just unclear if she knows about his pursuit plan.
Her son’s reaction explains it all.
Evelyn sternly said, “Albert, that girl is indeed beautiful, but you can’t judge people properly at your age.
When you grow up, you’ll understand what kind of girl suits you best.
You are well aware of the Webb Family’s situation, and I’m not saying we should look for a match based on social status…”
Upon hearing this, Albert understood.
That ant they actually wanted to look for a match based on social status.
Evelyn hoped that her son’s friends would have an equal status, as it would be most beneficial for him.
Albert resented this idea.
It’s precisely because of this that he ca to Thompson County.
“Mother, if you keep saying that, I’ll go abroad.”
“Fine, I won’t interfere with your friendships, but it’s too early for a girlfriend.
Wait until after university to talk about it.”
Albert walked away, his good mood ruined.

Foster Family.
Debt collectors threw glass at the gate late at night, scaring several people from the Foster Family.
It was only then that David Foster found out that Wilbert Foster and Yvonne Sullivan had made investnts outside and owed a large sum of debt.
The person who had run away with the money was not found, and now the debt collectors had co.
According to the latest information, the Old Madam also got sick because of the debt collectors’ disturbance.
David really wanted to grab his elder brother’s ear and ask how his brain had regressed.
Given the current environnt, how could anyone trust a stranger and invest their entire family’s savings?
Even with one’s own siblings, caution is needed, let alone with outsiders.
