Caron Spencer had just co back from a stroll outside, and as he sat down and hadn’t even had a chance to drink his tea, he saw an email printed by his secretary, placed in front of him.
"Is this an email from Sumr?" Caron Spencer picked it up and read through it. Seeing the na "Kenneth Osborne," sothing stirred in his heart, and his expression beca a bit peculiar.
After quite a while, he waved his hand to dismiss the secretary, and then took the email to find Brooke Osborne.
Brooke Osborne was in the kitchen preparing ingredients for the soup.
Seeing Caron Spencer co in, she quickly smiled and said, "Mr. Spencer, the soup isn’t ready yet."
Caron Spencer raised his hand, motioning for her to sit down. He sat next to her and asked kindly, "Is your younger brother nad Kenneth Osborne? Was he the one I saw that night?"
Caron Spencer rembered that when he first got together with Brooke Osborne, he had even hired a private detective to investigate her background.
Given his status, he couldn’t just bring any woman ho, even if she had saved his life.
Only after confirming that Brooke Osborne’s family background was clean did he feel at ease to let her stay.
It was during that ti that Kenneth Osborne’s na ca into his view.
However, he didn’t pay it much mind.
Now that he asked, Brooke Osborne nodded and curiously inquired, "Do you still rember him?"
"A young man so good-looking, it’s hard not to rember," Caron Spencer chuckled, "What’s he doing?"
"He’s a computer science student at tropolitan North University!" Brooke Osborne said proudly, "My brother is very smart; he’s always had excellent grades since he was young. He was the top scorer in our province when he got into tro North!"
"Yes, that’s indeed impressive." Caron Spencer squinted and said, "How’s your relationship with him?"
"Very good, extrely good." Brooke Osborne couldn’t praise Kenneth Osborne enough in front of Caron Spencer: "I’m seven years older than him; he practically grew up under my care."
"My parents were busy with work and often worked overti, so it was who took care of him after school."
"No matter where I went after school, I’d always take him with ; I also picked him up from daycare."
"I really adore him. He’s also very good to ." Brooke Osborne even brought up how Kenneth helped her repay tens of thousands in value-added tax, adding, "He’s just a student and it was hard for him to save up a bit of his personal money, yet he didn’t hesitate to use it to help repay my debt. — By the way, Mr. Spencer, I want to pay him back that money, is that okay?"
"Of course, of course, go ahead!" Caron Spencer laughed heartily, seeming in a very good mood, "He’s your brother, and my brother too, the uncle of our son. With such close ties, we shouldn’t grow distant."
"Relatives, after all, should keep in touch to stay close. You might as well reach out to your brother. When he’s on break, I’ll send a plane to the Capital City to bring him over to keep you company for a few days?"
"No need for that." Brooke Osborne quickly waved her hand and said hurriedly, "Plus, given my current situation, it’s not good for him to find out."
"Why? Do you feel embarrassed being with ?" Caron Spencer’s voice carried a hint of displeasure.
"... I don’t feel embarrassed." Brooke Osborne smiled wryly, "You’ve never seen at my most embarrassing. But my brother... he wouldn’t like seeing like this with you..."
Caron Spencer understood, smiled, and changed the subject, asking, "Is that so? What year is he in now?"
"He’s about to graduate and then he’ll be job hunting, which surely will keep him busy."
"Is he graduating this year?" Caron Spencer sipped his tea without showing any expression.
"Yes, and he’s amazing. In four years, he’s completing both his undergraduate and master’s degrees!" Brooke Osborne spoke with pride, gently touching her belly, "When my child is born, I want them to learn from their uncle. If they can be half as capable as their uncle, I’ll be incredibly thankful."
Caron Spencer chuckled, saying, "My child won’t be any less talented than your brother."
"That’s impossible." Brooke Osborne insisted, "Soone like my brother isn’t easily compared to others. I’m far behind my brother, so my son definitely won’t be better than my brother."
Caron Spencer’s mouth twitched and he said, "If I didn’t know what kind of person you were, I’d think you’re purposely undermining my son in front of ."
Brooke Osborne blushed instantly and said bashfully, "I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have said that in front of you."
"It’s alright, it’s alright. You’re the mother, I’m the father. Given our close relationship, you don’t need to hide anything from ; there’s no need." Caron Spencer held her hand and said emotionally, "Brooke, in my life, I’ve never t a woman as good as you. It’s just a pity I’m older now; if I were ten years younger... I would definitely spend every day with only you."
