Although Skylar Hughes’s words were infuriating, the stepmother had to admit that Skylar was right.

The stepmother imdiately softened her expression, "Oh, Skylar, we’re all family. Your brother and sister will rely on you in the future..."

"Now get out, don’t disturb ."

The stepmother imdiately pulled out her indignant younger sister.

Skylar Hughes sat down and smiled.

Who would have thought that in such a desperate situation, she would gain Angus Langdon’s gratitude?

Although the Langdon Family is also well-off, having seen more outstanding n and more grandiose wealthy families, the Langdons barely serve as a backup for her.

Now she can even use the Langdon Family as her stepping stone.

The next day Angus Langdon asked Skylar Hughes out.

Skylar Hughes arrived at the place only to find it was actually a swimming pool.

Skylar Hughes wore a constipated expression; is Angus Langdon out of his mind, inviting her to et at a swimming pool?

What happened to the flowers and champagne?

And Angus Langdon ca out in swim trunks and asked Skylar Hughes, "Why are you dressed like this?"

Skylar Hughes, "...?"

Her outfit today seed fine, right?

Angus Langdon quickly added, "No worries, there are swimsuits at the pool. You can get one and change; let’s swim together."

Swim?

Angus Langdon scratched his head and chuckled like a simple-minded son of a rich man, "That day you saved both Mona Wright and by yourself, your swimming skills are really impressive. I wanted you to teach to swim; do you have ti?"

He never wanted to feel that suffocating sensation from being in the water again.

So Angus Langdon felt he must learn how to swim.

Skylar Hughes, "..."

She almost blurted out an expletive.

Is this how Angus Langdon is pursuing a girlfriend? This guy must be dood to be single forever.

Yet, facing Angus Langdon’s honest face, she could only swallow all her curses and show a troubled expression.

"Young Master Langdon, I’m afraid I can’t get in the water."

She’s clueless about swimming.

But she certainly couldn’t let Angus Langdon know, or else the events of that night would be revealed.

"I’m a bit unwell physically, you know?"

Angus Langdon didn’t get it at first and only realized after a while; he was a bit disappointed, "Then next ti. I’ll take you ho first."

Skylar Hughes nodded.

Angus Langdon changed his clothes and drove Skylar Hughes back.

Seeing the dark alley, Angus Langdon sincerely said, "Living here is too inconvenient, the car can’t get in. If you go ho at night, walking such a long way is dangerous for you as a girl."

Skylar Hughes replied helplessly, "I can’t help it; it’s already a blessing to have a place to live now."

Angus Langdon thought for a mont and said, "How about this, I have an apartnt in the city center, quite decent conditions; you can stay there for now."

Skylar Hughes’s face didn’t look so good, "Young Master Langdon! What do you an by this? Am I that kind of person?"

Angus Langdon imdiately explained, "Don’t misunderstand; I didn’t an anything else. You saved , and we’re friends now. I just want to help you."

Skylar Hughes bowed her head, thought for a mont, and realized she had gotten Angus Langdon’s sympathy by playing the jealousy card. No need to keep enduring the living conditions at the Hughes Family.

She couldn’t stand those vulgar, narrow-minded people for another mont.

"Young Master Langdon, thank you; I really need soone’s help now. You’re like a tily help to . Once I find a job, I’ll pay rent..."

Angus Langdon chuckled, "You don’t have to."

As Angus Langdon drove back and waited at the traffic light at the intersection, he unexpectedly saw Paige Sterling.

Paige Sterling was trying her hand at a claw machine at the supermarket entrance.

She was planning to research a related ga device recently, so she was experinting.

Angus Langdon snorted, quickly looked away, and drove off.

Paige Sterling realized she had no talent for the claw machine; she tried for ages without getting a single toy.

Her cold deanor while using the claw machine actually scared a few kids.

At that mont, a commotion arose behind her, and several girls nearby seed shocked.

"Wow! That guy is so tall and handso..."

"Looks like he’s looking at , looking at ..."

Paige Sterling had an inexplicable feeling that Julian Hawthorne had arrived.

So she turned her head and indeed saw Julian.

Julian rarely went to crowded places, but whenever he did, he always stood out.

He walked up to Paige Sterling, "You didn’t get a single one?"

Paige Sterling felt his tone was a bit annoying, "Like you’d do any better."

Julian stood behind Paige Sterling, grasped her hand, his breath tickling her ear.

"Watch if I can do it."

He guided Paige Sterling’s hand to control the machine, aiming for a pink rabbit plush.

Paige Sterling’s hand steered away, "Why grab that one?"

Julian said, "I like it; get it for , would you?"

Paige Sterling glanced at him, "You like it?"

Since when did Julian like these cutesy things?

But since Julian said so, Paige Sterling trusted him and cooperated to try and grab the pink bunny.

They tried for ages, wasted a lot of coins, but didn’t catch a single toy.

Paige Sterling stared at Julian with a teasing smile, "Isn’t Mr. Hawthorne supposed to be very capable?"

Julian felt a bit embarrassed; he had never played this before and thought it was easy, not knowing the claw machine had so many tricks.

He coughed and said to Paige Sterling, "Go buy sothing for at the supermarket."

Paige Sterling, "...?"

Julian, "Buy a bottle of water."

Paige Sterling didn’t think much of it and actually went into the supermarket to buy Julian so water.

Unexpectedly, when she ca out with the water, Julian had the pink bunny in his hand, "I caught it."

Paige Sterling was stunned, "How did you get it?"

Julian, "Just caught it like that, it’s not hard."

His tone inexplicably carried so boasting and pride.

Paige Sterling’s mouth twitched as Julian handed the bunny to her, "Here you go."

Paige Sterling, "...Wasn’t this the one you liked?"

Julian pursed his lips, "It was caught for you."

Paige Sterling didn’t want such an eye-catching bunny, "But I don’t like it, no thanks."

Julian, "You definitely like it."

Paige Sterling, "...?"

Julian, "It’s in your diary. You wrote that when you were a child, you loved these little things."

Paige Sterling, "...My diary?!"

Julian said, "The other day I went to the Sterling Family. Your dad was tidying up your things at ho, and I saw your diary."

Paige Sterling’s face turned green; her childish words from her youth, Julian had seen them all?

Her dad let Julian see them just like that?

"Mr. Hawthorne, you really say that so boldly after reading soone’s diary?"

Julian looked at her without blinking, "Your dad asked to read it, to better understand you."

Paige Sterling, "..."

Other families have sons who trick their fathers.

Her family was different; her dad always liked to trick her.

Paige Sterling grabbed Julian’s collar.

Julian cooperated by lowering his head.

Paige Sterling gritted her teeth and warned him, "Forget everything you read! Got it!"

Julian slightly curled his lips, quickly gave her a peck on the lips, "I can’t forget."

Paige Sterling glared at him; Julian hung the pink bunny on her shoulder, "Let’s go ho."

Paige Sterling continued to angrily threaten him.

Julian’s smile grew wider and wider.

Seeing his smile, Paige Sterling gradually lost her anger.

Who could resist when Mr. Hawthorne’s smile was so captivating?
