Chapter 94

Gary felt that Alissa was somewhat different from any other woman he had met. Although Alissa was

arrogant, she was not spoiled. Alissa was indifferent, but she was also elegant and generous. Moreimportantly, Gary was always attracted by the charm she showed silently. Unfortunately, Alissa had aboyfriend. Gary lowered his head slightly, his eyes filled with disappointment. It was a pity. Before Gary’slove for Alissa had’even sprouted, it was ruthlessly cut off by Alissa’s words “I have a boyfriend.” Garydidn’t want to give up, but he had to accept the fact no matter what. When Edwin saw that the water hadboiled, he carefully placed the vegetables into the pot. Edwin did it slowly. Eric was drinking tea whilelistening seriously to the conversation. Even though he was still a little boy, he was very calm and steady.Suddenly, Eric’s phone rang, and his phone was in Alissa’s bag. Alissa took out the phone and took alook. She suddenly said happily, “Well! It’s a call from Lucas.” Eric heard it. After explaining to Gary andEdwin politely, he took over the phone and left the private room to answer the call. “Lucas! I will go backto Kimshire with Alissa a little later.” Just as Frank reached the corner, he heard Eric’s happy voice.“Have you signed the contract today?” Lucas, who was on the other side of the line, asked in anemotionless tone. “Yes! The contract has been signed. I will finish it before school starts. Since I will goto school in Mayfield, I can work on weekends or after school. It is not easy for Alissa to support thefamily alone. I’m glad that I can share her burden.” “That’s good! Grandma is waiting for your news. I willtell her! Bye!” Lucas hung up the phone. Eric looked at the phone doubtfully. Why was Grandmaconcerned about his contract today? Without much thought, Eric went back to the private room. Then,Frank walked out of the corner. Frank looked sullen. He heard Eric say “I’m glad that I can share herburden.” Eric’s last sentence lingered in Frank’s ears like a spell. Frank suddenly panicked. Today, hehad to get Eric’s hair. Doing a DNA paternity test was the fastest way. When he reached the door, Frankcalmed down and pushed the door open. His tall figure was shockingly imposing. Frank walked slowlybut steadily. Just his back could fascinate everyone. As soon as Frank came in, Judith and Alissastopped talking. Alissa smiled without much enthusiasm, and she teased, “Mr. Taylor, you just come in

time. The dishes are just ready.” Frank glanced at the seat. There was a vacant seat beside Judith, andEric was sitting next to Alissa. Frank sat down beside Judith with a satisfied expression and then he saidindifferently, “Many thanks to Ms. Haywood and Eric for inviting me!” After Judith heard this, shesuddenly remembered what Eric had just said. She wondered if Frank met Eric yesterday. However,Judith did not ask after reflection.

Alissa looked at Frank and said with a smile, “Thanks for your compliments. Mr. Taylor, you are ourfunder. We can’t afford to offend you! Come on, raise your tea as a substitute for wine. Let’s have a toastand wish us pleasant cooperation.” No one would dislike Alissa’s openness and directness. Frank raisedhis teacup at her, saying with a smile, “I’m looking forward to a pleasant cooperation!” Few people drinkwine at noon as they had to go to work in the afternoon. Driving while intoxicated would bring on-the-spotfines. It would also do no good for one’s business, and that was the most vital thing. Therefore, with teaas a substitute for wine, everyone had no objections,
