Chapter 295Chapter 295
She had the right to turn it down.
She was almost done talking, so she made up an excuse to escape. When she left, she saw Nathaniel
and Matthew standing together, so she waved to them then turned and left.
Hesper couldn’t be sure she would be able to maintain her smile if she kept getting asked about her
marriage.
Everyone split after Hesper walked away and Arthur saw Nathaniel there. That was when Matthew and
Simon went over.
“Happy birthday, Uncle.”
Simon wasn’t interested in blending in with the crowd, so he only walked over with the present for
Arthur when that happened. It was a tea set, nothing too lavish. Arthur didn’t really like the tea set he
had before this, so this gift was just perfect.

asked, “Are you going to stay here for a while, or are you leaving soon?”
“I came back for your birthday,” Simon said. “You know that I don’t have much going on here, and I
have something to get to when I get back.”
“You’re just not doing proper work!” Arthur tapped his cane on the floor and cleared his throat. “If your
dad knew that this is how you’re living life, he would climb out of his grave to give you a knock on your
head.” Simon didn’t know what to do. “My psychologist clinic overseas is well known now. Even though. it’s
novelbinnowhere near as successful as Lane Holdings, I’m still doing quite well.”
“Say that again? What about…” Arthur paused, then sighed. “Go away, you’re hurting my eyes. I don’t
want to speak to you anymore.”
Matthew stood there with no expression, which made Arthur angrier. Before he could put his thoughts
into words, Matthew spoke. “Nathaniel is here. I’m sure you want to speak to him.”

to Grandpa.”
Simon smiled as Nathaniel accepted his fate and nodded. “Matthew, you… alright. I do have something
to talk to you about. I think Matt is at an age to get married.”
Simon started laughing. Arthur looked at the three men and frowned then waved his hand. “You three
just can’t be compared to Hesper. Go away, I don’t want to be angry.”
The three men nodded and left.
All the guests had arrived and the night slowly crept in.
Hesper was looking at the newest designs on her computer when Matthew knocked on her door. She
suddenly realized that it was late, so she closed her laptop and checked her makeup in the mirror.
Great, it was still on..
She opened the door and saw Matthew and Nathaniel standing in front of her door. “Grandpa didn’t talk
about marriage after I left, did he?” “No,” Nathaniel smirked. “Don’t worry, today isn’t the best time to bring this up. We’ll get another
chance. I’ll do what I promised.”
Hesper nodded and looked relieved. “Thanks.”
Matthew looked at them suspiciously. “What are you hiding from me?”
