Chapter 20
As soon as Audrey and Brian returned to the hotel, Simon called Audrey.
“How did it go? Dylan didn’t give you a hard time, did he?” Simon asked.
“You knew he would give me a hard time. Impressive!” Audrey said in an indifferent
voice.
Hearing the displeasure in Audrey’s voice, Simon couldn’t help but touch his nose. embarrassingly and clear his throat, saying, “just wanted to see the legendary cold- hearted, emotionless man going mad for love. Tsk. Tsk. Indeed, no matter how godlike, once touched by love, even the mighty needs to take a humble posture.”
“Alright, that’s not interesting.” Audrey said flatly, then hung up the phone.
She wasn’t sure if the original host’s feelings for Dylan still lingered in this body. After hanging up, Audrey felt inexplicably irritable and annoyed.
This uncontrollable feeling upset her, and she was quite resistant to it.
Fortunately, in the following days, Audrey was busy dealing with the house and had no time to think about anything else.
William and Rebecca had lived in the house for too many years, with many traces of their life inside. Audrey drew up a new design plan, intending to find someone to renovate it.
After reclaiming the house, Audrey’s next target was the Hernandez Group.
That was Damarion Holland’s life’s work, which William had taken after the original host’s mother died. Audrey naturally had to reclaim the Hernandez Group to retrieve everything that rightfully belonged to the original host.
Once the house matters were nearly settled, Audrey received a call from Aaron, inviting her and Brian to dinner at the Longman family.
Knowing Aaron wanted to consult her on some medical issues, Audrey agreed.
In the Longman family, Shawn rarely visited Aaron, but Aaron simply ignored and dismissed him.
Aaron said, “Over here, this window needs another wipe, and it would be best to place a potted plant here. And where’s my coffee set? Bring it out, and fetch my special edition

Aaron was excitedly directing the servants to tidy up the house, knowing his teacher would be coming for dinner the next day.
Seeing the busy scene left Shawn a bit puzzled.
Shawn thought, ‘What’s going on? Do they have some noble guests coming tomorrow?”
“Right, prepare more snacks and fruits too. Kids love to eat them,” Aaron said.
Shawn sneered inwardly, “Thinking even of snacks and fruits that kids like? This noble guest coming to the house must be bringing children along.”
After Aaron was almost done with the preparations, he finally noticed Shawn sitting on the sofa.
“What are you doing here?” Aaron asked.
Shawn was speechless. He had been sitting there for a long time, and his grandfather only now noticed him now.
“Who’s coming over tomorrow?” Shawn asked.
“None of your business. Get out of here. You’re an eyesore. Go deal with your own messy affairs,” Aaron said.
The Longman family had been in medicine for generations, yet Shawn, unlike his family, didn’t like medicine.
Not liking medicine was one thing, but Shawn went into the entertainment industry, even starting an entertainment company, which infuriated Aaron..
After Aaron went off to handle more preparations, Shawn found a housemaid to ask, “Who’s coming over tomorrow?”
The maid thought for a moment and said, “I heard it’s his teacher coming. That’s all we
know.”
Shawn thought, ‘Grandpa’s teacher is Audrey. So is she coming?”
No wonder Aaron was having everything cleaned up and even preparing snacks and fruits for children. It was because Audrey and Brian were coming for dinner.
Thinking of this, Shawn imhediately stepped out and made a call.

Shawn asked, “Dylan, do you want to come to my house for dinner tomorrow?”
“No,” Dylan coldly refused.
“No, I mean the old resident, Aaron’s place.”
On the other end, Dylan frowned and then asked, “She’s visiting Aaron tomorrow?”
Seeing Dylan guess it right away, Shawn felt disappointed. He had wanted to surprise Dylan by having him over to the old house tomorrow.
“Yes, I went back and wanted to see Aaron, but he was busy preparing for Audrey’s visit. like he was some noble guest. He didn’t even care about me,” Shawn said.
Knowing Audrey would be at the Longman family, Dylan agreed to come and said, “I’ll be there.
Early the next morning, Dylan arrived at the Longman family.
Aaron thought it was Audrey and Brian, only realizing it wasn’t when the butler brought Dylan in.
But Aaron wasn’t a fool.
He had already suspected something was up when Shawn insisted on staying at the Longman family last night.
And now, early in the morning, Dylan showed up. Aaron quickly guessed the reason.
But since a smiling visitor should not be turned away, Aaron couldn’t just kick him out.
Over the years, Aaron had been treating Dylan’s illness, and he knew it might be related to some events seven years ago.
But Aaron wouldn’t ask about it. In fact, he had invited his teacher today to discuss some cases, one of which was Dylan’s..
“Aaron, sorry to bother you,” Dylan said.
Dylan knew Aaron would understand why he came, so he didn’t explain and simply handed over the prepared gift.
“No bother at all. It’s rare fogyoung people like you to think of me,” Aaron said.
Aaron asked the butler to make coffee for Dylan.

Hearing Dylan had arrived, Shawn came down from upstairs.
“Why are you here so carly?” Shawn asked.

Although he knew Dylan was coming, Shawn hadn’t expected him to show up so early.
“Nothing else to do, so I came carly to chat with Aaron,” Dylan said.
Shawn glanced at Dylan. It was obvious he wanted to see Audrey carly, but he claimed. he wanted to chat with Aaron. Such a blatant lic.
“How have you been? Finished your medication?” Aaron asked as he looked at Dylan, noticing his complexion was still not good.
“Yes, but still no improvement,” Dylan replied indifferently, seemingly unconcerned about his own health.
“My teacher is coming today. I’ll ask her about your condition to see if we can find a cure,” Aaron said,
Thank you, Aaron.” Dylan nodded and thanked him..
At 10:30 a.m., Audrey and Brian finally arrived at the Longman family.
When the butler led Audrey and Brian inside, they immediately saw Dylan sitting in the living room, chatting and having coffee with Aaron. Audrey frowned, and her eyes showed a hint of coldness.
