Chapter 76
Ferqin Fashion The bustling airport terminal was filled with the sounds of chattering travelers and the occasional sound of suitcase wheels rolling on the floor.
Amongst the sea of people, Grandmother Hemsworth could be easily spotted with her elegant demeanor and silver hair that shimmered under the bright airport lights. Rachael and Emmanuel were standing next to her.
Grandmother Hemsworth stood tall at the arrival gate, eagerly waiting for Edward and Shawn to arrive.
As the crowd parted, Edward's face lit up with a wide smile as he spotted his Grandmother and Parents. With long strides, he made his way towards them
while Shawn trailed behind.
"Grandmother!" With a tone of mild i excitement, Edward exclaimed. He embraced her in a warm hug. "It's so good to see you." Edward hadn't seen his grandmother for days since he left Arty City. He kinda missed her but he knew life was better without them. Staying in the dormitory with his roommates was more fun than staying with his family.
Grandma Hemsworth gave a warm smile back, but beneath it was a hint of disappointment.
She could not resist thinking back to the admission test results. Although she was proud of him, she deeply wished he had beaten Jeff.
It was only she who knew what she had gone through in Arty City. Everyone in the elite circle made sure that they kept their eyes on Edward's life after her birthday event.
While Edward performed admirably, it would have been much better if he had defeated Jeff.
"Edward," she uttered, her tone simultaneously proud and worried.
"I'm glad to see you. How have you been?" "I'm fine, Grandmother" Edward replied and turned to his Parents. He noticed that something was going on with them. It was easy to tell due to his Mother's expression. "Mom, Dad." "Edward" Emmanuel smiled and ruffled his son's hair.
As they exchanged a few more pleasantries, Shawn also joined in. All content is © N0velDrama.Org.
"Where's Ella?" Grandmother Hemsworth asked Shawn.
"She's fine, Aunty" Shawn smiled.
"She's preparing for her Mother's birthday banquet." "Oh okay! That's good, that good." Grandmother Hemsworth arrived in Starry City only because to celebrate Ella's Mother's birthday. She knew that expanding their business was important, even though it was not really important for her or Edward's parents to be present.
Although the Hemsworth group was already well-established in Arty City, they would like to grow even further, and in order to do so, a connection is
required.
Grandmother Hemsworth and 4 Edward's parents are going to stay in Horring Hotel before the birthday banquet.
Jeff sat on the couch, his eyes glued to the screen in front of him, Smartie and Spooky huddled beside him.
Ever since they helped him, they've been more close than the other two.
Smartie was young and would love to always visit Jeff while Spooky had grown to always be with Smartie. He just loved following her around.
They were all playing video games with the other two.
n"gmartie! Just hide behind Spooky. His ability is quite deep than yours" Jeff let
out frustratingly. Smartie has always enjoyed taking independent action. She is not even willing to listen.
"No one tells me what to do!!" They were deep into a thrilling online adventure when Jeff's phone suddenly buzzed on the table, interrupting their gaming session.
Jeff quickly paused the game and picked up his phone, curious about the unexpected interruption. The caller ID flashed "Liam" on the screen.
""Hey, Liam, what's up?" Jeff greeted him, eager to catch up.
"Hey, Jeff! This picture of you trending online. Are you seriously going to become a model now?" Liam's voice was filled with curiosity and excitement.
Jeff chuckled, caught off guard by Liam's question. "I didn't realize it was trending. Honestly, I only did it because the usual model was unavailable. It was just a one-time thing, you know?" Liam's excitement was palpable through the phone. "You've got to tell me more about it. How was the experience? Jamie said it wasn't really long before you got into action." Jeff took a moment to reminisce about the photoshoot. "It was actually pretty fun. The director was really nice and made me feel comfortable. " "Oh, and what about Jamie? You went to meet her. How did she react." Jeff hesitated for a moment, recalling Jamie's words. "She only helped me to make Tonia leave me. There's nothing
romantic between us. We're just friends." "Oh. You guys sort it out yourselves" Liam laughed. "My Mom is in Starry City. She wants to meet you. I thinkiit's about that necklace thingy." "sure. Send me the address details, and I'll head over." Liam quickly texted Jeff the address, and they bid each other goodbye.
Grandmother Hemsworth and Rachael arrived at the luxurious Horring Hotel, the epitome of elegance and class.
The grand lobby was adorned with crystal chandeliers that illuminated the space with a soft, warm glow.
As they walked in, their heels clicking
against the polished marble floor, Grandmother Hemsworth glanced at Rachael. She had been noticing something different since she came back from Arty City.
"Is something going on between you and Emmanuel? Are you fighting?" Rachael flinched when she heard this but she shook her head. "No, Mother.
vou know how he is, he's just like that." They spotted a woman sitting in one of the plush armchairs, engrossed in her phone and leisurely sipping her drink. I It took Rachael a moment to recognize the familiar face before her... it was Mrs. Greenfield.
Rachael nudged Grandmother
Hemsworth, whispering, ""Mother, it's Mrs. Greenfield!" The elderly woman glanced in the direction Rachael pointed and smiled knowingly.
Approaching Mrs. Greenfield, Grandmother Hemsworth greeted her with a warm smile. "Mrs. Greenfield, how lovely to see you here. I hope you're enjoying your day." Mrs. Greenfield looked up, her perfectly manicured eyebrows rising in surprise. "Oh, Hi! So surprised to see you here!" Grandmother Hemsworth explained, "We had some business to attend to, and this seemed like the perfect place to stay. It's lovely to run into familiar faces like yours, Mrs. Greenfield."
Maybe it was because of what happened at Mrs. Greenfield's birthday, Grandmother Hemsworth didn't want to leave another bad impression.
Mrs. Greenfield nodded. "Indeed, itis a small world. Well, I won't keep you from your plans any longer. It was a pleasure seeing you both again. Enjoy your stay." After exchanging farewells, Rachael and Grandmother Hemsworth made their way to the elevator.
Just as they were about to step inside, Rachael's eyes widened with surprise.
Across the lobby, she caught a glimpse of a man approaching Mrs. Greenfield.
Her eyes widened in surprise. Isn't this the man she had been dying to meet for
the past few days in Arty City?! It was Adrian Ferqin, the CEO of Ferqin Fashion. il
