After packing up the oranges. Tinley had someone deliver them to the Adler family across the street.

The Adler family was also having a meal, but there were only a few people at home, just Richard and Charles.

When several baskets of oranges arrived, Richard was especially excited.

He immediately abandoned his meal, tossed his fork aside, and eagerly walked over.

With so many birds guarding these oranges, I do not even need to taste them to know they must be delicious, Richard thought

The first thing Richard did was not peel one to try, but rather think about how to divide them.

“Charles, how should we split all these oranges?” Richard deliberately ignored the fact that Yvonne and Tinley had already sorted them into five baskets and asked on purpose.

Charles followed closely behind, staring at the oranges before answering honestly, “Yvonne already divided them, one basket per person.”

Richard clicked his tongue in annoyance. ‘Charles is not playing along. I do not want to talk to him anymore. That is not the answer I was hoping for, he thought.

Being a seasoned schemer, Richard had already started planning in his mind.

Kelvin was not home. He had just started his new job and was busy with the transition. It would take several days before he could return.

Since Richard was already assigned one basket, he simply took another. Now, he had two..

Vic was at school and would not be back either.

‘As the eldest in the family. I will take care of Vic’s share as well. With that thought, Richard pulled another basket toward

himself.

Richard glanced at the three baskets now sitting in front of him, visibly growing more pleased.

Just as he reached out for another, thinking of Jeremy, who was also away at school, his hand suddenly stopped midway.

Richard’s cheerful expression shifted into contemplation. I cannot take Jeremy’s. That boy is loud, wild, and a complete menace. If he finds out, he will cling to me and make a huge fuss about it, she wondered.

As for Charles‘, that will not work either. He is standing right next to me, watching. I cannot take his in front of him.
