Her Precious Baby

Chapter 278

Chapter 278

Angeline seemed confused.

Judging from the old man's words, she figured he had quite a good knowledge of Joel.

“It shouldn't be a problem letting you know."’ The old man tightened liis grip on liis crutches, and his eyes gradually darkened as he began speaking. “That young lad has no parents and only has liis sister to depend on since he was a child. Even though life was tough for them, they eventually became quite capable. His sister became a nurse in the county, while he became a famous designer.”

“And then?” Angeline's curiosity was piqued.

“Unfortunately, liis sister suddenly died because of an accident just last year. That left him so devastated that he returned to Linlow Island.”

That undoubtedly left Angeline at a loss for words.

The old man heaved a deep sigh. “Ever since then, he became extremely eccentric. He never interacts with liis neighbors and only locks himself home to work on his design drawing. There were businessmen like you who visited him to ask for collaborations previously, but he chased all of them out.”

“Oh, I see.” A frown formed on Angeline's face, and her tone had a tinge of concern. "Does he not have any friends?”

“No one is willing to befriend him. You'll know once you visit him. He's a fine young man with a bright future but, sadly, very unmotivated and shows no desire for success. He's no different from a beggar.”

Angeline wore a thoughtful expression upon listening to those words. Deep down, she was incredibly shocked.

I can't believe Nancy has such a weird senior. I wonder how capable he really is. Nancy has flattered him so much and made him sound so impressive. Was she only trying to reassure me?

Despite her doubts, she thought she should still go and take a look since she had traveled all the way there.

Sensing Angeline's persistence, the old man lifted his finger and pointed to a mountain path not too far away.

“Joel stays on the other side of that mountain. You have to climb over to get there. I see that you have a suitcase with you, Miss. The route is a steep and treacherous one. It's not going to be easy for you...”

“I'm all right. Thank you for your help. Sir.”
