Chapter 629

She spent her days either collecting rent with her husband or at home, diving into the latest skincare trends and fashion. How could she not be young, beautiful, and stylish? Mamie hit the nail on the head with her compliment, making her day.

"Come on, mom and dad, let me introduce you to a friend from school, a comrade-in-arms from the trenches!"

From the moment Duke showed up, Roseanne had been sizing him up.

This guy was their lab's biggest benefactor.

Saying he paid for half the bricks and mortar here wouldn't be an exaggeration.

Roseanne: "Hello, sir and ma'am."

Scales: "Hello, sir, and you look so young, ma'am..."

His comment... Roseanne couldn't help but give him a side glance.

"Hey! Nice to meet you all!" Duke immediately greeted them warmly, shaking their hands, "Roseanne! Caley! Haha... I've heard so much about you guys from my dear daughter, and finally, I get to meet you in person! I don't have much, but here's a little something for our first meeting."

With that, he pulled out two red envelopes from his coat.

They were quite thick.

He handed one to each.

Before Roseanne and Scales could refuse, Duke generously insisted: "Don't be shy, accept it. It's a gift, take it, take it!"

They exchanged glances.

"Thank you, sir."
