Zachary, Nellie, and Rebecca all turned to look toward the roadside.
Beside a vintage car stood an elderly man leaning on a walking cane, dressed in a dark suit with intricate embroidery. His gemstone thumb ring was particularly striking. His thin face was wrinkled, and only a few black strands remained in his almost completely white hair. His gray-white eyebrows hovered over eyes that shone with authority, so commanding that no one dared meet his gaze.
Zachary, Nellie, and Rebecca felt their hearts skip a beat at the same time. They thought, ‘Why is the old man here?’
The person coming was Jaiden Lewis, the head of the four major families.
A young reporter at the scene was clueless and tactless, still trying to ask for more photos. A senior reporter immediately snapped at him, telling him to be quiet. The young reportér felt aggrieved but did not dare to say anything.
Zachary was the first to step forward and shake Jaiden’s hand, greeting him, “Mr. Lewis, what brings you here today? This Art Festival is truly honored by your presence!”
Nellie, following Zachary, bowed slightly and greeted Jaiden politely, “Hello, Mr. Lewis.”
Rebecca, realizing she was a step behind, quickly followed the other two with a broad smile and greeted, “Mr. Jaiden Lewis, I’ve wanted to visit you for a long time. Mr. Lionel Lewis told me that you were resting at the old manor, so I didn’t want to disturb you. I never expected to see you here today. How is your health?”
When Zachary noticed Rebecca’s eagerness to ask about Jaiden’s health, he scoffed inwardly, ‘She’s too young and impatient. Everyone knows about Jaiden’s health. In the past few years, he’s been in and out of the hospital seven or eight times for various illnesses. Can he really be healthy? Isn’t it just asking for trouble to ask that now? How could I not realize how clueless Rebecca was before? I’ve overestimated her!
With a walking cane in his hand, Jaiden fiddled with the thumb ring, his eyes filled with depth. He looked at Rebecca before saying, “This body of mine won’t have many years left. I thought I’d make the most of my good days by spending time with my unruly grandson.” Jaiden coughed several times as he spoke, and someone beside him quickly handed him a handkerchief.
‘Zachary got ahead of me again. She still
