The next day, Jared carefully held the breakfast and stood at the door of Skyland. “This is a breakfast worth 1 million dollars. He nervously adjusted his suit, then fixed his hair, and then pressed the doorbell with anticipation.

Andrew came downstairs with his hair all messed up. ‘Who came so early this morning?‘ He, his sister, and Charles had all played cards by midnight, and Yve came back late at night. They had eaten a late–night snack before sleeping.

After opening the door, Jared put on his signature smile. “Hello, Y…” Midway through, seeing it was Andrew, his smile disappeared immediately, his tone turned gloomy, and he looked inside. “Ah, it’s you. Where are Jeremiah and Yvette?”

Jared nodded at Andrew. “Not just disappointed, very disappointed.”

Charles calmly picked up a piece of bread, ignoring the outside world, focused solely on his breakfast, because from his observation, Jared was likely as unintelligent as Andrew.

Yvette and Jeremiah came down from upstairs, and as soon as they appeared, Jared immediately stood up from his chair, crossing his hands together, a very standard welcoming gesture.
