After they had ordered their meal, Harrietta mentioned she needed to use the restroom. The restroom was located within the restaurant, so Lenora didn't give it much thought and simply let her go on her own.

Upon reaching the restroom stall, Harrietta helplessly opened her watch and dialed Zachary's number.

"Hey, Hattie, have you guys reached the restaurant?" Zachary's voice came through the receiver.

"Uh-huh," Harrietta replied glumly.

Zachary sensed something was amiss. "Hattie, what's wrong? Are you upset?"

"Uncle Zachary, Aunt Lenora mentioned that we are dining with Connor today."

Zachary's expression subtly shifted.

Lenora was gentle to everyone; only toward him was she so demanding.

Harrietta said with a sense of defeat, "Aunt Lenora clearly said yesterday that she didn't want to respond. Who knew she would actually fool me? She even said she likes Connor and that, if nothing unexpected happens, he'll be my uncle-in- law. Uncle Zachary, what should we do? Aunt Lenora is planning to run away!"

Zachary's face darkened completely. "Hattie, did Lenora really say that?"

Didn't Lenora have feelings for Jonas? How did she suddenly start liking Connor?

How long had she known Connor, and how many times had they met?

He didn't believe she was the type to change her affections so easily!

"Yeah, she did, Uncle Zachary. I didn't lie to you."

"Hattie, don't worry. I'll figure something out. I won't let your Aunt Lenora be taken away."

"I believe in you, Uncle Zachary! You must give it your all!"

Harrietta suddenly burst into a joyful grin, happily ending the phone call. When she returned to the private room, she unexpectedly found an additional man inside.

The man was seated across from Lenora, his handsome features radiating charm. He was laughing as he conversed with Lenora, his adorable little canine teeth visible. It was none other than Connor. Harrietta curled her lips.

How could this man ever compare to Uncle Zachary? He isn't as handsome or as tall. He's also skinny as a stickand certainly not as wealthy as Uncle Zachary. How did Aunt Lenora end up falling for such a man? The opening and closing of the door interrupted Connor's words.

He turned his head to look at the delicately beautiful little girl standing at the door and smiled gently. "Little miss, have you perhaps wandered into the wrong room?"

Harrietta shook her head, taking a seat next to Lenora. "I didn't walk into the wrong room."
