Chapter 1747 So Be It

Given the sudden turn of events at Solomon’s end, everyone at Oceanic Estate prepared to travel to Avenport once they had completed the celebrations on the first day of the new year.

As for the Coopers, they had initially planned to visit Oceanic estate on the second day. But after learning of the news, they visited that very afternoon instead.

“Happy New Year, Old Mr. Jadeson.”

Entering with gifts in his hands, Edmund was as high-spirited as usual. When he saw Jonathan, Devin, and the others, he burst into laughter as he greeted all of them.

After patting him on the shoulder, Devin led him to have coffee with Jonathan.

While the men went off for guys’ talk, the women were left behind.

Other than Tillie, Riley had also joined them on the visit.

“Riley, have you recovered? I heard that you were sick the last time you came back. How are you feeling now?” Sasha inquired with concern the moment she saw her.

After all, Riley was a big help when both her two children were in Yorksland and Elysium.

 

Riley shook her head. “I’m fine now. In fact, I recovered a long time ago. By the way, where’s Kurt? How is he? Has he recovered too?”
