Chapter 109 He’s in a Good Mood
“Yes, I know.” “I’m quite fond of Jessica as she’s smart, thoughtful and considerate toward you. You
should flatter her a little more. Trust me, girls love it when you do that.”
“I understand, Aunt Lara.”

“Is your dad asleep? Pass the phone to him.” “Okay.” Ben quickly handed the phone over to Evan, as if he was trying to drop a hot potato that burnt his fingers into someone else’s hands. Aunt Lara had always been a greedy and ambitious woman-the Roberts were only able to achieve their current status because of her efforts. Although his father was the one who temporarily managed the Roberts Company, the largest shareholder was still Aunt Lara-she was a good leader to her workers while being both kind and strict to the entire family. However, she was never satisfied by what she had-even after Edward had obediently bowed to her. She always looked for more, especially a higher status in society. If she ever learned of how Ben had ruined her plan, he couldn’t imagine how much she’d lecture him. More importantly, he had no idea on how he would be able to continue living his rich and luxurious life.
Edward had stepped out of the bathroom with a sour expression just as Lara ended her phone call. “What is it?” she asked, walking toward the man and reaching out to cling onto his neck. Her body was soft and flexible as it curled up against his body like a snake.
He leaned over and kissed her on the lips before he said, “I just received a call from Maria, who told me that Silas brought the little brat over again today.” “Camila’s son?”
“Yeah, I wonder what the old man is thinking, becoming so close to an outsider. Doesn’t he have many great-grandsons? He’s never been close to any one of them.” Lara narrowed her eyes as she answered, “Do you think that the old man knows something? Otherwise, why would he have researched the little brat’s origins? Could that kid have some sort of relationship with Silas? Could it be his son?”
Edward asked, “How could that be possible? Silas did not have any woman around him for years, so how could he have a son?”
