Unexpected Blessing After Divorce

Chapter 89 Will Never Know

When Yuliana arrived at the Solace residence, she could not help but remember a few rumors surrounding the Solace family.

It was said that the Solace family had a history that dated back to a few hundred years ago. In fact, the mansion was built at the beginning of the last century. A formidable building that incorporated a fusion of architectural styles, it had witnessed the change of time over centuries and remained standing to this day.

The mansion was much like its owners. The Solace family was true to their essence regardless of how the world around them had changed.

There were also rumors that the Solace family maintained a couple of old family traditions. For example, the first-born son must become the head of the family while the other descendants could either manage the family’s businesses or choose to be employed elsewhere. These other descendants could also decide to live freely for the rest of their lives.

While these were only rumors, they were not entirely unfounded. At the very least, Christopher’s father, Zachary, was the first-born son, therefore, he became the head of Solace Corporation. When it came to Christopher’s generation, Kendrick was the eldest son and was now managing Solace Corporation, too It was an unfair tradition, but upon careful thought, one could not say it was completely wrong in principle. After all, such a tradition had ensured the Solace family’s prosperity for hundreds of years. The eldest son had to carry the weight of the entire family on his shoulders from the moment he was born, and more often than not, the pressure was unbearable. The other descendants, however, would be well provided for by the family.

Presently, Yuliana hesitated for a moment before getting down from the car.

The Solace family’s maid walked up to Yuliana and subtly appraised her, then said with a smile, “Ms. Livingstone, this way, please.”

Yuliana nodded at her and headed in the shown direction.

The maid led Yuliana to a traditional reception room.

The reception room was very tastefully decorated, with elegant furniture and expensive-looking ornaments. There was nothing gaudy about the space, and it belied the Solace family’s understated sense of style.

The Solace family might be a prominent household in Juxshire and in the country, but they were an elusive entity.
