Chapter 793
Ryder and his son had been waiting near the intersection close to the
kindergarten.
When it was nearing 7 p.m., Tia finally emerged from the kindergarten.

“Mr. Lowe, I’m sorry for keeping you waiting. I had a few things to take care of.”
Tia remained polite toward Ryder.
In truth, she didn’t have any urgent matters to attend to. She had just been
waiting at the kindergarten for her mother to arrive, deliberately avoiding spending time with Ryder and his son to
prevent any gossip.
“No problem at all. Work comes first. Shall we go then?” Ryder beamed.
He didn’t care whether things would work out between him and Tia in the
end. Just being able to spend more time with her already filled his heart with
contentment and joy.
“My mom should be here soon.” As Tia spoke, a taxi pulled up in front of the

kindergarten and out stepped Marianne.
“Tia, who’s treating us to dinner? Where are we going?” Marianne hurriedly
walked over to her daughter, paying no attention to Ryder and his son.
Tia had just messaged her mother, informing her that Emmanuel’s cousin,
Ryder, was treating them to dinner. Subconsciously, Marianne assumed that
if Emmanuel was handsome and wealthy, then Ryder shouldn’t be too
shabby either.
Little did she expect Tia to point at Ryder and say, “It’s Mr. Lowe. He’s inviting
us to dinner.”
Ryder quickly approached them, wearing a polite smile. “You must be Tia’s
mother. You look so youthful!”
Marianne’s excited expression froze on the spot.
She alternated between pointing at Ryder and looking at her daughter, still
finding it hard to believe.

Chapter 793 Marianne Meets Ryder
3/5
Good Lord, this man is related to the handsome and wealthy Emmanuel?! But
he looks older than me! Can Tia really be interested in someone like him?
Tia was well aware of her mother’s thoughts as she thought the same
emotional roller coaster when she first learned that Ryder and Emmanuel
were cousins.
“Mom, he’s greeting you. Why aren’t you responding?”
“…” Marianne was momentarily speechless.
If she hadn’t known that the man before her was Emmanuel’s cousin, she
would’ve kicked him to the north pole and let him have an eternal romance
with the polar bears.
Who did he think he was to pursue her daughter with his character and even
carry a deadweight with him?!
Ryder’s smile gradually turned awkward when he saw Marianne’s reaction,
and his sense of inferiority awoken again. Sigh, I really am not good enough
for Tia.
After a while, Marianne finally exhaled deeply and asked, “So, where do you

plan on taking us for dinner?”
Since they were already here, she might as well go along with it. It’d be a
waste not to eat.
“Well, Mrs. Franks, where do you want to go?” Ryder politely asked.
“Don’t call me Mrs. Franks. It makes me sound old. Just call me Marianne.”
“Alright, Ms. Marianne!” Ryder, being a straightforward person, still added an
honorific as a sign of respect.
But Marianne didn’t like it at all. She thought the man before her eyes looked
older than her, so she didn’t like the fact that he used honorifics on her.
“Can you afford wherever I suggest?” Marianne asked somewhat
aggressively.
Ryder nodded with a stiff smile, thinking that Emmanuel would never deceive
him. He could afford to eat at high-end places for free and treat them at
low-end places.
“Alright, let’s go to Kellen’s Heavenly Feast, then!” Marianne stated directly,
thinking that Ryder would back down and she wouldn’t have to eat with him.
“Mom, are you crazy?!” Tia was stupefied.
