Chapter 93 Foresight
Jenny left immediately after saying that. Thinking that she was leaving in embarrassment, Yvonne felt
very proud of herself. Just as she was about to say something to Alec, he approached Mr. Lawson.
“Mr. Lawson,” he greeted him respectfully.
“Well, if it isn’t Mr. Faust,” Mr. Lawson said, glancing at him indifferently.
“My grandfather will be celebrating his birthday the day after tomorrow. Will you be free?” Alec didn’t
know if his grandfather had sent an invitation letter to Mr. Lawson, so he decided to invite him in person
just in case.
Mr. Lawson sat on a chair and squinted at him. “I’m a busy, old man. I don’t have time to attend his
party.” “Mr. Lawson-
“Mr. Faust, I’m running a business here.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWith that, Mr. Lawson instructed his staff to remove them from his premise. Before that, he had a good
impression of Alec before. Now, however….
His eyes landed on Yvonne. He decided a man with a girlfriend like that must have a poor eye.
“You” Annoyed that Alec had been rejected, Yvonne was about to chastise him. However, before she
could speak, Alec glared at her.
“Shut up!”
“Alec, I-”
“Mr. Lawson, in that case, I’ll take my leave first,” Alec said, not pressing the issue further. “I won’t disturb
your business.”
Walking to the door, he heard Mr. Lawson say softly, “You should be smarter about who you choose as a
girlfriend. If you choose the wrong person, it will ruin your life.”
“Thanks for the advice, Mr. Lawson,” Alec replied.
As they left, Mr. Lawson closed his eyes and began to doze off.
Outside the shop, Yvonne’s expression was terrible. There was no way she couldn’t tell that Mr. Lawson
was referring to her.
“Alec, who is that person?” Yvonne couldn’t help asking. To make Alec behave so respectfully, he
couldn’t be an ordinary person. However, he had never heard of him in Parrington. Perhaps he was from
another city.
“He’s an elder,” Alec replied. Stopping in his tracks, he turned around to face Yvonne. In an upset tone,
he said, “Yvonne, although you are part of the Dickman, I hope you still have basic manners.”
“Alec, I didn’t mean to-”
“I always kept quiet when you were young, but you’re not a little girl anymore. You should learn to speak.
appropriately.”
He couldn’t take his mind off Jenny. Jenny and Mr. Lawson’s relationship had to be very good because

for his grandfather?
“I’m sorry, Alec,” Yvonne apologized. She agreed that she had been a little too impulsive. However, ever
since she learned about Alec’s thoughts about Jenny, she couldn’t keep herself calm.
“You don’t need to apologize to me.” Alec continued to walk. “I just don’t want you to offend someone you
can’t afford to offend one day. It might even put you in danger.”
Many powerful figures kept a low profile in Parrington. Even Alec didn’t dare to offend people on a whim,
so he couldn’t figure out where Yvonne’s confidence came from.
After they left the mall, Alec drove Yvonne home before returning to Perry Residence.
When he reached the entrance of the compound, he felt a little apprehensive. He wondered if he would
run into Jenny again. If he did, should he invite her to Old Mr. Faust’s birthday party?
Although he had made up his mind to give up, seeing her good relationship and understanding of his
grandfather made him realize how disappointed his grandfather would be if he didn’t invite her.
