Chapter 1321
Cornelia, “What do you want me to say?” She was afraid that her words might hurt him even more.
Knowing Jarvis was also a student at the University of Riverton and that they had attended lectures together,
Cornelia tried to recall once again. Sadly, she still had no memory of him whatsoever.
Jarvis said, “We were classmates, after all. You gotta say something nice, just to make me feel a bit better.”
Comelia said, “You’re handsome, rich and come from a good family!”
Who wanted to hear such flattery?
He stared at het, his eyes filled with frustration and indignation, “You’re so cold–hearted!”
Comelia asked “Am I cold–hearted?”

way about.
She couldn’t keep someone hanging or maintain ambiguity with someone she didn’t love.
As Comelia was about to say something else, Emily, who had been ignored by them, suddenly said, “Jarvis, just give
it up. I can tell, Nelly really has no feelings for you.”
Jarvis grabbed him, “What would you know, kid?”
Emily said “You adults always think we kids don’t know anything, you never respect our opinions. But we know a lot
more than you think.”
“Why do you think Nelly has no feelings for me?” Jarvis asked this question, looking at Cornelia.
Emily looked at him as if he were an idiot, “If she had feelings for you, how come you haven’t even held her hand in
all these months?”
Jarvis’s pursuit of the Duran family’s girl had become a hot topic in their circle. Everyone in their group knew that
Jarvis had given up his family business to start his own. He was indeed capable, having achieved success through
his own efforts.
Such a great guy would be sought after anywhere, with many girls chasing him and more people introducing him to
potential partners.
In the past, he always said he was busy with work, that he was still young and not in a hurry to find a partner. But
when Grandpa Augustine approached him, he agreed to go on a blind date.
The girls introduced to him and those pursuing him were all single and had never had boyfriends. While Old
Augustine’s granddaughter had just divorced and was pregnant.

Among so many girls, most people wouldn’t choose her. But Jarvis fell in love with Old Augustine’s granddaughter at
first sight, as if she were his only choice.
Some even speculated that the granddaughter had cast a spell on him, making him so smitten. Of course, this idea
was only entertained in people’s minds and no one dared to voice it. After all, she had the powerful Duran family
behind her.
Some people whispered behind his back, calling Jarvis a foolish young man, not knowing what he was chasing.
At first, such talk wasn’t much and Jarvis didn’t pay much attention. But as time went on, more people started to
gossip, and he couldn’t control it anymore, letting them say what they wanted.
He gently pinched Emily’s face, “Why don’t you play with other kids, instead following adults around?”
Emily replied, “The other kids are too immature. I find it boring to play with them. I prefer hanging out with adults,
it’s more interesting.”
Jarvis responded, “You’re calling others immature?”
