The repairman Jeremiah talked about was already in his sixties, he was like a friend of his grandfather, he had seen him twice when he was a
child.
Zachary Brewer lived in this place after retirement, and he dodged many invitations and interviews.
When Paulette mentioned the jade pendant last time, Jeremiah
immediately thought of this elder. He asked at home and actually got the contact information.
When the door was knocked for the third time, white–haired Lilyana Brewer came out to open it.
“Who are you looking for?”
Jeremiah nodded politely and introduced himself, saying, “Madam Brewer, I’m Jeremiah, the one who called Sir Brewer yesterday.”
Lilyana looked him up and down, then suddenly realized, “Jeremiah, you’ve grown so much! Come on in.”
Paulette obediently followed behind.

behind.
“Hello, Sir Brewer.”
“Hello, Sir Brewer.”
Zachary nodded, motioning for them to sit. His sharp eyes lingered on Paulette for a moment, then settled on Jeremiah. “Haven’t seen you in so many years, looking quite successful now. Heard from your grandfather that you’ve taken over the company’s business?”
Jeremiah humbly nodded, “Sir Brewer flattered me, I am still learning.”
“Yeah, humility is a good thing.”
Zachary’s eyes lit up and he said, “Is this your little fiancee?”
Paulette:
“1
Fiancee is fiancee. Why add a little?
Jeremiah saw all her reactions and smiled slightly, “Yes, Paula is turning twenty–one soon, already at the legal marriage age.”
