NovelFinishChapter 468 "...So, I lent them a hand, and now they're touched enough to joinfor dinner as a thank you?" "Yep! Exactly! It's a rare opportunity, Dad, you've got to cherish it. To show you're serious, why don't you cook dinner tonight? Whip up sof your best dishes!" Tarquin: "..." Why did he suddenly feel so undervalued? He was the one who helped, yet now he's playing host! Seeing his dear old dad silent, Elijah continued, "Dad, if you're aiming to win over Mom, you've got to charm her son first! You weren't exactly Mr. Nice Guy to Mom before, and Elliot and his brothers weren't your biggest fans. If it wasn't for your help today, they wouldn't have agreed to have dinner with you! So, don't feel hard done by. Just count your blessings and don't look a gift horse in the mouth." "..." A roast from his own son was a critical hit! Tarquin bit his lip then asked, "Is Elysia joining too?" "Of course, she is! It wouldn't do without Mom!" Tarquin, skeptical, "She knows about the with the Slater family today?" "Nope, Elliot told Mom we all had a grand twith the Slater family. She bought it, so when you see her, zip it about the Slater family !" Tarquin inwardly scoffed, thinking how easy it was to fool speople.

Make a good impression, get Elliot, Evan, and Emmett to warm up to you a bit more. If they give you the nod, Mom's approval won't be far behind!" "..." Tarquin couldn't care less about Elysia's approval.
But he knew, if he didn't plan this dinner right, his son would make a scene! Coincidentally, he had spressing questions for Elysia too, about that mysterious person........
After a moment, Tarquin conceded, "Alright! Dad's got it, I'll cook dinner for them tonight." "Good." After hanging up, Tarquin pondered over Elysia and the mystery surrounding her...
Lowell was also in the office, teasing, "Elijah's got more sense than you! Knowing to win the small ones over first to get to the big one! He's right, you know, don't be ungrateful. Ms. Thorne is a catch! Even if it's just to find a brother for Elijah, you should put in the effort!" Tarquin snapped out of his thoughts and looked at him, "Like Elysia?" "Yeah! I do!" "Then why don't you pursue her? If you succeed, Elliot, Evan, and Emmett can still be brothers to Elijah." Lowell's smile froze, "Tarquin, that joke's in poor taste! I do like Ms. Thorne, but I'm not looking to make her my wife. I'd rather she be my sister-in-law!" "..." Overthinking it, idle hands! Clean up those files on your desk by tomorrow morning; I'll be checking." Lowell was aghast, "You're kidding, right?" "I don't see the joke." Lowell was near tears, "That's impossible to finish overnight! Besides, I'm just an assistant, how can I do a CEO's job? I'm not cut out for it, really not!" "Can't do it? Then find Charlie, leave tonight, start there tomorrow." Lowell: "I was wrong, I'll drop the matchmaking act, please, letoff." "Too late! Work through the night!"
