Chapter 919 - 946: Be Your Woman (3)
"Hmm, isn’t that exactly what you said." Lilian Jackson nodded in agreement.
Daniella Jackson reminded her again, "You’re not that young anymore, and you haven’t dated? You should find a boyfriend."
"I already have one." Lilian Jackson said with a generous smile, "I’ll bring him over when I have time so you can take a look."
"That would be best."
The two exchanged polite pleasantries, and Daniella Jackson stepped away.
As Lilian Jackson watched her leave, she couldn’t help but clench her teeth, looking somewhat dissatisfied. Could it be that Daniella Jackson knows what’s been on her mind?
The way she spoke always seemed to hint at something.
However—
Lilian Jackson glanced in the direction where Koa Jackson had left.
She clenched her fingers.
Since the two of them had argued, she should probably go and check on him, right?
Thinking of this, Lilian Jackson decisively stepped inside the building.
——
The night breeze was gentle and slightly cool.
Mia Ginger looked at the kind-looking old man and asked quietly, "Grandpa, are you asking about Louis Cox?"
Having dismissed Butler Jackson and then Koa Jackson, Mia Ginger could only think of the matter at the dinner table regarding Marianne Jackson. She knew Louis Cox, so the old man might be trying to inquire about his character.
And indeed, as she had thought.
The old man chuckled, and said directly, "You’ve figured it out, young lady."
"It’s easy to guess." Mia Ginger shrugged.
"Then tell Grandpa, what kind of person is this Louis Cox?" The old man watched her with an air of interest.
Mia Ginger pursed her lips in thought.
She could clearly see Louis Cox’s current situation, and based on him and Cesar Myres’ loyal followers, it seemed difficult to secure his position within the Myres Family.
Marianne Jackson liked him, which was an opportunity for him. If he could gain the old man’s approval and become the Jackson family’s grandson-in-law, it would provide a solid backing and make things much easier for him.
But doing so would give them many opportunities to meet.
It felt like life was a play.
For a moment, Mia Ginger felt troubled.
She understood Louis Cox’s feelings for her. With their respective identities, it must be a form of torture for him. She hoped he would do well, but if they were always so close, how could he possibly live well?
In her heart, she felt Marianne Jackson wasn’t right for him.
From top to bottom, the Jackson family had their prejudices against the Myres Family. Zane Jackson and Lydia Williams even more so. Just observing Lydia Williams’ attitude at dinner, Mia Ginger understood that Lydia Williams was completely opposed to this matter.
If Louis Cox truly agreed to marry Marianne Jackson for Odin Myres’ sake, he would naturally suffer grievances.
With his personality...
Mia Ginger pressed her lips together and asked the old man, "What do you think of me?"
"Hmm?" The old man was taken aback, "There’s no need to say; you’re excellent."
Mia Ginger smiled, her voice soft and gentle, "But in some people’s eyes, I’m not good at all. Just a few days ago, there were all sorts of insults about me online."
The old man looked at her, lost in thought after a moment of surprise.
Mia Ginger continued, "I think Louis Cox is quite nice. But probably more people think he’s not so good. Whether someone is good or not, you really can’t just listen to others; you have to find out for yourself, interact with them, and then you can judge. What do you think, Grandpa?"
"Does he like you?" the old man suddenly asked.
Mia Ginger was taken aback, a trace of embarrassment flashing across her face. Before she could reply, her phone suddenly rang.
She took it out to have a look. On the screen, it showed, "Louis Cox."
