Chapter 95
Gloria came to pick Skylar up after work.
In the car, Gloria told her George had bought too many things, including stationery, antiques, books, old paintings, porcelain, emerald ware, and more.
“You can leave it if it’s something you don’t know. But let George know if there’s any counterfeit. He’s rich, so he can’t only blame himself for not knowing more if he’s been deceived. You don’t have to worry about upsetting him by telling him about the counterfeits,” Gloria said.
Skylar smiled and replied, “Okay, I got it.”
George’s house was located in a rural area. It was a vintage–style residence with a pavilion and attic.
When she set foot into the place, Skylar thought she had arrived at a scenic spot.
“You should stay here tonight. I’ve got a hot spring over there, and you can enjoy it,” George said to Gloria
with a smile.
It had been more than a year since Gloria’s last visit. Seeing George had renovated his house again, she
asked, “When did you build the hot spring?”
“There has always been a water source for the hot spring. I thought of going to a hot spring not long ago, so I had them make one,” George replied casually.
Gloria wasn’t interested. “I just got discharged from the hospital, and my heart isn’t that well. I’d better not go into a hot spring. Your house looks just like a resort. The air is pretty fresh, too. Let’s go. Show Skye your treasures.”
“Okay. Let’s go.” George led the way.
Skylar followed behind the two elders and enjoyed the views around her from time to time. The scenery
was breathtaking
She recalled that, back in college, she would spend Saturdays in rural areas with her classmates. When they passed by George’s house, some of them had thought it was a tourist spot.
They had even asked where they could get the ticket but had been stopped by the guard. They had beent told it was a private residence, not a tourist spot.
They had been shocked when they heard it was a private residence.
Some of her classmates had marveled at how luxurious the house was.
Skylar couldn’t help but feel the same way when she entered the house. No wonder Gloria had told her not to worry about upsetting George if there were counterfeits.
“Our family owns a resort, and there’s also a hot spring. It’s nearby. I called Joe when I went to pick you up. The two of you can stay there tonight.” Gloria seized any chance to create opportunities for Skylar and Joe to spend time together.
She had been young once, and she knew Skylar was pretty and had a good figure. If Skylar were to wear a fitted swimsuit, Joe, who had always been cold, would probably be captivated by Skylar.
“Tell Joe to come to my place. It has been a while since I last saw him. I can talk to him for a bit,” George.
hurriedly said.
Gloria rolled her eyes. “They’re spending time together as a couple. Why do you need to get in the middle
of them?”
Although Gloria had scolded George, he didn’t get angry and merely chuckled. Anyone could tell that they had been good friends since they were young.
“My grandchildren can only come back from abroad later. Once they’re back, you should come together. Let’s gather everyone on my 70th birthday,” George suggested.
Gloria nodded. “Alright. I agree.
As they chatted, they arrived in front of a three–story building.
I’ll go for a walk and come here to
“I store all those things in this building. After waking up in the morning have a look. The more I look at these antiques, the more I like them.” George turned and said to Skylar.
When Skylar saw the three–story storage, she was amazed.
The building was like a mini museum.
