Once they stepped inside, the butler took Jared’s coat and said, “Jared, Ms. Pritchard, Tim, and Alyssa
are all waiting for you in the dining room.”
“Where’s Ryder?” Jared asked.
“The young master just got home and should be in the dining room as well, the butter replied.
Jared nodded in response, and then headed upstairs toward the dining room.
Agnes was silent carrying a cake and trailing behind Jared
She had forgotten about the lily flowers gifted by the cake shop owner and didn’t bring them inside.
Alyssa lit up when she saw Jared, gently touched his face, and said with a frown, Jared, why did you
lose so much weight?”
“I didn’t lose weight just been out of town on a business trip,” Jared replied
Alyssa stared at him for a moment before saying. “You definitely lost weight. You’ve always been a
picky eater, you surely didn’t eat well while out. Next time, I’ll send our chef with you, so I won’t have to
worry”
Jared responded with a helpless smile, “I was on a business trip, not a vacation”
Then he changed the subject, asking, “What did you make for dinner today?”
“I made fish and chips, roast chicken, grilled lobster, and spaghetti bolognese, all your favorites, Alyssa
replied with a smile.
The Whitfield family actually had a dedicated chef who would prepare a vanety of dishes, mostly high-
end seafood and imported ingredients.
But these home-style dishes were rare treats
Alyssa turned to Agnes and said, “Jared once had spaghetti bolognese at a restaurant in another city
and has been craving it ever since. I hired many chefs to make it, but he always said it wasn’t the real
spaghetti bolognese, just regular noodles. I had no choice but to go to that city and learn how to cook it
myself. Jared is really picky.”
Agnes laughed and said. “You’re really good to Jared.”
Alyssa looked at Jared with a loving smile, “Of course, he’s my beloved little brother
That’s when Agnes noticed Ryder sitting at the dining table, his gaze fixed on Alyssa
His eyes seemed to show a hint of accustomed loneliness.
Despite her short stay at the Whitfield Manor, Agnes had noticed this.
Alyssa seemed to care more for Jared than for Ryder, whether in how often she talked to him, or fixing
his attire before they went out.
And Jared acted like a child around Alyssa.
But Alyssa’s care for Ryder was significantly less obvious, not that she didn’t care, hut she wasn’t as
expressive.
Perhaps it was because Ryder was always cold and distant, as if he rejected everyone
Agnes handed the cake to Ryder, saying, “Congrats on your discharge. This cake is my gift to you.”
“Thanks” Ryder replied.
During dinner, only Tim, Alyssa, and Jared were talking
Ryder didn’t say a word.
And the usually lively Agnes was unusually quiet, just eating silently.
Alyssa noticed Agnes’s change in mood and asked, “Agnes, what’s wrong? Is something bothering
you?”
“No. Im just thinking about some things, Agnes quickly denied
Jared casually said, “Agnes and I are planning to move out tonight.”
Agnes suddenly looked up at Jared
“Why are you moving out?” Tim asked, puzzled.
Alyssa said, “Don’t worry, they don’t always have to stay with us. Jared is newly mamed, let him enjoy
his newlywed life. It’s okay for them to move out, as long as they visit us often.”
