Patricia was stunned momentarily. "You mean Isaac's engagement ceremony?"
She knew what was going to happen this Saturday. It was the engagement day between Adeline and
Isaac that had been making waves in the country. Moreover, it was highly possible to see all the big
names from Appleby at the ceremony. It was plausible for Zachary to attend the function since the
Selwyns were ranked second in terms of affluence in the city.
Knowing that he could not hide the truth, Zachary nodded in total honesty. "Patricia, don't turn me down
for this, please?"
In a pristine white suit, he stared at her in anticipation. She pondered about it for a moment as
Courtney would definitely flip out if she attended as well.
After all, Courtney was the one who threw money at Patricia to leave Zachary in a worry that her son
would marry a single mother.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtPutting herself in her shoes, Patricia could understand Courtney's decision. Still, Zachary was special
to her—he was her savior.
"Sure." I'll just have to put up with Madam Selwyn's dirty look. Just how hard will it be?
He broke into a smile and fondled her head. "Thank you!"
Josephine came to the living room just at the right time to see the wholesome moment. Worry sat upon
her brows as she contemplated whether to inform Isaac about it.
Not only did she receive a big tip from Isaac, she was also aware of how nice he had been treating
Patricia. Patricia and Zachary had known each other for a long time, so they would have gotten
together ages ago if they had shared mutual feelings. Thus, Josephine figured that Isaac was indeed
more reliable than Zachary.
She fished out her phone to send Isaac a message, but somebody suddenly snatched it from her
hands. Scott read the message displayed on the screen. Stellan is right. Mrs. Zimmers is on that man's
side!

'Mr. Arnold, Mr. Selwyn has come by today and Miss is having a great time with him. The two young
masters have made dinner. Why don't you stop by and have a taste of their cooking? They're not bad
at cooking.'
Almost instantly, he deleted it with a light smile. There was no way Isaac could taste the dishes they
made single-handedly. He would rather feed it to the pigs!
His little countenance darkened. "Mrs. Zimmers, I would appreciate it if you cut contact with that person
in future."
It was a terrifying sight to see Scott become stern. Although he was a mere child, he exuded a
domineering aura like an adult would.
Josephine was paralyzed with shock as she had never seen him acting like this. She began to wonder
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmif the one she spent time with was really Scott.
Noticing her surprised yet confused face, he beckoned her over. "Come. I have something to tell you."
She followed him to the kitchen, in which Stellan had just finished the final dish. The latter smiled while
serving the dish onto the dining table. "Scott, is my guess correct?"
Scott nodded in response before motioning Josephin to take a seat.
Stellan grinned. "Mrs. Zimmers, don't be afraid. We're not blaming you. We just wanna tell you that
Isaac is going to get engaged with Miss Adeline this Saturday. It's even reported on the entertainment
news. So, he's not the man for our mother."
Stellan is gentle and amiable as always, thought Josephine as she nodded, but her eyes widened at
the very next second. "Mr. Arnold is going to get engaged with someone else?"
Scott crossed his arms and replied coldly, "Yeah."
Despite the shock, she finally knew the reason behind their behavior. The glint in her eyes became
determined. "Okay. No matter how much he's willing to pay me, I won't receive any money from him
anymore. How dare he do this to Patricia! Hmph! We're not an easy target."
It seemed like she was more infuriated than the boys by the news. The duo exchanged glances and
Stellan patted on her shoulder.
"Mrs. Zimmers, calm down or your blood pressure will rise again."
