At Kate’s question, Michael contemplated for a mont, before he said, "Not a problem. But the frequency of that will be quite low, as I might not be free so often."
With the determination of increasing his net worth, making him the richest person in the world, or even dominating the technological industry, he would need to put in a lot of effort.
While the effort might not involve him directly managing the businesses and so on, he still needed to acquire SP.
It was only through reading and acquiring skills that he could find the financial support that he required. As for the necessary blueprints and so on, they could also be acquired using the SP.
So, Michael would be busy for quite a while, but even then, he might take so ti from the days that he would be relaxing, in order to give her so pointers.
A smile suddenly blossod on Kate’s face when she received a positive response from Michael.
This smile, it enhanced Kate’s beauty, that it almost dazzled Michael, to the extent that he stared at her for quite a while.
During the ti that he was still admiring the beauty in front of him, Kate looked at him and said in a sarcastic tone, "You are looking at like that, yet you claim that you don’t want to marry ?"
Michael did not respond to those words, as he shifted his attention sowhere else.
The two of them continued chatting for quite a while, before about 30 minutes later, they left once again.
This ti, they headed out to look for John, whom Michael had already inford about them going over.
Previously, he wanted to go to the restaurant that he had acquired for them, but John claid that they had to go ho.
So, John had left soone else to take care of the restaurant, while he and Rebecca went back ho, preparing to receive Michael and Kate.
They felt grateful that Kate had gone to the orphanage to help them out, to the extent that she was about to clash with the gangsters.
Additionally, she had also gone out with Michael, when he was dealing with Dante and the shadow assembly gang.
So, they felt really grateful, but they did not have a chance of thanking her, considering that they did not have her contact information.
When they got to Kala street, Kate realized that the apartnts here were almost of the sa level as the one that Michael was living in.
Since the children had not yet gone to school, they were already waiting for the two of them outside the apartnt building.
And when they spotted them, they quickly rushed over, surrounding them. Most of them recognized Michael, considering that he had been with them for quite a while.
Even during the ti that he had left the orphanage, he occasionally went to visit them with so gifts. So, they particularly liked him.
As for Kate, so of them could rember her, while others could not. But still, because she was a beauty, the children loved her at first sight.
The group then entered the apartnt, where John and Rebecca were waiting. They had already prepared a few als, which Michael and Kate ate.
Even though the two of them had already eaten back at Rising Spring hotel, they still had to eat out of courtesy.
Then, they began chatting once again, with mostly Rebecca and Kate talking. The two of them seed to have quite a good relationship, despite only eting twice.
As for John and Michael, they could only listen to the conversation between the two ladies, while keeping them company.
It was just that, when the ladies began talking, it seed that there was never an end to their stories. Just when one story was about to end, another one would suddenly pop up.
Just a single idea could turn into a 3 hour narrative. So, Michael had no other choice but to interrupt them.
"Ahem, I have sothing that I need to do. So, I will leave first." Michael said as he stood up.
But he had only said those words when suddenly, Rebecca looked at him with a puzzled expression on her face.
She suddenly asked, "What? Are you planning on leaving your girlfriend behind when leaving? That’s not how it works. Since the two of you are quite young, you need to bond more. Spend more ti together, get to know each other better."
Rebecca’s words dumbfounded everyone in the room. They all looked at her, not sure what to say for a few seconds.
"Grandma, we are not dating. We are just friends." Michael suddenly spoke up, after a mont of speechlessness.
"Ah? You are already denying it? She is a lady, yet she has not denied it. So, why are you?" Rebecca suddenly questioned as she stared at Michael.
Her words left Michael stunned, while Kate who was just about to explain, was also rendered speechless.
Then, looking at the expression on Michael’s face, she almost burst out in laughter. But at the sa ti, she felt kind of irritated.
Was there sothing wrong with her that Michael was so eager to prove their relationship? Was she not beautiful enough? Or did she have a poor personality, one that he did not like?
Though, as she looked at him, she wondered, why did he look different? She could not tell what had changed about him, but for so reason, he seed to be kind of charming...
Michael on the other hand did not know what was going on in Kate’s mind.
Instead, he simply looked at Rebecca with a helpless expression on his face.
It was John who ca to his rescue at this ti as he said, "Alright, stop ssing with the kids."
John then looked at Michael and said, "Don’t mind her. You guys can go ahead and do what you have to do, if you left anything pending."
"Okay." Michael responded before he looked at Kate and asked, "Are you going? Or are you maybe planning to stay longer?"
"I also need to prepare myself, as I will be on duty at night. So, I guess I will co back another ti." Kate responded.
She had almost forgotten about the fact that she would need to be on duty at night. So, she needed to go back and make preparations before ti.
The two of them then left the apartnt, with John and Rebecca escorting them downstairs.
Watching as Michael’s Koenigsegg Regera drove off into the distance, John looked at Rebecca and asked, "You did that on purpose, right?"
"That’s right. That kid, I’m afraid that he might not get a good partner, and get one that will only cause him endless trouble.
And this girl, Kate, I thought that she is good. So, maybe if I give them so push, they can get together." Rebecca responded with a smile on her old wrinkled face.
John thought about it, realizing that it made sense. They all cared about Michael, from the first day that he joined the orphanage. And, just from what he had done for them, they were not willing to see him suffer.
From their observation, they thought that Kate was not a bad option. It was not just about her appearance, but she seed to be kind.
After all, even without knowing much about Michael and the wealth that he possessed, she was willing to risk a fight with the gangsters in order to save them from the shadow assembly.
Just from that, they thought that she was a nice person. And so far, they had not noticed any fault at her personality.
"Okay, let’s try that a few more tis. Let’s see if the two of them can get together. But if it doesn’t work, then just don’t force things." John said as he turned around to enter into the apartnt building.
Rebecca also followed behind him, as they still needed to make a few arrangents before they went out.
....
Michael directly drove the Koenigsegg back to his apartnt. And there, Kate took a taxi, before she left.
There was the option of Michael taking her back, but he thought against it. He had already wasted a lot of ti, so, it was better for him to go back and continue earning SP.
Additionally, he thought, if he continued being with Kate, who knew, soone might end up popping up and forcing them into so marriage or engagent.
As soon as he got back to the apartnt, he bought a laptop from the system store, before he made so installations on it, then began operating it.
As for what he was doing, at the mont, he was searching for the information related to his family.
He did not believe that his family did not have an origin. So, he decided to search, as maybe, there was a possibility that his family was originally rich?
Just like in those short dramas that he had been watching when he was young, where the parents of the main character turned out to be from a rich family from a big city.
Of course, Michael had no intention of going to look for the extended family. Instead, he just wanted to find a way of explaining the uncle persona, in case there was a need.
In just a little while, the information that he wanted was displayed on the screen in front of him. And as he began reading it, his expression shifted slightly.
