Chapter 953: Chapter 953: Four People Going on a Blind Date Together
Bobby really wanted to say that he wouldn’t fall in love, but he glanced at Enna Clark and swallowed his words.
Forget it, if he didn’t like her, that was fine. He knew it himself and there was no need to argue with the won of his family over winning or losing.
As long as he didn’t like her in his heart, that was all that mattered.
However…
The heavy feeling in Bobby’s heart lightened considerably when he thought about what Enna Clark had just told him.
Sigh~His woman was right, he was still too young now. He was too hurried. He needed to take it slow, to beco powerful step by step, steadily and surely.
One day, he would protect his woman, Gigi, and prevent her from being hurt by anyone!
And as for Gigi’s illness, it seed to be a genetic disease… No matter, once he beca capable, he would find the best doctor in the world to treat her. And if that didn’t work, he would study dicine himself in the future. He would research and make sure to cure her disease!
From then on, a grand dream took root in Bobby’s young heart!
He completely cast aside Enna Clark’s words about Granduncle wanting to see him, and his small face regained its usual coolness. He grabbed Enna Clark’s hand and asked, “Gigi is up now, right? I’m going to find her.”
“I’m not sure, let’s go check together.”
The two of them, hand in hand, walked back…

At this mont.
The Habsden Family’s drawing room was blooming with fresh flowers, looking as if it were straight out of a fairy tale castle.
An elderly lady with silver hair sat on the sofa at the head of the room. Although she was advanced in years and her face bore the traces of ti, the unusual poise and nobility she exuded could still make one imagine what a breathtaking beauty she must have been in her youth.
In front of her sat several young and beautiful girls, whose etiquette and the way they carried themselves revealed that they were well-bred socialites.
The Housekeeper was used to the scene in the drawing room, as he saw this scenario several tis a month. Therefore, he thodically prepared the tea and snacks and brought them over—
“Old Lady, your Earl Grey Tea.”
“Ms. Emilia, your Rose Tea.”
“Ms. Sinclair, your fruit tea.”
…
After placing the five portions of tea and snacks, he retreated to just behind the Old Lady, as if he were invisible.
The atmosphere during the afternoon tea was exceptionally lively.
Just then, a servant rushed in, leaned over, and whispered sothing to the Housekeeper. With a knowing look, the Housekeeper approached the happily chatting Old Lady, bent down, and softly said, “Old Lady, the Master has returned.”
“Quickly, have him co here,” commanded the kindly elderly woman with a beaming expression, eagerly instructing the Housekeeper.
The Housekeeper promptly replied, “Very well, I’ll go fetch the Master.”
With that, he bowed and walked out with unruffled composure.
The several young girls sitting on the sofa all revealed looks of delight, each surreptitiously sizing up the others, as if assessing their competition, with a hint of nervousness in their eyes…
It was rumored that the Duke of Habsden did not like overly bold won, but preferred those who were a bit gentler. Each decided she must perform well later, and make her voice sound as gentle as possible!
Each harbored the sa thought, all wanting to be the gentlest among them to captivate that man’s heart, while at the sa ti guarding against the others, not wanting to be overshadowed.
The Old Lady sitting across from them was entirely unaware of these undercurrents. Looking at the beautiful and elegant ladies before her, her heart was already filled with anticipation for a life surrounded by her children and grandchildren.
