Chapter 17: Parental Love

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Since it was decided, the rest was simple. The two of them returned to Target Corporation to sign the contract. The moment the contract was signed, Jenny would be Christopher’s personal secretary.

With the house bought, Christopher temporarily did not have anything to hand over to Jenny. He returned to the rental house and simply packed his things before moving to the No.1 Villa King.

However, he felt it was too lonely to live in such a huge villa alone.

Therefore, Jenny’s first mission was to find a nanny and security guard for him.

The security system had to be good in such a huge villa.

As for the nanny, it was necessary. How could he clean such a huge place himself?

Although Jenny wasn’t familiar with these jobs, a personal secretary was basically a nanny, to put it bluntly. Therefore, she quickly got to work.

The first mission given to her by the new boss had to be completed properly.

Christopher stayed in the villa for the entire morning. In the afternoon, he had nothing to do and received a message from his cousin who was still in school.


“Christopher, I came to New York City with my classmates. Come and fetch me. We’re already at the airport!

“Remember! Don’t tell my mom!”

Looking at this message, Christopher couldn’t help but roll his eyes.

This cousin of his was the younger daughter of his aunt’s family. Her name was Sally. She should have just entered university and was usually very worrisome.

His family was not very well-to-do. When he was in college, his aunt’s family had helped him a lot. Therefore, after he started working, his aunt’s family often asked his parents for money.

He had made some money in the past year, and most of it had been taken away by his aunt’s family.

Therefore, he didn’t have a good impression of them. He only had a good impression of this young cousin Sally.

She came to New York City to play behind his aunt’s back. If he didn’t say anything, his aunt would definitely blame him.

Therefore, he could only let his cousin down.

“Mom, tell Aunt that Sally is here. Tell her not to worry. I’ll take good care of her.”

Christopher didn’t want to talk to his aunt, so he directly called his mother.

When she found out that her niece was with her son, Carolyn was immediately shocked and hurriedly said, “Why did she go to your place? Your aunt almost called the police trying to find her!”

Christopher knew that this was the case. If Sally ran out, the house would definitely be in chaos.

“Tell Aunt not to worry. Also, I’ve sent you guys some money. I’ve made a sum from my business recently. Don’t save up the money I gave you. Buy whatever you want to eat and wear. Tell me if it’s not enough.”

Christopher had long wanted to send money to his parents. However, he was afraid that they would be frightened by his huge wealth, so he could only take it slow.

Otherwise, bringing his parents over was what he wanted to do the most.

When Carolyn heard that her son was involved in a business, she was pleasantly surprised but also a little worried. She only hung up after reminding him repeatedly to pay more attention to matters.

Then, she called her sister and told her where Sally was. After hanging up, she happily took out her card and went to the bank.

When she saw the additional $500,000 in the bank card, she staggered in fear. After she reacted, she put the card back where it was as if she had just stolen it.

When she reached home, she closed the door and pulled Christopher’s father, William, into the bedroom.

“What are you doing? You’re acting crazy.” William had already retired. Other than playing with dogs all day, he was hoping that his son would bring him a daughter-in-law so that he could carry his eldest grandson soon.

Carolyn carefully took out her bank card with wide eyes. “Our son sent us money. Guess how much?”

“What’s there to guess? With our son’s salary, it’s at most $2,000.”

When he thought of his son’s current situation, William felt flustered.

It was all his fault for being unable to give his son a better life.

Carolyn stretched out her hand and whispered, “$5… 500,000!”

“What?”

William’s reaction was intense. “Where did he get the money?”

“Why are you so loud? Don’t let anyone hear you!” Carolyn quickly pulled her husband back and told him what Christopher had told her.

After hearing this, William walked back and forth a few times and then said, “My son has grown up! It’s a good thing!

“However, we can’t listen to him. Doing business is risky. He might lose it someday. Let’s not spend this money recklessly. It might be useful to him in the future!”

Carolyn nodded. “I think so, too. Let’s save the money for now. When our son finds a wife, we can use this money to buy them a house.”

They couldn’t buy a house with $500,000, but it was still possible to afford the down payment.

Christopher didn’t expect that his parents, who were used to saving money, couldn’t bear to use the money he gave them and even wanted to save it to buy a house for him.

All parents loved their children. If they knew that Christopher already had a villa worth hundreds of millions, who knew what they would think?

They would probably only be happy for their son.

At this moment, Christopher was driving the latest model multi-purpose vehicle from Mercedes-Benz that Jenny had prepared to rush to the airport. His Lamborghini could only seat two people. It was definitely not possible to fetch Sally and her classmates.

Outside the airport, Sally, wearing a short-sleeved shirt and a short skirt, fanned the wind with her hand. The weather was a little hot today. She had already turned red after staying a little outside.

Two men and a woman were standing beside her. The girl’s face was also red from the heat as she leaned against a boy with short hair.


Another boy wearing glasses and branded clothes looked impatient.

“Sally, why don’t we go? We might as well take a taxi and find a hotel instead of waiting for your cousin.”

The boy with glasses was called Albert. He was Sally’s admirer. His family owned a small trading company, and he was the richest among the four.

His sense of superiority made it difficult for him to endure this kind of waiting time. In his opinion, it was really better to take a taxi himself.

Sally frowned and looked at the time, saying, “Let’s wait a little longer. My cousin is definitely on the way now.”

“Sally, it’s really too hot. Albert is right. Why don’t we take a taxi?” The other girl couldn’t stand it, either.

Instead of squeezing in a car with a stranger, she also felt that the guy’s suggestion was better.

“Sally, your cousin has to take leave to pick us up. He only earns so little every day. Don’t make things difficult for him. The few of us can still have fun together on our own. Hurry up and tell him to not come.”

They all knew about Sally’s cousin’s situation, so Albert did not expect Christopher to drive a good car to pick them up.

He wouldn’t be able to endure it if the few of them had to squeeze into a car..
