Chapter 20 - 20: 20 Encounter on the Rooftop 2

However, this was understandable. A man who was about to inherit the Futuren Kingdom had to be disciplined and groomed personally since childhood, leaving no room for relaxation.

Today’s Baron Stuart was the greatest achievement of Zachary Stuart’s life. Rather than the Futuren Group, he took more pride in this beloved grandson.

Baron Stuart’s business acumen had completely inherited his grandfather’s success, or even surpassed it. How could he not be proud of having such a grandson?

As a result, since Baron Stuart took over the ‘Futuren’, Old Master Stuart no longer strictly supervised him. He knew that by now, Baron Stuart was fully capable of handling the Futuren Kingdom.

“Hmm.” Glancing at his grandfather, Baron Stuart knew that he might not be able to escape tonight.

But there was one thing he didn’t want to obey: his marriage.

From childhood to adulthood, his identity was not ordinary, and he had never owned the things common people had.

By the age of 20, he had never had a true friend.

In the eyes of the outside world, he never interacted with the opposite sex. In reality, it was not that he didn’t want to, but he didn’t dare. He had tasted the bittersweet feeling of wanting love but not daring to during his university years.

Until he was 28 years old, he never fell for any other girl again, completely sealing away his once-passionate heart in the corner of his iceberg.

However, this did not mean that Baron Stuart could accept just any woman arranged for him by his grandfather!

Baron Stuart grunted and turned to leave the Wine Party Hall. He knew that as soon as he left the hall, his grandfather would send someone to follow him!

As expected, within three seconds of Baron Stuart’s departure, Old Master Stuart signaled to the two bodyguards at the door who then trailed behind him, leaving the conference hall.

Since Baron Stuart was taking a private elevator, the two bodyguards had to take a normal elevator.

At the room entrance, Emily Walker confirmed that there was no one inside and had no choice but to leave.

As she waited for the elevator, her cell phone rang in her backpack.

Glancing at the caller ID, Emily looked slightly disheartened.

She hadn’t been home for two days straight since that day. Her uncle and aunt must be going crazy by now.

Of course, they were not worried about her safety, but they wanted to know if she had achieved what they wanted.

To conveniently answer the call, Emily walked quietly to the staircase entrance, “Aunt.”

“Emily, I heard that Wallace’s surgery went well. Did you talk to Young Master Stuart about our family’s situation?”

Because Emily hadn’t come home for several days, Emma Hudson was both worried and concerned, unsure if Emily had been staying by the Crown Prince’s side at Futuren Corporation or deliberately avoiding her and not returning home.

With no other option, Emma Hudson sent someone to inquire and learned that Emily had been staying in the hospital overnight. She also unintentionally heard that Wallace’s surgery had been successful, and even the previous medical debts had been completely paid off.

Emma Hudson thought that the Crown Prince must be very satisfied with Emily, which was why he helped her with the hospital matters.
