The Jones family had about a hundred years of history in Sea City. They were a family with a rich
heritage. After they got involved in the business industry a few decades ago, they became highly
successful. Soon, they became one of the four biggest families in Sea City.
Mr. Jones was ruthless, and he had a son as well as a daughter. His son was Dillon, while his daughter
was Zhenny. She was Mdm. Jones, who had a conflict with Adina due to the position of Elitos chief
designer for chip development. Zhenny had a daughter called Jasmine Yackley, who happened to be
the girl who kept going after Flint.
Adina smiled faintly. What a coincidence ! She actually had conflicts with both Zhenny and Jasmine.
She swiped over the information about Zhenny and Jasmine before she read about Dillon. He was fifty
years old but only had one son. His wife had passed away about two decades ago, and he had
remained single until now.
The Internet’s review of him was quite good, but his skills were worrying. A few subsidiary companies
under Jones Corporation had gone into bankruptcy in his hands. Therefore, Mr. Jones officially
withdrew Dillon’s status as the heir about eight years ago. He then handed Jones
Corporation to Zhenny to manage instead. Gradually, less and less information about Dillon appeared
on the Internet.
Adina keyed in both Dillon and her mother’s names at the same time, but she could not find any
relevant news.
She held her phone, and her fingers suddenly froze.
She did not know why she was so concerned about this. Was it that important to know who her
biological father was?
She was a grown woman, and she was going to have her own family. Why was she still pursuing such
a silly thing?
Morganna loved to gossip. Perhaps she had purposely made up her mother’s personal affairs, and
Adina took it seriously.
Adina turned her phone off and slipped it into her pocket before she washed her face and returned to
the living room.
The four children surrounded Mdm. Xavier as they chatted. Once people got older, they would enjoy
being surrounded by kids. Mdm. Xavier seemed to be squinting because she was grinning.
“Great-grandma, listen to this. George also used to pee his pants when he was little.”
“Harold Winters, shut up!”
George’s face turned slightly red as he lowered his voice and scolded Harold.
Harold leaned on Mdm. Xavier’s knees and cheekily said, “I won’t shut up. I want to keep talking!
Great-grandma, George looks like a small adult now, but he actually liked to drink milk when he was
little. He drank more than me!”
“Who’s the one who still wants to drink milk in the middle of the night now?” Alden pointed out
seriously.
Harold righteously replied, “I get hungry, so it’s normal for me to need milk.”
“All of you are just four years old, so you have to drink more milk. You’ll only grow taller after you drink
milk.” Mdm. Xavier turned to the side and instructed, “Richard, ask some people to deliver milk powder
and buy four feeding bottles. After dinner later, make a bottle of milk for each of these kids.” 1
Harold was extremely delighted. He truly liked to drink milk, but his dad did not allow him to use a
feeding bottle. He had not enjoyed drinking milk for a very long time. 1.
He held Mdm. Xavier’s arm in a cute manner and said, ” Great-grandma, I really like you!”
George was speechless.
Alden was at a loss for words too
When Adina saw this, she could not help but chuckle.
Just as she was about to speak, her phone vibrated. She glanced at the incoming call and discovered
that it was from Duke
