Chapter 29
Then, the next second, a scene that shocked Isaac happened.
Francis smiled and said in his hoarse voice, “Don’t you know that I don’t like women?”
Hearing that, Winston was so enraged that his face contorted with anger as he glared at Francis.
At the side, Quincy smiled awkwardly. “Stop kidding, Francis. That’s just a rumor. Do you think we’d believe it?”
“Rumor has it that I am fierce, violent, ignorant, and have no interest in women. I think it’s all true.
“You rascal!” Winston picked up the pillow beside him and smashed it at Francis. “You shouldn’t slander yourself even if you refuse to get a wife. Isaac is here. Can you set a good example for my great–grandson?”
“Grandpa, please teach your great–grandson well then. I’m already in my twenties and can’t change any more.”
Then, Francis stood up and stared at Quincy.
“So, Aunt Quincy, please ignore me. You know, I have a bad temper
His voice sounded terrifyingly cold.
With that, he strode off on his long legs and left Quincy behind, trembling with anger.
Quincy thought, “You’re just a lawless good–for–nothing under my care since young and only know how to make trouble How dare you threaten me!
You must have been living a very comfortable life recently.
“This rascall” Winston stared at Francis‘ back with eyes filled with concern.
“Great–Grandpa, Isaac said sweetly.
“Hmm?” Winston looked at Isaac warmly and asked, “What is it, Isaac?”
With pursed lips, Isaac said, “Daddy cares about me very much. Besides, I can take good care of myself.”
What he meant was that he didn’t want a stepmother.
“Okay. You’re the best, Isaac. Winston hugged Isaac and coaxed him lovingly.
After Francis went upstairs, he went straight to his room.
He sat on the couch, took out a cigarette, put it in his mouth, and lit it.
While he smoked, he subconsciously looked at their family portrait on the table.
His expression darkened as he thought, “Maybe it’s time to move things forward.”
After smoking a cigarette, Francis took out his phone and dialed a number.
“Hello? To what do I owe the pleasure of your call, Francis?” the man on the other end said teasingly.
“When are you coming back?” Francis asked.
“I haven’t decided. I still want to have more fun. The man smiled and teased, “What? Do you
miss me, Francis?”

“Fuck off, Francis hissed. “You’d better get back at once and explain what happened back then. Otherwise, you know the consequences.
“What?” Xeno Lincoln was so frightened because of Francis‘ words that he almost rolled down the bench on the beach. Xeno iminediately became solemn. “What do you mean? I don’t comprehend.”
“According to the DNA test, Isaac has a twin brother.”
“What?” This time, Xeno rolled down the bench, and his hair stood up in shock.
“What’s going on? How is that possible?”
Tll book a plane ticket immediately. Wait for me to return and find out! Don’t rush to find me guilty.”
Xeno immediately hung up the phone and ran back to the hotel in his swimming trunks.
Then, he rushed back overnight.
After school, Ryland and Isaac walked out of the school gate and saw Samantha waving at him.
In a long red dress, Samantha was eye–catching.
Ryland rushed toward her excitedly upon seeing her.
After pondering, Isaac squeezed his backpack and followed behind Ryland.
Mommy, why are you here to pick me up today?”
Samantha ruffled Ryland’s hair and said, ‘I came to show you the house.”
“Huh? Mommy, did you buy a house?”
“Of course, I keep my promises.”
“Well… Ryland looked back at Isaac. “Isaac, I’m leaving with my mommy.”
“Okay, Ryland. Goodbye, Ms. Johansson.”
“Bye.”
Seeing them get in the taxi, Isaac hurriedly got into his driver’s car and said anxiously, “Keep up with the taxi ahead.”
Once again, the forgotten driver of the Johansson family was rendered speechless.
Samantha liked the residential area named Ashland Heights, a mid–range school district property. It was close to Sovereign Kindergarten, only a few minutes‘ drive away. There were also an elementary school and high school nearby.
In all honesty, Samantha was doing great at her job of being a good mother.
Now, she even knew to buy a school district property.
In the past, she bought houses according to her mood. Now, she knew to consider value for money.
However, only Samantha knew that was not the case. It was all because she had no money on her hands now.
She could only afford this two–bedroom apartment with all the money she had
After getting off the car, the property sales led Samantha and Ryland to see the house.

kyk was very excited as he looked around the house.

Although the place was not as big as the mansion of the Johansson family and not as luxurious as the Johansson residence, when he imagined this would be his and Samantha’s home in the future, he was overjoyed.
“Kiddo, are you satisfied?”
“Yes, yes, I’m satisfied. Ryland blinked and asked, “Mommy, are we moving here right away?”
“We’ll move here when the formalities are completed.”
“But… What if Great–Granddad doesn’t allow us to?”
In response, Samantha curved her lips into a smile. “I have my plan.”
Isaac, who followed behind the two quietly, arrived downstairs, stared at the elevator, and remembered the floor number. Then, he called Francis.
Soon, a couple of days passed.
Elise came first in a piano competition again.
Her performance got praised by Jovani, a piano virtuoso.
There were rumors that Jovani liked Elise and might take the latter in as his last mentee
Jovani was in his fifties and an internationally renowned piano virtuoso. He won a variety of awards.
In the piano world, he was one of the top figures in Clusia.
His existence meant more than just a big shot in the piano world. It represented the honor of the whole country.
Both the business and political circles had to show him respect.
However, he had a strange temper, never accepted someone as a mentee, and didn’t like to get involved in events.
It was said that he made an exception to be a judge of this piano competition because he wanted to choose a here to inherit his mantle.
mentee f
from
After all, he was in his fifties. If he didn’t accept a mentee now, he would run out of energy to teach his mentee soon.
Elise was praised by him in the piano competition and won first place this time.
Besides, Elise was a famous piano virtuoso in Elstunda and came from the Johansson family.
The meaning was self–evident.
Tomorrow was Elise’s birthday. After discussing with Alec, Lucille decided to throw Elise a big party.
It was not only a celebration for Elise but also to create momentum for the Johansson family.
The clothing business of the Johansson family was transforming into an e–commerce platform. This publicity opportunity came just in time.
Elise had done an excellent job this time.
Once again, she made Alec look at her and the third branch of the family.
This time, she wouldn’t let Samantha off so easily.
Had been suppressing her anger for too long and could no longer hold back.
