At this moment, the woman who called Connor was called Candace Steadman, a very good friend of Connor’s mother.

When Candace and Connor’s mother were young, they were already close to each other. But later, Connor’s parents got into a car accident, and Connor became an orphan.

After Candace found out about this, she specially went to visit Connor and even took the initiative to adopt him.

However, Connor did not want to be adopted because he knew that Candace had her own family—Candace’s husband was still working in the government and could not earn much money, and the two of them had children. If they adopted Connor, the pressure would be very great.

Moreover, Candace’s husband didn’t agree to this matter, so Connor didn’t go to Rockford where Candace was, instead coming to Porthampton by himself.

Candace had also secretly transferred money to Connor a few times, but because Candace’s husband found out, she did not continue to help Connor.

Connor hadn’t contacted Candace for a long time, but if there was anyone in the world who was sincere to Connor, Candace was definitely one of them.

This was why Connor was so excited when he heard her voice.

“Aunt Candace, why did you come to Porthampton? Where are you now? I’ll pick you up immediately!”

Connor shouted excitedly when he heard that Candace wanted to meet him.

“I’m at Porthampton’s high-speed rail station now. Why don’t you come here to find us?” Candace replied.

“Okay. Why did you suddenly come to Porthampton? Is there something wrong?”

Connor asked in confusion.

“You see, your uncle was transferred from Rockford to Porthampton as part of his job. He’s working in Porthampton now, and our Sadie has also been admitted to your Porthampton University. Isn’t school starting soon? Our family of three bought a house in Porthampton and prepared to settle down in Porthampton in the future!” Candace explained with a smile.

“Then Aunt Candace, you’ll be living in Porthampton from now on?” Connor shouted excitedly after hearing Candace’s words.

“That’s right, we can meet often in the future!”

Candace replied happily.

“That’s great. Aunt Candace, 1’11 go to the high-speed rail station to pick you up now!” Connor quickly said.

“Alright, see you later!”

Candace replied lightly and hung up the phone.

After Connor saw that the phone was hung up, he quickly put on his clothes and washed up before leaving the villa.

At the same time, in the square in front of Porthampton’s high-speed rail station, there were two beautiful women, one tall and one small.

Whether it was their figures or looks, these two beauties could be said to be the best of the best, so they naturally attracted the attention of many people.

The slightly older beauty looked to be in her forties. However, because she often took care of herself, she looked very young. Moreover, her clothes were very stylish—he wore a tight black dress, which accentuated her tall and sexy figure. Her entire body was emitting an irresistible temptation.

As for the younger beauty, she was very pure-looking. She was wearing a white knitted shirt and light blue denim shorts. Her slender and fair legs were exposed to the air without reservation. She was also wearing a pair of high heels. Her exquisite face coupled with her pure and refined temperament gave off an aura of cute charm.

These two beauties were Candace, who had called Connor earlier, and Candace’s daughter, Sadie Colt.

Sadie was frowning at this time, and her expression was very unhappy. She pouted and asked Candace, “Mom, when is that Connor coming over? How long have we been waiting here?”

“I just called Connor. No matter how fast he is, he will only arrive in half an hour!”

Candace had always been a gentle person, so she replied with a smile.

“Another half an hour?!”

After Sadie heard this, her expression seemed to be even more unhappy. She said with a straight face, “I already made an appointment with my friend to go to the internet cafe later, but you had to call me out to wait for someone. I really don’t know what’s the point of meeting him.”

“Why are you so insensible!”

Candace frowned slightly when she heard Sadie’s words. Then, she whispered, “Back then, Connor’s parents were kind to our family. Connor’s father was the one who got your father his job. Now that we’re in Porthampton, we naturally have to meet Connor, right? He doesn’t have any relatives here. How pitiful is it for a child to be all alone?”

“What’s so pitiful about him? Didn’t you transfer money to Connor many times back then? But Connor didn’t even say thank you. I think hes an ingrate…”

Sadie replied.

“Sadie, what nonsense are you talking about? When Connor comes later, you can’t talk nonsense, understand?”

Candace quickly scolded him and then continued, “Originally, you and Connor were already engaged when you were young…”

“What did you say? I’m bethrothed to Connor?”

Sadie was stunned when she heard Candace’s words. Her face was filled with disbelief.

“That’s right. Back then, Connor’s mother and I had already discussed this matter. However, Connor’s parents had an accident and Connor became an orphan,” Candace replied softly.

“Mom, are you really planning to marry me to this Connor? I’m telling you now, 1 don’t want to marry someone 1 don’t even know. Moreover, I heard that Connor is very poor…” Sadie shouted excitedly.

“Of course I don’t have any intention of letting you marry Connor. After all, Connor’s parents are no longer around. I’m the only one who knows about this engagement. If I don’t say anything, no one will know. However, I feel that doing this is a little unfair to Connor. After all, when the McDonald family was doing well, we had an engagement with them. Now that we see they’ve fallen, we changed our minds. This is a little bad…”

Candace blamed herself.

“What’s wrong with that? It’s already the 21st century. How could there be such a thing as a child betrothal?” Sadie pouted as she replied.

Candace sighed helplessly and did not say anything..
