Greg Jensen looked at her silly and cute appearance, unable to cry or laugh as he said, “Even if there could have been poison, you drank it anyway.”

“So… was there really poison in it or not?”

“No poison, rest assured, if I were to use poison, I wouldn’t let you see it, would

I?”

“Oh, oh, you scared me to death.”

Clara Adams patted her small chest, looking genuinely frightened afterward.

Greg Jensen felt both amused and annoyed, thinking to herself that she was silly for being scared, but then not silly because she willingly drank something from a stranger without hesitation.

She didn’t even ask what he had put inside.

This was the first time Greg Jensen had seen such a naive girl, not a single trace of scheming, really wondering how she managed to survive in this world.

“How can your boss be at ease with you alone in the store? Isn’t he afraid you’ll be cheated?”

“Cheated? I’m not easy to fool.”

Clara Adams earnestly explained, “I studied jewelry identification in college, I can tell if something is good or bad at a glance.”

“Oh? Then you’re quite impressive.”

“Hehe, just average.”

Clara modestly laughed, her eyes revealing a sense of pride.

Greg Jensen said with a smile, “Let’s exchange phone numbers. I’ll look for you when I want to buy jade stone in the future.”

“Sure.”

Clara Adams excitedly took out her phone and exchanged contact information with Greg Jensen.

“Alright then, I’ll be leaving now.”

“Mm-hmm, Mr. Jensen, take care.”

Clara Adams saw Greg Jensen to the door and waited until he disappeared from her sight before running back into the store and started checking his social network.

“So his name is Greg Jensen…”

Thinking of Greg Jensen’s overbearing appearance, a happy smile appeared on her face.

After leaving the Jade Shop, Greg Jensen drove to the fruit and vegetable supermarket, then headed to the Reverie Inn after meeting with Lois Abbott.

Coincidentally, the place where Norman Holmes was hosting the full moon celebration was precisely the Reverie Inn.

However, considering Norman Holmes’ status and the standing of Reverie Inn in the culinary world, Greg Jensen felt at ease.

” Hey, do you think we should open another hotel?”

“Another hotel? Sure.”

Lois Abbott’s eyes lit up, but then dimmed as she sighed, “Opening a hotel isn’t easy, we don’t have the funds for that right now.”

Greg Jensen laughed, “No hurry, let’s plan it out. The fruit and vegetable supermarket is doing so well, it won’t be long until we can recoup the investment.”

“Alright. But if we’re going to open another one, we’d have to look to other counties. Riverhaven County is only so big, one hotel is enough.”

“Yeah, if we’re only running a hotel without guest rooms, we could actually try

it out in the city.”

Lois Abbott paused for a moment, then said thoughtfully, “The necessary funds to go into the city aren’t a small amount.”

Greg Jensen laughed, “Don’t worry, the herbal fields are about to be harvested soon, and then we’ll have enough money to open the hotel.”

“Great, should I take a look at the city when I’m free?”

“Yeah, go have a look. I also need to return to the village to finalize the harvest details.”

Greg Jensen stopped the car and walked into the Reverie Inn with Lois Abbott. The lobby manager hurriedly greeted them, “General Manager Greg, General Manager Lois…”

“Has General Manager Holmes arrived?” Greg Jensen asked.

The lobby manager responded, “He’s already here, and per your instructions, we’ve prepared room 888. The cake has also been ordered and will be delivered shortly.”

“Alright, notify me when it’s time.”

“Will do.”

Norman Holmes’ daughter’s full moon celebration had already been held once in his hometown, and this time it was mainly for inviting some wealthy individuals from Riverhaven County and a few capable subordinates.

Greg Jensen walked in while these people were gathered around amusing the child.

Bryce Cooke saw him, his expression immediately tensed up, his eyes full of pleading, hoping he wouldn’t mention what had just happened.

Greg Jensen couldn’t be bothered with him and walked straight inside.

“Mr. Jensen, please come in.”

“Hello, Mr. Jensen…”

Norman Holmes quickly came up to meet him, and the other tycoons also

greeted him.

Greg Jensen said with a smile, “I’ll go see the child first.”

“No problem.”

Norman Holmes hurriedly beckoned, “Wife, bring the child over.”

Jaylene River came over with a smile, holding the child, and said, “Would Mr. Jensen like to hold her?”

“I… I’d better not.”

Greg Jensen graciously declined; he had not held a baby before, and if there were any mishap, that would cause great trouble.

The girl was very pretty, with fair skin and lively big eyes that chuckled when she saw Greg Jensen.

“Alt, she smiled; the child must have a connection with Mr. Jensen.”

“Haha, I give this to her, hoping she will grow up healthy.”

As he spoke, Greg Jensen took out the carved Heart Clearing Symbol and placed it on the child’s chest.

The little girl was very spirited, immediately hugging the Heart Clearing Symbol, holding it up in front of her to examine.

Seeing his daughter’s happy appearance, Norman Holmes grinned widely and said, “Why don’t you thank Mr. Jensen now?”

Jaylene River gave him a look and huffed, “Are you stupid? She’s so young, she can’t speak yet.”

“Oh, hehe…” Norman Holmes laughed foolishly.

Jaylene River glared at him again and turned to smile, “Mr. Jensen, thank you.” “Don’t mention it, I’ll get her a Jade Pendant in a few years,” Greg Jensen said with a smile.

He had originally wanted to make an Amulet, but with his current capability, he really couldn’t manage it.

He would have to wait until his cultivation was sufficient to carve a new Jade Pendant.

“Let’s not stand around; please, take a seat, I’ll have them start serving the dishes.”

“Right away.”

Everyone sat down at the table with laughter and chatter, and the atmosphere was very lively.

Soon, exquisite dishes were served continuously, and at Norman Holmes’s call, everyone began to eat.

After a few bites, Norman Holmes took the initiative to raise his glass in a serious manner, “This one I’ll drink to Mr. Jensen first, without him, I…” “Just drink, let’s not bring up the past,” Greg Jensen said with a smile.

“Alright, I’ll drink to that, and you can do as you please.”

Norman Holmes didn’t say a second word, and downed his drink in one gulp.

Greg Jensen also raised his glass and took a sip.

Afterward, Norman Holmes toasted everyone else, and everyone presented their blessings. The atmosphere in the room soared to a climax.

Just then, the door to the private room was suddenly pushed open, and a gaunt middle-aged man walked in.

Seeing this person, Norman Holmes’s face turned grave, and he frowned, but he didn’t speak, just his eyes conveying a chilling aura.

“Kenny Walker? What are you doing here? I didn’t invite you!” Bryce Cooke, Bobby Prince, and the others all stood up, glaring angrily at Kenny Walker.

The private room immediately fell silent, everyone’s eyes on Kenny Walker, who, however, ignored them all and walked straight to Norman Holmes.

With a smirk on his face, he said, “Little brother, it’s your daughter’s one- month celebration, how could you not give me a call?”

Norman Holmes, looking at that hypocritical face, felt waves of disgust inside, and said with a cold face, “Call you for what? To have your sister-in-law run into my wife again?”

Kenny Walker’s eyes narrowed slightly as he silently regarded Norman Holmes. Wayne Cooper, from behind, said angrily, “Norman, Mr. Walker coming here is giving you face, don’t be ungrateful!”
