“You, always learning bad habits from Spencer Burley.”

“Hey, what does that have to do with me?”

Spencer Burley made a face, muttering, “Man, I’m getting shot even when I’m lying down.”

“Haha…”

Greg Jensen and Adrian Wright exchanged glances and burst into laughter together.

After eating, the three played in the game room for a while before Alfredo Harrison arrived with his secretary.

Compared to his cold demeanor yesterday, he was much friendlier today, taking his time to explain the contract to Greg and introducing him to a renovation team.

Seeing his eagerness, Adrian Wright couldn’t help but look at him suspiciously and asked, “Tell me, Alfredo, this wasn’t a plot to sell the garden to Greg, was it?”

“No… not at all, certainly not. Mr. Jensen is your friend, where would I dare to trick him? If you don’t believe me, ask Mr. Jensen himself.”

Alfredo Harrison’s forehead was drenched in cold sweat as he anxiously turned to look at Greg Jensen.

Greg Jensen smiled and didn’t expose him, instead nodding, “Mm, I have long heard about the mystery of Dreamscape Garden and knew it was Director Zhang’s garden, so I asked to have a look.

This has nothing to do with Director Zhang, so don’t scare him.”

Adrian Wright, upon hearing this, still gave Alfredo Harrison a frosty look and warned, “I’m telling you, you better hope I don’t find out there’s something fishy going on here, or I won’t let you off the hook.”

“Don’t worry, Mr. Wright, I definitely couldn’t.”

Grabbing some paper, Alfredo Harrison wiped his forehead and let out a long sigh of relief.

“Alright, if there’s no problem, let’s sign the contract.”

After reviewing the contract, Greg signed his name on it.

Seeing this, Alfredo Harrison’s face lit up with joy, glad to finally sell that troublesome garden and rid himself of a burden.

More importantly, since Greg didn’t blow his cover, he wouldn’t have to worry about this matter anymore.

At last, a huge weight seemed to have lifted.

In high spirits, Alfredo Harrison took the initiative to handle the transfer paperwork, fervently promising that within three days, he would make sure everything was settled.

With the property matter resolved, Greg was quite pleased and was about to go out for a stroll when Spencer Burley received a call.

“What did you say??”

Spencer hung up and began to run outside, shouting as he went, “My grandma might not make it, I need to go back home first.”

Adrian Wright was also startled, asking urgently, “What happened to grandma?”

“They said she had a fall and urged me to hurry back home.”

” Ai, let Greg go with you!”

Slapping his forehead, Spencer dragged Greg with him, “How could I forget about you, our Divine Doctor? Let’s go quickly…”

“Wait for me, I’m coming too.” Adrian also chased after them from behind.

The three of them got into the car and rushed toward Spencer’s home.

Midway, Greg suddenly came to his senses and asked in wonder, “If your grandma had a fall, shouldn’t she be sent to a hospital? Why did they ask you to come home?”

“Uh…”

Spencer was also taken aback, blurting out uncertainly, “Right, why not to the hospital? Why did they tell me to come home?”

His complexion suddenly changed, and he said anxiously, “Damn it, could it be they want me to go back for a blind date? Stop the car, I want to get off.”

Smack!

Adrian Wright slapped him and cursed, “The hell you’re getting off, what if it’s serious?”

“Impossible, it has to be my grandma trying to rush for a great-grandson, so she set up another blind date for me.”

Face red with distress, Spencer pleaded, “Adrian, my good brother, just let me get out, please.”

“Fine, go ahead, jump out if you will,” grunted Adrian through clenched teeth.

Spencer Burley glanced out the window, and suddenly, deflated like a punctured ball, leaned back in his seat without a word.

Greg Jensen, seeing his demeanour, couldn’t help but crack a smile and laughed, “It’s just a blind date, what are you afraid of?”

Spencer Burley sighed, “Alas, my grandma is confused.”

Adrian Wright snapped, “Shut up, do you talk about your grandmother like that? If you dare talk nonsense again, I’ll cut ties with you.”

Spencer Burley helplessly looked at Greg Jensen and explained, “My grandma has some dementia, the kind that comes and goes, and she’s always thinking about holding her great-grandchild.

The problem is, she still follows the old traditions, thinking a big butt is good for childbearing, and the women she finds for me to meet…”

With that, he sighed again, rubbing his forehead and said, “It’s a long story.”

While talking, the three of them drove to the Burley family villa.

Upon entering the house, they indeed saw an old lady with white hair and a youthful face, energetically sitting on the couch with a walking stick in hand.

On both sides sat two middle-aged women, softly persuading something.

Not far away, there was a serene woman, holding a book in her hands and reading intently.

Seeing this scene, Spencer Burley’s head drooped down immediately, and he stealthily glanced at Greg Jensen as if to say “See, I told you so.”

Greg Jensen too was somewhat baffled by the sight before him.

This family is too unreliable—making jokes about grandma falling down?

When the old lady saw Spencer Burley, her eyes lit up, and smiling she said, “Spencer is back? My good grandson, come sit by grandma.”

“Alt, alright.”

Spencer Burley quickly went over and sat by the old lady, obedient like a well- bred young lady.

“Oh, Adrian is here too, come have a seat.”

The old lady waved at Adrian Wright, but when she saw Greg Jensen, she paused.

“And this gentleman is…?”

“Grandma, this is Greg Jensen, who saved me on Misty Mountain.”

Hearing Spencer Burley’s introduction, all four women in the room turned to look, including the serene lady who was reading.

“Hello, grandma, hello aunts…”

Greg Jensen greeted everyone with a smile, then said to Spencer Burley, “You could at least introduce them.”

“Alt, I nearly forgot, heh.”

Spencer Burley stood up, introducing, “Greg, this is my mom, Annie Stuart, and this is my aunt, Judith Hall.”

Saying this, he pointed to the serene lady and said, “And that lady is the belle of our Burley family, Miss Louisa Burley.”

“Flatterer.”

Louisa Burley glared at her brother with feigned annoyance, and smiling at Greg Jensen, she said, “Please have a seat, Greg. My brother has been mischievous since he was little, always causing trouble.”

“Not at all, we get along very well,” Greg Jensen smiled, a hint of amazement flashing in his eyes.

Louisa Burley was very delicate in appearance, carrying a faint scent of books, giving off the vibe of a well-bred lady.

She was completely different from the likes of Lois Abbott and Lindsey Wolfe.

Even Vince Cooper from last night paled in comparison.

The Burley family was very polite, urging Greg Jensen to sit and engaging in casual conversation while offering fruits and tea.

They chattered away, inquiring about Greg Jensen’s medical experiences.

When they learned he had only treated a few patients, a tinge of disappointment crossed Annie Stuart’s eyes.

Greg Jensen noticed and couldn’t help but ask, “Aunt Annie, were you hoping that I would treat someone?”

“Yes, I did have that in mind, but…”

Annie Stuart hesitated to continue, but Greg Jensen already understood, she was doubting him because of his youth.

Spencer Burley took a bite of his apple and said, “Let me explain, Greg. Actually, the patient is my sister.”
