"What a shame for such beautiful stone lions."
July Quinn gently patted the stone lion, then switched to another topic.
"Didn’t you say there were lots of fun things here? How come I haven’t seen any?"
Back then, Victor Hawthorne had exaggerated the fun activities at Stillwater Villa when inviting July Quinn.
"We’re not there yet, all the fun stuff is at the back hill. How about we head over now? After we finish, you can still enjoy the hot spring for a bit."
"Wow, there’s a hot spring. Let’s go quickly, so we can return early and soak in the hot spring!"
Compared to those physical activities, Shelly Cole preferred the leisure of soaking in a hot spring.
But just as they were getting ready to set off, many people who had just participated in the ribbon-cutting at the foot of the mountain arrived at the hotel on the summit.
Among them, besides Victor Hawthorne’s pressure-inducing older cousin, were also the vice president and his entourage.
Particularly, Kyle Keaton directly asked upon seeing them, "Where are you going?"
His gaze was solely focused on July Quinn, as if wanting to continue their previous conversation.
July, on the other hand, ignored Kyle Keaton, as she had only wanted to help Victor and didn’t actually want to discuss potentially unpleasant matters with Kyle.
July Quinn’s delayed response to Kyle Keaton made the atmosphere suddenly tense.
Fearing the situation would become unmanageable, Victor Hawthorne reluctantly answered for July.
"We’re going to the back hill to enjoy some entertainment, would you, Cousin, like to join us?"
Victor had asked instinctively, thinking his cousin wouldn’t go.
After all, he was the busy head of the Keaton Family, earning six figures every minute.
How could such a person waste time playing with these idle young adults?
But reality slapped him hard.
Because his busy cousin responded, "Sure, let’s go together."
Victor Hawthorne: "..."
No way, he just casually asked, and his cousin actually agreed? The rightful source is NoveI-Fire.ɴet
With such a significant figure present, how could their group have any fun?
What Victor Hawthorne didn’t expect was that right after Kyle Keaton’s words, Roman Kidd also spoke up, "Can we join too?"
Victor Hawthorne: "..."
He no longer knew how to play this out.
But then, his mother urged him, "Victor, the vice president wants to play too, aren’t you going to get moving?"
Victor Hawthorne gave his mother a deep, meaningful look.
If he truly wasn’t their biological child, they should have just focused on using another account, rather than making him accompany a bunch of bigshots while his heart was close to stopping from the excitement.
But with so many people watching, Victor Hawthorne didn’t dare leave the group of bigshots just hanging, so he forced a smile:
"Your Excellency, Cousin, please follow me this way."
Seeing Kyle Keaton and Roman Kidd join the outing, the others from the ribbon-cutting certainly wouldn’t leave.
After all, they attended today to expand their networks.
Having a rare chance to interact closely with Lord Keaton and the vice president, how could they miss such an opportunity?
Thus, what started as a playdate for Victor Hawthorne and his classmates suddenly turned into a massive troop.
A large group of people magnificently started walking toward the back hill...
