After entering the room, Old Master Faulkner looked up at Mrs. Faulkner, "Well? That woman should be as unbearable as the rumors say, right?
I’ve always said, we should choose one of those noble young ladies I picked..."
Before he could finish his sentence, Mrs. Faulkner shot him a glare.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Eleanor Sterling is very nice."
"What’s so nice about her?" Old Master Faulkner snorted, still a bit discontented.
He had also investigated Eleanor Sterling’s background.
Having formed a preconceived notion, Old Master Faulkner naturally had nothing good to say about Eleanor Sterling.
Mrs. Faulkner looked at Old Master Faulkner and said, "It’s something you can only sense, not articulate. I’ve accepted this granddaughter-in-law."
"You! Old woman, think this through, I’m planning for Alaric to inherit the Faulkner Family in the future.
The woman beside him affects the entire Faulkner lineage, it’s a lifelong matter."
If any other member of the Faulkner family had brought Eleanor Sterling home today, he wouldn’t have had any opinion, he wouldn’t even spare a second glance.
But Alaric Faulkner is different, he places high hopes on him and doesn’t want any uncertain risk factors around.
When the Faulkner family was on par with the four major families of Aethelgard, after he took over the family, he sought breakthroughs, which ultimately led to the decision he made.
To send his son away as if being knighted to his fiefdom.
Though the decision was crazy, it expanded the Faulkner family’s domain, catapulting them to the top among the major families within ten years.
Now that the Faulkner Group is stable, and he has aged, the Faulkner Group in Aethelgard needs someone to hold the fort.
His choice is Alaric Faulkner.
Mrs. Faulkner chuckled, "Precisely because it’s a lifelong matter that I’ve decided to let Alaric follow his heart.
He suffered too much as a child because of Gordon, isn’t that enough?
All because of your poor decisions. Is a marriage alliance really that beneficial?
Otherwise, Gordon wouldn’t have married that woman just to secure his position."
Speaking of Mrs. Faulkner, she scoffed slightly.
Old Master Faulkner fell silent for a moment.
"You disdain Gordon’s wife for being from a small town, too petty for the big stage, but didn’t Eleanor Sterling also come from there?
And she’s bringing a child, how can she be a match for Alaric?"
Mrs. Faulkner burst into laughter, "That’s why I enrolled Eleanor Sterling in Aethelgard College of Medicine, let her study and then come out."
"Can she even get in?" Old Master Faulkner snorted, his tone clearly laced with disdain.
"Capable people carry an aura that ordinary people can’t help but notice, maybe she’ll surprise us. Just wait and see."
Old Master Faulkner continued, "Only by relying on her own abilities can she be impressive. If Alaric helps her, what’s the point?"
"Don’t worry, I’ve already instructed Alaric not to intervene, and the college doesn’t know her identity, she can only rely on her own strength to get in."
Upon hearing this, Old Master Faulkner finally had nothing to say.
After a long pause, he snorted lightly, "Let her graduate from medical school first, then we’ll see."
Mrs. Faulkner let out a little laugh, knowing she made the right move with this decision. Latest content published on ⓝovelFire.net
Eleanor Sterling crossed her arms, looking displeased at Alaric Faulkner, "Hey, why did you agree on my behalf just now?"
Alaric Faulkner led her to the table, sat down in a chair, and trapped her between his legs and the table.
Eleanor’s mind was in chaos, paying no attention to the intimate and ambiguous posture they were in.
"Why aren’t you speaking?"
She glared at Alaric Faulkner with discontent.
Alaric Faulkner curled his lips into a smile.
"When the wife lectures me, how can I refute? Naturally, I listen obediently."
