Eleanor Sterling and Estelle Sterling are in the living room.
Old Madam Faulkner had just asked her to wait here, saying the room would be tidied up soon.
After giving instructions, she secretly pulled Old Master Faulkner upstairs, and the two of them hid in the study.
Old Master Faulkner sat down and asked, "Old lady, why did you drag me up here?"
"I was thinking about which room to assign Eleanor Sterling to."
"What’s there to hesitate about? There are so many guest rooms, just put her in one randomly!"
Old Master Faulkner was still a bit upset; Eleanor Sterling was not his preferred choice for a granddaughter-in-law.
"I know, let’s put her in Alaric’s room!" Old Madam Faulkner looked cunning and smiled mischievously.
"Are you crazy? What nonsense is this!" Old Master Faulkner’s face instantly darkened.
The more he thought about it, the more he felt his wife’s actions were inappropriate. He fumed, "Do you really want Alaric to marry her?" ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ꜰʀᴏᴍ NoveI[F]ire.net
Old Madam Faulkner was agitated and replied discontentedly, "Hmph! How am I being nonsensical? Don’t you know what kind of person your grandson is?"
She glared at Old Master Faulkner, "For so many years, has he ever approached a woman unless it was Faye Sterling... Do you really want him to marry that Faye Sterling woman?
All the wealthy daughters you’ve chosen, Alaric hasn’t been interested in a single one. The only connections he’s had are with Faye Sterling and Eleanor Sterling.
I don’t like Faye Sterling; I will absolutely not allow her in our Faulkner Family. Do you want Alaric to be lonely all his life?"
Seeing his wife about to get angry, Old Master Faulkner could only sigh helplessly, "Fine, arrange it as you see fit, I won’t interfere!"
His expression grew solemn, thoughtful, though it wasn’t that he couldn’t accept Eleanor Sterling; it just required her to pass his scrutiny.
Downstairs, in the living room.
A servant politely said to Eleanor Sterling, "Miss Sterling, your room is ready. You can follow me upstairs now."
Eleanor Sterling nodded and stood up, "Alright, thank you."
She followed the servant upstairs.
After entering the room, Eleanor Sterling was a bit surprised.
Is this a guest room in the Faulkner Family? Isn’t it a bit too luxurious? Moreover, the décor’s color scheme leans cool, giving it a masculine vibe.
Following behind Eleanor Sterling, Estelle Sterling grinned seeing her being led to Alaric Faulkner’s room.
He didn’t expect his great-grandmother to be so insightful.
She directly arranged for Eleanor to be placed in Alaric Faulkner’s room!
Eleanor Sterling casually placed her things aside and said to Estelle Sterling, "Little Star, I’m going to rest for a bit; wake me if you need anything."
She hadn’t slept well these past few days staying up with Estelle Sterling and was feeling a bit tired.
Estelle Sterling nodded eagerly, "Okay, Sister Eleanor, rest well then, I’m off."
He exited and thoughtfully closed the door for Eleanor Sterling.
Eleanor Sterling lifted the quilt and lay down, her brow slightly furrowing.
Why does she feel Alaric Faulkner’s presence?
She quickly dismissed the thought, perhaps she was overthinking it.
Unexpectedly, in the Faulkner Family, she found herself getting paranoid. Eleanor Sterling chuckled and then closed her eyes, soon drifting off to sleep.
Five minutes later, Alaric Faulkner returned.
After hearing that Estelle Sterling and Eleanor Sterling had been taken by Old Madam Faulkner, he promptly arranged for Caleb Faulkner’s discharge and hastily brought him home as well.
When he saw Eleanor Sterling sleeping in his bed, a hint of surprise flashed in Alaric Faulkner’s eyes.
Lying in his exclusive territory, Eleanor Sterling’s dark hair spread over the pillow, long lashes covering her eyes, looking like an enchanting fairy.
Alaric Faulkner was momentarily stunned, then he slowly smiled, picked up a towel and other items, and entered the bathroom.
Soon, the sound of running water could be heard...
