“Vance, what are you even talking about? Daniel coming home to be with Grandpa will make him happy, and he might even get better. It’sÂ
called being filial. How did you twist it into something evil?*Â
Veda didn’t like Vance’s family, and now that he was badmouthing her, she wasn’t having it. She shot back immediately.Â
Vance started to say something else.Â
“Enough!”Â
Daniel’s icy gaze swept over everyone.Â
“I’ve said what needed to be said. From now on, you’d better behave, and I mean everyone. Grandpa should be waking up soon.”Â
With that, Daniel left the room, not caring about the reactions of those present.Â
Since Daniel had spoken, the others were somewhat intimidated and didn’t dare say anything more. They followed him to Mason’sÂ
hospital room.Â
At that moment, Mason indeed woke up.Â
Hearing the commotion, he looked towards the door and saw Daniel and the group behind him.Â
As people age, they long for the company of their descendants, and Mason’s mood visibly improved.Â
“Grandpa, how are you feeling?”Â
“Grandpa, are you okay?”Â
Veda and Raina quickly asked.Â
“I’m fine, just a minor illness. Look at how scared you all are. I haven’t been exercising enough lately, and a little setback makes you allÂ
worry so much!”Â
Mason’s words were reproachful, but his eyes were full of affection as he looked at his grandchildren.Â
Veda, always the one to act coquettishly, said, ‘Grandpa, we’re just worried about you. How can you blame us? I’ll be heartbroken.”Â
“I’m not blaming you, not at all. I know you’re the most sensible one!” Mason smiled and quickly comforted her.Â
Veda seized the opportunity, “Grandpa, you have no idea. Daniel was so worried about you that he decided to move back home. The houseÂ
will be lively again. Isn’t that great?‘Â

She knew that Mason valued Daniel the most, so mentioning this made Mason’s smile even more genuine.Â
Even though Mason had already discussed some of Daniel’s plans with him, seeing Veda’s reaction, it was clear she didn’t know that EmilyÂ
would be moving in too.Â
Veda and Emily didn’t get along, and it was uncertain how Veda would react when she found out. Mason couldn’t help but think that VedaÂ
might not be a match for Emily.Â
Emily wasn’t afraid of anyone, not even him.Â
Thinking of this, Mason glanced at Veda with a hint of sympathy, though she didn’t notice.Â
Daniel instructed York to handle Mason’s discharge paperwork. After informing Mason, he left the hospital.Â
Soren and Vance accompanied Mason home. Although they had their doubts about the sudden decision to return home, with Daniel’sÂ
words, they only dared to keep their thoughts to themselves.Â
Veda, reminded by Raina, immediately called Zoey.Â
“Veda, I was just thinking of calling you to go shopping. I didn’t expect you to call me first.”Â
Zoey’s voice was enthusiastic.Â
Veda chuckled, “Shopping is a must, especially since I’m in a great mood. And once I tell you this good news, you’ll be even happier than IÂ
- am.Â
Zoey was instantly intrigued, “What good news? Tell me, I’m dying to know.”Â
Veda couldn’t resist teasing Zoey a bit longer, but when she sensed Zoey’s impatience, she finally spilled the beans. “So, here’s the deal.Â
My grandpa was sick, and Daniel was so worried that he decided to move back home. Zoey, you know what this means, right? You can visitÂ
often and get closer to Daniel. He’ll definitely see how awesome you are.”Â
Zoey tried to play it cool, even though she was thrilled. “That’s great news, Veda. But I’m not just interested in Daniel. How’s Mr. Smith doing? I didn’t know he was sick. I need to visit him once he’s discharged.”Â
Veda saw right through Zoey’s act. “Come on, Zoey. I know you too well. Visiting my grandpa is just an excuse to see Daniel. You don’t have to pretend with me. You like Daniel, right? Don’t worry, I’m on your side. I’ll do everything I can to help you two get together.”Â
Zoey felt a twinge of irritation but managed to keep her cool. Luckily, this was a phone conversation, sparing her from face–to–faceÂ
embarrassment. Veda’s bluntness was something she had learned to tolerate because Veda was useful.Â
Suppressing her annoyance, Zoey replied gratefully, “You’re the best, Veda. Thanks a lot!”Â
“No need to be so formal. Just remember me when you’re Mrs. Daniel Smith and make sure he gives me a bigger allowance!”Â

Meanwhile, Daniel had no idea Veda had been plotting behind his back. After a short rest at home, he was debating whether to call Emily or visit her villa when York came in with news.Â
“Mr. Smith, someone’s been snooping around Ms. Johnson’s villa location again. We traced it back to Knox.”Â
Daniel immediately sat up, his eyes narrowing with a cold, calculating look.Â
A sense of urgency gripped him. He knew Emily had a natural rapport with Knox, almost like they were old friends. But why was Knox investigating her villa? Was he planning to visit her?Â
Daniel’s eyes darkened with resolve. If Knox wanted to find out where Emily lived, let him. Let him discover that Daniel had sold the house to her himself, staking his claim.Â
When Knox arrived and found Emily wasn’t there, it would be like giving hope and then snatching it away.Â
“Don’t stop him. Let him investigate!”Â
York was taken aback. He knew how much Daniel valued Emily and that Knox had feelings for her. He expected Daniel to take action, butÂ
this was unexpected.Â
“Mr. Smith, won’t Knox disturb her if he finds out where she lives?”Â
“He won’t get the chance!”Â
Daniel’s confident smile showed he had everything under control.Â
York opened his mouth to say more, but saw Daniel stand up, signaling the end of the conversation.Â
He would soon understand what Daniel meant.Â
Daniel wanted to see Emily.Â
So, he headed directly to the neighboring villa.Â
Violette, who hadn’t gone to bed yet, heard the noise and quickly opened the door. Seeing Daniel, she felt a mix of respect andÂ
intimidation at his powerful presence.Â
“Daniel, you’re here to see Emily? Violette asked awkwardly as she opened the door wider.Â
Dahiel nodded, “Yeah, I wanted to check on Cloudy and Biscuit and discuss something with Emily.”Â
