Chapter 233 He’s Getting Engaged to Someone Else?
As he struggled, Jordan’s drawing board dropped to the ground with a loud crash.
“Ah…” Leaning on Alexander’s shoulder, the little boy let out huge sobs, attracting the sympathy of the servants in the courtyard.
As she couldn’t bear it any longer, Hannah plucked up her courage and quickly ran over to block Alexander’s path.
“Where are you bringing Jordan?”
The crisp voice sounded from the mouth of a thirteen-year-old girl. Her bravery was certainly praise-worthy.
Alexander shot her a look. “Move aside.”
Hannah gritted her teeth. “I’m your aunt.”

Upon hearing this, Hannah immediately lost her courage and stepped aside while mumbling, “I was just joking. You can carry on your way. I was joking.”

“Huh? Didn’t they introduce Miss Hunter to their friends and family already?”
“Didn’t a lot of bad things befall the Hunters recently? Besides, it seems like the young master has broken up with Miss Hunter. Also, didn’t you hear? Old Master Duncan has handed the company over to Young Master James. If Young Master Alexander doesn’t marry Miss Lewis, what would happen to his career?”
