Geng Anli chimed in. “I’ve always liked Switzerland very much. I’ve been there several times over the past few years. Every time I go there and call Tom, wanting to visit his house, he rejects me. Toward the end, he just stopped answering his phone. Tom, I must visit your castle next year.”

Now that Chairman Rong and Madam Geng had spoken in favor, the other family representatives also voiced their agreement.

“Yes, Tom. I was there when you told Mr. Steele about inviting us.”

“That’s right. You said it yourself. How could you forget?”

Tom Schmid looked like he was in a dilemma. He did not expect to encounter such a situation today.

Charleston smiled. “All of the families want to visit your place. Are you going to reject us?”

Tom gritted his teeth and forced a smile. “All right, then. I’ll agree to this for now.”

Soon, the meeting ended.

Tom walked over to Charleston.

Tom smiled. “Mr. Steele, I wonder if you are free tonight? I would like to go to your place for tea and catch up with you.”

Tom Schmid wanted to come!

Almost immediately, Jesse and Jordan both felt that this was not a good thing! After all, Lota was in the Steele family’s house.

Still, the Schmids must have known this already.

Charleston was already 79 and had seen it all. He was not afraid of Tom Schmid so he said, “Sure, I’ll be waiting!”

“See you then.”

Tom left quickly.

“Grandpa, I don’t think we should let Tom visit us! I already said not to get involved in Lota’s family matters. Why should we get tangled up in some messy situation because of an outsider?” Jesse quietly complained to Charleston.

Jordan said, “Jesse, if you’re afraid, you can stay somewhere else once the sky turns dark. Grandpa and I aren’t afraid of that guy.”
