"Alright!" Lilith said gloomily. "Avery's kids are all so brilliant, and whenever I think about the difference between Harry and them, I would doubt whether Elliot and I are even related. I've pretty much let go of that now. Every kid is different, so maybe Harrod will only start to shine later in life.""Even if he doesn't turn out the way you want him to, you shouldn't feel frustrated about it either. Everyone wants their kids to be successful, but we are all still human. You succeed as a parent as long as your child has great manners and health," said Avery. Shea nodded in agreement."Fine. I will just leave him be for a while." Lilith set her burden aside."You can't exactly just let him run free either. You need to have some rules. You can't push too hard, nor can you give him too much freedom... There's a trick to these things..." Avery said.Lilith's head started to hurt from all the information."If you are getting tired, leave Harrod to Ben. Don't worry. I'm sure Ben kn

At half past nine, they set off the fireworks in the yard. Instantly, the darkness was illuminated by dazzling colors, and everyone came out to watch the fireworks and take pictures.The fireworks were so bright and breathtaking that Ivy could not help but shed tears at the sight.She recalled fragments of her past and distinctively remembered the year when her grandmother had taken her to the city center so that she could watch a grand fireworks display. During the show, her grandmother's wallet had been stolen, and they did not have the money to take the bus back. On that cold night, it had taken them nearly three hours to walk home. Many of Ivy's memories were filled with icy coldness and poverty, and though she rarely looked back, these memories would still occasionally rush back to her.Midnight arrived, marking the beginning of a new year.They had finished setting off their fireworks just as their neighbor began setting off theirs. The sound of successive fireworks a

"What about Harrod?""We have enough people to play the game so we don't need him! Haha! He is just a kid. Let him play on his own!" Tiffany said mercilessly.They had a few snacks and went to sleep.On Ivy's way back to her room, she glanced into the poker room.Lilith spotted her and said, "Welcome home, Ivy. How was work today?""Great. Aunt Lilith, are you hungry? I brought you guys some snacks." Ivy set the snacks she brought aside."Hurry to bed, Ivy! We will be going to bed soon as well." Avery smiled gently at Ivy."Okay. I will go to sleep now." Ivy returned to her room.Oddly, she did not feel tired at all despite waking up early that morning and not taking a nap that afternoon.She lay awake in bed, daydreaming, when she realized why she could not sleep. She reached for her phone. She had yet to send a message to Lucas[Mr. Lucas, it's New Year's here in Aryadelle. I spent a wonderful and unforgettable night surrounded by family and friends. They all love me, and

"Yeah! He is rich and likes to keep a low profile, just like his dad," another guest commented as he took out a gold bar from the gift bag.Shelly was instantly blinded by the gold bar and wondered, "Is that what gifts between rich people look like?! They just give each other cars and gold bars?!"She thought about how her family lived in poverty when her mother fell sick, and she was overwhelmed by bitterness"I wonder what kind of woman he likes! I asked his parents about it and wanted to set him up with girls a few times, but he just won't accept it. His parents said that they can't control him!""Of course, they can't. Hayden is just as accomplished as his dad! A man that brilliant couldn't possibly be a mama's boy.""Layla is getting married now, and Hayden too should be starting on his family. My daughter is head over heels for Hayden. It is a shame that Hayden will never be interested in her.""Haha! Everyone loves Hayden! He is young, successful, and rich. He inherited hi

"It's a shame that there's no internet here. You won't be able to send me the photos!" Shelly sighed."There's internet here! Don't you know about the private internet network?" The little girl pulled Shelly to a specific area and said, "Just scan this code and you will be able to connect to the private network."Shelly was instantly impressed but did not understand why the venue would block the internet, only to set up a private network for the guests."Is there something unique about this private network?" she thought but did not ask the little girl about it.The little girl was unlikely to know the answer and asking such questions would only draw attention to herself. As a safety measure, Shelly did not connect to the private network and said, "Does your smartwatch have Bluetooth? Do you know what that is?""Of course! Both my parents have Bluetooth AirPods!"Shelly blushed at how knowledgeable the little girl was and repeated her question, "So does your smartwatch has Bluet
