His Eagle Eyes on Me novel Chapter 2601

"Is that so? I'm not very sure about that. The butler was the one who hired her grandmother. Back then, one of the helpers in the kitchen had quit, and we were lacking staff, so the butler hired her. The butler told me that although her grandmother was a little older, she worked fast, and she could endure hardship so he hired her to try her out," Mr. Woods said.

"So, you don't know anything about their background."

"She was only a helper in the kitchen. I don't need to buy insurance for her anyway…" Mr. Woods said distractedly.

"Weren't you afraid that she has problems?" Lucas deliberately tried to scare Mr. Woods.

Mr. Woods' expression turned serious. "Lucas, what problems could they have? Don't scare me. I really don't know anything about them. Irene's grandmother spent most of her time in the kitchen, and I usually don't interact with her. If it were not for your stepmother who insisted on getting Irene to care for you, I wouldn't have interacted with Irene too…"

"I'm joking. What problems could they have? They are just two poor people!" Lucas saw that his father did not know anything, so he ended the topic. "When I leave, please pay her salary. If you could give her more money, you could see this as good charity work."

Mr. Woods was speechless.

When Irene returned to her room, she felt as though she was falling apart. She returned to her room and placed her bag down. She lay in bed.

The more she knew, the heavier her heart felt. She was suddenly very lost. She did not know what to do.

After her exams, should she go to Ylore? Should she go to Aryadelle?

If Elliot found out about her, would he try to kill her? She suddenly grew truly afraid.

If only grandmother was still alive. At least, she would not be so lonely and lost.

In Aryadelle, after Layla had spoken to Andrew a few times, she told him her feelings.

"I think I quite like you," Layla said.

Andrew was surprised. "Is that so? I'm delighted because I like you a lot, too. Initially, I was only attracted by your looks, but after having fun with you for a few days, I realized that I like your character a lot, too."

"Don't look like you have found out a huge secret. I don't even know what type of men I like. I like mature men, but I also like innocent men! As long as they are handsome and treat me well, I will like them," Layla said with a smile.

"Liking them is one thing, but whether you want to marry them is the most important thing." Andrew hit the nail right on the head.

"Okay, then. When are you planning to return? Or are you still planning to stay in Aryadelle for a while longer? If you're planning to continue traveling Aryadelle, you can call me anytime."

"I just came out. I won't return home for the time being. You are going to meet the other matchmaking candidates next, right? I sure want to join in on the party," Andrew chuckled.

"You can join in, but you have to listen to me."

"Sure!"

After they finished discussing matters, Layla sent a message to her mother, [Mom, why is it so hard finding a partner? I don't like young ones. I really don’t.]
