He felt a little let down when he realized Charlotte wasn’t there.
“Kenneth told me you went through a lot for her,” Robert said, sounding genuinely apologetic. “I really don’t know how to thank you.”
Upstairs, Kenneth’s face changed.
“Kenneth is my friend. Whatever happens with the Gates family, it’s my business too,” Anthony said, smiling calmly. “If there’s ever anything I can do, treat me like family and just ask.”
Roger could only think, Seriously?
Kenneth’s mind spat out, Unbelievable.
Charlotte, watching, thought, He really knows how to win people over.
Robert couldn’t help but laugh, his mood instantly lighter. He genuinely liked Anthony—so polite, so respectful. For once, Kenneth had actually made a good decision.
“Kevin, Samantha.” Anthony greeted them too, dipping his head respectfully.
“Anthony, nice to meet you,” Kevin said, giving his hand a firm shake.
“Welcome, Anthony,” Samantha offered, nodding. But when her eyes landed on the mountain of gifts, confusion flickered in her eyes.
Noticing her expression, Anthony quickly explained, “It’s my first visit. Just a little something to show my respect.”
Samantha was speechless. Clearly, his idea of “a little something” was a bit off.
“You’re too kind, Anthony,” she said with a polite smile. “But these gifts are far too expensive. We can’t accept them.”
