I had talked to Rose about Trinity getting injured for my sake before. She had been quite concerned about the matter in the past few days.
As soon as I finished telling her about the Huffman family's actions, she didn't express much surprise. Instead, she told me, "This is the Huffman family's way of doing things." "However, I always feel an unease. After all, the Huffman family is different from others," I said openly.

I'm always worried that they want to useto get close to the Beringer family and Atlas." I voiced my concerns because Atlas had remindedto speak openly and honestly with Rose. I understood what Atlas meant. Sincerity was what made one likable.
"It's not impossible. Anson and I have been friends for a long time, but we each do our own thing. We don't cross paths, but we're always nearby. You need to maintain this balance, and then it won't be a problem." Rose seemed quite calm about the situation.
"In Foswood, the Beringer family, the Huffman family, the Attawood family, and the Sunny family each dominate their own territory. Currently, the Beringer family is leading the way." "The Sunny family?" I asked in confusion.
I had never heard about the Sunny family.
"Yes, the Sunny family. In recent years, the Sunny family has been on the decline, both in business and reputation. The rising stars in the business world have overshadowed them. It's normal that you don't know," Rose explained. "And the two sons of the Sunny family have immigrated, so now the Sunny family is relatively unknown." "Oh, Grandma, do you think what the Huffman family is doing will affect the Beringer family?" I looked at Rose anxiously. "I don't want to bring unnecessary trouble." "You're taking this too seriously. It will be fine as long as you maintain a balance and don't bectheir puppet or have any substantial transactions. This way, it won't affect you or the Beringer family." Rose dismissed my worries.
Of course, I understood the meaning behind Rose's words, especially the word "puppet." "Grandma, I'll remember your advice and won't let myself be used." "I trust you. After all, you prioritize everything with the Beringer family. Otherwise, you wouldn't have chere to report tofirst. This shows that you still prioritize the big picture. I knew I had a good judge of character." "Grandma, my actions are not about excluding the Huffman family. After all, the Huffman family's business and influence are on the periphery So, I'll be cautious, and it benefits everyone. What I'm most worried about is accidentally getting manipulated by others." I was speaking the truth, genuinely concerned. I feared unknowingly stepping into their trap, makingthink more than necessary.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"You're right. Everyone has their shining points, and everything's existence has its reason. Therefore, you don't have to be too nervous. It will be counterproductive. It maint make others think you're insincere. Things are also prioritized by their importance and urgency. Despite what others think, you have your principles to stick to." Rose helpedfind answers and know what to do. Suddenly, I felt relieved.
Atlas arrived on time, and the two of us had dinner with Rose. She was naturally happy, bustling around.
Hearing that we had moved to Pleca Park, she said joyfully, "They say Pleca Park is magnificent. I should cand stay for a few days sometimes." "Well, why don't you cwith us now?" I quickly suggested.
I"There's an event tomorrow. How about the day after tomorrow? It's perfect because it's the weekend, and you don't need to bring Ava over. I cby myself." Rose didn't hesitate, but when it cto Ava, she wouldn't delay even a day. After dinner, Rose talked to Atlas about business for a while, and then we went back to Pleca Park.
From afar, I could see Ava and Jenny playing in the yard. My parents were sitting in the nearby courtyard, watching them play. The scene was truly heartwarming.
I couldn't help but think, if Atlas's parents were also here, living in this grand mansion, how wonderful it would be. Unfortunately, there were always regrets that could not be filled.
