Chapter 1899

After saying goodbye to his nieces and nephews, Balfour cast a stern gaze upon his wayward younger brother. He

gave him a stern talking-to, urging him to not cause any trouble for Ellinor and Theo, and to behave himself.

Byran shrugged, rolling his eyes impatiently. “Enough, bro. I get it. I’m not a toddler anymore. Could you give me a

break, especially in front of my

fiancée?”

Balfour ignored him, instead turning to Ida, nodding at her. “Take care of him while you’re traveling.”

Ida nodded in response, not saying much.

Finally, Balfour embraced his mother, whom he hadn’t seen in a long time. He gently reminded her to stay safe, to

take care of her health, and to call him if she got tired so he could pick her up from the airport.

Marlinie looked at her son with tear-filled eyes, nodding. She also told him to not work too hard and to stay safe on

his way back.

Balfour, ever the obedient son, nodded at each piece of advice.

Just before they left, Balfour gave his father, McNeil, a serious look. His voice was low and stern, carrying a hint of

warning. “If you lose mom and Ida this time, won’t let you off the hook.”

McNeil smiled at his son. “I won’t. You can count on it.”

Balfour waved them off as they passed through the boarding gate. He didn’t turn to leave until they were out of

sight.

The parting was brief, but for some reason, it left him with a bitter-sweet feeling.

Quinton, his assistant, approached him. “Sir, your grandparents want you to come back home. They said there’s a

guest.”

A guest?

Who would visit on a day like this?

Balfour found it strange, but didn’t question Quinton. He knew Quinton wouldn’t know much anyway. He got into his

car and instructed his driver to take him home.

Upon arriving at the Howard Mansion, Balfour saw an unfamiliar car parked in the driveway.

A guest had really come?

He entered the house, hearing the sound of laughter coming from the living room. The atmosphere seemed lively.

“Balfour is back!”

Upon hearing this, everyone turned to look at Balfour, who had just entered the room.

As a mature man, handsome and charming, every step he took was elegant and gentlemanly.

Alyssa Howard quickly motioned for her grandson to come over. “Balfour, come meet the guests. This is Felix and

his wife Emily, and this is their daughter, Alexa. Come say hello!”

Balfour nodded at Felix and Emily, calling them by their names in a polite manner. Then he turned his indifferent

gaze to the girl named Alexa.

Suddenly, it hit him why his grandparents were so eager for him to come home.

They were setting him up on a blind date!

His grandparents were at it again, finding potential partners for him!

He had no intention of considering personal matters at the moment. He simply didn’t have the time or the energy

for it!
