“Mr. Lloyd Zacharias stepped forward and extended his hand to shake hands
with Richard.
“Mr. Flintstone. Richard reciprocated the handshake. “My daughter has been
quite willful. 1 apologize for any trouble she may have caused you.”
“Not at all. Please come in and have some tea,” Zacharias replied while showing
particular respect toward Richard.
Richard turned his gaze to his daughter and sighed with exasperation before
entering the house. Imogen took a step forward and held onto Shirley. “Shirley,
thank you.”
“Don't mention it,” Shirley replied..
Imogen then asked, “Is it my duty to protect Mr. Flintstone 24/7?"
Shirley nodded. “Yes. Currently, I've been assigned to work in this residence.”
Imogen’s heart leaped with joy when she heard that. So, she was taking over
Shirley's job?
Shirley felt a knot in her stomach as she was afraid to enter the hall. She held
Imogen’s hand and mentally prepared herself because she was about to face her
father’s scolding in front of Zacharias.
“Shirley, let's go inside,” Imogen said to her. It was cold outside, and what was
more, she was very interested in the important figure inside.
After taking a deep breath, Shirley nodded and said, “Alright. Let's go inside.”
She pushed the door open and allowed Imogen to enter first. She was like a child
who had done something wrong as she obediently stood behind her father.
Although there was an age gap between her and Zacharias, his status and
authority were evident, making him and Richard appear equally powerful.
“Mr. Flintstone, Shirley has caused you trouble. It's all my fault. I've spoiled her all
her life,” Richard said as he was filled with self-blame.
Zacharias’ gaze on Shirley held an indulgent and affectionate look as if he was
treating her like his junior.
“Don’t worry about it. Miss Lloyd has been inconvenienced here for so many
days, and I feel guilty about it too,” Zacharias said with a smile.
Even after receiving the call from Richard, he made every effort to keep Shirley
here. However, he knew he couldn't force her to stay. There was no reason for
her to stay anymore.
If Richard wanted to take his daughter with him. he would definitely be able to.
Besides, Zacharias current status made it inconvenient for him to offend the
Lloyd Family.
Moreover, he held great respect for Richard as his elder. Even though he himself
was powerful, he wouldn't dare to be disrespectful to Richard.
“Shirley, why don’t you apologize to Mr. Flintstone sincerely,” Richard said to his
daughter. Shirley exhibited the demeanor of a young girl in front of her father.
She hadn't even apologized yet, but the gentleman had already forgiven her.
“There’s no need to apologize. This was just a minor matter,” Zacharias said with
a smile. Imogen, who was standing by the side, also lowered her head and said
to Zacharias, “Mr. Flintstone, I should apologize to you as well.”
Zacharias finally looked at Imogen and gave a slight nod, indicating that there
was no need to bring up the matter again.
Imogen immediately stepped back. Zacharias’ imposing aura made her cautious
about displaying any emotions.
She also felt that Zacharias treated Shirley with special attention, but of course,
that was likely because of Shirley's identity!
“Dad, when are we leaving?” Shirley asked her father. She hoped to avoid being
scolded in front of Zacharias.
Richard glanced at his daughter and sighed. “Where do you want to go?”
“I want to go back home. I miss Mom,” Shirley said with a smile.
