Chapter 121
Cameron said, “By the way, every time your grandpa’s birthday comes around, he gives jewelry to the girls in the family. What would you like?
Tll get something custom–made, Cameron said.
Yanina frowned slightly. She remembered how Carl liked doing that.
However, over the years, all the jewelry Carl gave her was left at the Zamora residence. She didn’t take any with her. Since she was no longer a member of the Zamora family, it would be inappropriate for her to accept gifts this time. Besides, after leaving the Zamora residence, she really didn’t have any opportunity to use that expensive jewelry.
She said. “No, it’s fine. I won’t be needing it. I’ll explain it to him afterward. You can just pick one from what’s already ar home that day.
“Okay” Cameron nodded.
Yanina quite liked the way they got along with now. They talked naturally and didn’t feel embarrassed.
It was dinner time.
Carl and Sherman argued fiercely over the seating arrangement
Carl said. “Yani should sit next to me!”
Sherman said, “Next to me!”
Carl said, “She’s my granddaughter–in–law!”
Sherman looked at Carl strangely. “Yani is just like my granddaughter. She has inherited my skills?”
Yanina said “Mr. Zamora, Mr. Harnett, please stop arguing. How about I sit between you two?”
Yanina reached out to hold their arms and then pulled them down to sit.
The two old men glanced at each other and snorted, but they both followed Yanina’s lead and sat down.
However, what Sherman said about inheriting his skills caught Chuck’s attention.
Chuck had watched Yanina’s livestreams and knew she could paint
He was curious before about who Yanina learned from, considering her exceptional skills,
He was surprised to find out it was this old gentleman right in front of him.
He felt that it explained why this seemingly ordinary old countryman could match Carl’s presence.
Thinking of this, Chuck subtly observed Sherman
Sherman sat down and watched the waiter serve the dishes. Then he said slowly after a while, “Young people should remember not to just show everything on the surface. Don’t let others easily see through your thoughts and feelings. Focus on self–cultivation
With that, he suddenly glanced at Chuck.

Noticing Sherman’s gaze, Chuck quickly nodded and said, “Mr. Harnett is right. We really should pay attention to that.”
Sherman nodded with satisfaction. “So, stop staring at me. I’m going to have dinner now!”
Gavin couldn’t hold himself back anymore and spluttered tea all over Cathy’s dress.
Chuck’s awkward smile froze on his face, but he still apologized politely, I’m sorry. Mr. Harnett.”
Sherman said, “It’s fine. You just need to practice a bit more. When you reach my age.
Chuck quickly added, “Yes, when I reach your age, I’ll be able to stay as composed as you.”
Sherman chuckled. “Wrong! When you reach my age, you won’t have to hide it anymore. You can check out whoever y want! Hahaha.”
Sherman’s hearty laughter was contagious, and even Carl nodded. “You’re finally free after all these years.”
The two elders exchanged a glance and raised their glasses to cheers in front of Yanina.
Yanina finally relaxed. These two finally stopped arguing.
Carl usually didn’t talk while eating, but Sherman really enjoyed chatting, especially after having a few drinks.
Watching Carl, Sherman felt quite uncomfortable.
He said, “Oh right. What’s your name again, young man?”
Cameron fell silent. No one had ever talked to him like that since he was born.
you
Just when everyone thought Cameron would lose his temper, he politely wiped his mouth with a napkin and softly replied, “Mr. Harnell, my name is Cameron Zamora,”
Cameron might get angry with others, but not with Sherman.
Sherman would risk his life to protect Yanina. Cameron wouldn’t mind such trivial things..
Gavin opened his mouth wide in surprise. Then Daniel put an egg into his mouth.
Gavin instinctively began to chew. He thought, That’s so rare!
‘Since when has Cameron become so easygoing?”
Sherman nodded approvingly. “Not bad. You’re not as hot–headed as your grandpa was. Although you’re not as good- looking as Yanina, you’re fine.”
Cameron smiled and nodded. Yanina knew that very few people could receive such praise from Sherman.
Sherman rarely commented on others, but when he did, it was always sharp.
“My grandson is surely outstanding!” Carl smiled.
Humph. That’s because he’s Harper’s grandson!‘ Sherman rolled his eyes.
For fear that the two old men might start bickering again, Yanina quickly served each of them a fish.
She said, “Mr. Zamora, Mr. Harnett, have some fish.”
The two elders both looked at Yanina with affection. Then they lowered their heads to eat.

Gavin couldn’t help but give, Yanina a thumbs up.
The dinner finally ended without any incidents.
Then Cameron invited them to play cards.
Cathy gave Gavin a resentful glance with a warning in it.
Gavin looked at Cathy, and then at Cameron
He thought. I can coax Cathy, but I can’t afford to offend Cameron. Otherwise, if he really sends me to some far–off place abroad for training. I won’t be able to come back!”
Yanina suggested taking Sherman for a walk by the artificial lake, and Carl also wanted to join them..
Cathy stomped her foot in frustration and then decided to join them as well.
“This lake is not bad, is it?” Carl asked Sherman.
Sherman shook his head slightly. “Humph, it’s just overdone and pretentious. There’s nothing special about it.”
Yanina and Cathy were already used to their way of speaking and both laughed casually.
However, a sharp female voice sounded nearby, “What the hell are you talking about, bumpkin? You’re the pretentious one!”
None of them expected someone to overhear their conversation.
That woman interrupted them rudely and even scolded them.
Everyone turned their heads toward the source of the voice.
Seeing who it was, Yanina sneered.
