Unveiling Hearts

Roselynn seemed to have caught on a bit!

Without waiting for her to ask, Julian clearly stated the answer. “Once I inherit the Summerton family, I

will take over this business, but I don’t want war, let alone become a sinner aiding war traffickers.”

“No wonder your Summerton family owns factories like Hadley factory… and it’s no surprise that

Hadley factory has declined…” Roselynn seemed to have figured out all the ins and outs.

It turns out that the young people of the Summerton family are unwilling to inherit this family fortune of

several tens of billions because they do not want to become executioners of war, Roselynn realized,

her mind racing as she processed this revelation.

After discussing this topic, the two fell into silence for a moment.

Roselynn could not help but carefully look at Julian for the first time.

He appeared a bit unruly and reckless, seemingly unreliable. But in fact, Roselynn found herself

acknowledging Julian’s underlying depth, his own ideas, and principles.

Most importantly, Roselynn felt his gentle and kind heart that emitted a soft glow, making her feel very

comfortable!

Roselynn lifted her glass. “Here, Julian, I toast to you! To a kind future business tycoon!” Julian was

slightly taken aback, showing a hint of surprise, but he still raised his glass somewhat awkwardly.

This was the first time his crush had taken the initiative.

“In fact, inheriting the Summerton family’s business may not necessarily be a bad thing!” Roselynn took

a sip of her wine after the toast, smiling as she spoke to him.

“If the Summerton family’s business is classified like this, even if you don’t inherit it, the people behind

you will definitely let others take over, and they will continue to support armed conflicts and disrupt the

world! But if you were in charge, maybe you could do something to prevent wars… My dad taught me

this: ‘To stop wrongdoers, you need to be stronger than them, or at least have equal power!’ That is

why you might have a chance to make a difference!” she continued.

After hearing her words, Julian, who had been feeling down, suddenly brightened up with a smile and

reached out to tightly hold Roselynn’s hand.

Roselynn trembled slightly at Julian’s sudden action.

“Roselynn, you’re absolutely right! But I am not very smart, and sometimes I am afraid I might forget

this lesson. If you could always be by my side to remind me and encourage me, I am sure I can do

even better!” he said.

This man is quite good at seizing the opportunity! Roselynn thought.

Although she was still a little afraid, she did not resist Julian as she did before. Seeing his expression

now, and recalling what he had done for her, softened her heart, and she nodded in agreement.

“We’re good friends, and I’m here for you whenever you need to talk! But just to be clear, let’s keep our

relationship strictly as friends. No crossing any lines, okay?” Roselynn explained.

Yes, we’re making progress again. Julian thought excitedly, feeling a sense of progress in his heart,

and nodded in agreement.

He understood that patience was key but having Roselynn’s assurance meant a lot to him. Even if they

could not take their relationship to the next level, simply being able to spend time together was enough

to make him happy!

For now, he was content with how things were progressing!

On the other side, Beatrix sat in Lexi’s car, smiling triumphantly after successfully setting up a solo date

between Julian and Roselynn. She grinned and said, “Lexi, it seems like Julian and Roselynn hitting it

off, don’t you think?”

Lexi smiled as she gripped the steering wheel. “Yeah, I never thought Julian would agree to inherit the

Summerton family just

to impress Roselynn!”

Summerton family just to impress Roselynn!”

“Hey, what are you talking about? And what is with that expression of yours?” Beatrix could not help but

mutter and complain, “It’s like inheriting a multi-billion-dollar fortune is some kind of pain. So many

people hope for it but cannot get it. If you go out there showing off like this, you might get beaten up in

no time!”

Lexi just chuckled casually. It is understandable since Beatrix might not know much about the

Summerton family.

“Alright, Lexi, you can let me off here,” Beatrix suddenly requested as she prepared to exit the car.

Lexi was slightly taken aback, noticing they were in an upscale residential area. Unable to resist, she

asked, “Beatrix, are you planning to buy a house here?”

As Beatrix stepped out of the car and nodded, adding, “Yes, I am concerned about disrupting

Mackenzie and Emmanuel’s marital bliss. If my sister still has not conceived, I fear Grandpa might

blame me for being careless when he returns!”

Is Mackenzie expecting a baby? Lexi wondered, chuckling softly to herself.
