?Chapter 892:


    “Well, in my humble opinion, if you’re serious about pursuing Miss Jones, impressing her with your cooking skills might not be enough. You might also want to get along with the people around her, like…” Edwin leaned forward a bit, covered his mouth with one hand, and murmured, “Mrs. Bethel Dawson.”


    “Are you experienced in chasing after women?” Dn’s brow furrowed as he gave Edwin a dubious look. If his memories served him right, Edwin had never been in a rtionship. Not once. Both Ralphy and Edwin had practically been single for all their lives. Ralphy’s advice had already proven to be a total flop. Was there any real chance Edwin’s strategy would work?


    “I’m totally inexperienced, ha-ha…” Edwin let out an awkward chuckle, scratching his neck. “But I have perspective. I can tell how much Miss Jones cares about Mrs. Dawson.” He threw Dn a knowing wink. “Just think about it—Mrs. Dawson once saved Miss Jones’s life, and Miss Jones actually listens to Mrs. Dawson’s advice when ites to big stuff, like marriage. That just indicates how much Mrs. Dawson means to Miss Jones.”


    Dn didn’t look entirely convinced, so Edwin pushed a little more. “Maybe it’s because Miss Jones doesn’t receive any warmth from her family, and Mrs. Dawson treats her like one of her own. That’s probably why Miss Jones clings to Mrs. Dawson so tightly. You saw how lit up Miss Jones looked when I made Mrs. Dawson happy earlier. I’m telling you, if you start from that angle, you’re bound to win Miss Jones over.”


    Edwin thumped his chest with assertiveness. Sure, he’d said it partly to earn some bonus, but he also genuinely wanted to see Dn end up with the woman he liked. Because, frankly, the alternative was terrifying. If Dn’s love life went south, all the employees of the Scott Group would be doomed to walk on eggshells every day, never knowing when their boss might explode.


    Dn was quiet for a moment, considering Edwin’s advice. Compared to Ralphy’s blunt proposal idea, this at least seemed more reasonable.


    “That makes sense.” His cold gaze flickered with the faintest hint of approval. “If it works, your year-end bonus will be doubled.”


    ???????? ???????? ???????? ?????????????????ν??????????????


    Edwin lit up like a kid on Christmas morning. He was about to blurt out his thanks when Dn spoke again.


    “No. Triple it.”


    Another bump. Edwin was thrilled. “Thank you, Mr. Scott!”


    Edwin nearly danced on the spot, giddy like he’d just hit the jackpot. The feeling was pure magic. From that moment on, he pledged unwavering loyalty to Christina. If anyone—man or woman—dared to get close to Dn with shady intentions, he’d deal with them himself. No one woulde between Dn and the woman Dn liked.<fnbc77> Th?s chapter is updated by find?novel</fnbc77>


    Time zipped by, and before they knew it, the day of Margot’s birthday banquet arrived.


    Everyone attending was someone worth knowing.


    As soon as Katie stepped out of the car, she raised her chin high, like she was royalty making her grand entrance.


    She swept her gaze over the male attendees, mostly the young, eligible bachelors of Lorbridge, a smile ying on her lips that deepened with every nce. If she could snag a decent husband tonight, the whole trip would be worth it.
