The Secret Heir Return To Wealth And Love Chapter 1104

Chapter 1104 

Calvin’s back in town, Ivy’s always stuck to him like glue, and Cory was at Bane Corporation every day. 

If Wayne was heading to work, Cory tagged along. If not, he waited until Jaime woke up and went with him. It’s only when the father–son duo was out of sight that Hilaria can finally lift her head from her work. 

“Lynn, keep an eye on Wayne. I heard he got Cory into a new development system team. The kid’s still young and just recovered from being sick. He should be resting!” Hilaria said. 

“Actually, it’s not all Wayne’s fault. The development team invited Cory, and he agreed,” Rosalyn explained helplessly. 

Strictly speaking, Cory had accidentally solved a problem that had been bothering the team for a while. They were all singing his praises and immediately asked him to join. 

To Cory, it was an exciting challenge, and he didn’t even check with his parents before saying yes. And Wayne found out when the development department sent in an application. 

“Couldn’t he have stopped it?” Hilaria asked. 

“If you can’t say no to Cory, how can Wayne?” Rosalyn retorted. 

Hilaria was speechless. Cory had always been headstrong. If he didn’t care about something, you could do whatever you wanted with it. But if it was something he decided on, you couldn’t change his mind. 

“How does such a young kid have such a sharp mind?” Hilaria wondered. 

“That’s because he’s a genius!” Ivy chimed in, half–distracted by the game she was playing with Calvin. 

“He’s a little whiz kid!” Hilaria affectionately cooed at Ivy. 

“By the way, how are Lydia, Jared, and her kids?” Rosalyn asked. 

She had planned to bring Lydia and her children to H Country, but Lydia had refused, opting to stay where her late husband had lived.. 

“She’s adjusting to getting back into work. She’s doing well at a branch company, Hilaria answered. 

“As long as she’s standing on her own two feet,” Rosalyn nodded. 

Lydia was strong. Hilaria had planned to give her an easy job to avoid any unfair treatment, but Lydia flat–out refused. 

Before marrying Jason Jared, she had earned her place in a prestigious business school through hard work and met Jason there. After graduation, Jason didn’t want her toiling outside, so he made her a full–time housewife. Now that her rock was gone, she was scared. Looking at her young children and facing a long life ahead, she decided to start over. Staying by Hilaria’s side would only mean relying on another person. She wanted to be her children’s rock. 

“Hopefully, her kids will turn out as brilliant as Cory and Ivy.” Hilaria pondered, then shook her head. “Never mind, the Jared family is loaded. As long as they’re: healthy, happy, and kind, that’s all that matters.” 

Rosalyn understood Hilaria’s feelings but didn’t say anything. The tragic deaths of Latham, Jared, and Jason were a lifelong sorrow for Hilaria. 

She once asked Rosalyn if her strict upbringing had led to their fate. 

Rosalyn thought of her grandfather, whom she never met but who was a playboy with a significant influence in high society. 

So she said, “I can’t put it all on that. Maybe they just took after their father.” 

Hilaria paused at her words, then suddenly burst into laughter. 

“That guy was such a fool. If he weren’t so good–looking, why would I have let him into the Jared family?”
