Chapter 179 Troublesome Relatives.
"Mr. Milo, the call didn't go through."
"That's not possible. Get someone else to try again."
That was proven to be useless because the entire team's number failed to get through.
Which leaves only one possibility.

Jared bent over laughing and fell onto the sofa. "Well, well, it seems like your sister took you guys for scammers and blocked all your numbers!"
An awkward silence fell over the room, and Milo's face flushed with irritation.
Seriously...
He just wanted to gift something to Charmaine as compensation. Why is it so difficult?
Jared let out a resigned sigh at Milo's frustration. "You're harder to please than the girls, you know. Well, women are usually more soft-hearted. I think it's better if you deliver your gifts to her personally instead of finding new ways to give them to her indirectly. If she doesn't accept it, don't give up and just keep trying: she'll come around eventually."
Milo perked up at his words. "That works!
"As expected from you, Jared. You really earned the title of a womanizer. I never knew being one would require so much effort!"
Jared gave him a flat stare. "...
You little brat! Is this what I get for trying to help you?!
The convoy returned to Eastlake.
As soon as she opened the door, Charmaine let out a few sneezes unexpectedly.
Emyr, who had his eyes closed, slowly opened them and watched her with a frown.
"You're still unwell?"
His voice was low and hoarse, as if something was lodged in his throat.
Charmaine rubbed her nose and replied, "My nose just felt itchy suddenly, that's all. Don't sweat it."
She then peered at him guiltily. "But your voice..."
"I just need a few days of rest."
He shot a meaningful glance at her. When Alfred came out to greet them, he instructed the butler, "Get the kitchen to prepare more nourishing foods these days."
He paused and remembered reading online that when a woman experiences discomfort during her Chapter 179 Troublesome Relatives

All of a sudden, Alfred stood straight with respect, and when he looked at Charmaine, the reserved affection in his gaze was replaced by overflowing excitement.
"Of course, of course. I'll have the kitchen prepare something nourishing for Ms. Nelson. Oh, and for you too, Mr. Milo, your voice is all hoarse."
Alfred held his hands together so tightly that it was shaking lightly.
It must be the blessings from Sir and Madam in the heavens, for things to progress so quickly and
smoothly between Mr. Milo and Ms. Nelson!
At this rate, can he look forward to a wedding soon?
Charmaine noticed the barely concealed joy on Alfred's face, and the corner of her lips twitched.
She can swear to God, Alfred must have misunderstood something!
Before she could even attempt to explain, a man and a woman, both brightly dressed, walked out to the living room.
Based on their age, they seemed like a pair of mother and son.
Alfred explained in a hushed whisper, "Mr. Emyr, Mrs. Jenny and Mr. Hector are here for a visit again." Charmaine raised her brows at his choice of words.
Again, huh?
Emyr, to his credit, maintained his composure. "I see."
"Oh, Emyr, you're finally back!"
Jenny walked over to Emyr casually, her arms wide open for a hug but was stopped by someone.
Tad stepped forward and put a distance between Jenny and Emyr. "Apologies, Mrs. Jenny. Mr. Emyr is not fond of physical interactions with strangers."
Hector, who was standing behind Jenny, rolled his eyes at Tad's antics. "Arrogant piece of sh*t. My mom
is his aunt, okay? Who are you calling a stranger?"
Emyr glanced at Hector and spoke in a measured tone, "It is true that I dislike being close to others, including relatives."
Upon hearing that, Hector looked away awkwardly.
Despite the rejection, Jenny didn't seem to mind and scolded her son instead. "Don't be like that. Your cousin's body is weaker now. We can't ask him to act like his old self."
She then turned to Emyr and smiled. "Emyr, darling, it must be difficult for you to go all the way to Sunnyshore. I don't know why your parents would choose to be buried in such a far place either. Eragos is so much better and closer with a large space. Isn't that better for you?"

A realization dawned on Charmaine.
Even the high and mighty Mr. Emyr couldn't escape the fate of having troublesome relatives...
Emyr's expression had already turned stormy. With clear displeasure etched in his voice, he finally asked. "What do you want?"
Jenny ignored his irritation and said shamelessly, "It's the death anniversary of your parents. As your aunt, of course I need to come over to show my concern."
As soon as the last word fell out of her mouth, Jenny heard a light chuckle.
Her eyes fell on Charmaine, who covered her mouth hastily, and was surprised to find a woman standing beside Emyr.
Jenny scanned her from head to toe, confirming that all her clothings and accessories are not even worth
a thousand dollars. She sneered in disdain, "What's so funny, missy? Have some manners."
