Spencer knew full well that Hertha was looking for an excuse to hurry him out the door, but he feigned
ignorance, insisting on staying for breakfast purely to discuss marriage plans with Hertha’s parents.
Despite his scholarly appearance, calm and gentle demeanor, Spencer had a penchant for lively
company and distinctive personalities.
Demure, quiet girls didn’t appeal to him. His own personality was reserved. His work life was already a
monotonous two-point routine, dull and uneventful.
If his wife were to share his temperament, life would be utterly tasteless.
But someone like Hertha, with her vivacious and carefree nature, was the sort of girl who can catch his
eye.
On their blind date, when she mentioned On their blind date, when she mentioned going on shopping
sprees, Spencer Pays ow she loved hitting the bars for a drink or for a moment-not out of fear but
attraction.
He had braced himself for another inefficient matchmaking attempt, only to find an interesting girl who
didn’t bother with pretenses or play the sophisticate.
Even today in the park, Hertha didn’t hide a thing, openly sharing how she had gotten drunk at the bar
the previous night and crashed at a nearby hotel.
Her candor was a surprise to Spencer, and it piqued his interest even further.
He had expected her to dodge his questions with some flimsy excuse, like the other girls who were
keen to protect their
Age and save face at any cost.
But not Hertha. She was forthright and unfiltered. And Spencer admired that honesty all the more.
When he had asked Hertha why she was at the park, he had already guessed that the scent of alcohol
on her meant she had been drinking, given the proximity of a nearby bar.
Hertha’s response confirmed his suspicions, and what surprised Spencer was her lack of a child’s fib to
gloss over the facts. She was straightforward about it.
“Alright, if you like it, that’s what matters. Let’s eat.”
Upon hearing Spencer’s declaration of his type of girl, Kimberly and Ashton exchanged a knowing look.
It was hard to hide the joy and excitement in the eyes of the elderly couple. Finally, someone
appreciated their daughter’s fiery and straightforward character instead of finding fault with it.
They were over the moon.
Kimberly cheerfully beckoned Spencer to
Spencer remained composed, the very picture of refinement. Even when slighted by
Hertha, he didn’t take offense. Instead, he sat down peacefully for the breakfast with her parents.
This only made Hertha’s parents all the more approving.
Back at the Falconer residence, Alaric took a shower and was just descending for breakfast when his
mother, Angelina, stormed out of the study. She grabbed Alaric’s ear in a firm twist.
“Did you sleep with Georgia last night, huh?” Angelina’s words were blunt and sharp, cutting straight to
the chase.
Overhearing this sensitive conversation, the servants discreetly bowed their heads and scattered from
the dining area, busying themselves elsewhere to avoid the wrath that might spill over onto them.
“Ouch! Mom, let go!” Alaric winced in pain, raising his hands in a surrendering gesture.
“Oh, so you know how to hurt? Did you think about the pain of the girl you slept with?” Angelina held
Alaric’s eat while planting her other hand on her hip.
“Georgia enjoyed it. It’s not like it was her first time, how could it hurt?” Alaric retorted with a nonchalant
attitude.
