A smile appeared on Helen’s face as she immediately recovered her previous confidence.
“You’re even more beautiful than before.” Peter could not help praising her.
“That’s my daughter for you,” Gina bragged proudly. “She’s a natural beauty, unlike that whore Vicky.”
Gregy nodded repeatedly beside her. “Of course. You were the most beautiful girl back in our school, so Helen would definitely not fall short.”
He was certainly impressed by Dan’s miraculous medicine, just as he was stunned by Helen’s beauty.
Such a shame that he was not younger… but there was no rule dictating that old men could not date young!
While Helen was still busy admiring herself, Gina nudged her. “Thank Mr. Marsh already, Helen. There’s no telling how long it would take for you to recover if he didn’t speak to Dan Zimmer on your behalf.”
Helen bowed in gratitude right then. “Thank you, Mr. Marsh…”
“Oh, it’s no big deal,” Greg quickly helped her up. “Why don’t we have dinner together tonight? I’ll book a private room for us at a hotel…”
“Actually, it would have to wait,” Helen said awkwardly. “The groundbreaking ceremony for the West City Project shall be held tomorrow, and I have to prepare. Allow me to buy you dinner instead.”
Greg did not push the issue since he was aware of Lane Holding’s joint project with the Turnbulls. “Yes, you should go do that we can have dinner another day.
“I’m free tonight, Greg,” Gina said just then. “Why don’t we….
Greg was suddenly scratching his head. “Maybe another day. I’m busy tonight as well.”
Gina looked utterly disappointed. “Okay…”
Peter nudged her just then. “Tell him, Mom.”
Gina remembered right then and turned back to Greg. “You’re close with Mr. Zimmer, aren’t you?”
cleared his throat and nodded. “Of course.”

In reality, he had never even met the man.
However, having already lied once, he had no choice but to keep going at this point.
“In that case, could you propose for his granddaughter’s hand?” Gina smiled.” Peter here has recently taken a liking to Mr. Zimmer’s granddaughter, and since you’re close with him, you can help us out.”
Greg was left dumbstruck and turned to look at Peter, standing there with a stupid mile on his face.
He actually felt his eyes twitching. Who did that boy think he was? How delusional could these people get? Dan would show him the door before he event breathed a word!
Still, he replied half–heartedly, “Uh… I guess I’ll talk to him when I can.”
Peter thought he was agreeing to it and nodded repeatedly in gratitude right then. “Thank you, Mr. Marsh! I’m counting on you!”
As Greg nodded awkwardly, Helen was frowning nearby.
She knew what her younger brother was.
Even if it would be wonderful Peter could marry the heiress to Flora Hall, would Dan really be interested in such an arrangement?!
The next day, Frank was training when he got a call from Vicky.
“Stop pretending to sleep. I’m downstairs,” she told him.
“I’m training, not sleeping.”
“Then stop training. Don’t you know what day it is?”
“What day is it?” Frank asked in curiosity.
“The day of the West City Project groundbreaking ceremony.” Vicky smiled.” Don’t you want to see Helen?”
“Ahem…”
