Chapter 82
Levi immediately spoke up, “Harry, what’s going on? Or is there something already going
on?”
Levi’s tone became increasingly curious. Before Harry could answer, he asked again, “When did this happen? How come you didn’t tell us?”
Franklin just smiled and looked at Harry, clearly wanting to hear his side of the story.
Harry remained calm and responded, “We just ran into each other by chance.”
“Is that so?” Levi didn’t buy it and seemed to have recalled something. “So you must have had lunch together, right? No wonder you’re handling the kid so easily, seems like you have
a helper!”
Harry didn’t respond.
Franklin gave him a knowing look, delivering the final blow: “You like her.”
Harry paused, his mouth opening, but in the end, he said nothing to deny it.
Julia was taken aback, and her smile faded a little.
“Wait, it’s actually true?” Levi had only been teasing before, but now it seemed to be real. He hurriedly asked, “Who is she? Do we know her? Why didn’t you introduce us?”
Harry didn’t say anything. Levi thought it might be because there was no clear status yet, so Harry didn’t want to talk about it.
Knowing he wouldn’t get a direct answer, Levi chuckled and crouched down, asking Daisy,
“Daisy, how many times have you met the aunt you had lunch with today? Do you know
her name?”
Harry’s grip on his glass tightened suddenly. “Yuming!”

Daisy wasn’t familiar with the adults thoughts. She wasn’t close to Lexi, but ones he asked about Maggie, she thought for a moment and then said without hestation, “The fest
“And what’s her name…?”
When Harry ran into Maggie earlier, he hadn’t called her “Miss Miller ether, so Datsy
couldn’t remember her name,
She looked to Harry for help. “Uncle, what’s Auntie’s name?”
Harry lowered his gaze. “Next time you see her, you can ask her yourself
Daisy happily nodded. “Okay!”
Levi sighed. “…So stingy.”
Harry ignored him.
Daisy saw how much Isabella liked the crystal keychain in her hand. Although she felt a bit reluctant, she still gave one to Isabella.
Isabella was delighted. “Thank you, Daisy.”
Julia also thanked her.
Daisy replied, “You’re welcome…”
Seeing how happy Isabella was, Daisy asked, “Isabella, aren’t you going to get one for your
mom too?”
Isabella paused, her voice growing a little softer as she replied, “I’ll get one later..
“Oh…” Daisy nodded, accepting that answer.
Back at Maggie’s Place
After dinner, Maggie read for a while before heading to the bathroom for a shower.

Just as she stepped out of the bathroom, her phone rang. It was a call from Jason.
“Mag, I just saw Tracy in the neighborhood.”
Tracy? Julia’s aunt?
Maggie was momentarily stunned, not quite processing it. Before she could react, Jason
continued,
“At first, I didn’t pay much attention, but after I entered the house, I realized she went into
that villa across from ours. The one that’s under renovation.”
Maggie’s face changed abruptly. She sat up quickly from the bed.
Jason was usually quite calm, but at this moment, he gritted his teeth. “They… they must have done it on purpose!”
Franklin’s help in establishing the Brown family’s position in the capital city was widely
known in the business circles.
Although the Miller family wasn’t doing great now, Jason was still part of the inner circle,
and he wasn’t unaware of the situation.
But, for the sake of Maggie, he hadn’t mentioned it.
If the Brown family planned to settle in the capital and buy property, Jason could
understand.
But everyone knew where the Brown family lived. The capital was so large, yet they had chosen to buy the house directly across from them. If that wasn’t intentional, who would
believe it?
Maggie understood what he meant.
Clenching her phone, she said, “I’ll call Franklin.”
“Alright.”

If it were any other matter, Jason would never have let her reach out to Franklin. But this
was different.
If Tracy and her group really moved in, they would probably constantly try to create a presence in front of them. The old lady’s health wasn’t great and couldn’t handle such
stimulation…
Maggie ended the call and quickly dialed Franklin’s number.
After a brief wait, the phone was answered.
“Hello.”
It was Julia’s voice.
