When the Wind is Sweet: The Fairy Tale of Mr. and Mrs. Lancaster-Chapter 797: The Xavier Family of Jadepoint
"Perhaps... it’s also a kind of arrangement by the heavens." Eliza Hayes gently leaned on his shoulder.
Her mood was inexplicably heavy, "Caleb, I won’t ask you if you love her, I just want to tell you, I love you very much." For twenty years, she thought of him constantly.
The driver and bodyguard were separated by soundproof panels, so Eliza Hayes couldn’t help but speak these words sincerely.
As a man, Caleb Lancaster naturally felt his wife’s love. He gripped her shoulder and turned his gaze, asking softly, "Besides Zephyrspire, where else would you like to go?"
As expected, he didn’t answer her question and didn’t say he didn’t love Claire Keller.
Eliza Hayes felt strange inside; the topic shifted just like that, anyway, these two wouldn’t have any involvement in the future...
"As long as I’m with you, I’m willing to go anywhere." This was her answer, and also her truest thought.
Jadepoint is next to Argent, it’s also a bustling city, with especially rich cultural heritage.
If in Argent, The Lancaster Family supports half the sky. 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺
Then in Jadepoint, The Xavier Family is number one, covering nearly half of Jadepoint’s industry. This big family has weathered countless upheavals and experienced honor and disgrace over hundreds of years.
The Xavier Family’s old residence is a Qing Dynasty building, not only well-preserved but also maintained and reinforced annually with a large expenditure of money and manpower.
It sits at the foot of a mountain, grand and magnificent, warm in winter and cool in summer, where The Xavier Family members all live.
Granny Hughes recently lives here quite comfortably, with attendants, daughter accompanying her, the environment is beyond mere elegance, evergreen throughout the seasons, the lakes and mountains form thousands of shapes.
Argent.
Faye Turner was in Dr. Aiken’s backyard, carrying a large bag, while Dr. Aiken cut through the valonia wood pieces for her.
Outside the clinic, a long line formed, all were locals who got a number today for consultation.
"Please wait, Dr. Aiken will be here shortly." Mrs. Aiken was outside attending to everyone.
"Getting a number is good enough, no rush, we can wait!"
"Yeah, no rush, no rush."
Everyone trusted Dr. Aiken very much, so usually didn’t want to go to the hospital regardless of the illness, they always thought of this place first.
In the yard, Faye Turner recognized all the Chinese herbs planted there.
"Dr. Aiken, your Rumex and Polygonum are growing really well." She couldn’t help but praise as she carried the large bag, "Even better than my mentor used to cultivate."
"It’s probably because of the soil, I carried these boxes of soil back from the deep mountains." Dr. Aiken replied with a smile while helping her chop.
"Thank you so much, I feel embarrassed, but I couldn’t find valonia wood anywhere else."
"You said it concerns your good friend’s happiness, so this wood is more meaningful than medicine, fulfilling the highest value of valonia wood."
"Thank you."
Soon, Dr. Aiken helped her extract the pith from the wood, "You’re welcome. If your mentor ever returns from his travels, please let me know, I’d like to visit."
"Sure, I’ll definitely keep it in mind!"
About ten minutes later, Faye Turner tied up the bag containing the pith, bid farewell to Dr. Aiken, and as she left, she was seen by the locals queuing at the clinic door—
"Isn’t that Mrs. Lancaster?"
"It’s Mrs. Lancaster, hello Mrs. Lancaster!"
"Mrs. Lancaster!"
Faye Turner paused, stunned, realizing almost everyone was warmly greeting her. She could only smile and nod at everyone, "Hello."
Even after Faye Turner left, she was still praised—
"It’s President Lancaster and Mrs. Lancaster, they visit our retirement home every quarter, bringing daily supplies, arranging haircuts, delivering food, various care packages, spending money genuinely on us elders."
