Chapter 1944
---- Chapter 1944 Liliana stayed completely silent the entire ride up to the cathedral, not saying a single word.
Andrew did not care how she felt. Besides, he was not in the mood to bother figuring it out. Once they got out of
the car, he casually looked around. Though the air was cold, the sun was shining, casting a warm glow that made
the chill more bearable. However, the breeze up at the summit was strong, and Andrew reminded Victoria to
keep warm.
"Con," Victoria said as she linked arms with him. "Letintroduce you to the abbot here." Andrew felt a bit
awkward, but he did not pull away. Behind them, Calvin and Miles exchanged glances. Miles gave a wry smile
and said, "Mom really likes Andrew... but it's more like an elder admiring a junior, that's all." Calvin . "You're
pathetic. You and Liliana both. He's an outsider, yet he's more well-liked than you two. I really don't know how
you can stand it." ---- Miles shrugged.
"Honestly, | think Andrew is a great role model. There's a lot | can learn from him. Besides, Mom explained that
she used to be close to Andrew's father back in the day. Dad, you don't need to keep scowling about it... It's not
that serious." Calvin's face darkened. "Grab the floral arrangements and other stuff. From today on, I'll make sure
you and Liliana see just how impressive | am." Miles did not take it seriously.
After all, everyone in the Peck family knew that his father had married into the family, and Victoria made the
family's major decisions. For minor matters, Calvin would just brush them off and live carefree. Therefore, most
of the time, it was either the butler, Allen, or Miles, the eldest son, who handled things personally. Hence, when

was feeling provoked.
The back mountain area of the cathedral was peaceful and secluded, with only a few visitors. Most were internal
cathedral staff who cand went. A bald man in red robes greeted them with a warm smile. "Mrs. Peck, you've
arrived!" Seeing the red robes he wore, Andrew knew this must be the --—- abbot himself. Victoria pressed her
palms together and bowed her head. "Good to see you again, Abbot Matthias Graves. Sorry to disturb you
again!" Andrew bowed respectfully.
"Pleasure to meet you, Abbot Graves." Matthias had a broad forehead, chubby face, and a clean, gentle
appearance that made him seem harmless and kind. He said with a grin, "Even though this is our first time
meeting, | must say... Mr. Lloyd, your aura is quite something. Especially your romantic energy. It's absolutely out
of this world." He looked Andrew over with twinkling eyes, sizing him up. Andrew gave a helpless smile. "You
flatter me, Abbot Graves.
I'm just an ordinary guy." Matthias shook his head. "At the peak of mundanity lies true elegance. And you, Mr.
Lloyd, are clearly someone with great virtue and potential. However, | sense many romantic entanglements in
your life. Also, remember: 'the tallest tree catches the wind.’ In the days to come, you'll need to tread carefully."
Andrew frowned. Matthias was getting all cryptic right from the start. They were having a normal conversation,
so why was he ---- cursing him? Victoria laughed.
