Chapter 824: 007 Successful surgery_3

Marcus Parker led them to the hot spring behind the mountain and promised that after lunch, if they wished, they could soak in the hot spring and sip coffee—it was the ultimate pleasure.

"Auntie and Uncle Parker, you two really know how to enjoy yourselves." Admiring the natural hot spring behind the hill, Celia Wade clicked her tongue in admiration. Such a separate courtyard could probably withstand more than ten luxury villas, she thought. Marcus Parker was truly wealthy, spending lavishly on Ellie Wilton without blinking an eye.

The hardships and grievances Ellie Wilton had endured for this man during the first half of her life seemed worthwhile now.

However, did the Parker Family’s other three sons and daughter never think of making a fuss?

Marcus Parker was giving away such a vast fortune to Ellie Wilton—weren’t they angry at all?

"Um, it’s your Aunt who enjoys it the most. Uncle Parker here is old bones; how can I enjoy these things?" Marcus Parker said with a chuckle.

"Is that so? Uncle, you seem to be flourishing in your old age. You don’t look a day over fifty." Ellie Wilton, who clearly looked under forty, thought that these two were actually getting younger with age. Even though they were both quite old, they maintained themselves so well and looked so young.

And Ellie Wilton’s complexion was so rosy and glossy. This couldn’t just be the result of food and medicinal supplements—spiritual nourishment was also very important.

"Girl, have you always been this sweet-talking?" Marcus Parker beamed with a smile. He was nearing seventy, yet here he was being told he looked under fifty. Even though it was an evident flattery, such pleasing words were music to his ears.

"Whatever she says, best not to take it seriously," Jordy Wade, who had been quiet all this while, suddenly chimed in, and Celia Wade’s face turned bright red.

Marcus Parker + Celia Wade: "..."

Celia Wade didn’t know what to say. Why did he always have to spoil her game? Old people liked to hear flattery, so what was wrong with her buttering them up a bit?

Back home, when their family was harmonious, she flattered her mom and dad just the same, and he never spoiled her efforts. But whenever she praised others, he liked to play the spoiler.

She really didn’t understand why.

Marcus Parker, however, didn’t mind, "Celia Wade’s words are pleasant to my ears, and I choose to believe them."

Jordy Wade rolled his eyes so obviously, it clearly conveyed that he thought the old man was too naive.

After walking less than half the way around the hill, a servant came to announce that lunch was ready.

The three of them turned back, and before they sat down, the butler reported, "Sir, madam, Young Master and Zoey Parker have arrived."

The Young Master and Zoey Parker, referred to by the butler, were of course Alexander Parker and Zoey Parker. But what were they doing here? He remembered telling them that if they could not accept Ellie Wilton, then they shouldn’t bother her life.

Had these two come because they’d had a change of heart, willing to accept Ellie Wilton now?

"..." Marcus Parker didn’t speak, and the butler waited for a response, but with the master silent, the butler could only stand there nervously.

It was Ellie Wilton who broke the silence, "Since they’ve come, let them in."

The butler acknowledged her words and went to open the door.

Ellie Wilton turned to Celia Wade and Jordy Wade, "Sorry about that. Those are your Uncle Parker’s son and daughter; all family. With everyone at the doorstep, there’s no reason to send them away, right?"

"Yes, Auntie," Celia Wade felt that the Parker family coming at this moment did not bode well; it was surprising that Ellie Wilton lacked any sense of vigilance.

She was not familiar with the Parker Family, but she had seen and heard enough of such wealthy family dramas. Furthermore, she had acted for a while in family melodramas, so she was guessing based on the logic found in novels and scripts.

The Parker Family could definitely be considered a wealthy family.

Oh, if Jordy Wade acknowledged Marcus Parker and Ellie Wilton, he’d be part of an even wealthier family. Previously, the Wade Family was just moderately wealthy, unattainable luxury in the eyes of many. But the Parker Family—it was on another level.

Not just ten Wade Families, but even a hundred wouldn’t match the Parker Family’s wealth.
