Chapter 897: How Much Did She Squander?
CHAPTER 897: CHAPTER 897: HOW MUCH DID SHE SQUANDER?
"There’s no difference between being overly kind and being foolish. I don’t like foolish people!" Kyle Keaton replied.
July Quinn laughed.
He was unconditionally biased towards her, even though she, July Quinn, was not perfect.
This feeling was good, it made all the pent-up frustration she accumulated at The Donovan Family disappear instantly.
"Honey, can you make me some inconvenient instant noodles? I want to eat that now."
She buried her face in his chest, deeply inhaling his scent, only this could completely relax her guard.
Seeing July Quinn in such a dejected state, Kyle Keaton knew she must have suffered grievances at The Donovan Family.
He had considered not letting her go to The Donovan Family, but he also understood her longing for family affection.
So, those words advising her not to go back were swallowed down again, replaced by:
"Sure, but I watched a cooking video and plan to make you a new flavor."
She wanted to feel what true kinship was, he didn’t mind letting her experience it again.
Of course, if the people of The Donovan Family made her unhappy again, he wouldn’t let a single one of them off.
Soon, Kyle Keaton took July Quinn home to make instant noodles...

On the other side—
Old Master Donovan was sunbathing in the courtyard, and Yvonne Donovan was half-squatting, massaging his legs.
"Grandpa, does this feel a bit more comfortable?"
"Comfortable, comfortable, my Yvonne is really good! But squatting like this isn’t comfortable for you, better get up soon."
Old Master Donovan couldn’t bear to let his precious granddaughter massage his legs like this, and he persuaded Yvonne Donovan several times.
But Yvonne Donovan said, "I’m fine, I’ll massage a bit more for grandpa, so your legs won’t feel uncomfortable!"
Actually, she was under a house arrest order from Richard Donovan this whole time, unable to go anywhere.
Moreover, now July Quinn was planning to enter The Donovan Family and be on equal footing with her.
At a time like this, Yvonne Donovan certainly needed to ingratiate herself with Old Master Donovan, only he could help her drive July Quinn out of this family.
"My Yvonne is considerate. But I’m afraid grandpa’s legs might not get better."
Old Master Donovan had a severe leg injury when he was young. Though it healed, he later developed chronic leg pain.
Now every winter he depended on a cane, sometimes even the pain kept him tossing and turning, unable to sleep.
"Grandpa, don’t say such discouraging things. After I graduate from Golden Kapok Academy, I will definitely earn lots and lots of money to treat your legs, so you can walk as freely as others!"
Old Master Donovan was immediately overjoyed upon hearing this.
"My Yvonne is filial, indeed I haven’t loved you in vain!"
Later, Old Master Donovan also talked with Yvonne Donovan about the Golden Kapok Academy interview.
"The interview is scheduled for the weekend. I just got the notice last night, and I’ll go with Joy to participate then."
"How’s your preparation going?"
"I’ve memorized all the interview content by heart, there should be no problem."
As they reached this point in the conversation, Quentin Donovan returned.
"Quentin."
Yvonne Donovan greeted enthusiastically.
Quentin Donovan smiled at her too, "Yvonne, massaging grandpa?"
"Yvonne hasn’t gone out to play all morning, she’s just been busy massaging my legs and even said she wants to earn money to treat my legs."
Old Master Donovan loved sharing stories about Yvonne Donovan’s filial piety, as this was his source of pride.
But after sharing, Old Master Donovan didn’t forget to ask Quentin Donovan:
"By the way, why did you come back? Is it because that girl has squandered all the money I gave?"
While Yvonne Donovan seemed to be diligently massaging Old Master Donovan’s legs, she was actually quietly listening intently, wanting to know how much money July Quinn had squandered.
