CHAPTER 99: CHAPTER 99: OLD FOX

"Yes, I can... Darling, time to take your medicine!"

The man placed a kiss on her lips.

"Then I’ll gladly accept it!"

The man affectionately rubbed her forehead, "In this life, I’m totally captivated by you!"

Serena Keaton wrapped her arms around Elias Lancaster’s neck, "Hubby, I want to kiss you."

"Do you want to kiss me, or do you want to tease me?"

"Uh oh, I’ve been caught!"

The man frowned slightly.

"How could I not know? If you say you want it, then go ahead and do it!"

Elias Lancaster wasn’t the least bit shy, he was even more expectant, hoping his sweetheart would take the initiative.

Serena Keaton was still somewhat inexperienced, but she mustered the courage.

Slowly leaning toward the man’s lips, gently touching them.

In the next second.

The man took back control, gripping the back of her head with one hand, while the other hand started misbehaving around her waist.

A moment later.

Serena Keaton felt his breathing becoming erratic and nervously pushed him away.

"Alright, we can’t continue any further..."

The man sat up, closed his eyes, adjusting his breathing.

Serena Keaton buried her head into the pillow, terrified that the man might not contain himself the next second.

The man, helpless, grabbed his clothes to freshen up.

After he came out, he saw the person sitting on the bed, laughing joyfully over the phone.

"Baby, what are you laughing about?"

"Elias, I’m gossiping about Leo and my brother!"

Elias Lancaster came over, turned off the light, and switched on the bedside lamp, stretched out his long arm, pulling the person on the bed into his embrace.

The man leaned against the headboard, letting Serena Keaton lean in his arms.

"Ronan and I grew up together, baby, what do you want to know, hubby will tell you."

Serena Keaton got interested, tossed the phone aside, and wrapped her arms around the man’s waist.

"Yay~"

"Elias, did my brother ever date anyone before?"

Elias Lancaster thought for a moment, "He dated someone in college, but later they broke up. After studying abroad and returning, we were all busy with our own things, hardly seeing each other, so I don’t know if there’s been anyone during that time."

He figured if there were women, it would also be normal!

If Ronan Keaton knew, he’d probably go crazy: Thanks, good brother, well said, but please don’t speak next time!

Serena Keaton raised an eyebrow, "My brother’s not a player, is he?"

Elias Lancaster patted Serena Keaton’s head, "Do you think everyone’s like your Elias, almost thirty and still a virgin?"

Serena Keaton: "..."

Far away at the Keaton residence, Ronan Keaton suddenly sneezed twice.

His eyelids twitched, he rubbed his nose inexplicably.

Serena Keaton sighed, "I was hoping for Leo to be my sister-in-law, but if he’s a player, maybe not!"

"It’s not necessarily so, he seemed serious to me today."

Thinking back to today, Serena Keaton recalled gossiping with Nia Irving about women’s little mischiefs and couldn’t help but smile.

"Baby, was what I just said funny?"

"Haha..."

After laughing for a while, Serena Keaton leaned into Elias Lancaster’s ear, lowered her voice, and started gossiping about Ronan Keaton’s skills from today’s chat with Nia Irving...

Elias Lancaster chuckled softly, blowing into her ear.

"Baby, how do you think your hubby’s skills are?"

Serena Keaton thought for a bit, "It’s... alright, haha..."

"One week later, don’t tell me you don’t want it then!"

Elias Lancaster affectionately looked at the person in his embrace, not angry at all with her teasing, under the dim bedside lamp.

The two of them chatted about gossip, slowly falling asleep in each other’s arms.

The next day.

Today is the last day of school; the winter break is coming.

Upon arrival at the school gate, Serena Keaton repeated everything Elias Lancaster said last night to Nia Irving.

"I’m okay, he and I are not from the same world, there’s no future possible," Nia Irving said with a nonchalant expression.

But she still felt uneasy inside, so she took out her phone and directly put Ronan Keaton on the blacklist.

Ronan Keaton originally planned to send Nia Irving a WeChat message today to ask her out for dinner tonight.

What he didn’t expect was that his own sister would sell him out, directly sending him to the pursuit purgatory.

Seeing the exclamation mark before the sent message, with the prompt below: You’re not their friend yet, please send a friend request first.

Ronan Keaton was dumbfounded, "What’s going on?"

His mood instantly plummeted.

He opened the chat group with his childhood friends.

Ronan Keaton: [Tonight at the usual place, @everyone]

Jensen Sterling: [On a business trip]

Brandon Grayson: [Busy, spending time with my Nancy]

Elias Lancaster: [Busy, with the wife]

Ronan Keaton: [@Elias Lancaster, brother-in-law, you’re too heartless!]

Elias Lancaster: [Brother-in-law, did you get dumped?]

Brandon Grayson: [He doesn’t even have a girlfriend; how could he get dumped by a donkey?]

Elias Lancaster: [Are you sure about that?]

Brandon Grayson: [Of course, want to bet on it?]

Elias Lancaster: [Bet you call Miss Lawrence and say you miss her.]

Brandon Grayson: [...]

That Miss Lawrence, with her portly figure, is at least two and a half times bigger than he is...

Ronan Keaton: [Bro, that’s a high-level move!]

Half an hour later.

Ronan Keaton drove straight to the Lancaster Group.

Elias Lancaster glanced up at him, then continued with his work.

"Is The Keaton Corporation going bankrupt? You’re so free, why not come help at The Lancaster Corporation, I’ll throw in a honeymoon package."

Ronan Keaton flopped dejectedly onto the sofa.

"I’ve been blacklisted; can you talk to Nia Irving for me to get me back?"

Elias Lancaster looked at him with a bit of surprise.

"Even you’ve met your match today."

He looked at Elias Lancaster with resentment, "Teach me how to pursue a girl."

"I’ve only had your sister in this life, she was the first and the last. You want me to teach you, are you sure?"

Ronan Keaton put on a pitiful face, "But you’ve successfully got yourself a wife and kids, right?"

Elias Lancaster smirked, "You dated during college, why do you need me to teach?"

"That was when I was young and ignorant, my innocence was given to your subordinates."

"I don’t even know how to pursue a girl; it depends on personal charm and looks, I guess."

Ronan Keaton rolled his eyes.

Elias Lancaster felt something was off.

He recalled what Serena Keaton said last night, he kind of knew why Ronan got blacklisted.

"Can’t you just command Nia Irving to take me off the blacklist?"

"She’s a bodyguard for The Lancaster Family, she’s under contract, not a sale contract, her romantic life is her own."

Elias Lancaster frowned and added, "If you like her, go find her!"

Ronan Keaton’s eyebrows furrowed, "I always feel like you’re up to something?"

Elias Lancaster put down the pen in his hand, "She’s just one of my bodyguards, not someone I’m familiar with."

"Why don’t I let Serena find out for me?"

Ronan Keaton still didn’t know he got trapped by his sister and brother-in-law’s scheming, yet he was asking them to help him out, his heart was certainly bold.

"What are the benefits?"

Ronan Keaton glanced at him, "What do you want?"
