?Chapter 150: Force him into a dead end by cutting off ties. Chapter 150: Force him into a dead end by cutting off ties. When William Hale and Zoe Bell arrived at the Hugh household, it was nearly noon, and Hannah Johnson naturally invited them to stay for lunch.
“Lunch? What’s there to eat?” William Hale glanced at the kitchen, where the stove was cold and unused.
Hannah Johnson hadn’t felt like eating, so she hadn’t asked the servants to prepare anything.
She pointed to her cellphone, “Order takeout?”
“…”
“There’s a decent Japanese sushi place, might as well let Zoe have a taste.” Hannah Johnson dragged Zoe Bell to the sofa to order food while a flicker of light crossed her eyes upon noticing a hidden reddish mark near Zoe’s collar.
She then glanced at her cousin.
She hadn’t expected him to be so capable behind his usual abstinent and cold appearance.
“Aunt Yumi’s not home?” William Hale hadn’t seen Yumi Johnson around.
Hannah hummed in response, “I told her she needed to try on a set of custom-made jewelry, and she needed to dress up for it, otherwise it wouldn’t look right. She didn’t want to go, but when she heard it was being made by the Payne family, she agreed.”
“The Payne family? Indeed, they’re not easy to deal with,” William Hale admitted frankly.
“Why is that?” Zoe Bell asked, curious.
“That family operates in an unusual way, seldom socializes, and it’s all handcrafted work. So they only take a few orders each year; they don’t care about your status or wealth. Sometimes, if they like you, they might even waive the fee,” Hannah explained.
Zoe Bell nodded.
“But they also have a production line, and those pieces of jewelry are not cheap either. Yet no matter how fine the machines, they can’t replicate the warmth that handcrafted pieces bring to the wearer.”
As she spoke, Hannah handed her cellphone to Zoe, asking her to order whatever she liked.
“You did it on purpose, getting Aunt Yumi out of the house,” Zoe noted.
