Chapter 524Chapter 524 Never Let Her Down in This Lifetime
Early the next day.
After Aletta finished breakfast with her grandparents and the four children, they suddenly heard some
commotion outside the door.
Lyla quickly ran to the French window, pulled back the
curtains, and exclaimed, “Wow, there are so many cars parked outside!”
These cars belonged to the Hills, all neatly lined up at the entrance.
Soon, several black-clad bodyguards got out of the cars, with Jason among them.
Seeing this, Lyla immediately rushed to open the door and exclaimed, “Mommy, Daddy is here!”
Today, Jason was dressed in a well-fitted dark suit, looking exceptionally formal. He even wore a tie,
appearing composed and dignified. Every move he made exuded an aura of nobility and charm. He
was incredibly handsome!
He emitted the allure of a mature man, giving a sense of security just by looking at him.
After he got out of the car, Eaton instructed the bodyguards to start moving things inside the house.
Aletta, with the four children, instinctively made way at the entrance.
Watching this scene, she couldn’t help but be surprised and asked, “Are you moving in?”
At that moment, Jason also walked over.

All these big and small boxes were betrothal gifts?
Isn’t this… too much?
Aletta was completely stunned, unable to utter a word.
Old Mr. Hill also came down from the car, seeing her expression, he smiled and said, “Girl, is it
necessary to be so surprised? I think it’s still not enough!”
Aletta glanced at the crowded living room, which had become a bit cluttered in such a short time, and
couldn’t help but laugh, “Still not enough?”
Mr. Rogers and his wife arrived after hearing the news.
Seeing the scene, the old gentleman exclaimed, “These are all good things!”
“Yes!”
Old Mr. Hill replied with a smile, “Of course, the things given to my daughter-in-law must be good!”
While speaking, the items were quickly moved inside, and both parties took a seat in the house.
Old Mr. Hill took a sip of tea, as if brewing something.
Then, he looked serious, with a slightly solemn tone, and said, “After so many years, sitting down again
to discuss the marriage, I feel a bit ashamed. Back then, I personally promised both of you that I would
treat Aletta well, but in the end… I didn’t live up to it. She suffered so much, and I’m truly sorry!”
Upon hearing this, before the elderly couple could speak, Jason spoke sincerely, “It was my fault back
then. I treated Aletta poorly.”Old Mr. Hill immediately echoed, “Yes, this kid was indeed unreliable.”
“But, the Hills also have their share of responsibility… However, this young couple has reconciled
against all odds. It’s not easy, so, with a humble face. I’ve come to propose again, hoping that both of
you would agree to this marriage.”
After hearing this, the elderly couple, the Rogers Family, exchanged glances and instantly understood
their intentions.
Past matters were not brought up again, but the attitude in seeking their approval was indeed
commendable!
With a smile on Mr. Rogers’ face, he spoke first, “We definitely agree to the marriage. Jason is an
outstanding young man, and we can see the current situation between him and Aletta. We know that
he genuinely cares for her… We don’t have many concerns.”
The old lady nodded in agreement.
However, she had more concerns. “I have a few things to say to Jason,” she said, grabbing her
granddaughter’s hand and affectionately patting it. She spoke gently to him, “Once your two settle
down, make sure to take good care of our little girl. She has suffered since she was young, and after
being. recognized as part of the Rogers Family, she has endured so much. The Rogers Family owes
her an apology too! Now that we, the two old folks, are getting older and have fewer desires, we just
hope that she will have a peaceful and happy future, filled with well-being. So, after you two get
married, you must not let her down again!”
Jason heard these words and couldn’t help but look at Aletta, and earnestly said, “I will, absolutely!
Never again will I let her down!” In this lifetime, he would never disappoint her again!The old lady nodded with reassurance, reluctantly letting go of Aletta’s hand and handing it over to
Jason. Sensing his firm. grip. Aletta smiled and looked into his eyes. In their gaze, there was nothing
but deep affection for each other. The elders watched this scene of deep love and felt content.
At this moment, the four children spoke up, saying, “Grandpa and Grandma, rest assured! If Dad
mistreats Mom, we won’t allow it.”
“Yeah, if Dad makes Mom angry, we’ll make him kneel and wash clothes on the washboard!”
Old Mr. Hill was the first to stand up and enthusiastically agreed, “That’s right! We’ll count on you to
keep an eye on him!”

“No problem!” The four kids patted their chests and promised with adorable earnestness.
With the matter settled, Old Mr. Hill took the opportunity to mention, “I’ve invited Jay and his wife to
have dinner together tonight.”
The two old folks of the Rogers Family glanced at each other. Although they didn’t particularly want to
see Jenny, the Hills had already made the suggestion, so they didn’t want to make things difficult either.
Mr. Rogers nodded and said, “Alright, you can make the arrangements.”
Seeing that everything went so smoothly, Old Mr. Hill was in a great mood. “Let Jason handle it. I don’t
have much to do today. It’s been a while since we played chess together. How about a couple of
games?”
“Sure!” The two old gentlemen became enthusiastic when it came to playing chess and eagerly set up
the chessboard.As Old Mr. Hill made his moves, he urged Jason, “You don’t have anything to do here. Go back to the
company and make more money for your family!”
Jason looked at his grandfather’s urging attitude and responded somewhat helplessly, “Alright.” Even
without Old Mr. Hill’s reminder, he was already planning to return to the company. Tomorrow, he would
accompany Aletta on their trip abroad, so he needed to take care of his current tasks.
After Aletta finished brewing tea for the two old gentlemen, she got up together with Jason and said,
“Let me go with you.
There are some data adjustments that need to be made in the R&D department. It’s best to resolve
them today, so we can have peace of mind tomorrow.””
“Okay,” Jason agreed.
The two of them then left together. Jason went to his office at Hill Group, while Aletta headed to the
R&D department. Everything was going smoothly.
However, in the afternoon, Eaton received a phone call. The caller was Robin. Urgent and anxious, his
voice rushed through the line, “Eaton, I have an emergency to inform you… Here’s the situation. A few
days ago, after I brought my daughter back, I arranged for her to receive treatment, including seeing a
psychologist. Initially, she seemed fine, but today, she managed to sneak away… I don’t know if she
went back to Los Angeles again, so I wanted to ask Eaton or Mr. Hill to let me know if you come across
her… Please don’t hurt her.”
Upon hearing this, Eaton furrowed his brow and couldn’t help but say, “Can’t you even keep an injured
person under control?” The memory of Joe’s unreasonable behavior was giving him a headache.
Robin also had his grievances, “I’ve arranged for people to watch her as much as possible. I even
assigned several bodyguards to her residence, but I never expected her to find a way to escape…”After listening to his words, Eaton felt deeply speechless. After hanging up the phone, he realized that
he needed to inform their master about this matter. He turned around and went to find Jason to report.
Jason’s previously good mood started to fade upon hearing the news, and his face grew serious. He
instructed Eaton,
“Keep an eye on her and don’t let her get near Hill Group. Alette and I are doing well now, and I don’t
want any disturbances.”
Eaton nodded in agreement.
