SWNOVELS Chapter Making 67
Chapter 67
When the Reed family got out of the car, they were overwhelmed by the beauty of the courtyard where the flowers, which burst into a carnival of colors, and the slate–tiled floor set each other off beautifully.
To their utter astonishment, a European–style villa was built in the natural landscape exquisitely. Its sheer size and luxury almost took their breath away.
How could they believe they would live in such a luxurious villa from now on?
They felt they were in a dream
Gilmore, who had parked the car, came up to them and said, “Mom, Dad, Everly, you must be tired. Let’s go inside!”
The three of them snapped back to reality and followed Gilmore and Gerald into the villa.
When they arrived in the living room that was ultimate in luxury, they were stunned again.
A sparkling crystal chandelier, soft leather sofa, expensive wooden floorboards, European–style closets, elegant mahogany
stairs…
The various expensive ornaments in the villa dazzled the Reed family.
They couldn’t help holding their breath.
In their eyes, how could an average person like them live in such an extravagant villa?
It was absolutely a residence of the rich.
Gilmore said to them, “You must be tired. Here, sit down and rest your weary
legs on the s
sofa.”
Harlan and his wife, as well as Everly, nodded in a daze and then sat down on the sofa. However, they felt quite self- conscious as if they were nothing but uninvited guests.
Seeing that his family was nervous, Gilmore ordered Gerald to make some coffee. “Gerald, take the coffee tin out of the drawer. Make some coffee for my parents and sister.”
Gerald immediately said yes, then took out the beans from the drawer and began to brew it.
After making a few cups of coffee, Gerald placed them on the table before Gilmore’s parents and sister. He said, “Please have
some coffee!
The three of them nodded. They didn’t know what to say or do so they could only pick up the cups in front of them and sip their coffee.
The high–end coffee emitted a rich, mellow fragrance, which was endless in the aftertaste. As soon as they took a sip, they felt rested and refreshed.
They couldn’t help but praise it silently!
After taking a few sips of coffee, they could finally relax and talk without constraint.
It seemed that they began to adapt to their extremely luxurious new home.
Seeing his parents and sister get relaxed, Gilmore knew that the coffee worked. This was the reason why Gilmore asked Gerald to make them some coffee.

Gilmore knew that his parents and sister were ordinary people. They never expected that they would live in a luxurious villa worth more than a hundred million dollars one day.
Undoubtedly, it was a huge shock for anyone..
However, coffee could make the medicine go down.
It was effective for them to relieve the pressure.
Gilmore looked at the time on his mobile phone. It was past ten o’clock at noon. He said to Gerald, “Gerald, Fll nip out and get some groceries. You take my parents and sister upstairs to have a look. Also, let them choose their own rooms. I’m going
out.”
Gerald nodded and said, “Okay.”
Then, Gilmore said to his parents and sister, “Take your time”
His parents and sister nodded.
Gilmore left the living room and drove to the supermarket in his Mercedes.
Instead of going out for dinner, he chose to go out to buy groceries and cook at home.
He wanted to help his parents get used to their new home more quickly.
After all, cooking a meal here could be the fastest way for them to adapt to a new environment.
There was nothing like making them a meal to make them feel at home.
An hour later, Gilmore drove back to the villa from the supermarket.
When he returned to the living room with two large bags of various fish, vegetables, and fruits, he found that his parents and sister seemed to have completely adapted to their new home.
In the living room, his father was sitting on the sofa with his legs crossed and drinking coffee. He was watching a hit mystery series on TV, one of his generation’s favorite TV dramas.
His mother and Everly, on the other hand, were cleaning the spacious kitchen as getting themselves into the role of housewives.
Gilmore was speechless.
A moment ago, he was worried that his parents and sister would not get used to the new house so soon.
It turned out that his concern was misplaced.
It was better this way. At the very least, he didn’t need to worry that they wouldn’t get used to the new environment.
“My son, you’re back.” Upon seeing Gilmore, Harlan immediately shouted out in happiness
Harlan hurriedly poured a cup of coffee and said to Gilmore, “You must be tried. Come and have a cup of coffee.”
Gilmore could not help but be stunned. His father had already regarded himself as the owner of the villa?
It was amazing how quickly his father adapted.
Gilmore snapped back to reality and said to Harlan, “Dad, maybe later. I’ll take those groceries to the kitchen first.”
Then Gilmore ordered Gerald who sat on the sofa, “Gerald, there are some rice and olive oil in the trunk. Go and get
them

Gerald said yes then went out to carry things.
When Sophia saw Gilmore carrying the fish and vegetables into the kitchen, she smiled happily.
Needless to say, Sophia’s favorite activity was cooking
She would feel bored if she didn’t cook for a day. The groceries that Gilmore bought could satisfy her desire to make a meal.
Gilmore handed the groceries he had bought to his mother while Gerald moved rice and oil to the kitchen.
Thereafter. Sophia asked them to wait in the living room for dinner while Everly stayed in the kitchen to help her.
When the meal was ready, the tantalizing fragrance filled the air. The Reed family and Gerald sat around a table and enjoyed their first meal in the villa.
The reason why it was called the first meal was that during the days when Gilmore and Gerald lived in the villa, they had never cooked. They either ordered takeaways or went out to ear
However, Gilmore had to admit that his mother’s cooking was much tastier than the takeaways.
In the afternoon, Gilmore drove his parents and sister to a nearby commercial square.
The reason why he took them to the commercial square was to buy some clothes for his parents.
At luxury shops in the shopping mall, he bought four or five sets of clothes and shoes for his parents respectively, which cost him more than a hundred thousand dollars in total.
Of course, his parents reacted the same way as Everly when he bought her brand–name clothes. They shook their heads, unwilling to let Gilmore spend so much money on their clothes.
However, how could they possibly make Gilmore change his mind?
Walking out of the mall, Harlan was still grumbling, “Gilmore, although you won a lottery ticket of two million dollars, you will soon use up all the money if you remain that reckless.”
“That’s right. We don’t need to wear such expensive clothes. You have to save money for your wedding and your children.” Sophia also reprimanded Gilmore.
Gilmore’s lips twitched as he thought to himself, ‘I haven’t even gotten married. Where can I get a child? Mother, mother, you are over–worried, aren’t you?”
However, Gilmore knew that her parents wanted to save his money, so he said, “I know, Dad and Mom. I’ll be careful with my money in the future”
Only then did his parents stop nagging.
At this moment, Harlan seemed to have seen something, and his face lit up with a smile. He pointed at a locked glass door in front of him and said, “Hey, the shop over there seems to be for rent!”
Gilmore was stunned. He didn’t know why his father was so interested
He couldn’t resist asking, “Dad, this shop is for rent. What’s wrong?”
Harlan studied the shop seriously with his hands behind his back before nodding in satisfaction, “Well, considering its size and location, it’s a perfect place for a restaurant.”
Then, he looked at Gilmore and his wife as he said, “Why don’t we rent it and open a restaurant?”
