Chapter 54

Robin drove away, and Gilmore returned to the restaurant.

Seeing that his parents had already packed and wiped the table, Gilmore said to them, “Mom, Dad, I have something important to tell you”

Hearing that their son had something important to say, Sophia and Harlan sat down.

Earlier, because her son provided important clues to the police, Sophia had received his reward of 40,000 thousand, so in her opinion, what her son wanted to tell them must have something to do with Richard’s case and helping the police get rid of Kennard and his gang.

Like an attentive student, she looked at her son expectantly and said. “Son, what’s the important thing? Tell us!”

Seeing that his sister was not present, Gilmore shouted upwards to the second floor, “Everly, come down quickly. I have something to tell you.”

“Got it. I’ll be right down” Everly answered from upstairs.

After a while, Everly came down from the second floor. She looked at Gilmore and asked, “Brother, why are you looking for

Gilmore pointed at the stool and said, “Sit down. I’ll tell you slowly.”

Although Everly had doubts, she still sat down as asked.

Gilmore then looked at his parents and sister and said, “Mom, Dad, Everly, I want to take you to Oakhaven the next few days to settle down. What do you think?

A few days ago, when he had told his parents that he was moving to Oakhaven, his parents had mistakenly thought that he wanted them to open a local restaurant in Oakhaven.

The appearance of Lance and his endless troublemaking had also given Gilmore no chance to tell his parents of his plan to move to Oakhaven.

Now that there was no one else to disturb them, Gilmore decided to seriously talk to them about moving.

Sophia and Harlan both smiled and said, “Gilmore, you mentioned Oakhaven before, and that it lacked local restaurants like ours. We are willing to try Oakhaven, so we have no objection to going there.”

Everly frowned and looked at Gilmore awkwardly. She said, “But how am I to attend school? I’m going to take the college

entrance examination soon.”

Gilmore said, “You don’t have to worry about that. I’ve already found someone in Oakhaven to replace you a famous high school that you can enroll in. You can continue to study in Oakhaven

If Everly left Elmwood High School for Oakhaven, the first thing she needed to figure out was where she would study. However, this was not a difficult problem for Gilmore.

He merely called David, and as soon as he finished speaking, the head of Oakhaven’s richest family immediately found a school for Everly, and it was even a famous high school that many rich people couldn’t enter.

Hearing that Gilmore had found a good school for herself in Oakhaven, Everly was happy and immediately said, “Then I am willing to go to Oakhaven with you.”

After all, Oakhaven

the capital. It was far more prosperous than Elmwood. Everly was definitely eager to go there,

“Well, since there is no problem, Everly and I will go to the school to complete the transfer procedure later. We will go to Oakhaven tomorrow.” Gilmore looked at his family and said.

Sophia, Harlan, and Everly had no objections.

Hence, not long after lunch. Gilmore took Everly to the county on his motorcycle to complete the transfer procedure.

Everly asked Gilmore many questions along the way to Oakhaven about her new high school. Of course, she also asked where there were good food and fun things in Oakhaven. She was as happy as a little girl.

By the time they completed the transfer procedures, it was already past four o’clock in the afternoon.

Gilmore took Everly to the mall to buy some clothes and shoes she liked.

Because it was not easy for her parents to make money in their small restaurant, the sensible Everly did not use to buy many clothes and shoes. If she bought clothes and shoes, they were also relatively cheap.

Therefore, on this trip to Oakhaven, Gilmore bought good quality expensive clothes and shoes for her.

When Gilmore paid, Everly found out that her clothes and shoes cost more than 2000 dollars. She immediately pulled her brother to leave. This price was truly too expensive!

Gilmore pulled her back and then took out his bank card. He asked the cashier to complete the payment.

The well–dressed cashier handed the bank card and the receipt to Gilmore with a smile and said, “Sir, it’s 2000 dollars in total. This is your bank card. Please keep it well. We look forward to seeing you again.”

Gilmore took the bank card and the receipt and put them in his pocket.

Then, he said to Everly, who was still in a daze. “Let’s go!”

Only then did Everly come back to her senses. She carried the bags containing her clothes and shoes and followed Gilmore out of the mall.

As soon as they walked out of the mall, Everly couldn’t help but ask Gilmore, “Brother, why do you have so much money to buy me clothes and shoes?”

Gilmore said calmly, “I won the lottery. Come, we’ve walked for an afternoon, I’ll take you to my hotel room to rest.”

Gilmore looked at the time. It was already six o’clock in the evening and the sky was dark. He decided to take Everly to Milky Way Hotel to rest.

After hearing Gilmore’s words, Everly was even more shocked. Her brother had booked a room at Milky Way Hotel?

Milky Way Hotel was the most luxurious hotel in Elmwood. It was also the only five–star hotel. Any room was worth at least a few hundred dollars a night.

It would take less than half an hour to get back to Springvale by car, so Everly didn’t understand why her brother wanted to book a room in Milky Way Hotel. It was such a waste.

Moreover, this kind of spendthrift behavior was not common ofher brother. Because their family was not very rich, she and her brother had always been frugal and had never spent money carelessly.

It was the first time that Everly had seen someone spending money as carelessly as Gilmore. Therefore, Everly couldn’t help but ask, “Brother, did you win a lot of money?

Gilmore got on his motorcycle, started the engine, and answered casually, “Yes, a lot.”

Then, he said to Everly, “Quick, get on and grab onto my clothe

Chapter 54

Everly was still wondering about what amount her brother was referring to. When she heard him ask her to get on the motorcycle, she quickly agreed, got on, and grabbed Gilmore’s clothes with one hand,

As the engine puffed, their motorcycle steered towards Milky Way Hotel.

Inside a luxurious hotel room

When Everly saw the luxurious hotel room her brother booked, she couldn’t help but be stunned.

Gilmore lay on Gerald’s bed. He pointed at his own bed and said to Everly, “I slept on that bed. You can sleep on mine first, and I’ll sleep on Gerald’s.”

Only then did Everly realize that the hotel room had not been booked earlier that day, but had been booked for some time.

But Gilmore had been staying in Springvale for the past few days so the hotel room was left empty. How much would that

cost?
