Chapter 1003

Garland and Liza were brought to the Potter Mansion. Bewildered, they were pushed down onto the sofa. Randy and Erica leaned in, eyeing them with a mix of caution and suspicion.

“Why are you looking at me like that?” Liza huffed.

Garland fidgeted. “Is something wrong?”

“Suspicious, very suspicious,” Randy muttered, stroking his chin. “The son and daughter of the Eaton family are both here. Are you planning something big in Seamar City?”

Erica chimed in, “I’ve heard Fermin Eaton is a big shot overseas. He’s top-notch in every way and has a reputation for being decisive. How could someone like that wear cartoon pajamas?”

Garland, wearing SpongeBob pajamas, retorted, “I was sleeping when you brought me here. What’s wrong with my clothes? These are limited editions. You can’t even buy them.”

He stopped mid-sentence, sensing everyone’s gaze on him.

Randy asked, “We’re curious. You and your sister didn’t come to Seamar City just for sightseeing, right?”

Before Garland could respond, Liza blurted out, “Of course not.”

Everyone turned to look at her, and she quickly added, “I mean, I came to repay a debt. I don’t know why my brother is here.”

“Hey!” Garland tried to argue, but suspicious looks from Randy and Erica silenced him.

Then he remembered something Juan had told him: “Never let anyone guess your thoughts. That way, you stay in control.”

He cleared his throat and leaned back on the sofa. “Why should I tell you?”

Debra and Marion raised their eyebrows at him.

It was a bit comical watching Garland try to act like a boss in cartoon pajamas.

“Alright, forget it,” Debra said, standing up. “But I presume you don’t have a place to stay. Why not stay here with us? It’ll be more fun with more people around.”

“We have a place to stay,” Garland declined. “We have properties in Seamar City.”

“Oh, come on,” Randy said, pulling Garland up. “The best place in Seamar City is the Potter Mansion. Don’t be shy.”

Erica, with a fake smile, did the same to Liza. “Girl, I like your character. Just stay with us. We can have tea, do our hair, and have a great time together.”

Their overly hospitable welcome puzzled the siblings.
