"My great-grandfather came. He is my grandfather's father, a white- bearded old man," Hayden chirped.
Natalie was taken aback.
Hayden's great-grandfather, Peter...
She had seen him before. His old age was of no hindrance. In fact, he was spirited and vigorous.
"Well, you should spend more twith your greatgrandfather," Natalie replied.
"I like great-grandpa, but I don't like the woman that my great-grandfather brought." Hayden added, "She feels b*tchy." Natalie was a little speechless.
"Hayden, you're too young to know what that means." "It's true, Natalie." Hayden defended himself. "That woman pretends to be very close to me, but I can tell that she doesn't likeat all!" Natalie did not take Hayden's words to heart, thinking it was just child's talk.
Her tone was gentle. "Don't think too much about it, Hayden." Seeing that Natalie did not react too much, Hayden pouted but did not dwell on the matter further.
After chatting with Natalie for a while, he hung up the phone.
At 10 o'clock that night, Peter's eyelids were drooping sleepily.
His schedule was extremely accurate. Usually, he'd already be fast asleep at this hour.
Peter glanced at the tand asked Cecilia with great displeasure, "Why hasn't Tobias returned yet? It's already so late." Cecilia sighed slightly to herself.
Ever since Natalie's incident, Tobias had been returning only in the wee hours.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe forced a smile and. "Peter, Tobias is busy with work. It's hard to tell when he'll be hexactly." Peter was even more upset to hear that. He immediately glowered at her. "What do you mean busy? Is work more important than his own life?" Cecilia's smile turned even more awkward.
However, Yuna said softly, "Grandpa, it's normal for men to be career- driven. If Tobias was not focused on his career but was caught in lust instead, that would truly frustrate you, wouldn't it?" The expression on Peter's face eased quite a bit when he heard that.
He huffed. "Yuna knows just what to say." Cecilia remained calm on the outside, but a ripple of emotions had already stirred in her chest.
Peter had a fiery temper all this while, but when he faced Yuna, he seemed to have changed into another person. It seemed that he really liked Yuna very much.
Meanwhile, Peter still insisted on waiting up for Tobias.
"Well have to let Tobias to meet Yuna tonight no matter what," Peter said.
Cecilia's heart skipped a beat.
She didn't know how long they would have to wait.
Moreover, she was sure that when Tobias cback, he would definitely not give Peter the response he wanted. It was sure to stir a lot of trouble.
While Cecilia was still thinking about how to persuade Peter to go to bed, Yuna had softened her voice and coaxed, "Grandpa, isn't it bad luck for people to have their first meeting in the middle of the night? Anyway, we have plenty of tin Glevania now that we're here. The most important thing is that Grandpa needs to have a good rest." Her voice was very soft, like a gently flowing stream, which soothed him in an instant.
Peter narrowed his eyes. "I guess you're right. Well talk about it tomorrow, then." Yuna stood up. "Lethelp you to bed." When she saw that Peter had gone to bed, Cecilia finally heaved a sigh of relief.
There was a flash of deep thought in her eyes.
She wondered about Yuna's background. Why did Peter like her so much? Although she was likable and handled things gracefully, Peter had seen all kinds of women. Why would he treat Yuna so differently? Cecilia had a feeling that things were not as simple as they seemed.
After Peter and Yuna went to rest, Cecilia stayed up.
Her insomnia made it impossible to fall asleep, so she simply sat on the sofa and waited for Tobias.
When it was almost midnight, Tobias finally cback.
He wore a long black coat, accentuating his figure and making him look fierce and cold.
"Mother, you haven't slept yet?" Tobias walked in.
Cecilia's eyelashes fluttered as she said, "Tobias, you and Natalie..." "Mother, don't mention her to me." Tobias interrupted her in a hoarse voice.
Cecilia's eyes flickered slightly.
"Your grandfather is here." Cecilia changed the topic after a slight pause.
Tobias's eyes darkened slightly. "Why is he here?" Cecilia glanced at Tobias. "He brought a woman with him." She knew that her son was smart and there were a lot of things he could pick up at once.
As expected, Tobias's expression changed after hearing her words.
But he recovered very quickly.
He seemed to have a headache. "Grandpa is still so meddlesome." "Tobias, she's a nice girl," Cecilia added tentatively. Search the (Find) website on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.
She was not putting in a good word for Yuna, rather just wanted to see what Tobias' reaction.
"Mother." There seemed to be a helpless look on Tobias's elegant features. "Perhaps there are many nice girls in this world, but they all have nothing to do with me." Cecilia's heart skipped a beat.
She understood what Tobias just said.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAlthough Tobias didn't want to entangle himself with Natalie anymore, he didn't want to find another woman for himself either.
A trace of worry could not help but flash across Cecelia's eyes.
Could it be that he was planning to remain single for the rest of his life? Tobias was nowhere to be seen the next morning.
As expected, Peter was fuming, causing a huge ruckus.
He slammed the table loudly. "What the hell is going on with Tobias? I didn't even know when he cback last night and he sneaked out so early this morning. I call the way here. Don't tellthat he doesn't want to see me?" A flash of disappointment flitted across Yuna's face as well.
It was obvious that Yuna had purposely dolled herself up this morning.
She had changed into a dress that accentuated her figure, along with perfectly done-up makeup. Her luscious curls bounced off her shoulders, and it was obvious that she'd put her heart into it.
However, the disappointment disappeared in an instant.
Soon she comforted Peter. "Grandpa, don't be angry." "How can I not be!" "Grandpa, you should be proud of your grandson for being so busy." Peter's eyes widened in shock. "Why should I be proud of him? Proud that he's so busy that he even doesn't have the tto see his family?"
Yuna smiled. "Grandpa, think about it this way. Tobias comes from such a well-to-do family, and he's built up such a huge empire. Yet he's not arrogant and continues to throw himself into his work. How could you not be proud of him?" After that, she smiled at Peter with her twinkling, curved eyes.
Peter and Yuna looked at each other for a moment and then he suddenly broke into a grin, "You little girl, you sure know how to make someone happy." Peter finally calmed down.
However, as they had breakfast, Peter brought the matter up again.
"I'm going to personally give fobias a call later make sure that the two of you meet tonight." Hayden sat next to Peter. At Peter's words, the gears in Hayden's head started turning.
