Chapter 442
Although Wilfred‘s voice was grand, his expression was peaceful.
Alexander was stunned. He looked at Lily, had a realization, and immediately said, “You‘re right.” He
retracted his hand, took a bow, and said respectfully, “As your grandson–in–law, I wish you great fortune
and a long life.”
“G–Grandson–in–law?” The old man of the Lodge family was stunned and he widened his eyes. Were
the young people nowadays so wanton in their actions?
One moment it was Mr. Lodge, and the next he declared himself the grandson–in–law.
“The Lodge family does not recognize you yet.” The usually steady Justin was not able to contain
himself.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWilfred had seen a lot in life. He raised a hand to calm Justin down, then said dryly, “Alexander, you are
of the older generation. It‘s reasonable for you to address me the way Lily does, but to call yourself my
grandson–in–law… that‘s premature, isn‘t it?” As a whole, they had not recognized the relationship
between the two yet. Thus they would not recognize Alexander as a relation.
Alexander glanced at Lily. She was blinking, speechless. He could guess that she had not told her family
about her relationship with him yet, so he did not push. He said, “It‘s
okay. I can wait. May it be sooner or later, I‘m here to stay.”
Mr. Lodge was speechless.
Justin was speechless. Lily was speechless as well, thinking of him as assertive. Wilfred decided that
this topic was embarrassing. Furthermore, it was a sensitive topic, so he changed the subject, “I heard
that La Beaute Group has expanded to more than ten countries recently?”
“We are only dabbling,” Alexander answered humbly.
They were far from dabbling. They had a company based in each country, and the market share in the
countries was far from modest.
La Beaute Group specialized in makeup. They had gotten involved in the movie and advertising industry
and were dominant in the business. To have such a large market share overseas was very impressive.
When it came to business, Justin respected Alexander a lot. They were the same age, but Justin was far
behind in business. Furthermore, the Russell family used minimal manpower to expand and establish
themselves as one of the four prominent families. They managed to prosper.
However, that was a different topic altogether. Just because he was good at business did not mean he
would make a good son in–law. In the past, even someone unimpressive like Nathaniel was not serious
about his relationship. What more a person of Alexander‘s status? How serious he was about Lily was
still yet to be seen.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“I‘ve known your father for a long time but have not spoken to him in a while. How is he doing?”
Lily was surprised to hear her grandfather say this. She never thought that her grandfather knew
Alexander‘s father. She forgot she had never met his parents after being together so long. “He‘s in good
health. He and my mother are traveling the world. I don‘t meet him very often.”
After listening to his explanation, Lily understood. It was no wonder she had never met them. It turned
out that they were visiting different countries. “Traveling the world is great.” Tapping his fingers against
his wheelchair, Wilfred was thoughtful. “It‘s best to travel while you‘re young and have a strong body. If I
tried to travel now, I wouldn‘t be able to.”
While he stroked his leg, he sounded crestfallen. “If you wish to travel, it‘s possible. We could
accompany you,” Alexander said with a smile after he cast Lily a glance.
His expression comforted Lily. It even felt like encouragement. She suddenly found the courage to walk
over and grab Wilfred‘s hand. “Yes, Grandpa, if you wish to travel, we can go with you.” Wilfred was very
touched when she grabbed his hand. He looked down at her hand on his with a complicated expression.
