Blimey, My Kid's the Heir to the Billionaire Boss! -
Chapter 775 Progress in Emotions
"What?" Micah frowned and asked, "Noah saw his mom?"
"No," Rylan replied confidently, "I blocked him, so he shouldn't have seen Sadie's face clearly."
"What do you mean 'shouldn't'?" Micah snapped.
"Yes, I failed in my duty," Rylan felt aggrieved in his heart but dared not argue.
"Micah, calm down," Andrew advised from the side, "This matter can't be kept secret forever. Even if the two sides haven't met recently, Sadie will definitely appear in the media on the day of the Sapphire Depths project unveiling. By then, everyone who knows her will know she's back!"
Upon hearing this, Micah's brows furrowed tightly as he asked, "Which day is the unveiling?"
"The 13th of next month," Andrew quickly replied, "Today is already the 29th!"
"So, we have sixteen days left," Micah said.
Micah tapped his knuckles on the leather seat, deep in thought. Suddenly, he told Rylan on the phone, "Go ask Ella how she's feeling. If possible, we'll have dinner together tonight." Rylan was taken aback for a moment but quickly responded, "Yes, I'll go ask and get back to you later!"
Micah hung up the phone, looking very serious. He needed to send Grandpa Clemens back to country Y as soon as possible so he could focus on solving the issues at hand. "Don't worry, we still have plenty of time to resolve this," Andrew reassured.
While Andrew was speaking, Rylan called, "Ms. Lingston is quite unwell and can't go out."
Micah was somewhat surprised; he had assumed that Ella would join him for dinner no matter what, but to his astonishment, she actually declined.
"That's fine." Micah ended the call.
"Ms. Lingston is quite seriously injured. I saw her yesterday, and she couldn't even get out of bed. Going out for dinner really isn't feasible for her," Andrew explained. "Let's discuss it in a few days. Let's deal with business matters first," said Micah.
"Understood," Andrew replied.
Micah had a busy day outside, declined social engagements in the evening, wanting to go home early to spend time with the children. However, when he arrived home, it was already past ten.
As soon as he entered, he saw Grandpa Clemens and Ella in the living room, drinking tea and playing chess.
Grandpa Clemens was in high spirits, laughing heartily, "Haha, Ella, you're really good at chess. You're the second person who's patient enough to play with me and keep winning."
Ella put down the chess piece, curiously gesturing in sign language, "Is the first one Micah?"
"No." Grandpa Clemens shook his head, sighing, "It's Micah's mother."
Ella was taken aback for a moment and hurriedly apologized, "I'm sorry. I shouldn't have brought up your sad memories."
"It's okay, it's all in the past," said Grandpa Clemens.
As Grandpa Clemens spoke, he noticed Micah walking in. The warm and friendly demeanor he had just disappeared, replaced by a stern expression as he immediately questioned, "Why are you back so late?" "I tried to come back early." Micah went straight upstairs. After a few steps, he remembered something, turned back, and asked, "Are you hungry? Would you like to have a late-night snack together?" Grandpa Clemens, who was drinking tea, was somewhat stunned by this statement.
He had gotten used to Micah's demeanor, but this sudden offer for a late-night snack took him by surprise.
"Sure, that's great. I'm hungry too," Ella smiled and gestured in sign language.
"Mary," Micah instructed, "please prepare something light to eat. I'll go upstairs to change and come back down."
"Yes, Mr. Clemens!" The butler promptly instructed the kitchen staff to prepare.
Micah quickly went upstairs.
Grandpa Clemens watched his retreating figure, then glanced at Ella and tentatively asked, "Ella, has Micah initiated any conversations with you these past few days?" "Today, he invited me to dinner, but I wasn't feeling well, so I didn't go." Ella gestured with her hands.
"Is that so?" Grandpa Clemens was very pleased, "That means your relationship is progressing!"
