Super Sweetheart of the CEO Daddy
Chapter 1379

Alvina was threatened and scared, Joseph would definitely not let it go at that. Benson's confession, to him, was extremely useful; Barry was like a poison tumor, making him want to quickly remove it. This time, the incident happened to become a blade in Joseph's hand, which could directly stab into Barry's chest, allowing Old President to learn this lesson.

However, once this matter was brought out to stab the Old President, the news of Alvina's engagement with him would naturally spread like wildfire. Thus, this was what Joseph had to consider at the moment.

The two elders sat on the main seat, and Joseph, as the junior, personally boiled water for a cup of tea. He revealed the etiquette of a junior without a doubt in order to gain the approval of the Old Master Miller Although he was close to seventy years old, under his control, his two sons still did not take over the authority he had over the Miller Family. He was still the loudest speaker, and that was the main reason why Alvina was able to do whatever he wanted in the Miller Family.

If the Old Master Miller retreated one day, Alvina's situation would be very disadvantageous. The Old Master Miller had previously considered not leaving his own property rights to his little granddaughter and did not want her to get involved in the family's mess. However, if a woman did not have sufficient wealth in her hands, she might not be able to live a happy life.

This was why the Old Master decided to book a tough family for Alvina so that she could have someone to protect her in this storm.

"Grandpa Miller, please have some tea!" Joseph said softly as he placed the teacup in front of Old Master Miller.

Old Master Miller took a sip of the tea and praised: "Not bad, the tea smells good!"

Mr. Grant also chuckled happily when he saw his grandson being praised.

"You two grandfathers called me over for tea. Is it because of my granddaughter Alvina?" The old tutor was being shrewd as he asked directly.

Joseph looked at his grandfather, who indicated for him to say it out loud, thus, Joseph told the news that he was going to publicize the engagement of two people to Old Master Miller.

The mouthful of tea that Old Master Miller had just brought to his lips almost sprayed out as he forcefully swallowed it down. However, he coughed to the point that his old face was flushed red, as he forcefully placed the teacup on the table: "What nonsense is this, that old bastard actually wanted to harm my granddaughter?"

"Grandfather Miller, the situation is so grim that I won't dare to hide it from you. I'll do my best to protect Alvina, but this lowly person is hard to defend, and I'm also very worried. If the news of my engagement with Alvina were to be made public, I'm afraid dangers from all sides would rush over. If I don't make the news public, Alvina had to endure all the grievances and shock she had suffered." Joseph analyzed with a calm voice.

"Is there no other way to solve this? I didn't introduce my granddaughter to you to share the danger with you, but you should know that my damned son only left Alvina with mw. Although Alvina is not some smart girl, andit's precisely because of her silly that I'm worried even more. " Old Master Miller was truly frightened and angry.

Hearing the word "silly", Joseph couldn't hold it in, he choked on his tea, and coughed again.

"Joseph has some sense of propriety!" Mr. Grant looked at his grandson with a serious expression. If he lost his composure like this, he was afraid that Old Master Miller would cancel the marriage in a fit of rage. Then, wouldn't his heart, which was stolen by the girl, be shattered into pieces?

Joseph used a lot of strength before he managed to hold back his coughing.

If Alvina were to hear his grandfather use the word to describe her, he didn't know how rich her expression would be.

"Mr. Miller Alvina has really very good personality. Her heart is clearly like a crystal. It must because of your protection. You're unwilling to even let her endure these hardships. When I marry her in the future, I'll naturally protect her even more carefully, take care of her, and prevent her from being frightened. However, in the face of such a situation, it's indeed rather worrisome."

Joseph hurriedly expressed his affection towards Alvina. He was really afraid that Old Master Miller would cancel their marriage.

Old Master Miller sighed, he stared out the window, his eyes suddenly going red, in the next second, he took a tissue to wipe the tears at the corner of his eyes.

This action shocked the Grant family. Did Old Master Miller's anger due to being sad mean that the marriage was going to come to an end?

"When Alvina was thirteen, he fell into the water once and almost failed to save her. Do you know how hard it was for me to raise her like this? Every single day is like a day stolen from heaven. I'm just worried that one day something might happen to her again, I really didn't know what to rely on to live on anymore. "Old Master Miller was extremely sad, he was truly worried for his granddaughter's safety. He had lost her once, and the feeling of recovering from this loss was not something an ordinary person could experience.

Joseph's heart stopped beating; her eyes stared straight at Old Master Miller as he wiped the corner of her eyes. He was so nervous that his breathing slowed down, and he quickly used her eyes to ask his grandfather for help.

Mr. Grant remained silent. After all, he didn't wish to have such an unforgettable and sorrowful experience. A person who hadn't experienced it wouldn't be able to comfort them.

Mr. grant took a long time to calm down, and continued to take a sip of tea cup: "After she survived from drowning, I began to superstition and went to an expert to tell her fortune. That person said that she was over twenty years of age and needed to experience tribulation, but if she could still live to the age of twenty-five, her fate would be different. I originally thought that if I could introduce her to your family, she would definitely not be in any danger, and Grant family's character is decent, and I trust you very much. Today, Joseph has taken a fancy to my little girl, and his love is blissful, everything is too perfect for me, i seems like I have found another great tribulation, and I don't even know what kind of danger awaits her."

Joseph's back was covered in cold sweat. If he could, he would have reached out to wipe his forehead.

Mr. Grant who was standing at the side remained silent, causing Joseph to instantly want to cry. This grandson of his had faced such a huge pressure and test, why hadn't his grandfather spoken a few good words for him? Is he my grandson or not?

"Grandpa, this is the scientific era. Such a superstitious thing ..."

"Joseph, stop it!" Mr.Grant scolded him.

Joseph's entire body shivered, only then did he realize that he had said the wrong thing, the Old Master Miller was worried that confused, that's why he was superstitious, he was still pointing fingers, and was indeed scolding.

"The fortune-teller said that the calamity must be experienced. Joseph, Grandfather has no other intentions. Right now, let's think of a way to get out of this difficult situation together. Tell me, do you have any solution?" Old Master Miller swept his gaze across Joseph's face. Seeing he was about to wipe away his sweat, Mr. Grant nodded in satisfaction in his heart. Looks like his performance just now was pretty successful, scaring this young lad into being obedient.

"Grandfather, I do have a method right now, but it will require two families to put on an act." Joseph hurriedly expressed his opinion.

After all, even if he was extremely confident in his own appearance and the Old Master Miller didn't marry his granddaughter, he still couldn't do anything about it. He couldn't steal it and he couldn't be fooled either.

"Tell me about it!" Old Master Miller was satisfied, as long as there was a way to solve the problem.

"I hope that the two families will host an engagement ceremony, but at the banquet, Alvina and I will not be present. Let others feel that this marriage is only agreed by the elders of the two families. My relationship with Alvina is at odds. Naturally, other people will no longer focus on Alvina and this relationship.

The two old men looked at each other.

"Don't worry, Grandpa Miller. This is just a temporary grievance. I won't miss a single bit of my feelings for her!" Joseph hurriedly got filled up.
