Super Sweetheart of the CEO Daddy -
Chapter 1530
Alvina and Joseph Grant returned to the living room of the Old Master Miller and coincidentally met Nathan Miller and Paul Miller walking out. When the two of them saw Joseph Grant, a trace of fear flashed past their eyes, but very quickly, they came over to greet him with smiles.
"Alvina, congratulations. Uncle will prepare a generous gift to properly send you out." Nathan Miller smiled and said the words of blessings, his face looked fake.
Alvina said lightly: "Uncle, no need to be so polite."
Paul Miller also laughed at his side: "Alvina. You are very compatible with Mr. Vice-President, you will be very lucky, I wish you two the best."
Alvina was a little polite to her Third Uncle because, in her impression, what Third Uncle loved to do the most was to mix well with mud and mud, and never show off his abilities. Originally, Alvina did not like people like him either, but with Second Uncle's support, she felt that it would be much easier to get along with him.
"Thank you, Third Uncle." Alvina smiled at him.
Joseph Grant stood at the side and looked at the two men who had fake smiles on their faces with his sharp eyes, not saying a single word.
The Old President had already pulled them into his group, so Joseph Grant naturally would not be too polite with them.
"Mr. Vice-President... I don't know what to call you anymore." Nathan Miller then smiled and greeted Joseph Grant.
"Uncle, there's no need to be polite. Since you think of me as a family member, just call me by my name." Joseph Grant said indifferently.
"That's fine. You and her are getting engaged. Sooner or later, we'll be family. In the future, I'll call you Joseph." Nathan Miller immediately nodded and replied.
Miller family's two uncles also felt a little awkward, they did not say much and quickly left.
Alvina snorted angrily, "What family, what they said sounded good. They have such a bad daughter. If it wasn't for Grandfather, I really would have treated them as strangers."
"Alvina, don't be angry. People like them aren't worth it. The only thing you need to do now is to accompany your grandfather. He will truly help you with this family." Seeing the anger on her face, Joseph Grant quickly comforted her gently.
"Yeah, it's not worth getting angry over such a person. Let's go in." Alvina nodded.
When the two of them stepped into the living room, they saw Old Master Miller sitting on the sofa with a dark expression. The Grant family members also had solemn expressions, and only Wendy Grant was wearing her earphones to watch the movie.
"Grandfather, aunt, what happened?" Alvina immediately felt that something was amiss and asked.
The Old Master Miller said angrily: "I'm afraid your two uncles have already gone to the Old President."
"Huh?" Alvina had a surprised expression on her face. She looked at the man beside her: "You couldn't have known this a long time ago, right?"
Joseph Grant's handsome face slightly changed, he was silent for two seconds, then nodded and replied: "Yes, I already knew."
"Then why didn't you tell me?" Alvina frowned, somewhat dissatisfied.
Joseph Grant laughed lightly, then said helplessly: "I don't want to tell you guys, but I just don't want to make things difficult for you guys. After all, the essence of the election requires a company to compete in, your uncle has his ideas, we cannot moral kidnap him, of course, the promise that Mr. President gave them, I am not certain I can give them, they chose benefits, this is also a business choice, they are right."
"But..." Alvina felt a little uncomfortable.
Joseph's father nodded his head, agreeing with his son's considerations, "Joseph is right. We will not interfere with the positions of others. Politics should not be mixed with relationships. Old Master Miller, however, said with hatred: "These two unfilial sons, they came to anger me on purpose."
"
"Grandfather, don't be angry." Alvina quickly walked to her grandfather's side and reached out her hand to help him vent his anger: "It's their choice who Uncle wants to support, that's their problem. Grandfather, don't be angry, your body is more important."
"Joseph, I'm sorry. I never expected that they would throw themselves at your enemy at such a time." Back then, when he had promised Alvina, he had wanted to help him but now, it seemed that he was too old to make a decision. The company was completely taken over by his son, and even if he wanted to help, he would not be able to do so.
Joseph Grant immediately comforted his softly, "Grandfather, don't worry, I'm confident."
Joseph's father followed to console him. "That's right since he said so, he must be well-prepared. Old Master, don't be angry."
Old Grant sighed lightly, "Letting Joseph fight in politics by himself is my fault as his grandfather. Back then, I forced him into politics so that he could be treated as my pride. However, I don't know if he is willing to walk this path and the pressure he is enduring by himself."
Seeing his grandfather sigh again, Joseph Grant quickly smiled and said: "Grandfather, the reason why I chose this path was not because I was forced by you. On the contrary, I have to thank you for giving me directions, allowing me to walk today, regardless of anything, until today. You are my grandfather, and even more so the mentor of my life. I will not let you down."
Alvina's eyes sparkled as she looked at the man who was filled with confidence and determination. She suddenly felt that being able to fall in love with him was truly a happy thing.
It was already past nine o'clock, Joseph Grant and Alvina were also preparing to leave. The Grant family elders also stood up, intending to leave.
Old Master Miller saw them to the door and waved goodbye.
Alvina sat on the carriage and looked unwillingly at her grandfather. Seeing his old figure disappearing from her line of sight, her tears immediately flowed down.
She quickly lowered her face so that the man wouldn't notice her tears.
"Don't worry, this is not a separation. Even if you marry me, I will make you come back and stay with your grandfather every day. If your grandfather is willing, he can also move in with us." How could Joseph Grant not notice her sorrowful mood?
She had grown up in this place. Now she had to leave because she suddenly fell in love with someone. This kind of feeling of loss couldn't be made up for.
In the past, when Joseph Grant was still in high school, he took his sister's hand and walked around the garden. When he suddenly thought about how his sister would have to hold another man's hand when she grew up and live in another place, he felt extremely uncomfortable.
He could imagine the Old Master Miller's feelings and could understand Alvina's reluctance to part.
"Yes." Alvina leaned into his embrace, feeling much better.
Not long after Alvina and the rest left, the Old Master was about to return to his room to rest, when suddenly, Victoria and Amy Miller walked in.
"Grandfather, I... I have something to say to you. "When Victoria saw the old man, she was so scared that her face turned pale and he was trembling in fear.
Old Master Miller looked at his two granddaughters and frowned. "It's already so late, if there's anything you want to say, let's talk about it tomorrow."
After Amy Miller heard her grandfather's words, she hurriedly pushed at Victoria's arm and urged her in a small voice, "Sis, you can't wait any longer. If you wait any longer, you won't even have the chance to save yourself."
Victoria's brain wasn't as sharp as Amy Miller's, so naturally, she had to listen to everything she said. She quickly kneeled on the ground with a thump: "Grandfather, I can't wait until tomorrow, I'm going to say it now."
Seeing her kneeling, Old Master Miller became serious: "If you have something to say, say it, what are you trying to do?"
"No, if Grandpa doesn't forgive me, I won't." Victoria lowered her head, blaming herself, but also feeling ashamed.
Only then did Old Master Miller sit on the sofa, and said solemnly: "Speak."
Victoria immediately sobbed: "Grandfather, I did the wrong thing, I ... Just a moment ago, I was delusional enough to think that I could break the engagement between him and Alvina. Grandfather, will you forgive me? I really know I was wrong."
Hearing that, Old Master Miller's face turned black, a teacup beside him directly smashed towards Victoria: "You bastard, what did you say?"
Victoria was so frightened that her whole body trembled, she directly went down on the ground and started crying: "Grandfather, I won't do that anymore, please forgive me, I will never have any presumptuous thoughts towards Joseph Grant ever again."
"You know that he's your brother-in-law, but you still have such shameless thoughts. You have completely shamed our Miller family." Old Master Miller was furious, he pointed at her and scolded. Victoria was so frightened that her entire body was trembling. Since she was young, she had never been reprimanded in such away.
