Super Sweetheart of the CEO Daddy -
Chapter 1540
Even if his sister hadn't cried out for him, looking at that beautiful and charming face in front of him, Joseph Grant couldn't help but give her a light kiss on the forehead. In fact, he still wanted to give her an even more passionate kiss. However, in front of so many people, the reserved Joseph Grant would definitely not be able to do that. Alvina lightly closed her eyes. Even if it was only a dragonfly kiss, she was still incomparably satisfied and happy.
Edwards Wayne's and Leo William's emotions were completely different. Edwards Wayne had already experienced the warmth and romance when he was married, and was finally able to obtain the happiness and satisfaction of being seen by his close friends and relatives. Leo William had yet to experience all of this. Looking at the scene of Joseph Grant and his wife-to-be hugging together, he couldn't help but think of her. He wanted to marry her and let everyone know that.
Joseph Grant and Alvina sat at the main seat, and the banquet officially began. There were delicious dishes and wine. Everyone ate and drank, and the atmosphere was relaxed and happy.
As juniors, Alvina and Joseph Grant were busy toasting to the elders. As Joseph Grant was in a high position, there were many people who came to toasts to him. In an instant, they switched toasts and laughed, making the ancient hall extremely lively.
However, there were a few people who didn't fit in with the liveliness.
Sister May forced out a smile and chatted with some of her relatives. Very quickly, some of the less sensible people would try to improve the pain of Sister May. If it was an outsider, that would be fine, but they were all her relatives. All of them wearing tinted glasses as they looked at her, sincerely urging her to get married and have a child.
Sister May was extremely annoyed, and she truly felt that she came to the wrong place and looked for trouble.
In truth, Joseph Grant did not invite her. It was the Mrs. Grant who called her. Sister May came over happily, wanting to create a good show for everyone to see. At that moment, she really wanted to break the recording pen and stuff it into Victoria's mouth for her to swallow.
Fortunately, she was smart enough to judge Joseph Grant's true intentions towards Alvina, if not, she would be the one to make a fool of herself.
Sister May felt as if she was sitting on pins and needles, wishing that she could leave immediately. Miller family's two uncles also felt uneasy, hoping that the banquet would quickly end.
Amy Miller, on the other hand, ate the dish leisurely while drinking the good wine. Seeing that there was a man who was puffing out smoke at the side, she wished that she could light a cigarette for herself. Victoria didn't come today, it was grandfather who prohibited her from coming. He also said that as long as Alvina and Joseph Grant were present in any occasion in the future, she wouldn't be allowed to appear.
Amy Miller had endured for so many years, and the moment of glory had finally arrived. Of course, she wanted to drink an extra cup of wine to celebrate.
Alvina's alcohol tolerance was not good, in the end she could only use tea in place of wine. Facing the warm guests, she had already drunk her fill. Joseph Grant who was standing beside her, did not have this treatment anymore. He was drinking all wine. Even if his alcohol tolerance was not bad, his face turned red already. He looked at her with passion.
He had the urge to drag her into the empty room next door...
However, his rationality suppressed this urge. He could not do this, and he would not do this.
Today was his big day and he was happy. Even he was drunk, he still was happy.
Penelope was also sitting at the table, seeing the intimate interaction between Alvina and Joseph. She suddenly thought of her previous marriage. She seemed to have skipped the engagement phase and directly stepped into the wedding. Initially, the two of them were still passionate. After three months, the man's nature was exposed, and the relationship between them went worse. They were busy with their work, so it was difficult for them to see each other. In the end, her husband betrayed her and found a sexier young woman. That woman came to fight with her and she was pregnant. Penelope wanted to beat her, but she controlled herself. In the end, she divorced with her husband.
Her train of thought drifted far away from the bustling scene. Only when Penelope came back to her senses did she realize that two streams of tears had actually slipped down her face. She immediately lowered her head in shame and reached out to wipe them away.
However, when she thought that everyone's eyes were on the two main characters today, she raised her head. She saw the injured man sitting at the next table. He was looking at her in surprise. Their four eyes met. Penelope had been fought in the political circles for many years, but she still blushed when she saw her gaze.
She glared at Rain somewhat angrily. Why is this man staring at her all the time? Did she have a flower growing on her face?
In truth, Penelope had misunderstood Rain. Rain had only raised his head and saw that she seemed to be wiping tears. He was shocked too.
Maybe the women's thoughts were really strange, so Penelope felt that the Rain was doing this on purpose.
Being stared at by Penelope, the upright Rain hurriedly lowered his head in fear. He didn't dare take another look.
Penelope scoffed in her heart, at least he knew what's good for him.
When the feast finally reached its end, Sister May could no longer sit still. She forced a smile to say goodbye to her relatives and walked out the door, her face immediately turning dark.
Seeing that someone had started to disperse, Miller family's two uncles also went over to greet the old man and the Grant family elders. Then, they quickly left.
Edwards Wayne and Leo William came together. Since today was Joseph Grant's special occasion, they would naturally not steal his limelight. They greeted the drunk and blurry Joseph Grant. As Joseph Grant wanted to say something to them, his well-built body became unstable, and he directly hugged Alvina, who was at his side.
"He's drunk. You guys go back first. Thank you for coming." Alvina immediately smiled and said to the two of them.
"He's really drunk. Take good care of him. When you have time in the future, come to my house. I'll introduce my wife to you." Edwards Wayne immediately laughed and said.
"I've met your wife, and I begged her to help me last time. I'll definitely replace time to go to your house and thank her personally." Alvina smiled and nodded. She had a very good impression of Lily. "Oh, right. I almost forgot. You've met." Edwards Wayne suddenly thought of something.
Saying their goodbyes, Leo William and Edwards Wayne left the house at the same time. Their convoy stopped at both sides, and several black sedans drove away, attracting many people's gazes. "Alvina, congratulations. I came late. I've already given myself a punishment." Seeing that there were fewer guests, Penelope walked in front of Alvina and gave her best wishes with a smile.
Alvina was emotionally moved as she hugged her, "Sister Penelope, I'm already very happy that you're here. Really."
"I drank some wine, so I can't drive anymore. Maybe I'll need you to get me a driver." Originally, Penelope did not plan to drink. However, she was inexplicably exhausted, so she decided to drink a few cups. Seeing that it was already time for work, Penelope could only seek help from Alvina.
Of course, Alvina was willing to help, she chuckled: "Sister Penelope, wait a moment, I'll replace someone to send you off."
Penelope stood in place and waited. Seeing Alvina walk towards a place not far away with quick steps, the person she was talking to was actually the middle-aged man that she bumped into today. She felt guilty.
Not long later, Alvina walked over with a smile: "Sister Penelope, Rain is someone I trust a lot. His driving skills are also good, I'll have him send you to work."
"Him?" Penelope frowned: "Can you change people?"
"Sister Penelope, Rain is very good. I assure you, moreover, he is very responsible. He will definitely ensure your safety. I can't trust others. " Alvina basically did not understand Penelope's thoughts, as she explained with a serious expression.
Penelope's face was a little awkward, and she could only remain silent. She was afraid that Alvina would see through her guilt.
"Madam, please follow me." Rain had a look of responsibility.
"Madam?" It seemed that Penelope had not heard someone call her this in a long time, her mind immediately exploded. Alvina's face froze for a second, then she quickly smiled and corrected him: "Rain, Sister Penelope is currently single. How about you call her Miss instead of Madam?"
Rain was startled and nodded.
However, Penelope held back her anger and said to Alvina: "Alvina, then I'll be leaving first. I wish you a happy wedding. See you at the office."
"Sister Penelope, take care." Alvina waved his hands at her.
Rain and Penelope walked out of the courtyard one after the other. Under the sunlight, the ground was scorching hot and it made people feel hot and stuffy. Without saying a word, Penelope walked over to his own car and took out a handful of car key from her bag and gave it to him.
Rain took it. He opened the car door and started the car.
Penelope's expression stiffened, in the end, she still opened the door to the front passenger seat and sat down.
This was her car, so of course she had to sit in the front seat to be at ease.
When Rain sat in the carriage, he realized that the interior of the carriage was decorated somewhat... Strange.
They were all red, including the seat, steering wheel, and leather jacket. As a man, he looked a bit embarrassed, not knowing where to put his hands.
Penelope could probably guess how depressed he was. She immediately laughed politely: "Mr. Fortune told me that red is good for me."
"Oh!" This was the funniest explanation the Rain had ever heard. Was there really someone who regarded the words of fortune-teller as the truth? "By the way, are your legs okay? Will it affect your driving?" Penelope could not help but ask.
Rain shook his head. "No, my leg is fine."
Maybe she drank a little, or maybe she had been lonely all these years, she turned her head and started to size up Rain boldly.
