Without any warning, a torrential rain started to fall. The rain was beating the windows and it made a loud noise. The situation of the cars on the road became even more chaotic, causing one's heart to tighten. Fortunately, Joseph Grant's convoy had turned onto a road with fewer people, which was directly used for driving to the Vice-President's Palace. No matter how heavy the rain, it would not be affected.

After passing through countless sentry booths, the car stopped in front of the living room's entrance. Warren Hilton quickly went down and opened the door for Joseph.

Joseph Grant held onto a document in his hand, and got out of the carriage. He said to Warren Hilton: "The rain is so heavy, why don't you let them all come in for a cup of tea, there's no need to rush back." "Alright, mister, I will bring them to the side hall to sit. Quickly go and take a look at Miss Miller." Warren Hilton was very grateful for Joseph Grant's kindness and immediately nodded. Joseph Grant made a sound of acknowledgement, and quickly walked into the living room. As he looked around, he did not see the familiar figure. Then he quickly walked towards the stairs. Up the stairs, Joseph Grant instinctively walked towards his bedroom, because recently, this woman seemed to enjoy staying in his room and had left the room that belonged to her.

The moment he stepped into the room, Joseph Grant immediately saw the bundle that was propped up under the blanket. A ray of bright light could still be seen coming from within. The handsome man frowned. What was this woman doing hiding under the blanket?

As Alvina Miller had been in an extremely sealed space with paper towels stuffed in her ears, she did not know that Joseph Grant had entered. She looked at the photos she had taken, and she was so happy that she looked like an idiot, becoming more and more excited.

Just when Alvina Miller finished flipping through an album and decided to read it again, the blanket above her head was lifted by a big palm.

She raised her panic-stricken eyes to meet with the man's deep eyes. The way Alvina Miller was lying on the ground was extremely seductive, and the man was looking at her.

"What are you looking at? You are so happy?" When the man saw her lying on her stomach with a small flashlight in her mouth, he couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth and bend down to look with her.

"Your album." Alvina Miller quickly spat out the small flashlight and laughed dryly.

Joseph Grant's handsome face froze, he immediately extended his palm and snatched the album away: "Don't look it, there is nothing."

"It's really great. You were so cute when you were a kid. " Seeing that the man was embarrassed, Alvina Miller wanted to snatch the album away, but she immediately reached out and snatched it back: "Why not let me see it? Is there some secret behind it?"

"No secrets." Joseph Grant immediately replied.

"Is that so?" Alvina Miller's finger quickly went to the back of the album and flipped through it to replace a picture of Joseph Grant and a girl around the same age sitting on a seaside swing. Alvina Miller immediately pointed with her little hand: "Who is she? You never mentioned her to me. You took three pictures, and one of it that you were holding hands. "

Joseph Grant's handsome face flushed red. He quickly sat to the side and explained in a low voice: "She's the daughter of my father's friend. We met each other when we worked together back then." "OK..." Alvina Miller glanced at him meaningfully: "Just a friend? A friend that you could hold hands with...I understand."

"Alvina, what are you trying to say?" Joseph Grant laughed helplessly, and reached out to pinch her pouting cheeks: "At that time, we were only thirteen years old, and didn't understand any kind of relationship between a man and a woman. Moreover, I had always treated her as my younger sister, and after she settled down with her parents outside of the country, we basically hadn't met each other much."

"I envy her." Alvina Miller lowered her head and bluntly said.

"Why?" Joseph Grant's handsome face was filled with surprise.

"No reason, I'm just envious of her. I'm jealous that she got to know you so early and even went through such a beautiful period of youth with you." Alvina Miller sighed softly, a look of loss on her face. Joseph Grant didn't know whether to laugh or cry and hugged her in his embrace. He kissed her forehead with his thin lips: "When you were young, you definitely had some good boys with you, right? "I don't have any. At that time, I was a loner and didn't have any friends." Alvina Miller retorted in a low voice.

Joseph Grant believed her words because she had lost her father at that time.

"The past is the past, now is the most important moment. Alvina, in the future, we will be together, you will no longer be alone, and I will no longer be friends with other women, okay?" Joseph Grant could only console her.

Alvina Miller buried her face deep in his chest, and like a kid who had been coaxed, she nodded.

At this moment, the rain was patting on the window outside, Joseph Grant placed the document case to the side and released his arms to hold her tighter.

"Did you see today's news?" Joseph Grant asked her in a low voice.

Alvina Miller was stunned for a moment, then shook her head: "No, I was looking at a book on your bookshelf today. I'm addicted to it and didn't pay much attention to the news. What's wrong, did something big happen?"

"I told you before that Old President had a capable confidant by his side. It was a cousin of mine from far away. She died today." Joseph Grant's eyes were tightly shut, and it was hard to tell if he was feeling pained or sad from between his brows. After all, to him, the Sister May could be considered as a mentor in his entire life, but he never expected that she would end up like this.

"How did she die?" As expected, Alvina Miller jumped in shock and quickly struggled out of his embrace as she asked with astonishment.

"Maybe she felt that she had been abandoned by Old President, she was not willing, and wanted to make her last stand. She kidnapped one of piano teacher's son, and she was killed by the people that Old President sent. Do you know who hired the piano teacher?" Seeing her looking at him with her clear eyes, Joseph Grant couldn't help but want to tease her again. He liked to be watched by her so seriously. "Who is it?" Alvina Miller didn't know that this man would actually tease her at this time. Her beautiful eyes widened a little as her gaze became more serious, like a kitten waiting to be spoiled by its master. Joseph Grant pursed his lips, he really wanted to kiss her beautiful eyes.

"It was my good friend, Edwards Wayne. He invited the piano teacher for his daughter. Sister May threatened to kill Edwards' s daughter, if not, she would kill her son. That teacher had a conscience, and told Edwards about this matter, causing Sister May to become angry and tie her son up as a hostage. On one hand, she knew that she had no other choice, and on the other hand, she wanted to put Old President to death before she died, which was the news that shocked the entire country today. Joseph Grant endured the thirst in his heart and helped her resolve her doubts in the end.

Alvina Miller became anxious and asked anxiously: "Is that child alright?"

"It's fine, it's saved." The man gently caressed her hair. "It's a good thing that the child is fine. Otherwise, this incident would have been terrible."

Alvina Miller couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief, and leaned back against his chest, closed his eyes and said: "These people are too crazy, then will the Old President be affected because of this?"

"Of course. He's already worried." Joseph Grant answered her in a low voice, but he hid some things, such as the condition that Old President wanted to discuss with him.

"If the Old President was not selected, he would definitely be angered to death." Alvina Miller could not help but mock him.

However, Joseph Grant gave a cold laugh: "His outcome is already decided. This is his own choice, and he can't blame anyone else."

Alvina Miller nodded his head: "Yes, the thing one does will be looked by the god. Just now, those who have done something shameful, should be afraid of thunder and lightning." Joseph Grant chuckled. "Yes, of course they will be afraid."

Alvina Miller suddenly thought back to what she said in her mind. She could not help but laugh and ask Joseph Grant: "Are you afraid?"

Joseph Grant was startled. "Why should I be afraid?"

"Because you promised me so many things." Alvina Miller's smile deepened.

Joseph Grant could not help but laugh out loud: "You're afraid that I would not be able to fulfill my promise, aren't you?"

"I don't think so." Alvina Miller quickly curled her lips.

Joseph Grant suddenly pushed her down onto the bed, pressing her body down, and said: "That's what you think."

Alvina Miller did not expect him to suddenly do this to his, scaring her to the point that his body trembled. He laughed continuously: "Alright, I've thought of it this before, can you get up first? It isn't comfortable like this." Joseph Grant's serene eyes instantly darkened and his voice also became a bit softer: "You're so soft that I don't even want to get up."

"You..." Alvina Miller blushed.
