Chapter 1318


    Only then did Alvina Miller remember that she and Joseph Grant could not meet in the Executive


    Office in private, if other people saw them, the consequences would be unpredictable. Thus, she


    immediately became spirited, and quickly tiptoed and kissed Joseph Grant on his handsome face,


    then retreated step by step: "Then I will go back first!"


    Joseph Grant was stunned as he saw the girl disappear into the distance.


    If it weren''t for the bitter coffee in his hand, he wondered if he''d been dreaming when he saw her.


    The man''s thin lips couldn''t help but twitch. The bitter coffee that he had just tasted had


    unknowingly tasted better.


    Joseph Grant stayed in the library until half past two when he left. When the two aides saw the


    empty cup of coffee in his hands, their expressions were filled with horror, thinking about how they


    had worked so hard and had only drank half of the cup, yet sir, who was so picky about coffee, had


    finished it without adding sugar or milk.


    "Why?" Seeing their strange expressions, Joseph Grant asked with a low voice.


    "No …. Nothing! Miss Miller is really warmhearted, even sending us coffee! " Lieutenant Hilton


    immediately revealed his eight teeth and smiled gratefully.


    Joseph Grant could not help butugh out loud. The little woman had already tortured him enough,


    and had also tortured his two aides to a miserable state.


    But wasn''t that where her loveliness was interesting?


    When Alvina Miller returned to the office, seeing that everyone was still taking their afternoon nap,


    she decided to rest for a while.


    In the afternoon, when she went to the tea room to make tea, she caught a whiff of strong coffee


    and immediately held her head up to look at the coffee her colleague had made. There was even a


    fineyer of white foam on it.


    "Wow, it smells so good!" Alvina Miller, a person who didn''t like drinking coffee, found the taste good


    as well.


    "Would you like one too?" her colleague asked her kindly.


    "Sure!" Alvina Miller also wanted to repay the aroma of the coffee.


    When her colleague showed her the process of the coffee, Alvina Miller revealed a surprised


    expression. "Didn''t you add a spoonful of coffee beans to the coffee?"


    "There''s no need for so much. Half a spoonful is enough. It''s too strong and the bitter taste is


    heavy!" Her colleague answered with a smile.


    Alvina Miller''s beautiful eyes widened in shock. It''s over, she made three cups of coffee today, and


    added three spoonfuls to it, wouldn''t that be too bitter to death?


    After the coffee was brewed, the colleague had a small spoon filled with sugar and cream.


    She immediately smacked her forehead with her hand. She was so anxious to make coffee at noon


    that she forgot to add sugar and cream. Wouldn''t that make things more difficult?


    "Alvina, what''s wrong? Try it!" Seeing her surprised expression, her colleague immediatelyughed.


    "Thank you!" Alvina Miller received the coffee with both hands, lowered her head and took a sip,


    "The taste is not bad!"


    Her colleague nodded and said somewhat proudly, "I often drink coffee and have learnt all sorts of


    cooking methods!"


    Hearing that, Alvina Miller hurriedly asked humbly: "Big sister, can you teach? I like to drink coffee


    too! "


    "It can''t be that you like to drink it, right? From what I see, you haven''t drunk it before. Do you want


    to make it for that person of yours?" The warm—hearted elder sister was able to see through her


    thoughts.


    Alvina Miller chuckled: "Big Sis''s eyes are truly sharp, I can''t even hide this little trick of mine!"


    "Alvina, you''re so cute, whoever marries you, their life will be very interesting. Alright, since you help


    me at work every day, I''ll teach you for free." Thedy nodded earnestly and agreed.


    Alvina Miller was quite popr in the archive room, because she was very diligent. Furthermore,


    she was very good at helping others, which made people''s have good impression on her.


    Alvina Miller grinned. Next time, she must make Joseph Grant a cup of delicious coffee to repay


    him.


    In the vi of Wayne Family, the lights were all slightly pale. The olddy was sitting alone in the old


    man''s room, arranging the inheritance for him. The old man''s will was also made public by his


    lawyer, 30% of the ownership was given to his three grandsons. He did not have any favoritism,


    everyone had 10% of the share.


    Edwards Wayne pushed the door and entered. Seeing his grandmother sitting alone by the window


    and looking out at the pitch—ck night, he felt his heart was in a mess. He immediately walked


    over tofort her.


    "Grandmother, the funeral will be tomorrow. Don''t be too sad!" Edwards Wayne reached out and


    gently hugged his granny.


    "I won''t be sad anymore. Your grandfather said before that he won''t go too far because he''s still


    waiting for me!" The olddy said with a smile.


    Edwards Wayne''s eyes reddened, and he felt like crying.


    “Alright, during this period of time, the atmosphere in our family is too sad. The two little fellows


    clearly haven''t experienced this kind of thing, so don''t scare them. Tomorrow, after the funeral of


    your grandfather. We should move on.” It was as if the olddy had decided to turn over the page,


    because no matter who she wanted to hate, she couldn''t. The person who had done this to her was


    her own son, and he was also bearing the burden of his crimes.


    "Alright, as long as Grandmother doesn''t mention it, we won''t mention it again!" Edwards Wayne


    nodded.


    The two little fellows had indeed been a little scared during the past two days. Perhaps it was


    because they were too young, but they were always filled with fear towards unknown things.


    Lily''s heart was also heavy. Even though she didn''t interact much with the old man, she knew that


    he was an elder worthy of respect. She also knew even more how much of an impact he had had


    on Edwards Wayne.


    "Is Grandma still sad?" Lily asked Edwards Wayne in a soft voice as she watched Edwards Wayne


    walk in.


    "Yes, even though grandmother said that she won''t be sad, she will definitely feel sad in her heart!"


    As Edwards Wayne said that, he took off his jacket, which Lily took and hung on a hanger at the


    side.


    "Your grandfather died too suddenly. No one was prepared." Lily sighed.


    Edwards Wayne''s handsome face was filled with sorrow, he suddenly reached out and hugged Lily,


    and leaned his head on her hair: "Lily, I feel very guilty, Grandfather only died because of me!"


    Lily knew that Edwards Wayne was suppressing this matter in his heart. Although he did not


    mention it to anyone, this invisible pressure still made him sad every day.


    Lily didn''t know how tofort him. She had said too manyforting words, but at this moment,


    she didn''t know what else to say. She could only extend her hand and gently stroke the man''s hair,


    allowing him to lean on.


    In the dark of the night, on the big bed, Lily discovered that Edwards Wayne liked to sleep in her


    embrace these two nights. He was like an injured child and needed someone tofort him.

    Lily also felt a lot of heartache for him, and she didn''t know when he would be able to walk out of


    this shadow.


    Jack Wayne sat alone in the dark room. This room was where his father, John Wayne, once lived.


    Suddenly, his hand was ced on a small counter beside him. He had been looking for cigarettes


    and a lighter, but he seemed to have overturned a wooden box on the counter. Something had been


    dumped on the floor.


    Jack Wayne frowned, he extended his hand and turned on the light, and saw that there were a few


    photos and a small book scattered on the floor.


    He froze for a moment before squatting down and picking up the photos one by one. They were


    actually all of her sister Jane Wayne, a total of five of them, with two of them having turned


    completely yellow. It could be seen that they were taken when Jane Wayne was first brought home.


    Thest one was a photo of herself taking a photo of her not long before she passed away. There


    was even John Wayne in the picture.


    In such a sorrowful moment, looking at the photo of his loved ones, Jack Wayne''s feelings became


    even moreplicated and extremely sad.


    It must be because Dad missed his little sister so much that he collected her pictures in this box so


    they could be viewed at any time.


    Jack Wayne thought like this as he reached out to pick up the notebook. It was small and square,


    and he thought that it was his father''s diary, which probably contained his feelings for his sister.


    However, when he flipped to the next page, his entire body felt as if it had fallen into an icehouse. It


    was so cold that all the blood in his body froze.


    This was John Wayne''s diary. He recorded all of his thoughts after Jane Wayne betrayed him, and


    also recorded how he disguised Jane Wayne''s death to look like an ident. He didn''t even let the


    police investigate this matter, so he treated everything as an ident.


    Jack Wayne''s entire body was trembling, he never thought that his father would be the one to kill his


    sister, which was like a thunderbolt out of the sky.
