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 iparably


    satisfied and happy.


    Edwards Wayne''s and Leo William''s emotions werepletely 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 rtives. 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 rxed 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 andughed, 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 rtives. 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 rtives. All of them wearing tinted sses 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 ce 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''te today, it was grandfather who prohibited her froming. He also said that as


    long as Alvina and Joseph Grant were present in any asion 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 ce 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 rtionship 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 red 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 rtives 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 asion,


    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 foring." 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,e to my house. I''ll


    introduce my wife to you." Edwards Wayne immediatelyughed and said.


    "I''ve met your wife, and I begged her to help mest time. I''ll definitely find 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 ck sedans drove away, attracting many people''s


    gazes. "Alvina, congrattions. I camete. 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 n 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 find


    someone to send you off."


    Penelope stood in ce and waited. Seeing Alvina walk towards a ce 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 longter, 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 exined 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 immediatelyughed politely: "Mr.


    Fortune told me that red is good for me."


    "Oh!" This was the funniest exnation 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.
