Chapter 981: This is the housewarming gift


    In the study.


    Angelo sat at his desk with a stern and deep expression. The look that fell sharply on his face was still


    like a sword.


    When they were at the table, Serena found herself a little surprised by his look. And then, since there


    were no other people around, the look seemed even sharper.


    -Maybe Cristian already told you what he told me at the table.


    Serena nodded, -Yes. Angelo.


    -He has a special consideration for you!


    Serena was silent.


    -He can''t even believe his grandfather, me, for fear that I will abuse you!


    -That''s not it, Angelo," Serena said softly, "it''s not that he doesn''t believe you. It''s not that he doesn''t


    believe you, but that he doesn''t trust me. He was probably worried that my personality might be so


    aggressive that it would offend her, that it would make the bad rtionship worse. You are his


    grandfather, the one who saved his life from the sea, both the rtive and the benefactor. Cristian and I


    respect her and it is impossible for us to think of her in any other way.


    These words went straight to the point. Angelo noticed that he meant what he said sincerely without


    malice. The anger that had just arisen died down a little at the end.


    -It is good for her to know.


    In fact, what she said not only made much of his anger disappear, but also greatly changed his

    impression of Serena. Manuel had praised her long before him. The old man felt that the girl had


    suffered a lot and had lived a difficult life. He could no longer be ashamed of her.


    However, they had turned out to be the words of a child after all. He believed them, but not all of them.


    He already knew what Serena had said with a very honest attitude, that she was indeed right in her


    thoughts.


    -Well, Angelo. On the house he wanted to go back to the country with Cristian....


    -You nned it, didn''t you? Why did youe to tell me? You''re going to abandon me anyway, the old


    man, to be alone abroad, aren''t you?


    Serena shook her head, "I don''t think so, Angelo. I was thinking that if you wanted to.


    -what?


    - Come back -with us together.


    -No way. Angelo quickly rejected her, then replied, -If I were toe back with you, who would take


    care of thepany''s business?


    Serena did not know what to say.


    She had not expected that there would be a day when she would suddenly feel that the big family and


    sessful business could be a burden.


    However, it turned out to be just her thinking. It would have been unrealistic for Angelo to think this way.


    -So...


    -Well,‖ Angelo nervously rubbed his hands, the action of which did not match his image. If I could allow


    Manuel to be with me?


    Serena was stunned for a while, not imagining that her thoughts were exactly the same as what


    Beatrice had said.


    She seemed to have no opinion about her return with Cristian. As long as Manuel stayed, Angelo did


    not care where she and Cristian would go.


    -Angelo, I would like to fulfill your wish ... but, as a mother, I cannot deprive a child of his freedom and


    ideas. I cannot do that.


    After listening to him, Angelo suddenly narrowed his eyes and looked at her a little unhappily.


    -But...


    When Angelo felt that he was about to change his tone, that there was room for business, he asked, -


    But what? Tell me quickly.


    If Manuel is willing to stay with his great-grandfather for a while, I won''t stop him.


    -All right, it''s a deal! -Angelo made the decision quickly, for fear of regretting it. Then he went to talk to


    Manuel. If he wants to stay, you won''t be able to say no!


    Seeing Angelo looking like a child afraid to have candy snatched out of his hand, Serena couldn''t help


    butugh.


    -What is there tough about? -Angelo blew his mustache angrily. Am I being ridiculous?


    Serena stoppedughing and said quietly, -Nothing, I really like you. I think Manuel will be willing to


    stay with you.


    -Let''s see," Angelo looked at her with dissatisfaction, but the displeasure in his eyes was no longer


    evident from the first time he saw her. It could be said that Serena had fully regarded him as a member


    of her younger generation.


    Suddenly he remembered something, opened the drawer and pulled out a beautiful box.


    -Come here.


    Serena was unclear about her motive, but she obediently approached the desk. Then she saw Angelo


    pushing the neatly made box.


    -What is this?


    Angelo did not look at it, but huffed softly, -A wee gift for you for cultivating Manuel so well.


    Wee gift?


    Serena blinked, remembering the scene of their first meeting. She couldn''t help but joke: -Angelo, if I


    ept this, will you order me to separate from Cristian?


    Angelo was speechless.


    He squeezed his eyes shut, stunned. Then he raised his head. He met Serena''s slightly sly smile.


    That was how Angelo would remember that day.


    At that moment, she let him take out the money for Serena to leave.


    Unexpectedly.


    "Did he dare even to tease his grandfather?" she thought.


    At that thought, Angelo became so angry in an instant that his mustache became bristly. He held out


    his hand and said, "Then give it back!


    -No!" Serena quickly grabbed the box before he took it back. She held it in her arms like a treasure: "It


    is the first housewarming gift you gave me. I still ept it as a great-grandchild, thank you Grandpa!


    Looking at the sudden change, Angelo immediately felt that the girl was truly idiosyncratic, but there


    was nothing he could do with her.


    -Angelo. Thank you. I''m going outside.


    -Go! -Angelo said impatiently.


    Serena left with the box. Then Angelo''s expression changed and he sighed.


    Actually, he would have liked Cristian to be with the daughter of the Landi family, which would further


    his career in the future when Cristian took over the Calligaris Group.


    However, he understood that there were things that could not be forced.


    The girl was perfect, but after all, she had been unlucky with her grandson. As cruel as she was, she


    did not want to break up the big family again.


    Fortunately, there was a great-grandson tofort him.


    At that thought, Angelo remembered the conversation that had taken ce a moment earlier, so he too


    got up and went out. He had to take advantage of thest few days when they would not be back to


    convince Manuel to stay and apany him.


    As long as the little boy would be willing, they could go wherever the others wanted!


    When Serena came out, she saw Cristian looking at the door. She teased him, "I let you stand guard,


    and you did.


    Seeing her leave, Cristian rushed to her and grabbed her arm: -How are you doing? Did Grandpa


    embarrass you?


    -What do you take me for?
