Chapter 1154
Holding a robot in his hand, Jonathan stomped out of the room. He then looked for Maya to arrange
another room for him.
Surprised, Maya stared at him. “Grandpa, why do you want another room?”
“I just can’t get along with your Grandma!” Jonathan said angrily.
Maya was tongue-tied.
That’s news to me. Though Grandpa and Grandma bicker with one another, and the Seet Residence
isn’t very peaceful at times, there has never been any conflict between them, as Grandpa has always
been patient and tolerant of Grandma. Why did he say that they can’t get along?
“Grandpa, did you fight with Grandma?” Maya asked in a low voice.
At the mention of his wife, Jonathan was fuming with rage.
“Why did we fight? Hmph! Your grandma is unreasonable! She has been mad at me for half a month. If it
weren’t for your gourmet conference, we wouldn’t have been at peace just now. To be honest, I even
fought with her before we came here. I’m the only one who can put up with a bad-tempered woman like
her!”
Maya was at a loss for words.
Judging from Grandpa’s words, his rtionship with Grandma isn’t as close as I thought. At her
grandfather’s insistence, Maya arranged another room for him. Later, she went to see Sophia.
Stepping through the door, she found Sophia having funining about Jonathan to a robot.
Listening casually to her grandmother, she realized that Sophia’s grumble was all about trivial family
affairs. Sometimes, my parents quarrel over small matters about our family as well, but Mommy will
usually win the arguments. Daddy always says that such bantering is an expression of love and will draw
them closer to one another, so I guess that’s a norm between couples. Without asking too much, she left
the room.
The moment she came out, she saw her parents walking out of another room.
“Daddy, Mommy,” she greeted them in a sweet voice.
“Maya.” Nicole gazed at her daughter with a grin,plimenting her on the delicious food and those
fascinating robots.
Evan expressed his satisfaction as well, saying that she would certainly have many customers, and the
business would grow tremendously.
Listening to her parents’pliments, Maya smiled ear to ear as joy overflowed in her heart.
“Daddy, Mommy, I’ll do my best to keep the business growing.”
“Maya, I think you should prioritize and focus on your study. I’m afraid that this business will cause you to
neglect your study.”

“Don’t worry, Mommy. I’ve found someone to take care of the business during the day. In case of
emergency, Aunt She and Uncle Davin will help me out. I’ve called Uncle Davin, and he promised that
he’ll help me once he returns from K Nation.”
“Maya, how about hiring a few people to manage this ce? Then you cane over when you’ve
spare time during weekends. Is this alright?”
“Yeah, Maya. Aunt She and Uncle Davin are going to get married soon. Once they tie the knot, they’ll
have their own things to do, so we shouldn’t trouble them always.”
Maya gave it some thought and felt that her mom was right. She nodded in agreement while saying,
“Okay, I’ll do as Daddy and Mommy said.”
Maya’s obedience put smiles on her parents’ faces. “Go ahead with your work. Mommy and I are going
home now.”
“Sure.”
Upon their return to the Imperial Garden, Nicole went to check on Nina right away. However, there was
no sign of the girl in her room. A sense of worry washed over Nicole in an instant.
Where did she go? She’s been feeling down recently.
Feeling anxious, the woman took her phone and called her daughter. Luckily, the call got through sooner
than she expected.
“Mommy…”
“Nina, where are you?”
“Mommy, I came out to buy some stuff. I’ll be back in a while.”
Nicole heaved a sigh of relief. “Okay. Come home soon.”
“Okay, Mommy.”
Hanging up the phone, Nina was overwhelmed by a mixture of emotions. In fact, she didn’te out to
buy things but for a leisure stroll, because she was feeling vexed.
