Chapter 1531
Vanessa did not want Julien to have any misunderstanding towards his family because of her, so
she had to exin the entire situation to him.
She wasn''t trying to speak fondly of the Kyle family in front of Julien. Rather, when Vanessa thought
about it, she really felt like they had treated her as one of their own. They had never seen her as an
outsider.
"I''m d that you feel at home here." Julien took Vanessa''s hand and said, "Let''s go. I want you to
meet someone."
"Are you taking me to see your Grandpa?" Vanessa asked.
"What a clever girl you are. Yes, Grandpa wants to meet you."
Vanessa wanted to shake off Julien''s hand. "Julien, let me go grab the gift I prepared for him first. I
don''t feel nice meeting him empty handed."
"My grandpa has seen all sorts of things throughout his life. You really don''t have to worry about
that." Julien dragged Vanessa along with him. "I''ve asked someone to bring Lawrie over. The three
of us will greet my grandpa together. The best gift to him is you, his granddaughter- in-w and
Lawrie, his great grandson."
"Don''t talk nonsense. I haven''t even promised to marry you yet, so since when did I be his
granddaughter-inw already?" Vanessa wanted to withdraw her hand, but Julien was holding onto
it tightly. Hence, she had no choice but to let Julien bring her to the backyard.
Julien raised an eyebrow. "Are you telling me that you have other choices than marrying me?"
Vanessa pouted her lips. "No, but that doesn''t mean there won''t be any in the future."N?velDrama.Org (C) content.
With a somber face, Julien said in a deep voice, "I''m telling you, Vanessa. Your only choice is to
stay with me for the rest of your life. You are not allowed to go anywhere else."
Vanessa murmured to herself, "What an overbearing guy."
However, she liked how bossy he was and how he would get jealous because of her.
Julien was usually a low-profile person, but in front of Vanessa, he waspletely different. He was
adorably arrogant, to the point where he was even a little funny. To put it bluntly, he was a little silly
when it came to rtionships, "That''s right, that''s how I am. What are you going to do about it?"
"You''re the mighty president of Rovio while I''m just one of your thousands of employees. What do
you think I can do to you?" Vanessa answered.
Now that Vanessa had mentioned it, Julien immediately recalled the days when Vanessa was not at
thepany because of Lawrie hospitalisation. He felt that time had passed much slower at work.
He then said, "Vanessa, when Lawrie is fully recovered, you should go back to work. Your position
will be the same, and you can decide on your own sry."
Vanessa was surprised and asked, "Me, going back to Rovio? Do you think that I can still do that?"
Looking at the surprised look on Vanessa''s face, Julien couldn''t help but pinch her cheek. "You silly
girl, are you doubting my power as the president of thepany? Do you think that I don''t even
have the power to hire a secretary like you? Or are you doubting your own capabilities?"
"It''s not that I don''t trust in you or myself, but... but..." Vanessa paused for a while. Initially, Vanessa
left Rovio because of her past, but now that she no longer had such concerns, what else did she
have to worry about?
Was she worried that people at work would gossip about her?
If they wanted to gossip, she could just let them be. After all, it was true that there was something
going on between her and Julien. Moreover, now that her son was Julien''s son, she would never be
able to cut ties with even if she wanted to. Hence, she could only ept how things had turned out.
As for her work performance, Vanessa had performed extraordinarily well in the past year. It was
especially so when she worked alongside Julien. Their good rapport had always doubled their
productivity.
Julien decided on Vanessa''s behalf. "It''s settled then. Once Lawriepletely recovers, we''ll bring
him home and my family will take care of him. Then, you cane back to thepany to help
me."
He said he wanted her to help him.
His words made Vanessa feel like she was needed. At that instant, Vanessa felt that her heart had
fallen into a jar of honey. It was so sweet that the corners of her mouth could not help but curve
upwards.
Being doted on and needed by a man like him... That feeling was just too good to be true.
While they were chatting merrily, Lawrie was brought over. The moment Lawrie saw Vanessa, he
threw himself into Vanessa''s arms and said, "Where have you been, Mommy? Don''t leave me all by
myself, okay?"
When Lawrie was ying with Larry and Silvia, he noticed that Vanessa was no longer at the living
room and immediately got flustered. Just as he was looking for Vanessa, someone came over and
brought him over to the backyard.
"Lawrie, didn''t I tell you not to keep thinking that I''ll leave you? That will never happen." Vanessa
hugged Lawrie and stroked his forehead gently. "I told you before that I would never abandon you.
Why are you still so afraid?"
"Because I get scared when I don''t see you," Lawrie expressed his grievances. This was his first
time at this strange ce, and he had lost sight of Vanessa and Julien, this big bad guy. He thought
that Julien had yed some tricks and took Vanessa away, so he was so scared that he almost
cried.
"Lawrie, don''t be afraid. Daddy brought Mommy out to y." Julien held Lawrie in his arms and
said, "I was worried that you would be looking for Mommy, so I sent someone to bring you here. We
are going to see your greatgrandfather now. Promise me that you''ll be a
good boy, okay?"
"Okay, I will be a good boy." As long as Vanessa and Julien did not leave him behind, everything
would not matter to him.
In order to see his granddaughter- in-w, Grandpa Kyle had asked Jayden to leave him alone in
the backyard. He walked around in the yard alone and it was quite obvious that he had been waiting
for quite a long time. When he finally saw Juliening over with Vanessa and Lawrie, Grandpa
Kyle instantly burst intoughter and said, "You guys are here..."
Julien whispered into Lawrie''s ear and Lawrie immediately greeted in a sweet voice, "Great-
grandpa..."
"What a good boy you are!" Seeing such an adorable little boy calling him greatgrandfather,
Grandpa Kyle was over the moon, and couldn''t stop smiling. He was so emotional that all he could
manage to say was, "Yes, yes, what a good boy..."
As Grandpa Kyle got older, he was especially happy whenever there were new members joining the
family. When he was around the younger generation, he would feel that he had gotten much
younger himself too.
Seeing how emotional Grandpa Kyle was, Julien said, "Grandpa Kyle, I have yet to formally
introduce Vanessa and Lawrie to you, and yet you''re so happy with them already. I guess I don''t
need to introduce them to you then."
"Do you think I still need you to introduce them to me? I am old, but I am not confused, and I can
still see things very clearly. You have been holding thisdy''s hand so tightly, and you didn''t even
want to let go of her for even a second. If she wasn''t your girlfriend, who else would she be then?
Moreover, that little boy that you''re carrying there resembles you so much, if he''s not your son, are
you going to tell me that he''s someone else''s son?"
"You really have a good eye, Grandpa." Julien proceeded to formally introduce them. "Well, let me
officially introduce them to you now. This is my fiancee, Vanessa Love, and this is my son, Lawrie."
