Chapter 1017


    When Alexander received the call from Margaret, he was in a meeting at thepany.He needed to


    report on establishing new projects and expansion ideas overseas.


    Initially, he did not want to answer the call, but as he used his phone to read the data analysis, he had


    no choice.


    After declining the call, he quickly summed up his meeting and returned to the office to call her back.


    On the phone, the olddy sounded aggressive.


    "Where are you now?"


    "I''m in thepany."


    It seemed like Margaret was in a bad mood.


    "Come back right away! "You mean, now?"


    "Yes, now!"


    After a pause, she said again, "Bring your wife with you!"


    Before Alexander could refuse, Margaret immediately said, "If you don''t bring her, I''ll send someone to


    pick her up myself! Is she unable to leave the house now that she''s pregnant? As your grandmother, I


    don''t even get to meet her at least once?"


    Alexander kept quiet for a moment and pursed his lips.He did not want to argue with her on the phone.


    "Got it."


    He guessed this sudden invitation was probably rted to Heather.


    Alexander did not know how Heather told Ralph and Margaret about the incident, but he could not be


    bothered.


    An hourter, Alexander''s car slowly drove into the Russell Estate.


    Margaret was already sitting in the living room with her walking stick firmly in her hand.She seemed like


    she was ready for battle.


    Ralph was by her side, whispering something that made her face turn even darker.


    Meanwhile, Celine stood on the sidelines, smiling as if she were a bystander.


    "Grandma," Alexander called out when he walked in.


    After looking around, he asked, "What time is it now? Why aren''t you taking a nap?"


    "A nap?!"


    Margaret raised an eyebrow.

    "Are you hoping I will sleep forever and never wake up?!"


    "You''re being dramatic, Grandma."


    "Dramatic? I won''t dare to.Who would dare to act dramatically in front of the president of La Beauté


    Group? I''ve only said a few words, and you already think I’m being dramatic.Then, why didn''t you think


    you''ve gone too far when you go around fighting another woman?"


    ‘Sure enough, that is the case!'' Alexander raised his eyebrows.


    "So, that''s why I''m here."


    "So, you admit it, then? You fought a woman!"


    Ralph pounced at the chance.


    Initially, he was still a little dubious when Heather told him about it.


    After all, how could Alexander hurt her with her skills and ability? However, listening to what Alexander


    said, it seemed like he was admitting to his crimes.


    Regardless of how he did it, Heather was still Ralph''s fiancee, and his nephew injured her before they


    married.


    If Ralph could not even protect his woman, where could he run to hide his face in shame?


    "We just had a light sparring session.Grandma, if you think I''ve fought her, so be it,"


    After a pause, Alexander added, "However, Ms.Riggs fought back as well."


    Hearing this, Margaret almost choked on her breath.


    "How dare you speak like that?! She''s a girl! How can she fight you? She''s still your aunt at the end of


    the day.Do you think it''s reasonable for a nephew to fight his aunt? Go with your uncle right now, and


    apologize to your aunt!"
