Chapter 741 Long-cherished Wish
The corners of Leo''s mouth twitched violently. He looked at his grandfather nkly and blinked his
eyes, somewhat baffled. How could he say something like that all of a sudden?
"Grandpa, what are you talking about? Are you tired or confused? Have you misheard?"
"p!" Another sound of stick fell on Leo, and Edmund red at him. Why did he have such an unfilial
grandson who just wanted to piss him off?
"Don''t you know whether I am stupid or you are stupid?"
Leo bore the stick silently. At the same time, he was confused who was spreading the rumor, and most
importantly, he had a big grudge against the gossip object.
"Unfilial!" Edmund''s temples throbbed, but it was not appropriate to discipline his own child in the
current situation, so he could only endure it and roared in a low voice.
Hester, who was dancing with the initiator, saw this scene with a slight nce. She raised her
eyebrows, nced at Derek and rolled her eyes in her heart.
"You can easily start a war. You can also be considered a talent!"
"I''m ttered." A smile shed across his elegant face. Derek didn''t feel ashamed at all when he heard
this.
Following Hester''s gaze, he saw the quarreling master and grandson in the corner.
"Basically, Leo always loses at this time,"
Derek said these words mercilessly, without feeling guilty at all. In his eyes, it was just a normal thing.
"Huh!"
Hester rested her head on his shoulder and chuckled. She thought the rtionship between her cousin
and Derek was really funny.
"What do you think? How do you feel when you see her and her fiance show their love here?"
Melody walked slowly to Terence, shaking the red wine in her hand. A hint of darkness shed through
her eyes, but with jealousy.
That woman was so lucky to have such a noble grandfather! But in this case, she should have to
change her n!
Otherwise, she would lose more.
ncing coldly at thecent Melody, Terence was in a worse mood. He raised his head and
drank up the red wine in his hand. The sour taste lingered on the tip of his tongue, making him very
ufortable.
"Thank you for your concern, Miss Melody. But it has nothing to do with you! Please keep a distance
from me in the future. Otherwise, I''m afraid that I can''t control myself and do something terrible!"
Melody smiled indifferently and covered her eyes. She tightened her grip on the goblet, with her
fingertips turning green, revealing her suppressed emotions.
"Mr. Terence, you must be kidding. No matter how bad our Si Group is, it has not been reduced to the
point of being kneaded casually!"
Although she liked Terence, she was not going to lose her mind. The idea of profit was deeply
engraved in her bones and she couldn''t give up.
If Qi Group and Si Group were to meet in a business war one day, she would definitely kill them all.
For her, if she couldn''t get it, it would be good to destroy it.
"I forgot that Miss Melody is the general manager of Si Group after all. Even if you have stayed in the
sanatorium for three years, there will be no change!"
Terence raised his lips and looked at Melody in front of him. She looked horrible.
"You said that we two are the same kind of people, so we know each other very well. I can figure out
your ns clearly!"
The two sat quietly in the corner, which was very ipatible with the noisy surroundings.
The most important thing of the dinner had been announced, and the rest was the battlefield for
business. Hester looked displeased and didn''t bother to deal with those tterers. She stood beside
Derek and yawnedzily.
"I''m sorry. My fiancee is a little tired. If you don''t have anything important, please excuse us."
Although Derek was usually cold, he did show his good manners today. He always wore a smile from
beginning to end, and his attitude was distant butfortable.
"I''m sorry!"
Derek kept apologizing to the people around him. Holding Hester''s arm, he slowly walked out of the
encirclement and finally sat in a rest area.
Hester sat on the sofa leisurely and took off her shoes secretly because her dress was long enough.
She leaned against the sofa and sighed.
"You are very unusual today!"
"You look gorgeous today!" said Derek in a low voice, raising his eyebrows. His thick and long
eyshes covered his eyes, casting a faint shadow at the corners of his eyes.
Her fingertips stroked the back of Hester''s hand. It was itchy, but it had nothing to do with ambiguity.
It was not because she was sentimental, but because this person was really abnormal today!
Trembling her lips, Hester said coldly, "Are you a kid?"
This belongs to N?velDrama.Org: ?.
Such a childish tongue was really making her speechless.
She withdrew her hand in silence. In public, Hester really didn''t have the courage to ept the gazes
of "love" from thedies.
"It seems that you get along well with each other!"
Edmund, who had won the argument with Leo, nodded with satisfaction at Hester with a red face. His
long-cherished wish finally came true today.
Hester raised her head to tuck the short hair around her ear, her eyes drooping slightly. She was not
dissatisfied with the marriage between. She just felt that it was a little unfair to her.
"Grandpa, why did you announce this news today? Why didn''t I know anything about it?"
Back then, Mrs. Qi had arranged a marriage for her in silence, and now the same scene happened.
"If you don''t want to, we will cancel the marriage." Edmund was slightly stunned and then said
indifferently. Anyway, he had already canceled once, and it didn''t matter if he would do it again.
"Your mother was engaged to the Yu family before, but after what happenedter, she had to cancel
the engagement unterally.
Because of this, I always feel guilty to their family. Now that you are back, I want to make up for you. I
always want to give you the best thing.
But after thinking about it for a while, I found that I could give you very little, so I wanted to make a
good marriage for you. As for Derek, I have known everything about him since he was a child. Only he
is the one I trust most."
Hester nodded to show that she knew it, but she couldn''t ovee the barrier in her heart. "I
understand!"
