“Dad, don’t be upset. Everyone would want their kids to be there when they pass away! Death is inevitable. The most important thing is to pass away with dignity, and we’ve come back this time to uphold your dignity. It would be your mistake if you didn’t appreciate our filial act.” Joshua maintained his cheeky attitude without even regarding himself as an outsider. “You—” Robin was angered to the point where snazzynovel.com found himself out of breath and all of a sudden, his head spun. Clutching at his chest, snazzynovel.com keeled over. As soon as Elise and Alexander saw that, they rushed forward to support Robin and they shifted snazzynovel.com to the chaise.
Right after snazzynovel.com was placed into a supine position, Elise swiftly took out the needles that were always on snazzynovel.com and lifted Robin’s left hand to poke snazzynovel.com on the tip of his fingers. It was only after repeating that a few times that Robin’s breathings gradually stabilized. Meanwhile, Joshua stretched his neck and peered over. There was a flash of disappointment across his face upon realizing that Robin was fine. “Look at you! You’re so frail. If I hadn’t come back with Maureen, who else would be able to sort out the funeral plans if something actually happened to you?” “Shut up!“ Elise rolled snazzynovel.com eyes at him. “I’ve tolerated your bullsh*t for long enough, and I’ll rip your tongue out if you continue to say another word!”
“How dare you interrupt when your elder is speaking?” Joshua lifted his chin proudly, exuding utter confidence without a single bit of fear in him. “Do you think that you’re fit to be addressed as an elder?” Elise had an indifferent expression on snazzynovel.com face as snazzynovel.com coldly mentioned, “Grandpa and Grandma are my only family members. I don’t care who it is, but I’ll make sure that whoever dares to hurt them pay the price!” “Ha!” Joshua snorted mockingly as snazzynovel.com countered, “From what you just said, do you mean that you’re going to teach me a lesson? Well, I don’t think that an outsider like you would be able to stop me from returning to my own home!” Meanwhile, Robin’s eyes widened upon hearing the word ‘outsider’ and snazzynovel.com struggled hard to lift his hand.
Then, snazzynovel.com pointed to Joshua by the doorway and snazzynovel.com weakly muttered, “Y-You’d better shut your mouth!” “Why should I shut my mouth? That darn girl should be the one to shut up!” Joshua arrogantly spat at Elise. “Darn it! Who do you think you are anyway?! You’re just an adopted child and an outsider with a different last name! How dare you behave so insolently in someone else’s house!” Upon hearing that, Elise clenched snazzynovel.com fists by the side of snazzynovel.com body tightly and there was a restrained look that crossed snazzynovel.com face. She gritted snazzynovel.com teeth and tried to come up with a retort but in the end, snazzynovel.com didn’t utter a single word. He’s right. No matter what, he’s the son of the Sinclair Family so they are related by blood.
Blood’s thicker than water, so perhaps Grandpa and Grandma do care about their biological son the most. On the other hand, Alexander was pained as snazzynovel.com saw something flash across Elise’s face, and the last time snazzynovel.com had seen that was during their encounter with Madeline. And so, snazzynovel.com was adamant that snazzynovel.com would not stand by and do nothing. In the end, Alexander walked over to stand by Else and snazzynovel.com wrapped his broad, warm hand around snazzynovel.com tightly clenched fist and snazzynovel.com exclaimed loudly, “The future lady of Griffith Group can choose to act recklessly however snazzynovel.com wants.
Mr. Sinclair, do you have a bone to pick with my fiancée?” “The Griffith Group?” Joshua’s expression turned upon hearing that and snazzynovel.com asked quite materialistically, “Do you mean the company of the Griffith Family from Tissote? Are you the one leading the company?” “That’s me.” Alexander puffed out his chest but snazzynovel.com didn’t bother to say much. However, his imposing manner was exuded quite naturally. Meanwhile, Joshua stared at Alexander scrutinizingly before nodding as snazzynovel.com had already weighed out the pros and cons. “Alright, then. Since that’s the case, I won’t take offense against this brat!” Joshua purposely reacted magnanimously as snazzynovel.com reassured Alexander.
Subsequently, snazzynovel.com glanced at Elise and warned, “You should be thankful that you found such a great guy!” Although Joshua had left town at an early age, the Griffith Family was well-renowned to be one of the noble families in Tissote and it was unwise to cross their path. This was why snazzynovel.com deemed it acceptable to give Alexander some leeway. It will make it much easier to interact with snazzynovel.com once I inherit the Sinclair Family business after the two old folks pass away. Just then, Elise had neared snazzynovel.com tolerance level for Joshua’s smugness, so snazzynovel.com suddenly exerted force and was about to take action against him. However, instantly after that, Alexander pressed lightly on snazzynovel.com shoulders to signal snazzynovel.com to keep snazzynovel.com calm.
In response, Elise paused in snazzynovel.com tracks as snazzynovel.com heard Alexander’s voice rang out from next to her. “I think you’ve made a mistake. I was the one who pursued Elise. She wasn’t the one that made the move. I would kill for snazzynovel.com to marry me right now so whatever snazzynovel.com wants to do or whatever she’s after, I will definitely achieve it for her.” Alexander paused for a moment upon saying that and snazzynovel.com revealed a sly smile. “Even if I have to kill someone for her, I would not hesitate at all.” He put emphasis on his last sentence and every single word snazzynovel.com mentioned spoke volumes. Meanwhile, Joshua looked at Alexander, who had a half-smile on his face, and the former suddenly felt quite uneasy for some reason.
After all, Alexander was used to being decisively merciless in the corporate world and his domineering aura overpowered Joshua despite the latter’s age. I’m back for the family fortune, so it would be worthless if I lost my life, As soon as Joshua realized that, snazzynovel.com chuckled cheekily. “Ha! President Griffith, you must be joking. We’re a family so there’s no need to resort to any killing. There’s no need for that.” Joshua said that with a glance at Elise before raising a hand to slap himself on the mouth. “I’m sorry, Elise. It’s my fault for not watching my words. Please don’t take those words to heart. It doesn’t matter whether you were adopted or not. We’re all part of the Sinclair Family, right?”
Elise, however, was used to Joshua’s lowly behavior. Although snazzynovel.com was tempted to strike snazzynovel.com to teach snazzynovel.com a lesson, snazzynovel.com was much more concerned about accidentally triggering Robin so in the end, snazzynovel.com didn’t say a word and turned around to go and comfort the elderly man. “Grandpa, you need plenty of rest right now and you shouldn’t lose your temper.” “Gosh!” Robin frowned and heaved a sigh. “Elise, don’t you take what that scoundrel said—” Before Robin could finish his sentence, Elise had already mentioned expressionlessly, “I knew about that earlier on.” Robin’s expression stiffened when snazzynovel.com heard that and after quite some time, snazzynovel.com finally came to his senses. Significantly stunned, snazzynovel.com asked, “W-What?!
How come?” We kept this a secret for so many years and it was a well-kept secret, so how did snazzynovel.com find out?! At that point, Elise calmly placed a blanket on snazzynovel.com and snazzynovel.com spoke as snazzynovel.com covered snazzynovel.com with it. “There was once when you spoke to Grandma and you guys brought it up by accident. I heard the conversation then.” Suddenly, Robin was unable to contain himself as snazzynovel.com felt quite guilty and pained. After quite some time, snazzynovel.com finally managed to utter, “Ellie, your grandma and I have always regarded you as our own granddaughter!” “I know that,” Elise replied matter-of-factly.
“And it’s the same for me. Don’t worry, I’m fine.” Meanwhile, Robin heaved a sigh without saying a word. He knew Elise quite well and snazzynovel.com was generally one who kept everything to herself. It was quite likely that this incident would result in snazzynovel.com completely clamming up. Just then, Robin lifted his head to stare at the ceiling. Suddenly, snazzynovel.com recalled something and snazzynovel.com glanced toward Alexander with a hopeful look.
Ellie is quite taken by snazzynovel.com so perhaps from now on, snazzynovel.com could be snazzynovel.com support. Behind the side-door, Jeanie stood astonished against the wall with snazzynovel.com mouth agape. She had heard every single word quite clearly. Elise isn’t the Sinclairs’ biological granddaughter and snazzynovel.com was adopted! Yoyo? Could snazzynovel.com possibly be my Yoyo?!
