***** The moment the old Matriarch was escorted inside the company, she felt the atmosphere filled with excitement, but she didn’t give a single fuck when everybody in sight rushed to greet her respectfully.Without responding to them, she rushed to the CEO's office exhilaratingly while busily imagining the important person said to be present by her grandson.But the moment she reached the entrance to the office, she stopped for a moment to calm her thundering heart which was caused by the way she had run.It was only after some moments of effort does she finally calmed down greatly and the countenance of a grandiose old grandmother descended upon her.This was the countenance she had on at her birthday banquet before Rex Magnus and Alan Bottoms got involved.After she eventually successfully controlled her emotions, the Old Matriarch finally mustered her courage and pressed the little button on the door.Even before she could take the finger she had used off, the door

***** Just as beads of sweat were starting to appear on Ethan's forehead, the Old Matriarch finally opened her mouth and spoke, gazing intently at Rivers Rodriguez. “On behalf of the company, I apologize for not informing you before taking the action we took. We also have no other option than to act because our hands were tied.”The instant Ethan Heard this, he hurriedly nodded his head profusely, supporting his grandmother's statement. ‘Ho! You are so great, grandmother! Even I who knew the best almost believed you, what would this man who knew nothing do?’If Rivers Rodriguez was to hear his thought right now, he would have become utterly speechless while thinking in his mind that he wasn’t a fool like Ethan because right now, Rivers Rodriguez was only filled with sarcasm in his mind.‘These pair of Grandmother and her Grandson… are they taking me as a fool?’Just as he thought this, Rivers Rodriguez abruptly released a deep sigh, startling both the Matriarch and h

*****“That’s right, Old Woman, it is us two brothers that taught him a lesson, and if not for master that stopped us, I wouldn’t have minded turning him into a waste to teach him a lesson he would never forget for the rest of his life just for the fact that he dared to be rude to our master like that!”The Old Matriarch became dumbfounded when she heard this, and followed by this was a great awkwardness which also immediately disappeared the moment it arrived.Just like in a fast-track movie, all sorts of expressions began to flick on the Old Matriarch's face.At last, a tinge of anger coupled with hatred, helplessness, worry, and tiredness remained on the Old Matriarch's face.After staring at Rivers Rodriguez for a while, the Old Matriarch eventually turns back to stare at her precious grandson with the most caring gaze ever.“Grand… grandma, I’m… I’m so scared!”Like a little kid who had been scared by ghosts, Ethan suddenly embarrassed his grandmother tightly, his face fil

***** While Rex Magnus was busily thinking in his mind, Fiona who understood what her mother was uttering could be seen looking completely brokenhearted right now with a dreadful smile on her face.‘Back then, I was married to him by my brother and grandfather without my consent. Now again, my mother and grandmother wished to marry me to another person without caring about my thought and opinion.’Fiona couldn’t help but suddenly gaze at Rex Magnus with accusation painting in her eyes heavily.‘He caused all these!’“Three seconds to go!”Sally’s voice suddenly woke Rex Magnus and Fiona up.But before they could react, Sally's voice already sounded again, with greater excitement. “One second left!”Fiona and Rex Magnus instantly became deeply scared. But just as Sally was about to call out; ‘time up', a tune began to play, startling the trio to their core.But still, Sally managed to say it after one second.With that, a relieved and excited look appeared on her fac

***** Hearing his wife’s question, David didn’t respond nor show any intention of doing so.Of cause, he was smart, so he already had a strong feeling that his daughter and her husband already has a tacit understanding between themselves.Also, seeing how his daughter was acting, the haunch became stronger, so David decided to say nothing.As for Fiona, she simply doesn’t know what to tell her mother, so she could only give Rex Magnus a helpless gaze.Seeing this, Rex Magnus immediately became speechless.‘Look at her, although she was clearly asking for help, the look in her eyes is still as cold as ever.’After thinking this, Rex Magnus gazed back at his mother-in-law.“Mother, I really meant what I said.”“You…”Seeing as his mother-in-law is about to start flaming up again, Rex Magnus immediately interjected. “Mother, I actually didn’t lose the wager we just had.”The instant Sally heard this, the look on her face changed, suddenly becoming contemptuous and fil
