Chapter 221: Bad peach blossom
As soon as Lindsey’s words left her mouth, she was immediately picked up by Bruce, his pleasant and smug laughter in her ears. “It’s okay, I’ll beg until you say yes.”
Lindsey blushed and pinched him. “You put me down, who proposes in a jewelry store.”
“Me.” Bruce blurted out. “Who says you can’t propose in a jewelry store.”
Carrying her to the door, Bruce took a step, turned back to the account manager and passed a wink, saying boldly, “Except for what she said she didn’t want, send it all to The Grant family.”
“Hey, you’re not.” Lindsey was anxious. “I don’t need those things.”
“I’ll buy it back even if it’s useless, as long as you’re happy.” Bruce looked down and kissed her on the red lips, smiling widely. “Or you can say you’ll marry me.”
“No way.” Lindsey laughed back. “No! I won’t marry!”
Bruce shrugged with a hurt face, carried her to the car, and ordered the driver to go back to the old house.
In the afternoon, he had planned to go to the beauty school to get the information, but did not go.
When Lindsey woke up from her nap, her legs were so sore that she couldn’t help but pinch Bruce hard.
Bruce caught her hand, a roll over and pressed her to the body, evil laugh out. “We still have to go back to the Royal Garden at night.”
Lindsey was silent, and then pinched him again before she let go.
The two of them reluctantly left the courtyard, got in the car and left for the garden.
When the two arrived, Old Mr. Grant was not back from his business trip, Bruce stayed in the study to call Cary because of business matters, Lindsey was bored by herself and went out for a stroll after brushing up on Twitter.
The people who can live in this mountain are basically big names, even in the whole H country, also important.
Lindsey did not dare to snoop around and just strolled aimlessly along the path.
The weather in B City in August has been much cooler, and the breeze comes with the occasional fragrance of flowers.
When she reached a gazebo and sat down, Lindsey was just thinking about calling Warren when a low voice suddenly came to her ears. “Miss Lindsey, we meet again.”
Lindsey subconsciously turned around and saw that it was Randy, so she nodded her head and smiled. “What a coincidence.”
“I’m Randy, I haven’t been formally introduced the few times we’ve met.” Randy smiled back and graciously sat down opposite her. “It’s nice to meet you.”
“Mr. Randy is obviously no stranger to me, so I think introductions are unnecessary.” Lindsey’s expression was light and she met his gaze calmly. “I wonder how long Mr. Randy has been following me.”
“Huh …” Randy had a hunch Lindsey was funny, he did follow her from the moment she left The Grant family’s door, not expecting her to know.
Lindsey raised an eyebrow and said coldly, “The first time I met Mr. Randy may be a coincidence, then the subsequent times, Mr. Randy can you explain the reason.”
In fact, the time she bumped into him, Lindsey knew that his status was not low, especially in the military. Therefore extra curious, his appearance, who is doing business for.
Randy faintly tapered his eyebrows and found that he actually felt a hint of pressure when facing Lindsey.
He didn’t deny that he did intend to approach her, but he was embarrassed by her calm questioning.
After a moment of silence, he unconsciously curled his lips and smiled. “You think too much, would you believe me if I said that it was an accidental encounter every time.”
Lindsey narrowed her eyes, shot him a non-committal look, and got up blandly.
Randy followed suit and walked in the same direction as her.
Nearing the door of The Grant family, Lindsey suddenly stopped in her tracks and smiled back at him. “I have a piece of advice for Mr. Randy. When you lie to people, you better lie to yourself first.”
After the words, she turned around and lifted her foot into the courtyard door.
Randy was slightly flabbergasted, and then smiled.
She knew that her defense was full of loopholes, but she held back until the end.
She knew her argument was full of holes, but she held it together until the very end. She had enough strength to teach Selena and Aurora for the rest of their lives.
Lindsey didn’t have time to worry about what he thought. She went straight upstairs to Bruce in the study and asked about the status of The Gregor family in the military.
“Why do you ask?” Bruce moved his laptop and looked at her with a suspicious expression, “Did you meet Randy again?”
“Well, I was just out and about and ran into him again.” Lindsey sat over and took his hand to pamper him. “Tell me about it, so that next time I won’t be able to resist the urge to take care of him, I’ll be prepared.”
“Old Mr. Gregor is the old head of the military commission, ranking ahead of Grandpa.” Bruce sank his voice. “Randy is the child of The Gregor family, Old Mr. Gregor’s one son and one daughter, who died in the counterattack against Vietnam, leaving only him behind. In my military school graduation competition, he had taken the championship by 0. 1 point.”
Lindsey heard, suddenly glad that he did not impulsively do.
Bruce paused and added: “He and I entered the military school at the same time, and went to West Point training together, but he is a cold personality, and does not like to deal with people.”
“No wonder I didn’t hear you say that.” Lindsey nodded thoughtfully. “The more you’re in a high position, the more low-key you are.”
“I’m low-key too, okay.” Bruce raised his hand to stop her shoulder and lowered his voice to a laugh. “Every time I make a high profile appearance, it’s basically for you.”
“I’m talking like the bad guy, and I don’t know who was the one who had the nerve to tell Grandpa that I was his girlfriend in the first place.” Lindsey also laughed, raising her hand to pinch his cheek and laughing out derisively. “Obviously you’re the one who’s not lonely.”
Bruce was speechless, grabbed her hand and kissed it, and was about to go downstairs when he heard a familiar voice coming from outside the door. “Why can’t you stay upstairs, there’s a guest room upstairs.”
Lindsey also heard Burton’s voice, suspicious look at Bruce, with only two people can hear the voice said: “I thought it would take a few days, how so soon out.”
Bruce spread his hands, said he did not know what was going on.
Burton was not able to stay upstairs, listening to the movement should follow the logistics to the first floor.
The first floor actually also has guest rooms, but basically all live in the logistics staff, no wonder he is not happy.
From the study, just in time to hear the logistics staff downstairs said Old Mr. Grant back, Bruce immediately took Lindsey’s hand downstairs.
In the living room, when Burton saw Old Mr. Grant enter, he smiled and rose to greet him, offering to take the briefcase in his hand. “Grandpa’s back.”
“No need for you to make a mess.” Old Mr. Grant chided, looked up at Lindsey and smiled, “Lindsey, take this bag to the study for me.”
“Okay.” Lindsey let go of Bruce’s hand, went over and mailed the bag, and turned her head upstairs.
Burton retracted his hand, which was frozen in mid-air, rubbed his nose and looked at Bruce, calling out weakly, “Cousin.”© NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
Bruce gave him a meaningless glance and sat down with Old Mr. Grant.
Mr. and Mrs. Kaley also rushed over and waited for Mr. and Mrs. Patton to enter the door, everyone got up and went to the dining room.
Each take their own seat, Old Mr. Grant sharp eyes, a round of the table, lightly spoke: “Charlotte why not come back.”
“Said she was on her way, she’ll be here soon.” Bruce answered. “She hasn’t had a good appetite lately.”
Old Mr. Grant nodded slightly, and then suddenly narrowed his tiger eyes and looked straight at Burton. “Do you know what you did wrong.”
Burton’s legs shook with fear, and he stood up then, hanging his head, not daring to speak.
Old Mr. Grant stared at him for a moment, waved his hand and gestured for him to sit down. “Next time you do something like that, get yourself out of The Grant family.”
Burton did not dare to speak out, nodding nervously.
The others also did not speak, silent, thinking about their own thoughts.
Among them, the most difficult is Kaley, son from birth is not Old Mr. Grant treatment, the couple is more strict with him, thinking that Old Mr. Grant will see one day.
He did see it, but it was a small conflict between their brothers.
After a few moments of silence, Old Mr. Grant opened his mouth again. “I read the report of the identification team today, Leon’s identity is not in doubt, but we have to wait for the DNA identification results.”
Bruce sniffed and sullenly answered. “Grandpa, my father’s funeral, should we start preparing now or wait for the results to come out.”
“Wait for the results, so people don’t think I’m desperate to take advantage of my son’s death.” Old Mr. Grant spoke with a strong look of anger on his face. “Aidan, this is in your hands.”
Aidan nodded, not moving to glance at Kaley, thinking that girls to the outside, this to the outrageous.
Leon’s remains have not been recovered for a few days, Kaley can not sit still again, began to move around.
The consequences of doing so are not considered.
Each thought sat for a while, the Charlotte couple finally arrived.
Lindsey exhaled, intuiting that this was not going to be a good meal tonight.
Old Mr. Grant is not in a good mood, the air pressure in the house is obviously much lower, plus a bad appetite Burton, want to eat well is really a bit difficult.
After a couple of games of chess with Old Mr. Grant, Lindsey’s stomach growled with hunger.
When she returned to her room, Lindsey opened the curtain to look out and complained to Bruce. “I’m starving, and I don’t want to stay here tonight.”
Bruce was a little embarrassed. “This is what Grandpa asked for, I can’t help it.”
After seeing Lindsey’s face still not open, pondering some suddenly said, “But I can take you out to eat, and then come back after.”
“Really can?” Lindsey’s eyes lit up and she happily jumped into his arms and kissed him fiercely. “That’s very kind of you.”
“Little Greedy Cat …,” Bruce pinched her nose and raised his hand to look at his watch. “We have to be back by 11:00, let’s go.”
As long as there is food, is packed to eat in the car Lindsey is not minded.
After going to the study and calling Old Mr. Grant, Bruce led Lindsey to the garage and got the car and went down the hill.
The two of them had no intention of going to the city, so they drove down the hill to Moon Pavilion, not noticing Burton’s car following them.
