222 Willing to Marry
“Do you think I don’t know?” Christian snorted coldly. His gaze was fixed on Surya’s face.
He knew very well what his grandfather was like. How could his grandfather keep up with the latest news if not for Surya telling him. That ans, he was summoned to this main house because of Surya.
Surya was still smiling, calm like a solid mountain. “I don’t understand what you an, sir.”
Surya had been working as a butler for decades. Of course he could face Christian very easily, diverting the conversation and dodging Christian’s accusations.
Christian had no intention of continuing this conversation with Surya. There was no longer any point in talking to soone who was good with words. This would only make Christian feel even more annoyed.
Finally, Christian went straight into the house to et his grandfather.
Christian passed by a garden decorated with koi ponds and various greenery. A path made of stone stretched to the main building. Light shone from the ground, brightening the atmosphere, very different from Christian’s current mood.
As soon as Christian stepped through a door, an authoritative voice was heard. “I thought you wouldn’t co.”
The family room was decorated in a classic style. All the carvings looked very striking but did not collide with each other.
.....
“Hmm ...” Christian imdiately sat on the sofa, right in front of Hartono, his grandfather. His gaze was fixed on the old man in front of him. “Why did you send here?” Christian’s voice didn’t sound annoyed, nor did it sound scared. His tone was very flat.
However, Hartono felt angry when he noticed it.
He frowned and looked at his grandson in annoyance. “Try to think, why did I summon you here? Who is she?”
“She? Since when do I have a special relationship with a woman? Don’t make it up.”
Christian takes the tea that has been served on the table and drinks it elegantly. Coincidentally, the tea in front of him was the sa kind of tea that Ella made for him.
This tea tasted much better than Ella’s, but he didn’t intend to finish it. For so reason, the tea that Ella made suited his tongue better.
“You still want to hide it from ?” Hartono snorted as he picked up the newspaper beside him, throwing it at Christian. “See for yourself.”
Does his grandson not understand the anxiety he feels right now? When did his grandson ever get involved with won, especially in front of the dia like this?
This woman is definitely different to Christian.
However, Hartono will not let this happen.
To him, his grandson deserved to be with the best woman in this world. While the woman who is beside Christian at this ti, is very inappropriate for him.
Christian takes the newspaper lazily.
The photo posted there is a photo of Ella kissing his cheek. The angle is so good that it shows Ella’s shy expression and her flushed cheeks.
Her lips curled into a slight smile as she pressed it against Christian’s cheek.
Instead of being annoyed, Christian even felt very satisfied with the photo.
“Hmm...” Christian put the newspaper down and replied, “Nice picture.”
“You!” Hartono felt his anger rising. Christian’s comnt was completely opposite to what he imagined.
“Master, calm down.” Surya rushed closer to Hartono and patted him on the back. “Your health is not good. You have to control your emotions.” After that, Surya turned to Christian. “Master, you haven’t visited Grand Master in a long ti. Grandmaster’s current health...”‘
“So? Are you accusing of causing my grandfather’s health to decline?” Christian pouted at Hartono. “Your butler seems very competent, huh.”
Surya could only lower his head after receiving the rebuke from Christian.
“What’s with that attitude of yours?” Hartono imdiately feels displeased when his butler is reprimanded by Christian. “Surya has served this family since you were a child.”
It is true that Surya has been Hartono’s servant since they were young. The relationship between them is not only master and servant, but more towards friends. The kind of relationship that can’t be easily destroyed.
Hartono also treats Surya very well, almost like a brother.
If Christian reprimanded Surya, of course Hartono would feel enraged.
“So what?” Christian chuckled as if he’s listening to the silliness. “He was a servant and our family paid a big price for him.”
“Christian!” Hartono stomped the stick he was carrying hard. His brow furrowed because he could not accept what his grandson said.
“Sir,” Surya put his hand on Hartono’s shoulder, telling him to calm down. “There will be guests arriving in a mont.”
Surya’s voice, which did not waver, was finally able to quell Hartono’s emotions. “I know.” He knew that Surya was not offended by Christian’s words.
Apart from that, Surya is right. Soon, there will be guests coming. It wouldn’t be good if the atmosphere beca awkward because of their bickering.
Christian just listened to their conversation without any feelings. With a straight face, he took a sip of the tea in front of him.
After a while, he raised his hand to look at the watch on his wrist. After that, he rose to his feet. “If there’s nothing else, I’ll go ho first.”
“Do you think I will allow you?” Hartono stands up to prevent Christian from leaving. Just as he was about to speak again, suddenly a voice stopped him.
“Tian, ??long ti no see!” A soft female voice was heard, followed by the appearance of a woman in a beige dress. The woman had dark black hair that fell like a waterfall, adding a graceful and elegant impression to her.
The makeup on her face was light and not overdone. Her every move shows that she is a highly educated and ethical woman.
The smile on her face brightens, especially when she sees Christian there.
“Nadia, you’ve co!” Hartono’s face looked surprised, his eyes radiating happiness.
Nadia’s gaze was imdiately fixed on Hartono. “Grandpa!” She approached Hartono and greeted him by holding his arm as if they were tied by blood. “How are you?”
“I’m fine. I’m glad you still rember an old man like ,” Hartono looked at Nadia with satisfaction in his heart.
This was the granddaughter-in-law he wanted to be, not the woman who appeared in the newspaper with Christian!
Hartono thought for a mont and then took Nadia’s hand towards Christian.
“You haven’t seen each other in a long ti right? How about you guys chat first. I rember when you were little, you were very close. Every day you always play together.”
Hartono looked at the two young people in front of him with a satisfied look.
Nadia stepped forward and looked at Christian with a smile on her face. “Tian also said that he wanted to marry once.”
