Chapter 52: Family lawyer
"I respect Grandfather’s decision," Alex said.
Jack’s heart sank.
"I have no objection," Emma quickly said.
"Well, in that case, I agree too."
"I have no objection."
"Uh, I have no objection either:"
Several mbers of the Miller family successively expressed their agreent. Only Claire remained seated, like an outsider.
"What about you?" Jack patiently stared at Alex and asked. Claire raised her eyes and glanced at him lightly. This appearance made Jack burn with anger. Not only did she not cooperate, but she also looked at him with such a contemptuous gaze?
"l don’t understand business, so I have no objection," Claire said.
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was stunned. But soon, everyone ca to their senses. Claire’s aning was nothing more than that she didn’t understand business rules at all.
This understanding made everyone shake their heads. Can a woman who knows nothing and yet tries to get close to help the Miller family get through the difficult tis?
"Since no one else has any objections, I will keep this will for now," Edward said with a professional smile, raising his voice.
"Of course, the final decision still rests with Mr. Miller."
"If there are any changes, I will actively cooperate with everyone."
"If there’s nothing else, I won’t disturb you any longer. I’ll take my leave."
With that, Edward left the private room, leaving the Miller family mbers looking at each other in confusion. Alex still had a cold expression, making it difficult for the other Miller family mbers to approach him even if they wanted to exchange pleasantries.
Claire remained calm and observant throughout the eting. When the lawyer finally left, and Alex showed no signs of leaving, she couldn’t help but feel a little anxious. He leaned closer to Claire and quietly poked his hand with her finger. Alex turned his head to look at her, "What?" His voice was low and gentle, and Claire only felt that her face was slightly hot.
Such Alex is really charming. She pursed her lips and smiled, "ls there anything else? If not, let’s go back first."
Alex raised his eyebrows upon hearing this, as if he had no intention of leaving. Claire sighed helplessly: "You are such a busy big boss anyway, shouldn’t you handle the company’s affairs? What ti is it? If you don’t go back to sleep, you will delay your work Alex turned his head to look at her, "What?" His voice was low and gentle, and Claire only felt that her face was slightly hot Such Alex is really charming.
She pursed her lips and smiled, "ls there anything else? If not, let’s go back first."
Alex raised his eyebrows upon hearing this, as if he had no intention of leaving. Claire sighed helplessly: "You are such a busy big boss anyway, shouldn’t you handle the company’s affairs? What ti is it? If you don’t go back to sleep, you will delay your work right?
When Alex heard this, the corners of his mouth drew an evil curve. He stared at Claire’s face and said slowly, "Since you know I’m so busy, why did you ask
to co?"
"Since you know it’s late, why don’t you listen to
and go back to sleep?" At first, when he received a call from Edward, he didn’t want to co. After all, it was already late, and seeing that Mr. Miller was fine, he had no reason to stay any longer.
If it weren’t for Claire’s insistence, he wouldn’t sit here and waste ti at all. These words were extrely domineering, but they were inexplicably ambiguous in Claire’s ears. Although she had already made enough ntal preparations, she couldn’t help but blush and her heart is beating now as he was teasing her like this.
She gritted her teeth and stared at Alex, "What nonsense are you talking about?"
He really didn’t need to rush back, but... Claire blinked her eyes, "This is about the future after all, how could you not be there?"
Now that the matter is over, if we don’t go back. Then why are we still sitting here? "Alex didn’t answer, but looked at Jack’s with a aningful smile. Claire followed the trend and was stunned. The man who was standing at the door had walked in without knowing when.
Jack fixed his eyes on Claire’s back with malicious intentions. Seeing that she turned her head, he imdiately put on a kind smile and said
"Claire, right? I’m Alex’s uncle. This is the second ti we’ve t." With that said, he stretched out his hand towards Claire. His attitude is very warm. Claire was a little confused. Before She reached out his hand, Alex took the initiative shake it. The force he used was not light, and it hurt Jack’s hand, making him frown subconsciously.
"Hello, Uncle." He called out calmly. Claire hurriedly called out along with him. Alex stood up, stopped her slender waist, and said, "it’s late at night. If Uncle has nothing to do, he should go back and rest early, after all, you are getting old. If you don’t sleep well, I’m afraid your body will collapse."
Jack’s face darkened, and he was about to speak when Alex raised his hand and said
"if you have anything to say, let’s talk about it next ti we et. My wife is tired so don’t disturb our two-person life at night."
Jack’s face froze completely.
This bastard dared to use his age to run on him. His face twitched, but he still couldn’t suppress his anger. He sneered and joked.
"I haven’t said anything yet, and you’re covering it? Alex, you’re my Nephew. When did you get picked on by a woman? Don’t worry, we are still a family. I ca here just to get acquainted with this newcor of the Miller family. After all, you will spend your whole life with each other in the future." Alex sneered and said, "l am responsible for my marriage, so I naturally know what to do."
After that, he led Claire and walked out, not bothering to talk nonsense to him. Jack’s face beca more and more ugly, but he kept his purpose in mind, and he didn’t dare to neglect, so he hurriedly chased after him, saying
"Wait, Claire!"
