Will he? Murray found it difficult to reply to her.
Sotis, no answer is the best answer. lissa curled her lips, "You won’t love , either. So my freedom is where I go, who I et, or even who I flirt with. It has nothing to do with the Gibson family. We will be annulling our engagent in three months. Mr. Gibson, aren’t you being too nosey?"
Finishing her speech, lissa pushed him out of the door without hesitation. "I want to rest. If that’s all, please leave!"
Murray’s handso face twitched. He was pissed off. This woman was driving away?
"Bang!"lissa slamd the door.
Murray was furious.
It was the first ti a woman drove him away.
He wanted to help her work. The reason why he asked Susie to give lissa the project was to assist her in improving her work ability. He assud that lissa as a newcor being responsible for such a big project would be difficult. Therefore, So he decided to teach her. Now there was no need for that. lissa didn’t appreciate it at all.
lissa didn’t know what Murray was thinking at the mont. If she knew that he regarded her as a newcor to gain experience, she would be stupefied.
After kicking Murray out, lissa took out a computer from the suitcase and opened the encrypted file. Inside was a new dress she designed.
lissa has another mysterious identity, Loe, the world’s most famous fashion designer.
Two years ago, Loe designed the wedding dress for the Princess of Yorwald, making her famous all over the world overnight. She ranked first on the global top fashion designer list for two years.
However, no one knows her face. She never showed up or accepted dia interviews. The head of her studio, Nina Paul represented her in making all the announcents.
People only knew the na "Loe", and they didn’t even know if "Loe" was a man or a woman. If people knew that the famous Loe was a young girl in her 20s, they would be shocked.
lissa devoted herself to the work. She modified a few details to finish her design. She sent the design final draft to Nina, informing her "Release this Ailsa series now."
Soon, Nina replied, "Roger."
...
Sunday.
Early in the morning, Murray took lissa to the Gibson’s house.
The house was a three-story villa located halfway up the mountain, surrounded by lush mountains and rivers. It was beautiful.
Butler Jose warmly welcod Murray and lissa into the house.
"Where’s Grandfather?" Murray walked in.
Jose smiled. "Mr. Marc is waiting for you. This must be Ms. Eugen. Mr. Marc has been talking about you for a long ti."
lissa nodded smilingly.
Reaching out a hand, Murray eyed lissa, implying lissa to hold his hand.
"What are you doing?" lissa looked at him warily.
"I hope you can behave better in front of grandfather. He didn’t feel well." Murray signed.
lissa could think on her feet. Just hesitating for a few seconds, she put her hands on his.
Anyway, she hoped Marc, her grandpa’s friend, would be healthy and live long.
They walked side by side into the living room.
Sitting in the living room was an old man with gray hair and a pair of gold-rimd glasses. It was Marc, Murray’s grandfather.
"Grandfather." Murray walked towards him.
lissa followed behind him and smiled. "How are you, Mr. Marc."
Marc stood up slowly, excitedly looking at lissa. "Good. li, long ti no see. You are more beautiful now. Great."
The last ti he t lissa was five years ago when she was a high school girl. Now, she had turned out to be a young and elegant lady. She was a perfect wife for Murray.
"Mr. Marc, are you alright? My grandfather misses you all the ti." lissa held Marc’s arm by his side, secretly checking his pulse.
When lissa was little, she was not as healthy as now. Various kinds of illnesses haunted her. Thus, her grandfather specially invited a senior doctor to care for her. Accompanying the doctor for years, lissa was also proficient in dicine and cure.
She found that Marc’s pulse was flat and stable. He was extrely healthy! lissa was stunned for a second. So...Marc pretended to be ill?
Looking at Murray’s worried face, lissa suddenly realized that perhaps Marc lied to Murray only to make Murray bring her here. Murray seems to be a dutiful grandson. As for Marc, lissa internally laughed; he had made every effort to make Murray get married. Unfortunately, she couldn’t be with Murray. Marc would be disappointed three months later.
Figuring out Marc’s trick, lissa glanced at Murray.
Murray held lissa’s hand intimately, while lissa subconsciously wanted to break free from him. But then she recalled the agreent she made with Murray, she stopped with body stiffened and awkwardly smiling.
Finding out their closeness, Marc smiled with delight.
Just then Jose said, "Mr. Marc, Mrs. Gibson and Ms. Yale arrived."
Mrs. Gibson?
Ms. Yale?
lissa frowned slightly, seeing Sarah walk in with Adela.
"Dad, are you feeling better? Our Adela was so worried. She asked to check on you many tis."
"Hello, Mr. Marc. I heard that you are ill. I wanted to visit you for a long ti, but I was afraid to disturb you," Adela said.
Marc still smiled, but his expression stiffened a little. He always knew what Adela was thinking about Murray. He also understood that Sarah liked Adela and didn’t like lissa due to her countryside background.
However, from Marc’s perspective, lissa was way better than Adela. That was also the truth. It was just that they didn’t know lissa’s true identity.
"Mom, why are you here?" When he saw Adela, Murray beca gloomy.
He wondered, What was Adela here for?
"Adela always wanted to see you. She had ti today, so she ca here with ." Sarah smiled and pushed Adela to Murray.
Adela deliberately stood between Murray and lissa. She pouted to Murray, pushing lissa aside.
lissa pursed her lips. She knew Sarah didn’t like her. Was Sarah trying to scare her by bringing Adela here?
Adela stared at Murray with infatuation. "Murray, my brother will be back in a few days. Do you have the ti to hang out with us?"
"I don’t have ti." Murray refused coldly.
"Are you busy?" Adela was disappointed.
Murray strode over to Adela and wrapped his arms around lissa’s slender waist. "lissa just arrived in Aldness. I will take her to see around."
lissa was startled, then she cooperatively snuggled into Murray’s arms, saying coquettishly, "I want you to go shopping with ."
Murray nodded dotingly.
Hearing their intimated talk, Adela was so jealous that grit her teeth tightly. She had to suppress her feeling of crazy jealousy to smile awkwardly. To get herself distracted, she handed a gift to Marc.
"Mr. Marc, this is a top-notch tonic. It’s very nourishing and is most suitable for the elderly. My grandfather specially asked to bring it back from abroad," Adela said with eyes curving.
Pausing for a second, she turned to lissa. "Ms. Eugen, there’s no such a good thing in the countryside, right? Maybe you haven’t seen it before? I will bring so for you next ti when I have the chance."
Ignoring Adela’s sarcasm, lissa replied impolitely, "No need."
Sarah shook head, sighing in a low but clear voice, "How can a countryside bumpkin be my son’s wife?"
Adela smiled, with this comparison, Marc would realize she, as a lady from a noble family, would more match Murray. Adela heard that Marc arranged Murray’s marriage. She loved Murray for a long ti. This was the last opportunity she had to seize to make Marc change his mind. Sarah had told her that lissa was the fiancée that Marc had set for Murray, and Murray had only agreed because he was forced to. So, as long as she could leave a good impression on Marc and disgrace lissa in front of Marc, then becoming Mrs. Gibson was not difficult.
Adela wouldn’t let lissa go easily, continuing to ask her "Ms. Eugen, what gift did you bring to Mr. Marc?" Disdain flashed across Adela’s eyes.
Three won at war. Marc and Murray were embarrassed.
lissa blinked at Adela and said, "I didn’t bring any gifts."
What she said was indeed rude.
Everyone was stunned.
