Chapter 30 Grandma Wants to See You
Seeing the woman staring at him with fear, Damon frowned slightly. He did not expect her to have such a big reaction.
“This is my home, and where else can I be if I am not here?” Damon raised his eyebrows.
As he spoke, he slowly bent down and picked up the documents scattered on the ground. After seeing the words on it, he understood what she was doing.
“I… I didn’t mean that. It’s just that you appeared too suddenly and scared me.” Adele blushed.
Damon put the document in his hand on the table. Looking at the woman’s frightened look, he couldn’t help but feel a little funny. “Are you so timid?”
Adele paused and said with a red face, “Yes, I am.”
“Then I’ll be careful next time. How’s the work going? Can it be settled? Do you need my help?” Damon asked with a smile.
Adele was stunned. She only reacted when she saw Damon pointing at the documents on the table with his chin.
“No need. I want to complete my work with my own strength. It can be considered as… using this opportunity to prove myself.” She shook her head.
She knew very well that Damon could solve the problem in front of her with just a word, but she didn’t want to. She wanted to prove her ability to everyone.
Seeing the woman’s determined eyes, Damon suddenly felt a little relieved. He smiled with satisfaction and said softly, “Up to you.”
After a few seconds, he became a little more serious and whispered, “I have something to tell you. I will take you back to the old house this Saturday. Grandma wants to see you.”
“Grandma?”
Adele had only heard about Damon’s grandmother from Ms. Henderson before. In the beginning, the blind date had been arranged by Ms. Henderson and Damon’s grandmother, but they had not met yet.
Now that Damon suddenly said that his grandmother wanted to see her, she was actually a little nervous.
“Yes, Grandma heard that we have got our certificate, so she asked me to take you back quickly.”
Adele clenched her hands together, “But I…”
Before she could finish her sentence, she thought of the scene of Damon celebrating Professor Wes’ birthday with her a few days ago. She could not bring herself to refuse.
No matter what, she and Damon were now legally married. If she was shy and refused to see her elders, it would not make sense.
“I will go with you.” Adele looked up at Damon and whispered.
“Alright, you should rest early.” Damon nodded slightly.
After saying this, the man turned around and walked out of the room.
The moment the door was closed, Adele’s nervousness was released in an instant. She anxiously spun around in place.
She was going to see Damon’s parents, and how could she not be nervous!
Since she was going to see his parents, she had to bring some gifts to show her sincerity, but she did not know how to pick gifts!
Adele, who had no idea what to do, was anxious in the room. In the end, she had no choice but to pick up her phone and call her best friend who was far away in England.
“Hello, Emily!”
“Adele? Why did you think of calling me at this time?” Emily Baker asked in surprise.
“Don’t ask about other things first. Tell me first. What kind of gift would be suitable for a grandma?”
“A grandma?” Emily was confused. “What grandmother? Are you going to visit some lonely old woman in the nursing home?”
“I’m serious. It’s for my…”
Adele paused and swallowed the word “husband”.
Emily had been studying music abroad. They had not seen each other for nearly half a year. Recently, she had gotten her certificate at top speed and had not had time to tell her.
If Emily knew that she had become a married girl a step earlier than her, she would probably fly back from the United States to interrogate her.
It was better to wait for her to return to the country and tell her face to face.
“A friend’s grandmother. I’m going to visit her this weekend.” Adele paused.
“A friend’s grandmother? Which friend, boyfriend?” Emily was keenly aware of the smell of gossip.Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
“No, cut the crap. Hurry up and tell me what present is suitable.” Adele was a little nervous.
“Let me think… Since it’s a Grandma, the more practical it is, the better. What about a massage device? Or a cashmere carpet?”
Hearing Emily say this, Adele’s eyes suddenly lit up. She couldn’t help but say, “That’s right! Why didn’t I think of it?”
“If it doesn’t work, just give her a set of tinware! Old people will definitely like it!”
“That’s right, that’s right.” Adele nodded repeatedly.
The two of them talked about it. Unknowingly, they had talked a lot. When Adele hung up the phone, it was already more than an hour later. She wrote down the list of gifts that she had just thought of. Only then did her originally panicked mood ease up a little.
Now, the last thing she had to do was to prepare these gifts before the weekend and everything would be done!
Adele looked at all kinds of massage devices online and did not sleep until late at night. She got up late the next morning. When she rushed from the villa to the company in a panic, she was almost late.
The morning meeting ended. Adele returned to her office. She was just about to contact a few gifts suppliers she had seen yesterday, and the phone rang.
“Hello? Administrative department.”
“Hello, is that Ms. Wes? I am the receptionist. Someone is looking for you.”
“Looking for me? Who is it?” Adele was shocked.
“Ms. Garcia and Mr. Davis.”
Adele instantly knew who they were.
After hesitating for a moment, Adele said in a low voice, “Let them wait a moment, I will go down now.”
Last time at River City International, if Damon had not appeared in time, she was afraid that she would have been defiled. After that, she learned the truth from Ben. It was Michelle who had instigated Jacquelin and Ms. Garcia to make such a move.
She did not expect that Michelle and Sam would actually dare to come and look for her now!
Adele felt stifled in her heart. She put down the phone and left the office without hesitation. When she reached the lobby on the first floor, she saw Michelle and Sam sitting on the sofa area of the lobby from afar.
When Michelle saw Adele, she immediately pulled Sam and pulled him up to walk toward her.
Before she got close, she smiled at Adele and said, “Adele, you finally came. We have been waiting for you for long!”
Seeing that Michelle seemed to have changed into a different person, Adele was stunned at first. Looking at the woman’s hypocritical smile, she frowned uncomfortably. “Why are you looking for me?”
