Although the two had never formally met, Jorge was very familiar with Alice. This woman had a long-standing relationship with his grandson in life, and was the woman who stayed with him the longest.
But only Jorge knew her well; Alice did not know him at all.
So when Jorge first saw Alice, he recognized her immediately.
Alice stood still, unmoving smiling and blinking at Jorge, -Sir, do you know me?
This sentence made Jorge stop thinking.
He looked at the woman with a mischievous smile on his lips and he became serious.
-That’s a very interesting question.
In fact, she asked him if he knew her.
She was pretending as if she had never met him, Jorge scoffed in his heart, it seemed that this girl was smarter than he thought.
Just by looking at her, Jorge was surprised.
Before coming, he thought the girl might be a recent college graduate, or just a woman who admired vanity. Just as long as he gave her money and told her some threats, she would go away. It would be a piece of cake.
But what he never expected was that the girl was neither a college student nor an ordinary person.
He should have thought about his grandson’s temperament, how could he love any woman?
In those bygone days, he had only liked one woman.
Unexpectedly…
Unexpectedly, another one was her.
In this case, it would be problematic!
-Sir, why is this question interesting? -Alice tilted her head slightly as she looked at George and asked.
She had guessed that Jorge knew her, but before he didn’t admit it, then she might as well pretend as if she didn’t know anything.
Anyway, he had erased everything between her and Kennedy without any word of explanation.
Jorge looked at the woman in front of him, his eyes narrowed slightly. She looked prettier than she looked in the photo, with three-dimensional features and a classic face, plus her cool temperament, which interpreted the unique beauty of oriental women very well.
Her grandson fell in love with such a woman, which meant that he had good taste.
However, in his heart, only Zoe was qualified to be his grandson’s wife, no matter how good the woman looked in front of him, she was not qualified.
Since she wanted to play dumb, he satisfied her.
Jorge snorted coldly and looked back, -You flirt with my grandson in the company. Have you never asked others who I am? You dare to ask me if I know you. You are quite bold.
Alice smiled slightly, -Thank you for your compliment, but I don’t understand what you are saying. How come I flirt with your grandson? Ever since I started working at the company and I’ve done very well. I don’t seem to have done anything to push the limits, have I?
These words reached Jorge’s ears as an objection. He snorted and slapped the table hard with his hand, -You still dare to say that you have done nothing to overcome the limits. Do you still want me to ask someone to relieve the truth?
-I do things with a clear conscience, even if you find some people to say something, I don’t feel guilty.
She smiled calmly, she was not nervous.
Jorge narrowed his eyes, if it hadn’t been for Kennedy telling him with certainty last night that he wouldn’t be engaged to Zoe, and wouldn’t give up the person he loved. He almost thought that the girl in front of him had no relationship with Kennedy, but after saying that, how could he believe it?
This girl was stubborn and used sophistry.
-Girl, it is not a glorious thing if you dare not acknowledge what you have done.
-Sir, I don’t understand what you want me to acknowledge.
George looked at the butler beside him, and the butler immediately pulled an envelope from his pocket and walked over to Alice.
-This is what Monsieur wants to give you,” the butler respectfully took the envelope to Alice, his attitude was kind and his eyebrows did not look fierce at all.
Alice thanked him, but did not accept the envelope in his hand.
-There’s a check in this envelope, take it!
Jorge said coldly.
Alice didn’t move, she looked at the envelope and blinked, -Sir, I don’t quite understand what you mean, why should I receive your check?
George was impatient, -Don’t play dumb, Kennedy is my grandson. Do you accept this check or not?
Hearing this, Alice nodded. She seemed to barely understand. Then she reached out and took the envelope from the butler and smiled at him, -Thank you, sir.
The butler looked at her quizzically, trying to say something, but finally stepped aside.
Only his glance at Alice was a little disappointed. He was standing outside the studio last night, so naturally he heard what Kennedy said.
He firmly stated that he would not be engaged to Zoe, nor would he give up his love, even threaten his grandfather with his identity.
At that moment, the butler just thought what kind of girl could make the young master so tempted and stubborn, he should come today to take a look.
Therefore, when Alice did not accept the envelope, the butler had a good impression on his heart, but he did not expect her to accept it.
Was his young master’s sincere love worth nothing?
After Alice took the envelope, the smile on her face became a little sweet, she bowed in Kennedy’s direction and then apologized, -Thank you, grandfather.
The butler was surprised and almost thought he had misheard.
So he looked at Jorge and asked him with his eyes, had he just heard the word “grandfather”?
Jorge obviously heard it too, and scolded, -What did you say?
Alice held up the envelope, -Thank you, Grandpa. You knew I was with Kennedy, so you came here to give me a gift for the first meeting, didn’t you? Although I don’t think I need to spend that much money, but since it’s your goodwill, I definitely can’t refuse it.
After she finished speaking, Alice sketched a smile to Jorge, -Grandpa, you have to let me know in advance when you come next time, so I can prepare a gift for you. Otherwise, I received your red envelope. But I didn’t prepare one for you, which is too embarrassing.
Her smile was very shy and her white face was red with red cheeks.
The butler was speechless.
Jorge did not know what to say.
Everyone present was stunned.
Was this girl so stupid?
Did she not understand that the gentleman gave her a check to leave Kennedy? Did she really think Jorge was here to give her a red first-meeting envelope? Why was she such a fool?
What was she thinking?
Jorge almost fainted at her words, touching his chest, pointing at Alice,
-You! You!
