Archie’s figure disappeared from the doorway. On Minlan’s face, It was as if she had been slapped several times. It was red and hot. She was so angry that she punched the table and said angrily, “Archie is too arrogant. Marrying the daughter of Quinsley Family as his wife? Isn’t it obvious that he wants to slap the face of our Sandford Family? I really can’t swallow it.”
“Auntie, don’t be angry. I think Archie is clearly here to anger us. I’ve never seen him before, so I really like that Emma.” Moyan, who was standing at the side, quickly comforted Minlan. She looked like she was facing a common enemy.
“That’s right, aunty. Big sister will definitely snatch Archie from that little slut’s hands. You can rest assured.” Shinta also tried to persuade her.
Minlan grabbed Moyan’s hand and said with a sad expression, “Little Yan, Auntie knows that she has wronged you, but you must keep Archie in your heart. For the sake of Sandford Family, you must try your best to get close to him. Do you understand?”
“I know what Auntie is thinking. It was also very understandable that Uncle had been thinking about it all these years. When we are his biological daughter, we will definitely share his worries. But. . . Auntie, where did elder sister go? Will she suddenly come back?” Although Moyan had the intention to pursue Archie, But when she thought of Luisa, whose life and death was unknown, she felt uneasy. She was afraid that if one day she snatched Archie away, she would have to hand him over to Luisa. Wouldn’t that be courting death?
Minlan’s nerves twitched and the pain in her heart could not be stopped. She clutched her chest and said, “I also hope that she can come back, but where did she go? Why did she not give me any news over the past two years? This wretched girl. She’s so stubborn! I feel like she’s avoiding us on purpose.”
“Auntie, I’ll say this first. You want me to get close to Archie? What if I give him my virginity one day? You can’t ask me to let Big Sister come out when she comes back. This is very hurtful.” Moyan was not a fool. Since she had made up her mind to do this, Then she must have a guarantee.
Minlan was also a shrewd woman. Hearing her say this, In the current situation, she could not have any other thoughts.
“Little Yan, is Auntie that kind of person? Auntie only hopes that after you settle with Archie, you can help your auntie participate in the next presidential election. As long as you can do this, how can Auntie disturb your happiness?” Minlan was unwilling in her heart, but on her face, there was a kind and generous look.
Moyan was after all tender and could not guess the shrewd and ruthless thoughts. She could only laugh. “Auntie, don’t blame me for being overly considerate. It is also because I do not have a sense of security that I would say such outrageous words. You won’t blame me, right?”
“Of course not. All of you are good children of Sandford Family. Auntie naturally loves all of you. How can I blame you?” Minlan pretended to be gentle as she hugged her two nieces in her arms, putting on a touching scene of a family.
Emma waved the small tree branch in her hand and beat it up and down. She was extremely frustrated.
The liveliness in the front hall had nothing to do with her. She would rather find an opportunity to escape. It would be better if everyone was there in a while to see her make a fool of herself.
“Emma, what are you doing here?” Suddenly, a deep and magnetic male voice sounded.
Emma heard this voice and quickly hid the whip in her hand behind her back. She raised her beautiful eyes and saw Archie standing lazily in front of her and staring deeply at her.
“Nothing. . . Nothing!” Emma said and secretly used some strength to throw the tree branch to the side.
Archie could not help but laugh. His tall and domineering body walked towards her step by step. He stood in front of her and looked at her small face from top to bottom. He saw her face. The resentment had yet to dissipate, and his brows furrowed. “Who has offended you?”
Emma immediately turned around and pretended to be cold as she replied, “No one provoked me. I just wanted to come out and vent my anger.”
“Follow me in!” The large palm suddenly stretched out and interlocked with her five fingers. Before Emma could react, he had already lightly pulled her into his embrace.
“Archie, I beg you, let me leave this place. I don’t want to stay here for even a second.” Emma’s face was full of pleading.
Archie replied indifferently. “No, you must get used to this kind of occasion as soon as possible.”
“I don’t want to!” Emma’s stubborn temper rose. She stood where she was and did not want to move. “I can’t get used to it for the rest of my life.”
“Alright then. You take a good breath outside. I will go and talk to your grandfather about the current situation.” After Archie said that, he turned around and was about to leave.
When Emma heard this, her small face immediately turned pale with anger. She rushed over a few steps and grabbed his sleeve. “Hey, don’t mess around.”
“Do you want to go together?” Archie’s handsome and charming face was full of evil smiles.
Emma was really afraid of him. There was no room for resistance. She could only follow him into the banquet hall with a dark face.
As expected, Archie’s appearance attracted the attention of countless people. No matter if it was men or women, they were all glued to his eyes.
Gustav was chatting with a few old friends when he suddenly saw Archie. Without delay, he quickly walked towards him.
Emma saw her grandfather walking towards her. She quickly put away the dissatisfaction on her face and forced a smile.
“Young Master Grafton, Emma, are you guys resting on the second floor?” Gustav walked over with an honored smile and greeted them.
Archie said indifferently, “Emma doesn’t like lively occasions, so I accompany her to the back garden for a walk.”
When Gustav heard that, he immediately scolded, “Emma, you have to pay attention to your identity. Young Master Grafton definitely can’t be absent in this kind of occasion. You can’t let him accompany you out to enjoy the wind just because you are not used to it. As a wife, you have to know how to take care of your husband’s emotions and care about his identity.”
Emma knew that her grandfather treated Archie like a god and worshiped him. In his eyes, whatever Archie did was right.
“I know. I won’t do it again!” Emma could only lower her head and answer.
Only then did Gustav smile in satisfaction. After that, he thought of something big and his expression was a little nervous. “Emma, you told Young Master Grafton about tomorrow’s banquet?”
Archie’s serene eyes looked towards the woman in his arms. Emma was shocked and shook her head. “I didn’t have the time to mention it.”
“What is it?” Archie asked with a charming voice.
Gustav took the opportunity and smiled. “There will be a small celebration in Quinsley Family tomorrow. I hope Young Master Grafton will come and have a meal.”
Although he had married his granddaughter to Archie, Gustav did not dare to be so impudent as to treat Archie as his grandson-in-law. He still had to call him Young Master Grafton, not even mentioning his name.
When Emma heard her grandfather mention it, she quickly raised her eyes and looked at Archie with anticipation. She was really afraid that he would reject her.
“Why didn’t you tell me earlier so that I can prepare a gift for you?” Suddenly, a finger appeared on her fair little face. Archie doted on her face and drew a line on it. His thin lips curled up, carrying slight blame.
Emma was stunned, but Gustav’s old face was full of smiles.
