A trace of sadness flashed across Madame Sandford’s face, “Yes, it was me who ordered it. Unfortunately, fate played tricks on us. We lost our little granddaughter. If we didn’t lose her, we would have let the two of you develop well with our two granddaughters. Today, everyone would be happy.”
A light flashed in Yoseph’s eyes. He immediately said with a smile. “Grandma, it’s not too late to bring this up now.”
“It’s too late. Emma is with Archie.” Madame Sandford’s pained look was a little funny.
Yoseph casually said, “Grandma. Emma and Archie have already divorced. Emma has now returned to being single. My engagement with her is still valid.”
Madame Sandford looked at Yoseph in shock. She did not expect that he would take the initiative to propose a marriage contract.
“What do you mean? Do you not mind Emma having a marriage with Archie?” Madame Sandford was very surprised.
Yoseph’s eyes faintly swept across Archie’s ashen face and the corner of his mouth curled up. “Of course I don’t mind. The person I like is Emma. It has nothing to do with her past.”
“You. . . Like her?” Madame Sandford was shocked again.
Archie wanted to stop Yoseph from talking, but he obviously could not. He could only stiffen his face and see what he was going to say.
Minlan actually knew that Yoseph liked her younger daughter a long time ago. At this moment, when she heard it, she wasn’t surprised. She just secretly looked at Archie’s expression.
Sure enough, Archie’s face didn’t look good.
Yoseph instantly had an ashamed expression. “I’m sorry, grandma. I didn’t come all the way to the mansion to greet you. That’s why I’m giving you a big surprise.”
Madame Sandford was a little confused and her thoughts were in a mess. She waved her hands randomly, “Stop. What you meant just now was that you also like Emma?”
“Yes, grandma. I like her!” Yoseph did not care about Archie’s frozen face and admitted it very seriously.
“This. . . ” The old lady was shocked. Her turbid and sharp eyes looked at Yoseph and Archie, the two perfect young men. She did not know what to say for a moment.
That’s right. Both men had their own strengths. They were outstanding, young and promising. No matter which one they chose, it would be satisfying.
“Yoseph, Grandma is a guest from afar. Can you let her sit down and have a cup of tea first?” Archie suddenly said.
Only now did Yoseph realize that he had made things difficult for the old lady.
“Of course. Grandma, please sit down and have a cup of tea. We will talk about this later.”
“No. . . You guys. . .” The old lady’s mind was still unable to process it, and her expression was still that of shock.
Archie had already personally poured a cup of tea for her and also poured a cup for Minlan.
“Mom, have a cup of tea first. We will talk about this later. He was also anxious now. No matter what, Emma’s choice is the most important.” Minlan did not wish for the old lady to make any decision at this time.
After all, the Wolfleim Family and the Grafton Family could not afford to offend them now.
The old lady naturally knew that her choice wasn’t important. It was her granddaughter would choose as her future husband.
“You’re right. What would an old lady like me choose? If you want me to say, I want both of them. Both of them should be my grandson-in-law. I’m very satisfied with both of them.” The old lady said with a beaming smile.
Minlan was amused by her.
Archie could not help but curl his lips. Yoseph said optimistically, “Actually, I don’t mind having two male servants and one female servant. . .”
“Yoseph, can you shut up?” Archie immediately scolded him.
What two male servants and one female servant? Yoseph was willing but Archie still wouldn’t agree.
That little thing could only belong to him alone, he definitely wouldn’t share it with him.
The old lady was also extremely happy. She hurriedly waved her hand. “Hey, don’t joke around like this. What era is it? Two male servants and one female. My Emma’s fortune is really heavy. You young people, don’t act recklessly.”
“Mom, don’t worry. They were just joking with you.” Minlan quickly consoled her.
The old lady nodded. “Of course I know it was a joke. If it is true, I will not agree.”
Yoseph smiled bitterly. Not to mention the old lady and Archie did not agree to it, Emma must be the first one to jump out to oppose it.
At this moment, the banquet was bustling with noise and excitement. On the other side, Emma was preparing to ride a horse to experience the beauty of the grassland.
Of course, this was her first time riding a horse and her courage was small. She needed someone to lead her horse and walk slowly.
Beside her, Zack followed closely behind, maintaining a high level of vigilance.
Emma was used to paying attention to this white horse. That novelty made her cheer for a long time.
Maybe it was really exciting. She didn’t even think about Archie knowing about her in Country X.
When she was tired of playing, she found a restaurant and invited Zack to lunch.
As a bodyguard, Zack had a professional habit, so he didn’t dare to sit at the same table as his master.
However, Emma did not have the pride and arrogance of a rich girl. She did not put on any airs at all. After being persuaded by her, the two of them sat together for lunch.
“Zack, thank you. Order whatever you like. Don’t be polite with me!” Emma looked at her selfie and said to him with a smile.
“Miss Emma is too polite. This is my part of the matter.”
“Alright, Yoseph is not here. Don’t be polite with me!” Emma knew that Zack was trembling with fear because of Yoseph, so she dispelled this concern for him.
Zack had no choice but to be impolite and order two dishes that were not considered expensive.
Around two o’clock in the afternoon, Old Master Grafton’s birthday banquet was nearing its end. Guests left one after another. Of course, some special guests were arranged to stay, and there was an important dinner to attend at night.
Archie’s handsome face turned slightly red. He had drunk a lot of wine. Luisa had always wanted to stand beside him, but Archie’s warning look made her sit obediently beside her mother and grandmother.
“Luisa, you go and take care of Archie. I see that he is drunk.” Minlan suddenly said.
Luisa then turned her head and saw Archie’s handsome face was red. He was indeed drunk, so she stood up.
“Come back, sit down!” The old lady suddenly shouted in a low voice, “Don’t go!”
“Mom, let the young people choose their own emotional life. We just need to watch and don’t interfere.” Of course, Minlan hoped that Eldest Daughter could marry into the Grafton Family and that her younger daughter could marry into the Wolfleim Family. It was a win-win situation.
Luisa’s eyes reddened. She immediately felt aggrieved, “Grandmother, do you really have to be so biased? Am I not your biological granddaughter?”
The old lady looked at Luisa and immediately cried like a crying person. Her heart was also in a mess. When she thought about Yoseph saying that he liked Emma, she did not stop him in the end.
Minlan observed the old lady’s expression and pushed Luisa, “Quickly go.”
Archie was drunk. If Luisa went over to take care of him, she might be able to take care of his feelings. This was a rare opportunity.
Minlan would not let go of this opportunity.
The old lady turned her face to the side and felt a little helpless. She sighed at the cruelty of fate and her eyes also had some bitterness.
Minlan carefully comforted her. “Mom, don’t be sad. When it comes to relationships, let nature take its course.”
“How can I not be sad? If you don’t lose Emma, you won’t have these annoying things today. Maybe both of them will be able to do it.” The old lady wiped her tears as she got angry.
Minlan immediately kept silent.
Indeed, all of this happened because she lost her little daughter 21 years ago.
“Archie, you are drunk. I will send you upstairs to rest.” Luisa gently stood beside Archie and said softly.
Old Master Grafton immediately did him a favor. “Archie, let Luisa send you upstairs first. You drank a lot for grandpa just now.”
In front of his grandpa, Archie did not want to embarrass Luisa, so he could only stand up. “Grandpa, I will go up and rest first.”
Ferdie also said. “Go, you shouldn’t have drank so much just now.”
“I’m fine!” After Archie said that, he turned around and walked out of the hall. Luisa wanted to reach out to support him, but he dodged her without leaving a trace.
Actually, Archie kept drinking just now. It was only because he was in a bad mood that he accidentally drank so much.
However, he was not drunk. He just drank too much. The alcohol was so strong that it made his face turn red.
“Archie, don’t leave in such a hurry. Let me help you. Don’t fall down.” Luisa followed him to the elevator and reached out to help his arm.
“Don’t touch me!” Archie looked at her coldly.
Luisa’s hand suddenly froze in the air. She looked at Archie with deep sadness in her eyes.
“You can leave. I don’t need your concern!” Archie waved his hand coldly and said impatiently.
Luisa, however, stood still and did not leave. Her tears kept falling, and the more they fell, the fiercer it became. It was as if she had suffered a great deal of damage.
“Don’t you dare to be so despicable again. Weren’t you very proud of yourself in the past?” Archie looked at her indifferently and said with a frown.
Luisa still did not speak and continued to shed tears in grief.
“I advise you to quickly find a man who loves you. Don’t waste time on me. I only have Emma in my heart. Other than her, I will not take anyone else.” Archie’s words were ruthless, but also very hurtful.
“Emma? Huh, is she really that good? If there is no one like her in this world, will you be lonely for the rest of your life?” Luisa opened her mouth to speak but she was filled with hatred and gritted her teeth.
Archie suddenly stretched out his hand and grabbed her neck. His eyes were ruthless. His tone was cold. “What do you want? I’m warning you, don’t touch her”
Luisa’s face quickly turned pale. She did not struggle at all and only coldly laughed, “Archie, will you kill me for her? I have already said that I am going to die. You all can forget about having a good life in this life.”
