Chapter 93 I want to prove myself
Julian pulled out a seat for Niki and then sat down himself.
He just sat there alone and silent, but gave off a very powerful aura, with his eyes full of endless indifference.
Compared to the cowardice of Niki next to him at the moment, it seemed out of place.
The more Grandpa Graham looked at them, the more annoyed he became.
He was thinking about how to give Julian a piece of his mind after the party.
Julian had promised not to divorce Natalie, but he still brought Niki here today. It would only make the situation worse, and make trouble for Grandpa Graham.
Grandpa Graham turned his head and served Natalie a dish, “Eat more. The cook hired by our family today is very skilled in cooking. Please try it. I’m sure you’ll like it.”
Natalie nodded and thanked, “Thank you, Grandpa.” She picked up the fork and put the food in her mouth, and before she finished chewing the food in her mouth, Grandpa Graham took another dish and put it in front
of her. NôvelDrama.Org content.
After several rounds of this, everyone near the table looked at Natalie.
Only Linda’s eyes were filled with relief. Both Julian and Niki had complex expressions, and Niki’s look was
even worse.
“Thank you, Grandpa. I can do it myself.” Natalie felt a bit embarrassed and waved her hand sightly to politely declined Grandpa’s offer of help.
Actually, Grandpa Graham was neither good nor bad towards her.
When Natalie had just married into the Graham family, Grandpa Graham’s attitude towards her was also cold. As she steadfastly accompanied the Graham family through that difficult period, Grandpa Graham’s attitude toward her turned to gentleness.
But there was only gentleness.
In the three years since marrying into the Graham family, Grandpa Graham had never treated Natalie like this before, but today he smiled at her more than he had in all three years combined.
Natalie clearly knew in her mind what the purpose of his behavior was. The reason Grandpa Graham frequently served her dish was to show his attitude in front of everyone in the Graham family.
–The attitude that he disliked Niki.
Of course, Niki also knew it.
But her personality did not allow her to wait for her doom.
Nikl suddenly tugged at Julian’s clothes and said frailly, Julian, I’m sorry. It’s all my fault, I shouldn’t come
Julian frowned and said, “Don’t worry.”
“I took you here. There was no wrong with you. Just sit here with peace of mind. No one can drive you away.” Julian took all the responsibility on himself.
“But Grandpa Graham doesn’t like me.” Niki’s voice grew louder, and everyone at the table could hear her
clearly.
Natalie raised her eyebrows when she heard Niki’s words. She had had so many unpleasant experiences with Niki that she almost immediately understood that Niki was about to start something.
Grandpa Graham naturally responded to Niki’s sad words after hearing them. He snorted coldly and said, “Our family doesn’t welcome you. You better get out of here now.”
“Grandpa, do you have to do this? Isn’t it okay for us to finish this meal quietly?” Almost immediately, Julian spoke up for Niki with a cold voice.
Natalie raised her eyebrows again, It was Niki who first started to stir things up, which turned out to be Grandpa Graham’s problem.
Natalie couldn’t help but sigh in her heart. She wondered if Niki had saved Julian’s life, or why else would he be so protective of her.
“Julian, please don’t argue with Grandpa over me,” Then Niki looked at Grandpa Graham and said in a serious tone. “Grandpa Graham, Could you tell me why you dislike me?”
“Why? There’s no why.” Before Grandpa Graham answered, Linda took the lead in answering.
“Is it because Natalie has helped your family so much in the three years since she married Julian? I can do that too.” There were both grievances and stubbornness in Niki’s eyes.
It gave people a sense of fortitude.
“Really? What can you do?” Linda said, “With your mouth that’s only good at hooking up guys?”
Linda’s tone was no longer polite.
Upon hearing this, Niki felt angry, but she told herself to be patient and that she needed to put up with Linda before she got the authorization in front of the Graham family.
Niki suppressed her anger and wore a mask-like expression on her face.
“Auntie, I’m so sorry.” Niki’s eyebrows tinged with sadness and felt very aggrieved. “I want to make up for everything I have missed in these years.”
“I know you hate me. You hate me for leaving the Graham family behind when it was most difficult. You even think I’m with Julian for the money and I’ve come back for him because the Grahams are thriving again.”
Natalie raised her eyebrows and sneered in her mind. ‘She is pretty clear about herself.”
‘She has been laying the groundwork for so long. Why hasn’t she started introducing the main topic yet?’
Natalie put down her fork and played with the goblet, feeling a bit impatient.
“But at that time my mother was sick, I had to go abroad and leave the Graham family.” Niki cleared her throat and continued, “I’m not with Julian for money.”
“I don’t want to hide it from you either. I’m from the Spears family in New York, and I’m not short of money.”
Natalie was shocked when she heard this sentence. If Niki belongs to the Spears family, it would be a shame
To them!
After hearing the words “the Spears family in New York”, Grandpa Graham’s look finally changed.
“It was only after my mother passed away that I came back. During my three years abroad, I had a very difficult time, living a very difficult life.” Niki seemed unwilling to recall, and her expression was a bit painful. “Sorry, I didn’t want to talk about these painful memories, which would save some people from feeling that I am eliciting sympathy from others.”
At the same time, she looked faintly at Natalie.
Natalie blinked and immediately realized that Niki was alluding to and provoking her even though she remained silent the whole time.
So she took the opportunity to speak up and said, “You said you don’t want to talk about it, afraid that others might think that you are eliciting sympathy from others. So why do you still say so much.”
“Don’t say such useless words. Just tell us what you want to say directly.” Natalie held her cheek with one hand and looked like she was watching a good show.
Niki gave Natalie a stern look and said, “I want to prove myself today.”
“I will help the Graham family obtain the authorization of the New Bleomycin Drug from Glory Group.”
Upon hearing this, Grandpa Graham couldn’t help but burst out laughing and his voice was clear, “Help us obtain the authorization of the New Bleomycin Drug from Glory Group?”
He felt that what Niki had just said was like a joke.
Even Julian didn’t believe this. He furrowed his brow and couldn’t help but speak, “Niki, this is not something you can do. Don’t talk big.”
“I can do it, “said Niki with a firm tone.
“I can call Mr. Johnson of Glory Group now and ask him to send the authorization to the Graham family.”
“You know Mr. Johnson, CEO of Glory Group?” Grandpa Graham changed his face.
“I’m from the Spears family. Although my mother has passed away, her previous connections have always been there. It’s not surprising for me to know Mr. Johnson.”
“I not only know Mr. Johnson but also has a very good relationship with him, so I can get the authorization very easily,” emphasized Niki.
Grandpa Graham was shocked and said, “Really?”
If Niki had such a close relationship with Mr. Johnson and could easily obtain the authorization, it would have saved the Graham family.
