Billionaire’s Missing Darling

Chapter 714

Ian stayed with the Collins family for a few days. He wanted to take Kelly to the Phil family.

It was almost Joshua’s birthday banquet. Ian still had a lot of feelings for his grandfather, so he wanted to bring Kelly over to let him take a look at

her.

Kelly was a little nervous. She tugged at Ian’s sleeve. “Will Grandpa like me?”

Ian hesitated for a moment. He was naturally cold and was not interested in others, but he was exceptionally sensitive to the people he cared about.

Although Joshua did not say it explicitly, Ian knew that his grandfather did not like Kelly.

To be precise, he didn’t like women who could affect his mood.

Ian did not want to lie to Kelly, but he did not want Kelly to have a grudge against his grandfather either.

He thought for a moment and said, “Grandpa hasn’t seen you yet, so I’m not sure if he likes you or not. However, there’s a way to make him like you a little more.”

“Tell me,” Kelly urged.

Her current mentality was different from before. In the past, she was not sad about Ian as she had always felt that she would be separated from him

soon.

But now that she had decided to be with him, she had to accept everything about him.

She hoped that his family would like her, just as she hoped that Olivia would like Ian.

Ian hugged Kelly and sat down. He said in a serious tone, “Grandpa has been the head of the family for decades. He has a strong personality and is quite stubborn. He probably doesn’t like the fact that I always listen to

Kelly was stunned, but she quickly understood where he was coming from.

She often heard people say that mothers-in-law disliked their daughters- in-law as they felt that their daughters-in-law had snatched their son away.

Although Joshua was not her mother-in-law, he had the same level of possessiveness. He was probably afraid that she would snatch his grandson

away.

Kelly nodded, indicating that she understood. She even suggested, “Then don’t be so close to me when we go to the Phil family. Control yourself.”

Ian thought, ‘Why is Kelly so impressive? She’d thought of it herself before I even brought it up.’

Ian’s heart went soft. It was about to melt.

He rested his chin on Kelly’s shoulder. His heart ached. “It’s going to be hard on you, Kelly. Grandpa is old and his thoughts are a little strange.”

Kelly chuckled in her heart.

Kelly was doing this not only for Ian but also for Olivia. She hoped that Ian would suffer for her when he met Olivia in the future.

She had to show that she was willing to suffer for Ian if she expected that behavior from him in the future.

Kelly was quite smart.

It was just that her previous living environment was too simple. She was also too lazy to go through all the effort.

No one could stop her if she really wanted to do something.

Kelly told Dylan that she was going to the Phil family after delightfully making her plans.

“Of course, of course.” Dylan nodded repeatedly. “Joshua’s birthday banquet is in a few days. As juniors, you should go early.”

“Oh right.” Dylan thought of something. “Have you prepared a gift? You’re newly married to Ian, so you have to be polite.”

Kelly was stunned by the question. She had not really thought about bringing a gift, but Ian should have prepared the gift for her.

Hence, she said, “I just found out about this and didn’t make any preparations. Ian should have prepared a gift long ago.”

“How can that do?” Dylan shot her a disapproving look. “You should prepare one too. How about this? I’ll prepare it for you.”

“No, no.” Kelly waved her hand. “I’ll do it myself. Don’t worry, Grandpa. I know what I’m doing.”

Dylan did not say anything when he saw how firm Kelly was.

After leaving Dylan’s side, Kelly was about to return to her room when Brenda, Penelope, and the others caught up to her.

Millie had an exaggerated expression. “Are you going to visit Mr. Joshua? He’s the head of the Phil family and one of the most powerful people in the country. He’s a big shot that you can only see on the news. Are you afraid?”

Millie had never seen Joshua in her life.

Penelope also said, “I heard that Mr. Joshua values the rules very mu might not like you since you married Mr. Walter secretly.”

Brenda looked at Kelly. There was deep disdain in her seemingly concerned tone. “I can help you if there’s anything you don’t understand. The Phil family is a big family with many rules. I’m afraid you’ll feel restrained the first time you visit.”

It was not that Brenda looked down on Kelly, but she really felt that a barbarian like Kelly would definitely go weak in the knees when she suddenly saw a big shot like Joshua.

Although Ian also had considerable status, he was still young and immersed in the feelings of a romantic relationship. On the other hand,

Joshua was a powerful and influential figure who had been in power for decades.

Brenda felt an indescribable sense of superiority before Kelly.

She had seen Joshua before. She had performed for him when she was young and even put a garland on him.

Moreover, she was in charge of the family business and was

knowledgeable. She was not someone Kelly, a wild girl who had never seen the world, could compare to.

Kelly turned around and looked at the three of them in confusion.

She was not afraid of Joshua. She was just worried that Joshua did not like her.

However, that was just the nervousness a junior had toward an elder.

It was different from what the three women had said.

The three of them made it sound so scary.

Kelly did not understand. She thought, ‘Could it be that Joshua is more terrifying than Augus and Mr. Book? I doubt it.’

Kelly, who had seen countless big shots, was really not afraid.
