“I know you are busy at work. I’ll ask Roddy to bring some coffee to your company, Geoffrey said with a smile, squinting.
After a pause, he added, “Young people like to drink coffee for refreshment. you, the coffee you drink is not as good as mine.”
“Well, I can’t sleep after drinking coffee!” Melanie refused again.
I tell
“This is not good,” Geoffrey said, raising his voice exaggeratedly. “Let Roddy take you to see a doctor later. Our family has a very good private doctor!”
“No worries, Mr. Lambert, I will be fine if I don’t drink coffee!” Melanie quickly explained. She didn’t want Roderick to come to his company with a load of coffee.
“I think you like drinking coffee. Roddy can chat with you if you have trouble sleeping after drinking it!”
Geoffrey didn’t think it was a big deal!
Melanie felt so embarrassed that she wanted to hide her face under the table.
She was afraid that if Geoffrey kept talking to her, she might be compelled to become his future granddaughter–in–law!
Thinking of this, Melanie had a headache again.
“Mr. Lambert, I can’t lie to you again. I won’t marry Roderick.”
“Melanie, don’t be so sure!” Geoffrey disagreed.
“Roderick and you are meant to be together. You’re a perfect match! Everything is possible!” Geoffrey said.
Before Melanie could retort, Geoffrey continued, “Anyway, I have already regarded you as my future granddaughter–in–law!”
“Mr. Lambert,” Melanie called helplessly.
There was nothing she could do about him.
Then Geoffrey began to ask her about Ethan and Elias‘ childhood.
She couldn’t have the heart to refuse, so she told him some things about the children.
In the end, she also sent some photos of Ethan and Elias to Geoffrey’s phone at his
request.
When they finished speaking, Melanie suddenly found that Elias and Ethan were
gone.
She hurriedly stood up and tried to leave with the excuse of looking for her kids.
Unexpectedly, Geoffrey stopped her.
“Melanie, please take a look to see if there’s anything you like. You can take whatever you like!” Geoffrey said, pointing to all kinds of precious items in the
room.
“No, thanks.” Melanie waved her hand repeatedly. “I don’t have time to appreciate.
them.”
“I see. These items do not suit you.”
Geoffrey glanced at Kevin, who was standing aside.
“Go fetch the necklace I’ve prepared for Melanie!” he demanded.
“Yes, Mr. Lambert!” Kevin took the order and left.
When he heard Geoffrey wanted to give her a necklace, Melanie ignored the manners and said, “Mr. Lambert, would you mind if I used your restroom?”
After that, she ran away in a hurry. NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.
She didn’t want to take anything from Geoffrey.
She wasn’t prepared to accept a gift again. She was too careless the last time to accept the brooch.
She couldn’t accept his gift again. again this time. Anyway, she couldn’t repay his kindness.
She quickly left Geoffrey’s yard and walked to the courtyard where Elias lived.
Kevin, who went to fetch the necklace, didn’t know that Melanie had gone..
When he returned, he saw Geoffrey sitting alone in the greenhouse.
“Mr. Lambert?” he called.
“She’s gone. What’s the use of fetching it?” Geoffrey sighed.
“You can give it to her next time! I’ll put it away!” Kevin said.
“No need. She won’t come again! I’ll hand it over to Roddy later and ask him to deliver it to her,” Geoffrey said.
“Got it!” Kevin replied.
“I didn’t expect someone to refuse my gift,” Geoffrey blustered, but his eyes were full of loneliness.
“I think Ms. Robertson is different from other people. Mr. Lambert, you don’t have to worry about it. She has three sons with your grandsons. Sooner or later, she will marry into your family,” Kevin smirked.
Hearing this, Geoffrey immediately was in a better mood.
“Have you confirmed it?” he asked.
Kevin nodded and replied, “Yes, I have.”
“Vince sent a message just now, confirming that Ms. Robertson has a triplet and the eldest one is called Edward. He’s with Stanley in Fruycia now!”
Hearing this, Geoffrey looked happy. “I didn’t expect what the fortune teller said.
was true.”
“Exactly,” Kevin replied.
