You Are Mine (English)

Chapter 114: Chapter 114: The Truth

Edie’s heart started to beat fast. They initially got married to cope with the Yates family, and he certainly did not tell this to his family. "My mother knows that I got married to Edie. She is very supportive and likes Edie."

"I have lived for almost a century, and I have some ability to see through people. You look like you are definitely not an ordinary man. How can you fall in love with our stupid little girl?" The Old Greg said.

He stared at Stuart’s eyes and did not let go of the expression on his face. He was trying to see if Stuart would slip and say something. While Edie listened to them speak, she pouted and said unhappily, "Grandpa, what are you talking about, I am not bad too..."

"Shut up, am I asking you? Who told you to interrupt? I will ask this man first and then deal with you. Do you think you can run away?" The Old Greg was not angry, but he was scared.

He stares at Edie, and she was so scared that she didn’t dare talk again. She closed her mouth, but she was still whispering as if she was not willing to be degraded by the Old Greg. Edie did not dare to get angry with the old man, so she stared at Stuart sadly.

What? Everyone thought that she could not be Stuart’s wife judging from her appearance. Stuart was very wealthy and powerful. At least she was an average woman, and Stuart had a psychological block, but no one outside knew about it.

Stuart saw her face flush with redness, and the creamy cute nose also showed some sweat on it. Her eyes were bright and radiant because of the ups and downs of the emotions, which flashed a different kind of passion.

The Old Greg looked like a silly old man, but he could not see into his eyes. He was touched slightly, and he suddenly said to Edie, "Edie, I am a little hungry, would you go and ask the butler to get me some food."

The Old Greg wanted her to go away, and he wished to talk to Stuart alone. Although the old man was in ill health, he was always smiling. Some might say he was a sweet old man, but sometimes he was very savvy. Most of his family’s foundations were made when the Old Greg was young. Of course, such a person would not be an ordinary man.

Grandpa’s attitude is a bit strange, and he was always suspicious of everyone. She didn’t know what they were doing. Under Grandpa’s eyes, she didn’t know if their thing would be busted. Thinking of this, Edie looked at Stuart with worry and did not immediately follow the instructions of the Old Greg.

Stuart looked into her eyes and smiled back, making her worry ease a little. Edie sighed slightly and believed in the ability of Stuart. She responded and turned around. She left the study and closed the door.

When the Old Greg heard the sound of the door close, his face sank, and his kind smile disappeared. He became majestic and powerful. The Old Greg said in a deep voice, "Edie is stupid, but I am not stupid. I hope you can give me a reasonable explanation."

The Old Greg was also a person who had seen a lot. He wanted to teach Stuart a lesson. The pressure on him was incredible. Apparently, he was younger than him with a few generations.

Facing such an imposing manner, Stuart did not evade the eyes of the Old Greg. He was born with arrogance, but he was deliberately converging it a lot. He was not an arrogant man and will not appear to be inferior.

Stuart calmly said, "I will tell you everything grandpa that you want to know."

"Although you don’t want to tell me the details of your family, I can see from your temperament that you are definitely not an ordinary man. The average family can’t raise such a good child. You are braver than I was when I was younger. There are standards, high-class aristocratic interests. I guess your family may be even richer than mine. With your identity and conditions, you could have whatever celebrity you wanted. Why did you fall in love with our Edie?"

"Edie is a special girl, and she deserves to be cherished. I am the most suitable man for her."

"Don’t talk to me like this. I want to hear the truth! Although Edie is legally a foster child of the family, I know very well that she is my granddaughter. I watched her grow up. No one knew her better than me. Edie was not stupid, but she is not smart either. She was too pure, and she did not learn a little bit about the wealthy man’s trick and mind. Because of this, the family will not tolerate her." The Old Greg’s eyes flashed through the pain while speaking of her.

"I am old. There were times when I was negligent, and I didn’t protect Edie so well. So, she was driven out by the rest of my family. I also thought that she was too simple. It was a good thing for her to go out and experience the world. I did try to find her, but there was no sense because no one here would accept her. But now she is married to you and to me, it seems a little confusing. Why would she want to cover it up? Boy, you tell me. If you were me, what would you think?" freeweɓnovel.cѳm

The eyes of the old man have gradually become yellow and turbid after many years, but it did not affect the sharpness of his eyes. The experience of life had given the old man a unique majesty, which belonged to the elderly.

Stuart heard the sincere words of Old Greg, and he nodded in recognition. Since he was getting along with Edie, he has also seen this woman almost every day. She has cleverness, but she is trying to protect herself with it. frёeweɓηovel.coɱ

In essence, she is a straightforward and kind woman, and life is forcing her to grow. She has a quiet and peaceful temperament, like a warm harbor, so that wandering travelers can’t help but rest. Marrying her, even though it was only a contract, is indeed the best thing he has ever done.

He decided to take this relationship seriously and spend the rest of his life with her. He thought about it for a long time. Whether in the business or in life, he was not a person who likes to hesitate. His brain thinks fast, and he can always calculate the gains and losses quickly. Choose the best solution and execute it vigorously.

But their feelings were different. There was no optimal plan in the relationship. The person who surrendered his heart first had already lost. He is not a person who will readily admit being defeated. Since he has already made a decision, he will not let go of it quickly.
