Amanda Addison's pretty face changed, and her expression became serious. Looking at her father, she frowned and said: "Father, do you betray my grandfather? When you married my mother, didn't you say that you would always be on the same team as my grandfather?"
"Who tell you that?" A hint of unease flashed across Gabriel Addison's face.
"My mom tells me!" Amanda Addison sat down on a chair to the side, and looked at her father. In her eyes, her father was in high spirits and was capable of anything before, but now, he had suddenly become old, and also old. She was sad about it.
Gabriel Addison was instantly angered and reprimanded her with a heavy tone: "Whatever your mother says is right. You and your brother just listen to your mother. Do I have the right of speech in our family?"
Amanda Addison signed: Of course not. Dad, I know you are not happy at all in this family, Mom is too powerful, and you have been the deputy mayor for so many years, so mom probably has too high expectations for you, your relationship has been growing cold over the past few years, I and my brother are very worried about you!"
"I shouldn't have ..." Gabriel Addison said something but he suddenly turned quiet.
How could he say that he didn't want to get married in front of his daughter?
Amanda Addison's beautiful face turned white, she angrily stood up: "Then you marry Belle Ann, and recognize your bastard!"
"Amanda!" Gabriel Addison was so frightened that his expression froze, he wanted to call out for his daughter, but Amanda Addison slammed the door hard.
Gabriel Addison sat on the chair in defeat, supporting himself with his hands, he looked dejected and lost.
Yes, if he had not coveted for glory and fame, then perhaps he would not live such a miserable and miserable life today. Belle Ann was a good woman, strong and independent, and also loyal to her friends. It should have been worth for him to cherish her. Unfortunately, it was too late to go back to the time when they knew each other and loved each other.
The noon sun was shining in the quiet garden. There was an elegant balcony with a few tables and chairs on it. The lazy afternoon always gave people a relaxed attitude.
At this moment, there were three incomparably elegant men sitting under the umbrella. They were having lunch together as they discussed countermeasures.
Today's gathering was initiated by Edwards. Next to him was the Vice-President, Joseph Grant, and opposite to him was the manager of William Group, Leo William.
Because William Group was suppressed before, and he was recommended by Edwards, Leo William officially stood with Joseph Grant's team, so, for the sake of their future development, the three of them were friendly and cherished.
"Gabriel Addison has been spying on the position of the mayor and has come to ask me for help. However, due to personal grudges, I really do not wish for him to be the mayor." Leo William picked up his coffee and took a sip. After the official business was finished, he mentioned about his private matters.
Edwards laughed lightly: "Gabriel Addison's talent is mediocre; he doesn't have the ability to sit in this position. Moreover, his father-in - law is also a representative of the presidential party, I believe that if Vice -President have the chance to choose someone, he would definitely not take Gabriel into consideration."
Joseph Grant nodded and said "I would not take the people who belongs to other party into consideration. Don't worry, Mr. William. As long as you are not willing to allow him to ascend to the position, I will do my best to deal with him! "
"Then I'll have to trouble Mr. Grant!" Leo William was revenging for his own woman. It was why he blocked Gabriel Addison's future. Gabriel's abandonment of that year caused Belle Ann and her daughter to be ridiculed in every way possible and made his beloved woman feel inferior and frightened since she was a child. It was just the personal resentment. Let alone hinder his career, even if it took half his life, Leo William would not hesitate to do so.
The atmosphere during the lunch was very good. After it ended, because Joseph Grant was busy with work, he left first, Edwards and Leo William chatted casually.
The reason why Joseph Grant left in such a hurry was not because he needed to rush back to take care of his official affairs, but because of a person.
It was the first day that Alvina Miller worked. Joseph Grant didn't know how she was adapting to the situation, but for some reason, he started to worry about her.
