Alvina was thinking about how to be selfish, but at the same time, she started to worry about Joseph Grant. She heard that the political situation was getting worse and worse, and when she was watching the news in the morning, she saw a political commentator talking about the current situation. Although everything depended on their analysis and was not the truth, in her heart, Alvina Miller listened to this as if she was drumming, unable to calm down.
Under the television cameras, Joseph Grant would always appear in various strict meetings. His expression was serious and calm, his gaze cold and deep, making people unable to tell what kind of man he was.
If she had not truly interacted with Joseph Grant before, Alvina Miller would definitely have been deceived by his cold demeanor. She felt that he was just like the surface, clear and cold, the way he did things, the way he spoke, and the way he gave courtesy, but it seemed to lack a bit of sincerity and humanity.
He sat at the conference table, giving off a distant feeling like a star hanging in the sky. Even if one saw him in reality, he was still a man that could not be approached, and could only be viewed from a distance but not played with.
"Joseph Grant!" Alvina Miller exhaled lightly, and wrote down his name beside her.
Seeing the two people's names linked together, the corners of Alvina Miller's mouth slightly raised upwards, this way he wouldn’t feel lonely.
Alvina Miller propped up her chin, waiting for Joseph Grant's call. Because he said that he would try his best to go home to accompany her, when he went out in the morning. At night, they would even go back to Miller Family to eat together.
She would be happy just thinking about it, but also warm and romantic. This should count as a date between a man and a woman.
right?
It was a wonderful feeling to be able to make an appointment with someone for the rest of one's life.
Just as Alvina Miller was lost in thoughts, her phone rang.
She rushed over and picked up the phone. It was an unfamiliar number. She was stunned.
But she still answered.
"Alvina, it's me!" Joseph Grant's voice sounded out.
"Is this your new number?" Alvina Miller asked curiously.
"No, this is one of my reserve numbers. I don't want anyone to find out." Joseph Grant replied with a low laugh.
"Oh, why do you call me at this number? Will you be back early in the afternoon? " Alvina Miller asked with a face full of anticipation.
"Alvina, I have received the latest information. Old President may have taken action against me, so I will probably ignore you for a period of time!" Joseph Grant's voice suddenly became heavy, obviously, he was also extremely angry at this.
"Are you in danger?" Alvina Miller was so shocked that her fingers were holding onto her phone trembled, and her voice became worried.
"Don't worry about me, I'm on guard. I'm just afraid that you'll be dragged into this, so, we won't meet again for the next few days. Don't worry, this is only a temporary measure, I won't keep you waiting for too long." Joseph Grant was afraid that Alvina Miller would let his imagination run wild, hence he started to nervously explain.
"I can wait you for a long time, but you should take care of yourself. Joseph Grant, don't underestimate me. Even though I am a woman, I am not a petty person, and you are a man. If you want to compete for your career, I will support you silently from behind. " Alvina Miller could know that he was worried that she would be angry, so she immediately gave him a carefree answer, reassuring him.
"I know that you are a very reasonable and good girl, and I know that you will understand me, but it is precisely because of this that I feel sorry for you. Alvina, I will let you stay in that house for a few days, and I will probably return to my mother's side for a few days. In this way, people can also detect that our relationship is not very good, naturally they will not do to you!" Joseph Grant had decided to do the same before, but he didn't know why he had been looking for an opportunity to meet her at the office, and then pounce on her when he returned home. Now, facing such a serious situation, he could only harden his heart and temporarily cut off their mutual thoughts.
"I know, I know you're thinking for me. Don't worry, I'll cooperate with you until the end, but you have to keep your word. You promised to marry me, so don't go back on your word!" When Alvina Miller finished speaking, her voice was getting softer and softer, to the point that it sounded like she was about to cry.
When Joseph Grant heard her crying, his heart suddenly tightened and waves of dull pain hit him.
What he was most afraid of was her tears. This feeling made him feel uncomfortable.
"I won't go back on my word. I will do everything I promised you. Can you stop crying?" At this moment, other than comforting her, there was nothing else that Joseph Grant could think of.
