This time, Alvina had to return to the Miller Family to accompany her grandfather and a large family of people to spend the New Year's Eve. Actually, she only wanted to accompany her grandfather for a few years, but the Miller Family was a huge clan. All people get together, but it's also hot and noisy, but it belongs to others, Alvina is particularly lonely.
Her mother did not come over. She sat by her grandfather's side alone. Both of her uncles had families, and they had children. Even when they whispered to each other, they were still very amiable and warm.
"Sister, come over here and take a picture." Alvina had two cousins who were almost twenty years old. When they were in university, they were young and beautiful. When they saw Alvina sitting alone beside the old man, they immediately took their phone over and wanted to take a picture with her.
"Cousin, you have a small face. Take my phone, we'll stand behind you!" The two cousins stuffed the phones in her hands and stood behind her, showing cute, innocent expressions.
In truth, Alvina did not want to bother with them, but in front of the Old Master Miller, she could not be too cold. In case grandpa feels that she is out of group in this family, it will hurt her grandpa's heart.
So, Alvina decided to cooperate with everything he had and stuck out his tongue. Alvina stood at the very front with a forced smile on his face, unlike his two cousins who stood behind her, who were weird and cute with their eyes open and their tongues hanging out.
"Cousin. Grandfather said he wanted you to get engaged to the Grant family. What was the reaction of that Vice—President? " Uncle's daughter Victoria casually asked her.
Third Uncle's daughter, Amy, suddenly laughed. It was as if she felt that this was a joke and couldn't help but make people laugh.
Alvina knew that his two younger cousins were going to meddle with her business, and after seeing her troubled look, it was obvious that they didn't truly want to care about her.
"I haven't seen him much, he's too busy." Alvina replied indifferently, without a trace of sadness or joy.
"Grandfather, did you sell your cousin out? The other male side doesn't even like her, yet you still insist on sending her to the Grant family? " Victoria immediately turned around and shook Old Master Miller's arm.
At this time, Miller Family's Second Uncle Nathan scolded his lightly, "Victoria, what are you saying? Grandfather's decision has always been the wisest. You are not to speak carelessly about it, and just come back and sit! "
When Victoria heard that her father was angry, she immediately ran back to her seat and sat down.
Third Uncle Paul also signaled his daughter with his eyes, and Amy obediently returned to her seat.
Alvina sat in her seat, her expression was indifferent as she lowered her head to eat his soup.
Old Master Miller drank a bit of wine, but he was still clear—headed. He slapped the table, and said in a dignified tone: "I have decided to stop talking about Alvina and the Grant family's marriage. Also, don't let me hear you saying that I am selling off your granddaughter, don't talk about how poor our Miller Family is."
"Dad, Victoria is still young and doesn't understand. Don't take her words to heart!" Nathan apologized for his daughter's blabbering up, then laughed at Alvina: "Alvina, your sister is a straightforward person, don't worry about what you think, you are definitely worthy of Joseph, our Miller Family is not inferior to her Grant family."
"Yes, yes, yes, brother is right. You are the only daughter of our big brother. If you suffer any grievances after marrying into our family, you must tell uncle that uncle will uphold justice for you." Third Uncle Paul quickly offered his consolation.
Alvina was sad in his heart, but her face is indifferent. She smiles and says :"Thank you for your concern, uncles. I am willing to accept grandfather's marriage, marriage alliance, strong alliance, it will definitely benefit our Miller Family, I do not care about what kind of person Joseph is, as long as he is outstanding enough, I am just a shallow person who likes to see whether he is handsome or not, and whether he has status or not, as long as these conditions are met, I will choose no other."
