Grady did not seem to care when he felt Damien’s cold treatment.
“By the way, where’s Lolita?” he said, smiling and he looked around.
Damien glanced at Grady and said coldly, “She has just recovered from her illness; her body is still weak and she’s resting. As such, she won’t be seeing anyone now.”
Grady felt a little embarrassed when he heard that. He calmed down and smiled as he said, “Well, it’s good to take a rest. In fact, the reason I’m here this time, besides visiting Lolita, is for another important thing.”
"Speak!" Damien did not want to waste time speaking.
Grady took a step forward and tried to impress him. "Old Master, I would like to discuss with you about my engagement with Lolita."
Darryl, who was beside them, was stunned. He looked at Grady seriously. ‘He’s engaged to Lolita? This man is obviously useless and it would ruin the rest of Lolita’s life if she married him.’
At the same time, Damien’s expression changed in an instant as his eyes filled with anger. “Grady, how dare you mention the engagement to me? When Lolita was ill a year ago, I never saw you visit. You even sent someone to call off the marriage. Now that she’s recovered, you’re here to talk about the engagement again. Don’t you think that’s ridiculous?”
He wanted to chase Grady out immediately. However, he considered Grady’s identity and held back.
Grady scratched his head and smiled pretentiously. “Old Master, I was deceived by others. I was young and ignorant. Please forgive me for the sake of our family relationship. Besides, Lolita and I grew up together and I’ll love her forever once she becomes my wife.”
Then, he clapped his hands at the people waiting outside the door. Two of his followers walked in immediately, holding two boxes in their hands. Everyone was stunned when they opened the box.
The two boxes were filled with jewels, shining brightly. Everyone almost could not open their eyes. There were also pearls the size of fists, precious gems that were as pure as blood and exquisite pure gold ornaments. Each of these items were extremely expensive.
