He dialed his assistant in front of his father and called off the acquisition plan for the Irvin family.
Andre stood up and said, "Don't think I would be nice to her. She doesn’t deserve it."
After saying this, Andre left his father's study. As soon as he stepped out, he saw a woman leaning against the wall waiting. Mia was also looking at him, her eyes filled with resilience and endurance.
He glanced at her and walked away.
Mia stepped into the study, "Grandpa Hansen, you once said, as long as I marry into this family..."
Hansen didn't let Mia finish, he said coldly, "Don’t bring up this matter at home anymore. The issue with the Irvin family has been resolved, Andre won't do such a thing again."
As he was about to leave, Mia blocked his way, "A verbal promise is not enough. I need a written guarantee."
At these words, the butler was stunned. Was she doubting the old man's words?
No one liked to be questioned, especially not a man like Hansen. A young woman demanding a written guarantee, his face darkened. The butler quickly intervened, knowing the old man's temper was not good, fearing he would lash out at his new daughter-in-law and drove her away.
"Ms. Mia, the old man always keeps his promises. You'll understand in time. He said he will protect the Irvin family, and he won't do anything to harm them. We are like family, there's no need to bring a written guarantee up again."
The butler finished and signaled Mia with his eyes not to speak anymore. Mia took the butler’s advice and kept quiet.
Hansen stormed out of the study. Back in his bedroom, he grumbled angrily, "If it wasn't for the necessity, why on earth would the Cedillo family want such a daughter-in-law."
