Chapter 316
Chapter 316
Tracey spent a whole day at the castle with the old master and didn't return to the company. At this old age, Old Master Xia would only hope to be surrounded by family members and not cared about the material too much.
Seeing her grandpa's wrinkles stretched in smiles, Tracey’s heart was full of warmth. The old master was soon coming to 80th years old and the rest of his life had become limited.
Tracey didn't know how long she could stay with her grandpa. She could only cherish the days to give her grandpa company and filial piety.
"Let Adam come for dinner tonight. I like him very much. By the way, how is he doing to you?" The old master asked Tracey.
"Don't worry, grandpa. He treats me very good, really." When Tracey talked about Adam, a blush dyed her face.
This would only happen to the people in love. Grandpa spotted it at a glance.
"I’m glad to hear it. I think Adam is more reliable than Sean, although his identity was not so excellent..."
Before the old man could finish his words, Tracey interrupted him. "Grandpa, what are you talking about? Nobody can choose his own background. Otherwise, who wants to be an illegitimate child?" "Silly girl, I haven't said too much yet, why you were so anxious to defend for him? Don't worry. If I mind his identity, I won't allow you to go together with him at the beginning.
I'm not as old-fashioned as Old Master Sheng. As long as Adam treats you well, whether he was born noble or humble, it doesn't matter."
Although the Xia family is not one of the best, we have been rich enough and won’t consolidate family power by forcing the younger generation to accept the alliance marriage."
After hearing grandpa’ s sincere words, Tracey relaxed a lot. "Sorry, I misunderstood you. I'll call him and let him come."
"Go." The old man waved his hand.
Tracey called Adam with a great mood. He should be in a cafe or a restaurant at this time.
The melodious background music sounded. Adam's magnetic voice came. "Hello."
Before Tracey could answer, she heard a noisy male voice first, "Who is calling? Are you my sister- inlaw?"
"Elliott, get out. If you grab my phone again, I'll beat you." Adam scolded, and it made Tracey burst into laughter.
She suddenly remembered that he said he was going to the airport to pick up a cousin. It must be this Elliott.
"My sister-in-law, you should control Adam. He has a tendency for violence! Why don’t we report him to women’s federation?" Elliott successfully got the phone and ignored Adam’s threat.
Hearing the cheerful voice coming from the inside, Tracey just said "Okay", and Adam soon grabbed his phone back.
“Umm, Tracey, what's up? It’s my stupid cousin who spoke just now." Adam made fun of Elliott mercilessly.
"Hey, make it clear, who is stupid? Otherwise, I will tell my sister-in-law that you peeked at the beauty at the airport!" Elliott deliberately raised his voice.
What a pair of funny brothers. Tracey waited Elliott' s voice stopped and said, "Brother Adam, I’m at the castle. Grandpa asked you to come over for dinner, do you have time?"
"I’m good, but I’m with a troublemaker."
"A troublemaker? How can you use this word to describe handsome and cute me??" Elliott snorted by the side.
The way they got along with each other was really interesting. During the whole time when Tracey made this phone call, the teasing never stopped.
"No problem. Grandpa likes it to be lively. Let him come with you. It's just a matter of adding a set of tableware." Tracey smiled to say.
"I'm afraid it’s not one set but ten sets!" Adam said fiercely.
"Hum, my sister-in-law, don't worry, we will come on time. By the way, I will tell you how bastard my cousin is." Elliott hung up the phone.
Tracey laughed. "What a funny boy."
It represented that Adam had quite a good relationship with this cousin. Elliott was surnamed Xiao, and Adam had always been hostile to the people of the Sheng family. Maybe that was the reason why Adam took Xiao as his surname but not Sheng.
Since Adam loved Elliott, then this funny cousin would be Tracey's important guest. She specially asked the cook to make some western food as Elliott had just come from the U.S. and Tracey worried he was not used to Chinese food.
Soon it was the afternoon, Adam arrived with Elliott as agreed. Tracey opened the door, a handsome and strange face appeared.
"Hello, my sister-in-law, I'm Elliott. You can call me Elly or Elli or...Why do you look..."
As soon as Elliott saw Tracey’s face, he reminded of the mysterious woman on the plane right away. Tracey was seventy percent similar to that woman, especially her eyes.
Seeing that Elliott was going to expose something, Adam pinched his waist hard. Elliott was almost hurt to jump.
"Well, Elli, what's wrong with you?" Tracey looked at Elliott with curiosity. She had heard Elliott's noise on the phone before, but she didn't expect that Elliott was far more than that.
Only at this moment did Elliott realize why Adam told him not to be surprised to see someone similar to that woman, and why Adam cared so much about the R family.
"Was that powerful woman Adam's mother-in-law?
This world was so small." Elliott thought.
"That's how he was. Forgive him." Adam explained.
"Elli, you must be tired after taking a long flight. Go take a shower in the guest room and have a rest. I'll let you know when dinner is ready."
Feeling that Elliot was important to Adam, Tracey naturally treated him in a thoughtful way.
"Wow, my sister-in-law, you are really an angel! I don't know what kind of luck my brother got to find such an angel like you." Elliott looked happy.
"Don't keep standing outside, come in!" Tracey made way for them to come in.
Then the butler came and took Elliott’s luggage, leading him to the guest room. Along the way, Elliott was amazed by the house's design and decoration and full of praise for everything he saw.
Later, he met the old master. "Grandpa, are you the old master? Why are you looking so young?" Elliott was still giving big praise. Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.
Old Master Xia was the person that Carmen feared the most, but Elliott apparently didn't feel any strange to him and directly rushed to him like a passionate puppy.
"You are Adam's cousin, right? Sure enough, both of you looked the same brilliant." The old master definitely liked honey-mouthed Elliott.
"Grandpa, you can call me Elly or Elli or...any name you like.”
"Good boy." The old master smiled.
Tracey was a little confused. "Why do you and your
cousin seem to come from different planets?"
"This boy is over energetic." Adam was also helpless.
