Chapter 336

Charles was just about to explode when Grace firmly stopped him with a glare. She turned to Adrian, shaking her head a little. "You silly boy, it's not like we're against you marrying that Grant girl. Why're you rushing like this? If you show up alone, what do you think the Grants will think of her? Having your father go with you—it's a sign. It shows our family respects her, backs her. Got it?" Adrian lifted his dark, unreadable eyes to his mother, watching her without saying a word. He wasn't surprised she already knew Alyssa's name. After what he'd said earlier, it made perfect sense she'd ask Debbie about it. If Grace didn't know Alyssa's name, now that would be weird. He pressed his lips together, staying quiet. Grace sighed and softened her tone. "Debbie told me that Miss Grant's not exactly in a great spot with her family. The Grants don't care much about her, right? Just want to marry her off to help their business. That true?" Adrian frowned slightly, looking clearly annoyed.
