Chapter 1023
The old man was taken aback. He looked at him and said, "You already have a daughter? Well, whydidn't the two of you said something?"
Rowane said awkwardly, "Master Attwood, that child isn't..."
"Everyone, let's eat. You've been working tirelessly all day. Let's eat and go home and rest!" Evansaid, obviously stopping Rowane from saying something unnecessary.
Rowane's expression didn't improve. She stared blankly at Hendrix for a moment. The old manwanted to ask for more details, but Hendrix immediately changed the topic.novelbin
Just like that, everyone was calm during dinner. Once dinner was done, everyone left on their own.
When Naomi arrived, we were in front of the hotel, just about to Ziglar off.
She ran all the way and shouted from afar, "Grandpa!"
When Ziglar heard the sound, he looked up and saw his granddaughter. He happily touched hisbeard and said, "Why did you come here, little girl?"
Naomi held Ziglar's arm and said, "I'm here to visit some friends. Are you here to visit an oldfriend?"
The old man smiled as he looked at Hendrix and said, "There is no old friend here, this is MasterRoberts grandson, Hendrix Roberts. Get to know each other. This lady beside him is Rowane, hiswife. In the future, you can address them as brother Hendrix and sister-in-law."
Naomi was stunned and looked back at me. The corner of her mouth twitched. "Sister-in-law?"
I hid my smile and kept quiet.
She frowned as she looked at Hendrix and said in a strange tone, "Well, brother Hendrix is it? Butwhy does it seem like my sister- in- law is different?"
"Girl, what nonsense you speak. Don't be impolite!" Ziglar raised his hand and gave Naomi a lightslap on her arm.
Naomi was slightly baffled, but she wisely did not press it. After a short chat with the old man, adriver was then arranged to send the old man home.
Seeing that the old man had gone, she looked at Hendrix and Rowane and frowned. "When did thetrend of having the boss and the employee getting handsy started? This was even done in front ofan audience! Both of you are certainly brave."
After that, she looked back at me and said angrily, "You couldn't explain when my grandfathermisunderstood the situation?"
I smiled faintly, pulled her aside and said, "Well, let's stop worrying about this. Have you guys eatenanything yet?"
"Is there a car waiting at the side?"
She shook her head and said, "I'm coming to the hotel for dinner, aren't I?
I nodded and asked her to go into the hotel with the others for a meal.
After settling my work for the day, I went to look for Naomi. As we were heading to the grasslandtonight, everyone was beyond excited.
It was already eight o'clock in the evening. Everyone was worried that it would be too late to set upthe tents, so they were all in a hurry. Fortunately, we were not far from the grassland embarkment.
When we arrived at the embankment, she saw that someone was already setting up the tent. Naomilooked at me and asked, "Did you call for help?"
I shook my head in confusion. "No, what's wrong?" She pointed at the grey tent that had alreadybeen set up and lit with a small lamp in it. There was a person standing outside and his familiarsilhouette tall and slender.
Seeing that I did not know who she was speaking about, she pointed out, "Hendrix!"
When the car went closer, I saw it clearly. It was indeed Hendrix. There seemed to be someone elsein the tent. Naomi added, "Can't they just hide it? Do they have to be obvious in front of so manypeople? Isn't it disgusting?"
After that, she looked at me and frowned. "You have nothing to say about this? No emotions at all?"
I shook my head and forced a smile. "What should I say?"
I couldn't help the bitter smile. I was the one that pushed him away, and now he has found someonesuitable. All I can do is give my blessing, there was no use for any jealousy or hatred.
