Female Novel
Chapter 808
"Huh?" Zaydon had seemingly caught onto something as he probed, "What engagement? Who will be engaged?"
Monica glared at him and ignored him.
Zaydon gave her a funny look while staring at her as he said, "What happened? All I did was take a trip and so much that I had no idea about has happened? Moreover, what's with your little gaze? Why does it seem like I've done something that has wronged you?"
"Well, it's like this. Titan had always adored both of his grandchildren, so he explained to Zaydon, "Our family had an engagement agreement with the Collins family back then. However, Jarold's daughter didn't approve of the engagement, so our families didn't end up marrying each other. Both Jarold and I have talked and since our children weren't able to marry each other then our grandchildren might be able to in the future. Jarold had recently reunited with his own biological grandchild, so we're both preparing for the marriage."
Zaydon raised his brows after hearing this, "Reunited with his own grandchild? A male?"
"That's right."
Zaydon took a glance at Monica as he jokingly said, "Grandpa, would stubborn and hot-tempered Monica agree to an engagement? Besides.. you both are extremely old now, how can the both of you still be interested in being the matchmakers for youngsters?"
"What are you talking about, brother? You can't say that about grandpa."
Monica reached out to shield Titan while exclaiming furiously.
As the siblings playfully bickered, Titan cheerfully said, "Do you think I'm only trying to be a matchmaker for fun? I'm doing it for the little brat, Monica..."
"Monica?" Zaydon squinted his eyes and asked, "What's wrong with her?"
"Why don't you ask her then. She visited the Collins family home every day when someone was injured. She's still visiting him every day even when he has recovered now. She's making it seem like she's completely willing to be their granddaughter-in-law."
Zaydon could somehow understand what was being implied after hearing that, "Monica has caught feelings?"
That was odd since Monica had always been really picky and she only wanted Maddox all these years.
However, Maddox has already married not long ago. Could his sister finally have given up?
Monica glared at Zaydon while she bit her lower lip.
"I'll deal with my own affairs, brother. You're not allowed to intervene in my matters this time."
Zaydon then said, "You're making it sound like I've always stuck my nose in your affairs though."
"Isn't that the case last time?"
"Last time? Last time was an exception, okay? Look, if I didn't stop you back then, you'll..."
"Alright, that's enough. The past is not important anymore. I don't blame you for intervening back then but please promise me that you'll stay out of my matters in the future."
Zaydon stared at her with a troubled look, "I'm helping you, you know. How can you say that I'm sticking my nose into your affairs?"
"It doesn't matter, so do you agree or not?"
"Alright, fine. I promise."
No matter what happened, she was still his biological sister, so all Zaydon could do was to agree to her promise.
"You must help Monica then, grandpa."
"Alright. As long as she likes it, I'll help her no matter what. You must be exhausted today, right? Hurry up and take a rest."
"Okay. Grandpa, don't forget about this and talk to the Collins family tomorrow. I'll head upstairs first."
After she left, Zaydon could not help but narrow his eyes and said, "Who on Earth is the grandson of the Collins family to have Monica so obsessed over him?"
Titan smiled while stroking his beard as he wondered just what kind of a person he was. He then explained in a serious tone, "He is quite an impressive figure alright. I like him too and besides, he and Monica will be the perfect couple."
"I'm quite interested to see just what kind of a person he is to have you praise him so highly."
The next day.
Since Zaydon wanted to take a look at who that person was worthy of his grandfather's praise and Monica's heart, he decided to directly head over to the Collins Corporation.
When he approached the front desk, the receptionist seemed completely lost in him.
"You, you are..."
Zaydon was quite a reputable man in his social circle. His looks and social status captivated the hearts of many young women. There was also plenty of news and pictures about him on WeChat and in magazines. Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org
He used to say that he preferred adorable looking petite girls with long hair, bright eyes and bangs. This broke the heart of plenty of women that were tall.
This caused petite little girls to keep their hair long and maintain their bangs.
Unfortunately, they had no chance of getting close to Zaydon, so they decided to apply for a position in the Dormer Group like a complete maniac.
"I'm Zaydon, Zaydon Dormer. I want to meet President Collins. Is that okay?"
It took a while for the receptionist to snap out of her trance as she hurriedly nodded and said, "Of course you can."
Zaydon curled his lips and spoke in a very seductive voice, "I don't have an appointment though. Is that going to be fine as well?"
"Sure, of course. I'll bring you upstairs."
"Thank you."
The receptionist's heart was racing while she escorted Zaydon to the elevator. She had never expected to be able to stand so close to Zaydon in her lifetime. This felt like a historical moment to her.
While they were on their way to the President's office, a person walked out of the secretary's room. The instant they walked by each other, Zaydon noticed someone familiar by looking out from the corner of his eyes. Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org
He paused for a moment and looked back at the person's back who had already left as he slowly squinted his eyes.
That... back. If he wasn't mistaken, wasn't that Minerva?
Zaydon found it very odd to have run into her a few days ago at the restaurant. He did not expect to run into her again so soon. However... the only thing was, what was she doing here anyway?
Zaydon was very confused.
When the receptionist noticed his pause and him staring at Minerva's leaving back, she somehow felt her heart throb all of a sudden.
"What are you looking at, President Dormer?"
Zaydon pointed at the silhouette and asked, "Who was the one who walked by earlier?"
What? It turned out that he was really looking at her.novelbin
Sigh, beautiful people really were different since even Zaydon was looking at her as well. He even asked her about it.
The receptionist's heart was throbbing but she still replied, "That is the new secretary's assistant we had just hired. She's quite fortunate though, since the position was vacant for a really long time and she was the first to pass." Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org
"Secretary's assistant?" Zaydon was still puzzled while he muttered those words.
He was certain that that woman was Minerva but... why would she want to be the secretary's assistant here?
"Linda, this is the President of the Dormer Group. He wants to meet the President."
Dormer group?
Linda lifted her head immediately and took a quick glance at Zaydon before saying, "Please wait for a moment. I'll inform the President."
Linda led him to the door. After coming out of the office, "Please."
Zaydon cracked a polite smile at her before fixing his shirt and striding inside.
If the man was to be his future brother-in-law, he... he... would no doubt want to leave a good impression for him.
However, when Zaydon got a clear look at the man who was sitting by his desk, he was completely dumbfounded...
