Chapter 76
As soon as Sadin Andrew entered the room, he saw a slim figure sitting with her back to him. Thanks to his strong memory, he recognized her at the first sight.
Anna Stuat, his future sister-in-law, had happened to see him on many occasions. She was a very complicated person.
Sadin Andrew had made a simple definition of Anna Stuat in just a few days.
There was only an empty seat left on the round table, just next to Anna Stuat. He hesitated for a moment, which was rare to see.
At this time, master’s wife Elsa came over from behind and said, “sit down quickly. We are waiting for you.”
He walked up and sat down.
The originally spacious place suddenly became a little crowded. Anna Stuat was not used to it and moved towards Mike Berly. The next second, Mike Berly passed him and greeted Sadin Andrew.
“Brother, you are finally here. Grandpa has been missing you for the past two days.” There was a hint of shyness in her words.
Sadin Andrew turned around and saw Mike Berly, who was a little far away from her. He nodded at her and said, “Mike.”
Mike Berly’s words didn’t stop at the beginning. Sadin Andrew’s response gave him the courage to continue. he leaned over and continued, “I bought a painting at the auction held by Victor two days ago. Please help me check it later.”
“Okay.” Sadin Andrew nodded again.
“By the way, I know a senior in the Department of oil painting. She said she was…”
Anna Stuat found that there was an obvious problem with Mike Berly when she spoke, which was that he was easy to lean forward and get close to her.
However, there was a woman between her and Sadin Andrew. She leaned forward when she spoke, so that her position was very cramped.
Anna Stuat stepped back subconsciously.
When her shoulder touched a hard arm, she paused.
“I’m sorry.” Anna Stuat turned around and apologized.RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only
When she met Sadin Andrew’s eyes, she realized that he looked at her coldly.
Anna Stuat had never heard of Sadin Andrew before. She hadn’t had much contact with him in her previous life or this life.
But when she looked at Sadin Andrew’s eyes, she couldn’t help but feel a little confused. Had she ever provoked him by accident? Otherwise, why did this gentleman, who was said to be very kind and gentle in the upper class of the capital city, see her resistance like this, and even with a faint sense of disgust?
“It doesn’t matter.” Sadin Andrew said with a stiff face.
Anna Stuat had already moved quickly to keep a distance from him. A faint fragrance slowly floated in the air.
Sadin Andrew’s eyes narrowed. She didn’t like Anna Stuat, because the situation just now was getting worse.
On the other side, Mike Berly didn’t notice that. He tilted his head and wanted to say something more, but he stopped him in time. “Let’s talk later.”
Mike Berly was speechless. He thought that his senior fellow apprentice was tired of him, so he could only nod with grievance. He didn’t even raise his mood during the meal.
When everyone was here, the simple birthday party began.
During the dinner, the old master Berly solemnly introduced the Berly Stuat to the other members of the Berly family. “This is the Anna Stuat. I’ve mentioned it to you before. You should know it.”
The group of two generations of the Berly family at the table looked at them curiously.
Anna Stuat felt very uncomfortable.
She could only smile to cover up her embarrassment.
“Today is my birthday. There is one more thing that I want to invite Anna Stuat here.” As the old master Berly spoke, he suddenly paused and looked mysteriously at Anna Stuat.
Anna Stuat was stunned, “vasati Bermin…”
“Anna Stuat, I know something about your family. You are about the same age as a teenager. I think you two are congenial. Would you like to be my granddaughter?”
Anna Stuat was completely stunned.
She didn’t expect that vasati Bermin would make such a proposal.
A sharp sight came to her with a very complicated emotion.
Normally, Anna Stuat would study it carefully, but now she was totally confused.
It took the long time for her to react. She quickly waved her hand and said, “how can that be possible? The Berly family…”
Seeming to have guessed what Anna Stuat was going to say, vasati Bermin waved his hand impatiently and said, “don’t talk about family background with me. I want to take you as my granddaughter. From now on, you are as Mike in my eyes. Do you want to refuse me?”
Anna Stuat was rendered speechless.
Since the old master Berly had said that, it would be too embarrassing for her to refuse.
She hesitated and didn’t know what to do.
Mike Berly tugged at the hem of her clothes and said excitedly, “just say yes!”
“Well…” Anna Stuat hesitated.
The old master Berly narrowed his eyes and asked, “do you think that I don’t deserve your identity as an old man?”
“How could it be?” Anna Stuat sighed helplessly and nodded. “Since you said so, vasati Bermin, how can I refuse?”
“Then why still call me vasati Bermin?”
Anna Stuat came to her senses and immediately changed her tone, “Grandpa.”
This time, the old master Berly finally smiled with satisfaction. He picked up a glass of medicinal wine in front of him and took a big gulp. “Okay, okay. I need to hold a media conference tomorrow…”
Anna Stuat was taken aback. She didn’t expect that a press conference would be held just to recognize her as a granddaughter?
She really didn’t like to show her face in front of others, so she wanted to refuse, “Grandpa, there’s no need for the press conference. There’s no need to make such a big move.”
The old master Berly took a look at Anna Stuat and thought for a while. “It’s okay if you don’t want to hold a press conference, but we have to be more formal as sworn relatives. Besides, if you become my granddaughter, you have to learn Chinese painting from me for several years.”
Anna Stuat didn’t expect that. “But I…”
Before she could say the three words, the old master Berly impatiently waved her hand and said, “don’t tell me that you don’t have time. Even if you don’t have time, you have to squeeze out time. From now on, you can come to learn from me for an hour every day.”
How could he make such a conclusion so easily.
Anna Stuat was really a headache.
But when she calmed down later, she knew that it was a good thing for her.
With the help of the relationship between the Berly family and the old master Berly, she believed that the Bright Stuat would not dare to look down upon her in the future.
She knew what the old master Berly was thinking. She wanted to be her backstage supporter because she had saved her life last time.
