Michael shut down completely. He did not want to utter a single word. But Rosie’s attitude was clear. If he said no, she might push herself too hard and fall ill. Ivanka pretended to want to speak, but Rosie stopped her. “Ivanka, don’t talk. I just want to hear it from him!” With the last few words, Rosie’s gaze fell on Michael’s face again. Michael irritably tugged at his tie. Ivanka’s eyes flickered involuntarily when she saw this. She suddenly remembered how Michael looked when he loosened his tie in his office. At that moment, Ivanka quickly averted her gaze, as if she dared not look any longer. Then, she heard Michael’s annoyed and helpless voice. “I’ll go.” Ivanka immediately looked at Michael again. Her eyes were calm, but the sarcasm and the posture of a victor were all displayed, which made Michael’s face even darker and heavier. Rosie was satisfied. She took Ivanka by the hand and started walking out. As they passed by Michael, she grabbed his hand. “No dela
Michael naturally did not want to move, but he could not withstand the continuous pressure from Rosie. After Rosie repeated herself several times, Michael had no choice but to finally move. He slightly bent his tall frame and picked a rose with his slender fingers. Rosie’s mood instantly improved. She happily said, “Good job, grandson! Only nine hundred and ninety-eight more to go to complete the task,” leaving Michael speechless. Ivanka trembled with laughter while holding her phone, unable to control the smile on her lips. Rosie was so humorous, Ivanka almost burst into laughter. Helplessly, Michael continued picking. One, two, three, four... Time passed, and Michael kept picking. Although it was already dark, the lights lit up the entire backyard and clearly illuminated every part of the scenery. Ivanka felt a bit tired holding up her phone. After Michael had continuously picked about three hundred roses, there was not a single drop of sweat on him, and his breathi
Rosie was determined to stay. Ivanka had no choice but to help her sit down. So, the two of them sat together and watched Michael busily pick roses in the sea of flowers... Rosie’s smile grew a bit wider. “This is quite pleasant to watch.” Michael remained quiet. He lowered his gaze as a cold sneer flashed in his eyes. Since Ivanka wanted roses, he would give her roses. As Rosie and Ivanka chatted and waited, Michael finally picked enough roses. All this time, Rosie had been counting in his stead. For every ten roses, she would report the count. Despite her age, Rosie’s mind was not muddled at all. She was arguably sharper than most people. Ivanka was not surprised to see no sign of fatigue on Michael’s face. Firstly, this man always maintained his composure, and secondly, although he was busy every day, he never missed his fitness routine. His physique was excellent, and a task like this would not tire him at all. But Ivanka never thought that tiring him out wa
Ivanka’s eyes flickered slightly. She quickly nodded. “Okay, let’s eat first.” She had mentioned eating first earlier, but Rosie disagreed with everything. Ivanka was somewhat regretful. She was afraid that after she left, Rosie would not have the appetite to eat, so she directly helped the elderly lady inside. However, as she looked up, she saw Michael sitting at the dining table, looking composed. Ivanka was puzzled. Ivanka had expected Michael to have stormed off by now. But now, he was actually going to stay and eat? He must really be hungry. Ivanka felt that Michael’s will was not as strong as she thought. After washing her hands, she walked to the dining table and smiled at Michael as if she was very concerned. “You must be exhausted, huh? I thought you were in good physical shape, but it seems that I have overestimated you.” The worst thing one could do to a man was mock him for not being in good shape, and Ivanka did it on purpose! Michael’s expression instant
Rosie was afraid that Ivanka would not listen, so she dragged her to Michael’s front passenger seat. She opened the door and said, “Get in, brat.” Ivanka nodded cooperatively and got into the car. Then, she looked toward Rosie. “Grandma, you should go back soon.” Rosie smiled and nodded. “Well, I’ll watch you guys leave before I go in. Fasten your seatbelt.” Ivanka obediently strapped herself in. Rosie closed the car door behind her. She still had a soft smile on her lips. Why did she feel like these two kids were slowly moving in a good direction? Although her grandson was more obedient and never disobeyed her, today, he picked 999 roses. This was a lot, and he picked them all himself. It would not be that easy, even if she forced him to. Today, her grandson seemed to agree pretty quickly. Michael and Ivanka naturally had no idea what Rosie had on her mind. The moment the car door closed, Michael drove off. Rosie watched them for a while before going back with a smile
When no one responded. Samuel was even more certain that this was the truth. He gritted his teeth and said, “This bastard. Son of a bitch. How dare he!” No one dared to say anything. Each one of them stood aside peacefully while some went quietly to work. Samuel did not know what was going on. So, he picked up his phone and dialed Michael’s number. Before Michael could say anything, he shouted out angrily. “Brat, who told you to take my roses away? I planted the whole yard full of roses for your grandmother myself. Can’t you freaking buy your own roses? Besides, what are you doing destroying my roses? Do you have a lover? It’s not Valentine’s Day. Why are you picking my roses?!” Samuel was furious. His volume raised quite a bit when he talked. His tone was deafening. Only after he finished speaking, he did not hear any response from the other side. Michael did not seem to hear him at all. “Brat, didn’t you hear what I said?” Samuel said the words with a sullen face, and
“I planted these roses with my own hands! That brat ruined all my efforts. What do you think is wrong with me?!” Samuel was losing his mind from anger. However, Rosie asked in confusion. “You planted the roses with your own hands?” How did she not know? Samuel gritted his teeth and said, “Of course I planted them with my own hands. Do I have to lie to you about something like this? What’s the point of lying?!” Rosie was even more surprised. “When did you plant them? Why didn’t I know about this?” Samuel’s expression was extremely ugly, but he did not want to respond to Rosie’s topic. “Why did that brat pick my flowers!” He put in a lot of effort to plant these flowers. In fact, they meant something. He just wanted to wait for Valentine’s Day to pick some roses and arrange them into a romantic shape. By then, the number of the remaining flowers would also amount to a prosperous figure. It would be a huge surprise from all aspects. But that bastard Michael destroyed i
Samuel frowned deeply. “I’m just asking. Why are you so frustrated?” Rosie snorted. “Our grandson picked it. It’s not anyone else. Why are you so angry.” When Samuel saw that his own wife was reluctant to say anything more, he could not ask too many questions. He would simply ask the servants later. It was just that… he was still angry!That was his effort!!! All he did was go out to run some errands and things turned into such a mess! How could he not be angry?! On the other hand, Rosie could not help but think about yesterday’s events.Although Ivanka recorded it, she might not publicize it. It was just a couple of them. So, it might not be of any evidence at all. People would still bully that girl. She could not stand to see her granddaughter being talked down to. Should she help to give Ivanka a hand? As she thought about this, Rosie suddenly felt that this made sense! She did not dwell on Samuel and went straight to her room to get help. At that moment, Ivank
