reiterated.

Jeame faced her with arched eyebrows "I will protect you, Jeane" his voice was profound, her heart moved, she let go of his arm.

And he walked into the car with him, he drove out of the garden and he headed towards the outskirt of the City.

It was still spring, the sun remained in the sky even when it was evening already.

Arial was still busy signing some files when her phone started ringing, she looked at the screen and saw the caller I.D it was Joseph, she sighed.

The anger she felt while watching the tape that Joseph was sleeping with a lady came to her mind, she resisted picking his call and continued working on the files on her desk.

The phone rang out and it started ringing again, her heart moved, she picked up the call and placed it carefully on her ear, and used her shoulder to stable it.

She concentrated on the file.

"Arial" Jo called her name, she furrowed her eyebrows when she noticed changes in his voice.

"Jo, you had so much to drink, where are you?" she asked, concerned about him, and what forced him to drink.

Joseph laughed at the other end "is nothing, Arial, I just had a few bottles, I can drive myself" his voice was more like a whisper, and somewhat slow.

Arial cringed inwardly when she heard him say that "where are you, Jo, you can't drive in that state, you might get into an accident" she warned.

He sighed "alright, alright, I am just in a bar in the street where your company is," he said and ended the call.

Arial stood instinctively abandoning her walk, she came out of her office surprising her secretary, she knew Arial as a workaholic lady, who spend most of her day in the office.

"I will be back" she got out of the office, she took her private elevator to the door floor.

Jeame drove into the mansion, when Jeane came down from the car, she saw her grandfather standing on the balcony with glass.

"He is drinking again" Jeane mumbled before the two of them got into the house.

Jeane went straight to her grandfather, who had already settled in a sofa in the balcony and placed the glass on a table by his side.

"Grandpa, you are drinking again?" she asked, worried about his bad mood.

Old Man Bill sighed "Jo, came to the office today, we fought," he said and took another shot.

Jeane realizes that Jo was always the reason why his father always returned to his old habit.

"stop drinking, dad," she said and took the glass from him, Old Man Bill stared at her helplessly.

"I just want him to be a better person," he said, sighing in regret.

"I know father, I will call him and talk to him" Jeane promised "just don't drink and get yourself harmed," she said worried about his health, Old Man Bill nodded in agreement.
