Chapter 68 Chocolate Cake

Brianna’s POV

“To me it seems like he’s fond of you.”

From the closed door, my eyes slowly turned to my grandfather. I smiled awkwardly at him. “It’s not like that, Papa.”

He smirked. “He invested in the company.”

“He saw the potential.”

“He could have done that before I gave you my position.”

Ismiled. “The company was falling when I got the position.”

He sighed and nodded, finally accepting my reasons. “That’s reasonable. By the way, I haven’t seen your Uncle. Where is he? Is he disappointed that I’m still alive?”

My forehead creased. “What do you mean, Papa?”

He laughed. “Don’t take that the wrong way. Your uncle is dumb, naive, greedy and impulsive but he won’t kill me. I know him. He’s my son.”

I sighed and looked down. “Papa, uncle ran away.”

His forehead creased. “He ran away? Why? I mean…is there a reason to?”
