Forced Wedding

Seeing both JiangChen and Jemmimah, the innocent naive Hannuel put down his cards and went in between of them

"Daddy! You shouldn't fight Mommy!"

He glared at JiangChen and as he did, what the child said kept ringing inside his head 'Daddy'... 'Daddy' ... 'Daddy'

He was stuck in a daze and as his gaze fell down to the child, who was protectively hugging his mother with a look that says "Mommy is always right, convince me"

Everyone started having the same thought inside their head 'This child is so cute'

As everyone was stuck in their own imagination, Grandpa Lu who was arguing with Old Man Xi over a silly thing just moment before, came up and talked to Grandma Lu

"Did they do a wedding?" Grandpa Lu asked as he pulled Grandma Lu at a safe distance

"Do you want to hold one for them?" Grandma Lu looked at him with her eyebrow raised

"Of course, but to be sure that he didn't just pick actors, let's put them under observation and an engagement" Grandpa Lu said his thoughts in one go, afraid that once his wife says 'no' he won't be able to do anything against it

"Actors?" She looked at this ridiculous husband of his 'Ah, such a player this old man' She sighed inwardly but she looked at group of four, JiangChen coaxing Jemmimah while the two kids hugging the woman

'Well, he's got a point, such a harmonious family won't exist' In the end, she agreed to the idea

"Now Now, we're all here attending a party, if you'd like, we can always settle this, PRIVATELY" Grandma Lu seemed to change into another person, a person who knew of every dark and dirty things of the world

JiangChen was the first to react, his body straightened and he sat down quietly while Jemmimah stood there, rooted to the ground, she kept blinking but she seemed to wonder

'Was that a demon I saw?'

Seeing JiangChen seated down, she began to sit down as well

Grandma Lu smiled "That's better now isn't it?"

Seeing the atmosphere turning into an awkward one, the host eyed the team backstage and so proceeded the program

A lady dressed in a suit approached Grandpa Lu and whispered something in her ear, Grandpa Lu nodded and stood up from her seat

JiangChen took initiative of the time Grandpa Lu left the table and pinched Jemmimah's hand

She glared at the man beside her "Stop it or else" She said in a hushed voice

"Or else what?" He pinched her hand again

"Look all around us, there are people here, they may see"

"So what then? Let them see, I'm just pinching your hand"

Jemminah glared hard at the man, both of them looked at each other, seemingly not aware of someone's gaze from behind

"That woman.... What is she doing beside my man..."

"Calm down Sarah, I bet she's just no one"

'Sarah' looked at the girl beside her, not believing it one bit

"Let's go Mia, we need to be somewhere else"

"E-Eh? But the boss-"

Sarah glared at the girl, who had no choice but to follow

'Slut... I'll show your true colors and let people ridicule you and shamelessly slander you, just you wait'

The two suddenly disappeared from sight after turning into a corner leaving the hall

~~~~~~~~~

"Ladies and gentlemen, I am thankful for attending this banquet, but this banquet also has another objective other than my my grandson, who is taking the reign over the company, cheers to him!"

The people raised their glasses with a cheer then laughed a bit, seeing this view, Grandpa Lu remembered the time he was just new, it was nostalgic

"Now, for the other agenda, My grandson-"

A butler went up stage and whispered something in Grandpa Lu's ear

After a few seconds, his eyes widened, as if her heard something very surprising

'WHAT?! How can that be!? This is preposterous!'
