Chapter 94 - Harmony

Emily planted her feet early in the morning, so she still felt a little sour on her calves. After breakfast, she took a walk along the living room with trembling legs. Suddenly, she heard the butler outside shouting, "You are here, Mr. Eliot. Please come in. Mr. Vincent and Miss Emily have just finished their breakfast."

Emily immediately walked to the sofa and sat down. If Eliot found out that there was something wrong with her legs, he would definitely ask her what happened. How would she explain it?

Should she say that she was practicing martial arts with Vincent this morning?

Just as she was anxious, a servant came over with a wooden basin, which was put under her feet. The servant squatted down, put her feet in it, and then massage her feet.

Emily was surprised when she heard Maury's voice from the door, "Sorry to bother you."

The butler smiled and said in an official tone, "No at all. Miss Emily is very cute and kind."

Maury smiled. "My daughter is really not mature. I'm afraid that she may cause trouble for you, so I plan to bring her home today."

As they spoke, they entered the living room. Rolando hurriedly stopped chatting with his old friends and hung up the phone. Then he walked out. He held Maury's hands and said, "Mr. Maury, your daughter is really great!"

Maury was stunned when he heard this. He felt that Rolando was not praising him, but laughing at him. He tried to remain calm and said, "No matter how much trouble my daughter has caused for you, I will be responsible for it."

Eliot also said seriously to Mr. Rolando, "What's wrong my sister?"

Only then did Mr. Rolando realize that Maury didn't look good. Perhaps he was too enthusiastic. So he calmed down a little and greeted Maury again, "Come. Take a seat."

They walked from the living room to the sofa and finally saw the person they had just talked about was sitting quietly on the sofa. Her feet were soaking in the water and she was enjoying the massage.

When she saw them, she said sweetly, "Eliot, Dad."

Then she looked down at the petals in the wooden basin. She continued playing with them happily.

Maury, "..."

His worriers were in vain!

Eliot, "..."

His concern was in vain!

Mr. Rolando narrowed his eyes and smiled, "This girl is really adorable. I still want her to stay here for a few more days. Are you going to take her back now?"

He naturally understood why his grandson suddenly wanted to bet with him last night. Since it was his grandson's first time to "beg" him, then as a grandfather, he needed to do what he should do.

Maury did not quite understand why Emily was liked by Mr. Rolando, so he could only praise her, "My daughter is simple and innocent, like a child, but she respects the elders very much. She is also very modest to other children, and she is very polite."

Mr. Rolando felt that Emily's father didn't understand him. The reason why he liked the girl was that she was the first girl that his grandson had brought home at night. Thus, no matter who she was, Mr. Rolando liked her. This had nothing to do with that she was kind or modest.

The center of Rolando's life was his grandson. Even if his grandson married a woman, who was hot-tempered, troublesome and even had a fight with others, he would definitely first protect her and then try to handle the rest.

Although it was a little unfair to the girl when he thought about this, he only had one grandson and had taken care of him for more than twenty years. If this "bastard" still couldn't find a girlfriend, Rolando should be prepared for that Vincent brought a boyfriend home.

Fortunately, this girl appeared from nowhere and saved him, which made him feel proud among his old friends. Thinking of this, he no longer beat around the bush and directly said to Maury, "I like this kid very much. I want her to stay here for another month. What do you think?"

Maury hadn't expected that Rolando would want Emily to stay here for another month. He remembered that last night, Emily was allowed to live here only for a few days! He was immediately stunned.

Eliot replied quickly, "My sister is still young, so she may cause trouble sometimes. She is still like a child. We are worried that she will cause trouble for you and your family, so we think it's better for us to bring her home!"

Only now did Mr. Rolando realize that it was strange. Even if the girl was quite young, her father and brother shouldn't be so worried and nervous. Actually, he didn't know Emily's another identity-the retard of the Britts. He only wanted her to be his granddaughter-in-law, so he said again, "What trouble will she bring us? Don't worry! She is especially adorable. Besides, she likes here. Let her stay here for a few more days. When she is tired of here, I'll ask someone to send her back."

Since Rolando said this, Maury and Eliot didn't know what to say. Mr. Rolando expression was a little serious. He looked as if he would be angry if they said one more word.

The fruit and tea were served. Maury took a sip of tea and talked with Mr. Rolando. He heard Emily chatting with the servant who was massaging her.

"R-o-s-e! Rose." The servant taught Emily pronunciation and even opened her mouth to show the tongue.

Emily learned to say, "Rose."

Eliot looked over in surprise. The servant took out the petals from the wooden basin and talked to Emily. She would occasionally say a few words to Emily and explained, "Water. This is water."

Maury also opened his mouth wide in shock. No one taught Emily pronunciation at home. He couldn't believe that her pronunciation was so accurate.

Vincent came down from upstairs. His gaze swept past the people on the sofa and nodded slightly to Maury. Then, he walked over without saying a word. Rex reported today's schedule to him.

"There's a targeted market assessment report meeting in the marketing department this afternoon. There's an interview of a fashion magazine at 4:00 p.m. and I've rejected it. Mr. Noel from the Promising International Company invites you to dinner tonight. Shall I reject it as well?"

Vincent nodded and then looked at Maury on the sofa. He asked, "I remember your company seems to be able to do the EPC project?"

Maury stood up and said with embarrassment, "Yes, we can."

Although Vincent was a junior to him, in terms of ability, Vincent was the king of the business in City Y. Regardless of the status, Maury hadn't seen anyone that could be Vincent's competitor.

Besides, Vincent was well known that he was temperamental. Another reason why Maury was anxious to take Emily home was that he was worried that Emily would irritate Vincent. After all, Emily had fallen into Vincent's swimming pool at the last banquet and she was forced to compensate 500,000, which was indeed a great loss for them.

Vincent looked down at the document and handed it to the assistant behind him. "Let's cooperate with the Britt Group in this project."

Rex took the document and said to Maury, "Mr. Maury, let's sit down and have a talk."

Maury was surprised and happy. He said, "Well, that's great."

Eliot, on the other side, looked at Vincent.

He saw Vincent walk away and took a sip of the tea handed over by the butler. He looked noble and his expression was cold and arrogant. Then he walked to Emily and said to her, "Don't soak in the water for too long."

Although they did not look at each other, nor did they communicate with each other, Eliot felt that the atmosphere between them seemed to be very harmonious.
