Chapter 727
Thinking about his scandal with her, Odell picked up the phone.
Lily immediately asked, “Master Carter, did you see the online article?”
She sounded anxious. Odell replied, “Yeah. I’ve asked Cliff to handle it. The news will be taken down by tonight.” “I’m also handling it on my side, but I did not expect my family to see it,” Lily said glumly. Since it had happened because of him, Odell asked, “Do you need me to personally explain the situation to them?” “No. I’ve tried explaining it, but my grandfather is quite stubborn in his old age and has refused to listen to me,” She sighed as she said this. “It’s okay. I’ll think of something and not disturb your rest.” Odell agreed.
Two days later, at the Carter Tower.
Odell sat behind his desk as usual as he went through some documents.
Suddenly, someone knocked on his door.
“Come in,” He said.
Cliff pushed the door open as he walked in and said respectfully , “Master Carter , Miss Springsteen is here. She said that she has to see you about an urgent matter.”
An urgent matter?
Odell frowned. “Let her in.”
“Yes.”
He continued reading the document.
When the door opened again and Lily came in, Odell put
aside the document in his hand.
Odell was silent for a while. “I can explain it to him.” “It’s useless. Grandfather has shut himself in his room and refused to see anyone, even my grandmother. I believe he’ll only meet with you if we get engaged and you ask to see him as my fiance.” Odell frowned deeply.
Master Springsteen was indeed stubborn and conservative, but he did not plan to ever remarry.
Once he was engaged to Lily, marriage would then soon be next on their agenda.
Although Odell had no feelings for her, he was aware of her feelings for him. It was just that he did not want to bother with it.
Moreover, Madam Springsteen and his Grand-aunt Ramona had always tried to set them up anyway.
However, he was indeed the cause of this scandal.
“Master Carter, do you remember that on that morning two days ago, at Lush Heaven, you personally granted me a request?” Lily suddenly said.
