When the Wind is Sweet: The Fairy Tale of Mr. and Mrs. Lancaster-Chapter 620: Grandpa Is Angry

"Grandfather, I don’t know where Adrian Lancaster has taken my uncle, but the man in the wheelchair isn’t my uncle at all! Moreover, that guy has been taken away by the police!" Brandon Lancaster feared being interrupted and continued speaking angrily—

"Whatever story is involved here, only Adrian Lancaster himself knows. And he’s hiding it from you! It can’t be anything good!"

After speaking, he glared at Adrian Lancaster, waiting for him to give an explanation, as if he truly cared about this uncle.

Eliza Hayes’s expression turned cold, her brows furrowing from the moment Brandon Lancaster started speaking.

Just as he finished speaking, Eliza Hayes raised her eyes, ready to say something.

The old man also put down his wine glass, pointing at the sumptuous dishes on the table to cut off Eliza Hayes’s words—

"Brandon Lancaster, with so many dishes here, can’t you stuff your mouth full?!"

Grandfather was enraged—

"Every day, you just want to cause trouble! Today is a major holiday! Is hinting not enough for you? Must you insist on making me angry?!"

What kind of attitude is this from Grandfather? Brandon Lancaster was stunned.

He exposed such a significant matter, and the old man had no reaction at all? The man in the wheelchair isn’t his son, yet he isn’t anxious at all?

Even though Melanie Lancaster did not approve of her son’s actions, the timing was inappropriate.

However, since her son brought it up, how could the father have such an attitude?

Unless—

The father knew about this long ago.

Before the mother and son could react, the old man restrained his emotions and said coldly, "Brandon, about your resignation from Apex Group, how are the procedures coming along?"

At this moment, Brandon Lancaster’s phone rang, and the sudden ringtone startled him.

Panicking, he withdrew his guilty gaze, took out his phone to check the display, and saw that it was Elias Young calling, truly at an inopportune time.

Of course, he didn’t dare answer; just as he hung up, the person called again, as if it were urgent.

In front of Grandfather, he had no choice but to hang up again and then simply turn off his phone.

By now, the old man’s face had turned as dark as a thundercloud, his gaze fixed intently on him, certain that Elias Young was the caller.

"When your mother returns to the branch company in the Netherlands after the New Year, pack your things and leave with her," the old man withdrew his gaze and ordered, "First, follow her abroad for some experience."

Melanie Lancaster’s eyes widened, utterly unwilling, yet she didn’t know what to say.

"Did you hear that?!" Seeing him not answer, the old man slammed his chopsticks down on the table, shouting at his grandson, "Go to the Netherlands with your mother!" His anger was hard to contain.

"..." Brandon Lancaster was startled, his shoulders twitching a bit, feeling embarrassed and awkward as a man.

The old man highly valued traditional holidays, always advocating for family harmony and prosperity, so despite being very angry, he still stayed with the younger generation to continue the meal, not leaving the table halfway due to anger.

Melanie Lancaster could only follow her father’s lead and started scolding her son, "When Grandfather speaks to you, why don’t you answer? Brandon Lancaster, are you deaf?"

"Yes." He snapped back to reality, then looked at the elder, softly replying, "Alright, I’ll go with my Mom."

But everyone’s true understanding of the old man’s thoughts was clear tonight.

It was to keep him away from Argent, far from the center of power, to prevent him from hindering Adrian Lancaster!

The dining atmosphere afterward was unlike before.

Though the heater was on, even the air seemed to cool a bit, as everyone ate their meal in silence.

After dinner, before leaving with Faye Turner, Adrian Lancaster spoke briefly with his grandfather, comforting him and advising him not to be angry.

"I’m fine, if you two have things to do, go ahead and leave, just be safe."

The old man’s gaze fell on Faye Turner’s prominently swollen belly, and he couldn’t help but feel concerned.
