Chapter 55 – His Relatives
Finally, the car arrived in front like a military compound. Guards stood in front of the gate, and Nicole was a little confused.
After a strict inspection, they were allowed to enter the compound with the guards saluting, and they finally stopped in front of a large white house.
Kevin went forward and rang the doorbell. Nicole followed him with great anxiety.
After a while, she heard a voice coming from inside, “Hey, they are coming.”NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.
The door opened, and a servant in an apron stood behind the door. When she saw Kevin, her face immediately blossomed with joy, and then she shouted to the inside, “Mrs. Philip, Kevin is back. Kevin is back!”
The voice of the servant was so loud that even Nicole could feel the joy in her words.
It seemed that Kevin was very popular.
“Mrs. Kang, long time no see.”
“I’m here, of course I’m very good. Kevin, please come in. Mrs. Philip knows that you’re coming back today, and she’s been busy for a whole day.”
“Is that so? I’ll go and have a look.”
Kevin was smiling?
The sincere smile was on his face. Although it was very faint, it still surprised Nicole. In her impression, he had always been cold and aloof, and rarely showed such real emotions.
“Come in.”
After walking two steps, Kevin noticed that Nicole was still standing there in a daze, so he reminded her unpleasantly.
“Ah, oh.”
As soon as Nicole entered the living room, she saw a kind old lady coming out of the kitchen, who had white hair, wore a floral apron and a pearl necklace around her neck. Her eyes were very gentle and her voice was also very pleasant.
“Kevin, you are back!”
“Yes, grandma.”
Mrs. Philip noticed Nicole behind Kevin and her eyes lit up. “Kevin, who’s this?”
Kevin said to Nicole, “Nicole, this is our grandma.”
Nicole was a little embarrassed, because he didn’t inform her in advance.
Seeing Nicole’s silly look, Kevin pulled her to his side and said to Mrs. Philip, “Grandma, this is Nicole. We just got our marriage certificate today.”
“What?” The spatula in Mrs. Philip’s hand fell to the ground, and she couldn’t react for a while.
Kevin pulled Nicole again and said, “This is my grandma, you also call her grandma.”
Nicole looked at Mrs. Philip with embarrassment. Under Kevin’s sharp gaze, she speaks, “Grandma.”
“Well, okay.” Mrs. Philip came to herself from the shock and hurriedly asked the servant to serve tea.
Nicole sat on the luxurious sofa like sitting on needles. It was obvious that Mrs. Philip was very important to Kevin, and was also easy to get along with. Thus, Nicole felt guilty for lying to Mrs. Philip.
Mrs. Philip really did not expect that Kevin who was always silent had got married. She was so excited that she immediately called her husband.
“Mr. Philip, come back quickly. Kevin has a girlfriend. Oh no, no, his wife. They are back. Come back quickly.”
After a while, the roar of the car rushed into the yard. Nicole saw an old man in a military uniform come in. Although he was old, he had a straight back. His calm and awe-inspiring look carried the natural arrogance and integrity of a soldier, as if all demons and ghosts were not worth mentioning in his eyes.
Nicole stooped up and tried to look as natural and graceful as possible, but in fact she was so nervous that her bowels seemed to be tied up.
This man was Kendrc’s grandfather. In fact, Kevin was more like his grandfather’s domineering.
The atmosphere in the living room suddenly became strange. Mrs. Philip came out of the kitchen with soup in her hand. She stood in front of Nicole and blocked Rod Philip’s sharp eyes.
“Hey, what are you doing? You look fierce as soon as you come back. Who are you scaring? If you scare my granddaughter-in-law away, you can compensate me.”
Rod Philip stayed in the army all year round, so he naturally had a majestic mNicoler. Nicole was a delicate girl, and he didn’t know how to get along with her, but he said, “You’re impolite. You don’t even know how to call me when you see me!”
“Grand… Grandpa, I’m sorry. I’m too nervous.” Nicole explained in a hurry. She had forgotten to react when Rod looked at her just now. She didn’t do it on purpose.
“Hump.” Rod put his hands behind his back and asked, “Where is Kevin?”
“Grandpa, I’m here.” Kevin washed his hands and wore a white shirt. His sleeves were slightly rolled up, revealing a small part of his strong arm. But Rod was dissatisfied.
Originally, Rod Philip came back happily all the way, but there was nothing to say when they really met. Rod was used to being strict.
Some Philip family’s descendants joined the army, and some became government officials. Rod was very proud of them. Rod had a love-hate relationship with Kevin.
Rod hoped that Kevin could join the army or become the government official like the Philip family’s descendants. However, Kevin had a smell of stinking money all over his body, and he wanted to be a businessman.
Rod looked down on businessmen. The George family was a thorn in Rod’s eyes. If it weren’t for the sake of Albert George, Rod would have shot Will George in the head.
Kevin managed George Group very well. Although Rod did not care about the economy, he could often see the media magazine’s reports about George Group. Thinking that his grandson ran it himself, Rod’s heart was full of pride. In short, his feelings for Kevin were very complicated.
One son of the Philip family was a high-ranking official in the army. It was a pity that he was divorced after getting married. He had no children. Another son was the secretary of the provincial party committee.
He was about forty years old, but he was still alone, which made Mrs. Philip anxious. Kevin was the only descendant of the Philip family, so Rod’s feeling for Kevin was more complicated.
Therefore, as the granddaughter-in-law of the Philip family, Nicole attracted more attention.
When they were eating, they heard that Nicole was still a college student.
Rod dropped his chopsticks directly, and even Mrs. Philip was shocked.
Nicole was a little too young, but Mrs. Philip hastened to mediate. “Rod, what are you doing? She is twenty-three years old, and she’ll graduate soon. It’s said that girls can get married when they’re twenty years old. The country’s idea is always right. Since she’s already at a legal age, it’s normal for her to get married.”
“You always spoil Kevin so that you’ll get into trouble sooner or later.”
“Hum, I’m used to it, but you’re not.” Mrs. Philip shook her head proudly and immediately looked at Nicole with a pleasant smile, “Nicole, come on, eat vegetables. Don’t be scared by your grandfather. He has such a temper. He is real stuff.”
“Who are you talking about?” Rod was angry.
“I said you are really stiff.”
“You…” Rod was so angry that he left, and the table immediately became silent and cheerless.
Mrs. Philip sighed and said to Nicole, “Nicole, don’t take this matter to heart. As long as Kevin likes you, your grandfather will not object. Come on, take this.”
Grandma took off a glittering and translucent jade bracelet from her hand and put it on Nicole’s slender wrist. At first glance, Nicole knew that it was priceless, so it was not easy for her to pick it up.
“Take it. It’s a wedding gift for you. Take it and it’s good for your health. It’s better if you can give birth to a baby earlier.” Mrs. Philip suddenly looked at Nicole’s belly with shining eyes, which made Nicole’s scalp tingle. Nicole could only ask Kevin for help. They did not tell about her pregnancy right now, she just kept quiet.
However, Kevin slowly picked up a chopstick of vegetables into his mouth. After eating, he wiped the corner of his mouth gracefully and elegantly, and said, “Just take it if you want.”
“That’s right. Kevin, stay at home with Nicole tonight.”
“Okay.”
After they finished their dinner, Nicole was dragged upstairs and entered a room of 40 to 50 square meters with an independent balcony.
The room with black and white decoration was clean and concise, and it was obvious that it was Kevin’s style. The bed was too big, and it also had a special cloakroom, a study room and a bathroom.
“Are we really going to live here tonight?”
“Do you think I’m joking?”
“No.” Nicole shook her head. “It’s just…”
Before she finished her words, Kevin began to undress over there. Nicole stamped her feet.
“Hey, what are you doing?”
“Aren’t you going to take off your clothes and take a shower?” Kevin’s tone was full of sarcasm.
“I… Ah.” Nicole was speechless. She simply turned around and heard the sound of the clothes falling to the ground one by one. Her heart beat faster.
“Do you want to take a shower together?”
“W-what?” Nicole still thought that she heard it wrong, but in the blink of an eye, the sexy and extraordinary male body had come to her.
“Ahhh.” Nicole hurriedly covered her eyes with her hands. “Kevin George, what are you doing? Go in and take a shower. Who wants to take a bath with you?”
Kevin said, “Oh, I thought you wanted to take a shower with me together.”
“Screw you, who wants to take a shower with you!”
It was not until hearing the sound of running water from the bathroom that Nicole realized that she was so nervous. She stayed in this strange room and suddenly felt a little absent minded. Kevin’s bag was placed on the tea table nearby.
The bag opened, and she could see two red marriage certificates inside.
