Chapter 131 - Grandpa Lu Was Very Happy
"She's special… very special to me," Tristan mumbled those words with tenderness in his eyes.
Grandpa Lu was taken aback when he heard the sincerity in every word he said. He knew that Tristan was not pretending. He could tell that Tristan truly cared about Lillie, not just because of the deal between them.
He observed how Tristan acted and became very protective of her since the last confrontation they had at Davies Family Mansion regarding the seduction attempt with Andrew. Grandpa Lu was now thinking maybe Lillie was the one who could change his grandson bad habits with women.
He would want to see how this marriage would work. He had a high expectation of them. He hoped that Tristan would be serious this time and would refrain from playing around with women.
On the positive side, Grandpa Lu noticed some changes in his grandson. He was not that hurt anymore whenever he would look at Hannah and Andrew. He was silently observing Tristan during the entire duration of the program.
'Is Lillie able to help him move on little by little?' Grandpa Lu pondered at that thought.
Grandpa Lu snapped back from his deep thoughts when Tristan spoke up to him.
"Grandpa… can you please unfreeze my credit card now?" Tristan blurted out with his pleading look.
Grandpa Lu raised his eyebrow while giving Tristan a kind of look as if saying 'Why should I do that? Give me a valid and good reason to do that?'
Tristan tried his best to use his charm with his grandpa by giving him a pitiful face but it was not working. He had no choice but to explain, trying his luck that his grandpa would forgive him.
"Grandpa… the truth is… that day I used my credit card and spent so much because I reserved the whole restaurant so that no one would disturb me and my wife during our lunch date. It was also the day that I married Lillie."
"We celebrated at Captain Jack's Harbour Restaurant. So please grandpa, forgive me this once. I just wanted to make my wife happy and surprise her that day." Tristan said to Grandpa Lu with his puppy-eyed look.
Grandpa Lu was startled when he learned the reason why Tristan spent so much that day. It turned out he was trying to celebrate with his wife and giving her a surprise.
'Eh, It's not my fault! He didn't inform me! If I just knew then I would never freeze his cards. This stupid grandson of mine… I didn't know what should I do with him.'
"I am planning to buy more gifts for my wife like clothes and dresses but you suddenly freeze my account. I feel like I am a useless CEO husband who can't even buy my wife a proper dress on such occasions like this. See… we ended up coming late." Tristan complained to his grandpa like a child.
Grandpa Lu: "..."
Grandpa Lu was rendered speechless. It looked like his grandson was blaming him for what happened.
"Don't tell me you are blaming me? In the first place, it was your fault for not informing me about your marriage, foolish young man! This would not happen if you didn't hide this from me. How would I know that?" Grandpa Lu couldn't help but scold him.
Tristan just smiled sheepishly at him while scratching his face. "Because I want to surprise you, grandpa. Did you like my surprise?"
Grandpa Lu was overjoyed by Tristan's surprise but he won't admit that to his grandson. He didn't want him to take advantage of that. He just merely lifted an eyebrow without responding to Tristan, maintaining his poker face.
"Grandpa?"
"Hmm, what?"
"My credit card?" Tristan was staring at him expectantly.
"I'll think about it first." Grandpa Lu said.
Tristan just heaved a deep sigh. "Alright! I won't beg anymore. But grandpa… make sure to give me and Lillie extravagant gifts for our wedding." Tristan shamelessly said to his grandpa.
"Oh, now, I hope you will not use my CEO position again to threaten me. I already gave you what you want, Grandpa. Please be true and stick with your words." Tristan reminded him.
"I know." Grandpa Lu just simply stated.
"Okay, Grandpa. That's great. Haha. I think we'd already talked too much. I'm done explaining too. I need to go back to my wife now. Can I do that, Grandpa?" Tristan cheerfully said, asking permission from his grandpa.
Grandpa Lu just waved his hand nonchalantly, dismissing Tristan. "Shoo! Go to your wife!"
Tristan let out a soft chuckle before leaving his grandpa. When Tristan left, Grandpa Lu signaled Assistant Twig to come over.
"How is it, Chairman? Did you get the answer that you want? Is young master Tristan give you a piece of good news? Is another young Davies coming to our family?" Assistant Twig asked Grandpa Lu eagerly. He was also curious about what Grandpa Lu and Tristan had talked about just now.
Grandpa Lu breathed a sigh of disappointment when he heard the word young Davies. Unfortunately, Lillie was not yet pregnant. Grandpa Lu just shook his head as a response.
"Don't worry, Chairman Lu. Lillie is a very charming woman. With your grandson's reputation, I'm sure he won't let the opportunity go to waste. Hehe. I believe he might give you the good news soon. Why didn't you ask him if they already consummated their marriage?" Assistant Twig suggested while having naughty thoughts in mind.
"Hmm. Yeah, I forgot about that. I just forced him to marry. Do you think I should force him again to give me great-grandchild too?"
"But I can't use his CEO position now to threaten him," Grandpa Lu added.
"Hmm, then let's think of another way, Chairman."
The Chairman and the Assistant were also conniving with each other. Their first mission was a success now they were thinking about their next plan. Since the naughty grandson had settled down with a woman already, their next goal this time was to have a great-grandchild.
"Oh, by the way… please reactivate Tristan's credit cards tomorrow. And… tell the bank to increase the credit limits of his card three times the original."
Assistant Twig: "..."
'Eh??? Is Chairman Lu very happy that his naughty grandson finally got married? He even ordered me to increase his credit limits three times the original credit limits!'
