A Moment in Destiny novel Chapter 706

After get off work, Sylvie Mccarthy was still handling something. She called back to the Mccarthy old house. She did not and tell Marley Hughes about the 300 million gambling debt. Also, she didn’t want to do so. She really didn’t know how and where to get the 300 million. Therefore, she could only go back to the Mccarthy house to think about the solution for it.

Tyler and Marley were walking out of the CEO’s room at the same time. Everyone was gone and Sylvie was also ready to leave.

“Secretary Sylvie, I'm off work, see you tomorrow!” Tyler smiled and said goodbye to her before he left.

There were only Marley and Sylvie staying on the top floor. She got up immediately and said, “CEO, you can go first! I still have something to do!”

When hearing of that, he turned his head suddenly and looked at her with a scrutiny in his eyes, “What? You are punished to copy fifty times, so you are angry now?”

Sylvie shook her head hurriedly. “No! No! I am not. I'm going to meet my grandpa today!”

Marley glanced at Sylvie and asked in his deep voice, “You are going back to Mccarthy house?”

“Yes!” Sylvie nodded and replied him. Then, she quickly packed the papers on the table and the document that was written with secretary's rules. She had to go back and copied these detailed provisions for fifty times. She had the idea that she had not time to sleep tonight!

“I'll take you a ride there!” he said solemnly.

“Huh?” Her hands trembled and then she shook her head, “No thanks, I can take a cab by myself!”

He frowned slightly but not going to force her. He turned and left.

Sylvie was startled for a moment. Then, she sneered at herself. She lowered her head, took the documents and put them in her bag. After that, she went downstairs.

He used the exclusive lift while she took the employee lift.

He got out of the building one step earlier than her. After she came out, she went straight to the bus stop station outside. When she stood there waiting for the bus, Marley was just driving his car out. He looked at her slim and thin figure under the bus stop station from a distance. She was holding her bag and waiting for the bus with her anxious eyesight.

He didn't even understand of it. As her current identity, she could just buy a car. Why did she need to take a bus with so many people?

Just as he was in a daze, her gaze seemed to look towards his car.

Indeed, Sylvie saw Marley’s car. She was startled. By then, Marley’s car had moved pass her without stopping.

At the time, the bus had arrived. Sylvie was holding her bag and money in her hand. She was getting ready to insert coins on the bus.

Marley who drove more than ten meters away saw her getting in the car from his side mirror. His brows were frowning. His car slid out quickly when he stepped on the accelerator.

The Mccarthy family.

The arrival of Sylvie made Cassius Mccarthy very happy. He immediately ordered the kitchen in person, “Sabrina, cook more today! Miss Sylvie is back, cook more dishes that she loves!”

“Yes!” Sabrina was happy to hear that and took his order immediately.

Miss Sylvie, the second daughter of the Mccarthy family didn’t talk much but she respected all the servants. She never behave like a queen like the first daughter of the Mccarthy family, Miss Bonnie.

“Sylvie, how is your study lately?” Patriarch let her sit on the sofa.

“Well, it's all right!” She opened her mouth and wanted to call him Grandpa. But, she stopped to do so when the words reached her lips. She just raised her head and looked at him. His face was covered with wrinkles, every stripe was engraved with the vicissitudes of life.

This old man has gone through many trials and tribulations. He had experienced the pain of losing his son when he was old. No matter how strong he was, he was just an old man. Looking at him who was like that, her eyes were sore.

Perhaps family affection was just born in the bones and in the blood. It was an instinct. Yes, family affection was an instinct!

“Sylvie?” Cassius was a little surprised to see Sylvie staring at himself in a daze with crystal misty things gleaming in her eyes, “What's wrong, kid?”

The word “kid” made Sylvie’s heart tremble of a sudden. She took a deep breath and finally she called out the word which Cassius had longed for, “Grandpa!”

At that moment, Cassius looked stiff and then he nodded excitedly with a smile. “Hey, Sylvie, finally you are willing to call me grandpa?”

“Grandpa, I'm sorry!” Sylvie apologized in a low voice.

“Silly girl, why are you apologizing to me? Grandpa is the one who should apologize to you!” Cassius took Sylvie’s hand and patted it gently, “Grandpa is very happy, finally you are willing to call me grandpa and finally you admit that you are The Mccarthy family’s child!”

Sylvie was shocked to hear it. Indeed, she had never regarded herself as the real member of the Mccarthy family for the past four years. At the moment she shouted out the word ‘Grandpa’, it was her return to his affection and she had recognized him as her grandfather sincerely. It turned out that he always knew that she had never really regarded herself as a child of the Mccarthy family!

She didn't meet Bonnie on that day. It seemed like she was not at home. When they were having dinner, Sylvie sat beside Cassius and had the meal with her grandfather.

Cassius was very happy. Sabrina saw him eating meat all the time and reminded him, “Patriarch, the doctor won't let you eat so much meat!”

“Which doctor said that?” Cassius was obviously a stubborn old man who loved to eat meat, “It is human’s happiness to eat a bowl of meat for each meal!”

“But—”

“I'm happy today, I won't die if I eat a little of it!” His stubborn temper came up again.

Sabrina looked at Sylvie worriedly. Sylvie understood that Sabrina hoped that she could persuade her grandfather. At that instant, she also remembered the call she had received in Country N not long ago. He said that his life was running out and she never asked him what happened to him. As a granddaughter, she was really dereliction of duty. Even Sabrina cared about the health of her grandfather like that but what had she done?

Seeing that the old man had eaten several pieces of braised pork, Sylvie was feeling a little anxious, “Grandpa, you are old and it is dinner. Don't eat the meat, it is too greasy. It will cause difficulty for digestion and block blood vessels easily! Eat something bland!”

“Grandpa is happy today. It's rare that you have come back. It doesn't matter if I eat a little!”

“No!” Sylvie took the meat away directly and handed it to Sabrina, “Don't cook such a greasy dinner next time, cook according to the requirements stated by the health consultant!”

“Don't take it away, Sylvie, grandpa doesn't eat anymore. But you are so thin, come here and eat some! Eat more meat to gain weight.” Cassius shouted.

Sylvie was dumbfounded, “Grandpa, I'm just right, neither fat nor thin. I'll be with you, we don't eat meat at night. Reasonable diet, proper exercise, healthy and longevity!”

“Alright!” Cassius was both regretful and happy. Unfortunately, he couldn't eat meat openly while the happy thing was his granddaughter had returned home.
