Zack was stunned. "It's ... Mrs. Callahan. I heard that when she and Miss Callahan were visiting downstairs, Miss Buckner happened to bump into them and offended Mrs. Callahan, so she did it. "
Anthony frowned when he heard it was his grandma who did it.
Jaqueline offended Grandma? He was afraid it was fake. The fundamental reason was that he delayed work during this time. Grandma already knew about Jaqueline's existence, so how could she bear this?
She had beaten her.
Well, he did it wrong first.
He wanted to check on Jaqueline's situation, but before he could go out, Paloma stepped into the office first.
Next to her was Rebecca, and next to her was Mavis.
When his eyes fell on Mavis, his eyes darkened a little, and his face remained calm, "Grandma, sit down."
Turning his head, he saw Mavis had already sat down and she looked very conscientious, so he took back what he wanted to say.
Mavis sat down for a reason.
After being pregnant, she always felt that her body was very heavy. Especially after strolling downstairs for so long, she already felt exhausted.
Anthony didn't know anything about it, so he ordered three cups of coffee.
Mavis said, "Just give me a glass of water."
She felt a little nauseous in her stomach, and she had to drink a sip of water to suppress it.
Otherwise, if morning sickness occurred in a while, she was afraid that everyone present will know about it.
It was just a small episode of drinking water, so no one particularly cared about it.
In the office, the atmosphere was extremely depressing.
Although no one spoke, Paloma's breath of displeasure drifted away, and her cloudy eyes stared at Anthony.
Rebecca, who had always been talkative, remained silent, and sat beside her silently drinking coffee as a transparent person.
After a few minutes, Anthony was the first to ask, "Grandma, why didn't you let me know before you came?"
Paloma snorted coldly, "I want to tell you, but now you are full of outsiders' affairs. Do I have a chance to tell you?"
"Grandma, you misunderstood..."
"Isn't it obvious what I mean? The Callahan Group is now your domain. You should get the news quickly. You must have heard about what happened downstairs just now, right?"
Facing Paloma's questioning, Anthony lowered his eyes silently and did not speak.
"Let me tell you, as long as I'm here, this family must not be messed up. At worst... at worst, I don't want you as my grandson, but many things must be clearly explained to me. Our family really can't afford to be ashamed!"
She had said all this, so Anthony can only express his position. "Grandma, Jaqueline is actually very poor. She is not what you imagined."
He paused, then looked sideways at Mavis. "You are also responsible for this."
Mavis froze.
Paloma didn't like Jaqueline. What did it have to do with her?
"What do you mean?"
She reacted for a long time, and suddenly understood, "Do you think that today's incident is because I encouraged grandma to do so? It's all my fault?"
Anthony did not answer this question, but said solemnly, "Mavis, I promise to Jaqueline's deceased relatives that I will take good care of her. If you target her, you are against me."
"Anthony!"
Paloma couldn't stand it anymore, so she patted the table and stood up.
Looking at Anthony's handsome and extraordinary face and those jewel-like blue enchanting eyes, she suddenly felt that her grandson, who used to be very pleasing to the eye, suddenly became a pretentious person.
He was doing stupid things for a woman.
Take good care of her?
To put it nicely, what kind of care was considered?
Did he want to marry her and serve her every day?
