Seeing that Clara's face was so red, Russell knew she finally understood. Knowing that she was introverted and shy, he didn't ask any more questions.
He said, "Anyway, you must hurry up with this. You can't let Sean and Darren have the upper hand. You have to try harder when you go back home!"
"I will, Grandpa." Clara thought to herself, just went with what he said. However, as soon as the words came out, she felt a little sloppy, as if she was too unreserved.
While Russell didn’t think it that way, he thought that Clara is a good granddaughter-in-law, who is very filial and considerate.
Russell asked the servant to prepare a lot of supplements for her, including sea cucumber, velvet antler, donkey-hide gelatin, bird's nest...all kinds of nourishing food.
"Grandpa, how can I finish eating so many supplements?" Clara looked at a large bag of supplements. perplexed. With all these, could she even survive in bed with Horace?
Russell said, "Take it all back and eat it carefully every day!" He instructed the servant, "Go, take them to Clara's room and put them in the car when they leave."
Clara just wanted to cry. This big and prestigious family was very persistent in carrying on the family lineage.
Clara came out of the study and went upstairs to their room, but Sean suddenly appeared.
"What a coincidence." Clara greeted him with wary eyes.
Sean approached, stepped forward, and said, "My sister-in-law, I'm waiting for you."
"Waiting for me?"
"Yes." Sean said lightly with a meaningful smile, "Let's go to my study and have a good chat."
Clara frowned and didn't want to follow him, but after all, he was the elder brother, so she couldn't refuse. She had to bite the bullet and followed him to his study.
The furnishings in the study are very particular and there are many commercial books, which are beautifully bound. The desk is neatly placed, without a trace of dust, and two display screens are placed, showing that he is a person who likes the Internet.
Clara knew that Horace had been pretending to be disabled because he needs to guard against Sean. Horace was attacked ten years ago, which seemed to be related to Sean, so she was also very vigilant about him. She didn't know what he would say to her.
But Sean naturally engaged with her and said, "Sit down. Let's have a good talk."
He poured himself a glass of whiskey on ice and said to her, "What would you like to drink, coffee, wine, whiskey, or juice?"
"Juice is fine," Clara answered.
With a kind look on his face, Sean was very nice to Clara. If Horace had not told her to be careful with him, she would have been easily deceived by his kindness.
Sean suddenly changed the conversation, "Did you and Horace quarrel today? It seems that you guys didn't smile much at the party."
"No." Clara didn't want to tell or explain much to him much, so she said, "We didn't quarrel."
Sean glanced at her and felt that she didn't seem to be very open to him and she didn't seem to have a good impression of him.
