Nodding, Grant opened the door wider.
Upon entering the room, Roxanne and Lucian saw two sets of formal clothes neatly arranged on the couch. It was obvious that Grant and Winnie had prepared the clothes for tomorrow.
“Where are the children? Ah, I'm such a terrible grandfather!” Grant was extra attentive. He hurriedly poured them drinks and carefully carried the glasses over.
Following that, he turned around and went into the other room.
Winnie stared at Roxanne enviously. She was jealous of the confident way the latter carried herself.
If we're talking about family connections, it's obvious that my daughter, Yuliana, is more superior. She also has plenty of wealthy friends. I just don't understand why she's still a lowly tour guide and remain single. On the other hand, Yosef dated a well-to-do lady before, but their relationship did not worked out.
The more Winnie thought about it, the more intense her jealousy became. Despite that, she kept her emotions in check and maintained a pleasant smile on her face.
Soon, Grant came out of the room with several sets of clothing in his arms. “I feel bad that I can't afford more expensive clothing, but I hope you'll accept these gifts for the children!”
He came to a stop before Roxanne.
Furrowing her brows, Roxanne refused to accept the proffered gifts.
Lucian's expression grew a tad chilly. “These look a bit too small. Children tend to grow fast. I don't think they will fit them.”
Grant stood there awkwardly, at a loss for what to do.
