Son-In-Law Gets an Upgrade novel Chapter 922

Chapter 922 The Promise 

Upon hearing that, Maggie could not help but panic. She could tell Lydia was clearly interested in Alex during the birthday banquet. 

Maggie, being perceptive as she was, could sense Lydia’s feelings for the man despite how subtle the signs 

were. 

What surprised her more was the realization that Alex had made a promise to Lydia. This revelation left. Maggie conflicted. 

Normally, Maggie would strategize how to handle other women competing for Alex’s attention. However, Lydia was someone she had known since childhood, and their bond was akin to that of sisters. Maggie dreaded the thought of their relationship deteriorating due to their shared interest in Alex. 

Giles also started to worry about his young granddaughter, who still behaved immaturely. When Alex and Maggie returned to Nebula City previously, Lydia wanted to tag along. In the end, he had to step in to stop 

her. 

The girl became moody ever since Alex and Maggie left, and she had even absentmindedly written Alex’s name on her book when she was in class. 

Giles, being an astute old man, knew what was going through his granddaughter’s mind, but there was nothing much he could do about it. 

If Lydia were to make any unreasonable demands, Alex would find himself in a quandary because a man of integrity like him would feel compelled to honor his promise. 

Richard, on the other hand, would certainly express his disapproval and criticize Lydia for being immature and making inappropriate demands. Moreover, such a situation could also affect the relationship between the two families. 

Giles whispered a prayer in his heart. Lydia, you better not utter anything foolish! 

As the tension in the air grew, Lydia extended her hand and firmly grasped Alex’s. Giles grew increasingly concerned upon seeing her action. Is she really going to do something stupid? 

“What I 

Instinctively, Alex tried to free his hand from her grip, but before he could do so, she spoke up. want you to do is simple. I want you to live happily ever after with Maggie and never let her down. Otherwise, I won’t let you off easily!” 

With that, Lydia grabbed Maggie’s hand and placed it in Alex’s before retracting her own hand. 

“Thank you, Lydia.” Relieved, Maggie held Alex’s hand tightly and expressed her gratitude to Lydia from the bottom of her heart. 

Initially, Alex was rather nervous because he perceived Lydia as a headstrong individual who would go to great lengths to achieve her desires. He did not anticipate her to show such sensibility and thoughtfulness in this situation. 

“I assure you, I’ll fulfill your request. I’ll still treat Maggie with utmost care even if you don’t tell me to,” Alex replied affirmatively. 

Those resolute words from Alex stirred a sense of melancholy within Lydia. She could not help but feel envious of Maggie, wishing deep down that Alex would treat her in the same manner. 

The Promise 

Her grandfather had once told her he would give her anything she desired in this world. How Lydia wished she could tell him that there was nothing she had desired more than to be with Alex.
