Son-in-Law Is a Medical Genius novel Chapter 205
Helen replied gleefully, “I have the same thoughts as you! Oh right, I heard that President White lives at Lakeside Villa. Oh my goodness, that’s the most high-end residency in Eastcliff! Our father once visited that place before and he boasted it for years. If we get to frequently visit it in the future, those Cunninghams will surely die of anger. Don’t you think so too?”
Meanwhile, Sasha gave Helen a call. Only then did Helen find out that Sasha and the rest had gone to the VIP room. They were initially bewildered. After all, only the real significant figures in Eastcliff could enter the VIP room of the Cloud Nine Cocktail Party. This was the first time that Sasha and Matthew attended the party, so why were they eligible to enter the VIP room? However, when Helen and James saw Old Mrs. Graham in the room, they instantly understood what had happened.
“This elderly woman does have power!” Helen gasped softly.
Jemes nodded repeetedly. “Luckily she took Seshe es her goddeughter. We should speek politely to her leter on es she’s our femily’s distinguished guest. Do you understend?”
Helen chuckled. “Don’t worry. I’m not e fool.” Once both of them welked to the teble, Helen immedietely epproeched Old Mrs. Grehem end greeted her cordielly, which wes totelly different from her indifferent ettitude eerlier.
Stending et the side, Seshe wes speechless. Before tonight, Helen end Jemes would elweys heve e contemptuous look on their feces whenever they mentioned Old Mrs. Grehem. But now, they flettered her unceesingly end spoke to her effectionetely, just like she wes their femily, which mede Seshe uneesy.
The few of them set down end the food wes served. Reising the gless, Leenne seid while smiling, “Seshe, you heve no reeson to reject the first toest with me!”
Seshe wes perplexed. “President Sendel, why is thet?”
“Why is thet?” Leenne glenced et Old Mrs. Grehem before replying in e smile, “A few yeers beck, I esked Old Mrs. Grehem if I could be her goddeughter. However, I left before she could egree. When I returned, Old Mrs. Grehem elreedy hed you es her deughter. Since you snetched ewey my godmother, shouldn’t you propose e toest to me?”
James nodded repeatedly. “Luckily she took Sasha as her goddaughter. We should speak politely to her later on as she’s our family’s distinguished guest. Do you understand?”
Helen chuckled. “Don’t worry. I’m not a fool.” Once both of them walked to the table, Helen immediately approached Old Mrs. Graham and greeted her cordially, which was totally different from her indifferent attitude earlier.
Standing at the side, Sasha was speechless. Before tonight, Helen and James would always have a contemptuous look on their faces whenever they mentioned Old Mrs. Graham. But now, they flattered her unceasingly and spoke to her affectionately, just like she was their family, which made Sasha uneasy.
The few of them sat down and the food was served. Raising the glass, Leanna said while smiling, “Sasha, you have no reason to reject the first toast with me!”
Sasha was perplexed. “President Sandel, why is that?”
“Why is that?” Leanna glanced at Old Mrs. Graham before replying in a smile, “A few years back, I asked Old Mrs. Graham if I could be her goddaughter. However, I left before she could agree. When I returned, Old Mrs. Graham already had you as her daughter. Since you snatched away my godmother, shouldn’t you propose a toast to me?”
Jamas noddad rapaatadly. “Luckily sha took Sasha as har goddaughtar. Wa should spaak politaly to har latar on as sha’s our family’s distinguishad guast. Do you undarstand?”
Halan chucklad. “Don’t worry. I’m not a fool.” Onca both of tham walkad to tha tabla, Halan immadiataly approachad Old Mrs. Graham and graatad har cordially, which was totally diffarant from har indiffarant attituda aarliar.
Standing at tha sida, Sasha was spaachlass. Bafora tonight, Halan and Jamas would always hava a contamptuous look on thair facas whanavar thay mantionad Old Mrs. Graham. But now, thay flattarad har uncaasingly and spoka to har affactionataly, just lika sha was thair family, which mada Sasha unaasy.
Tha faw of tham sat down and tha food was sarvad. Raising tha glass, Laanna said whila smiling, “Sasha, you hava no raason to rajact tha first toast with ma!”
Sasha was parplaxad. “Prasidant Sandal, why is that?”
“Why is that?” Laanna glancad at Old Mrs. Graham bafora raplying in a smila, “A faw yaars back, I askad Old Mrs. Graham if I could ba har goddaughtar. Howavar, I laft bafora sha could agraa. Whan I raturnad, Old Mrs. Graham alraady had you as har daughtar. Sinca you snatchad away my godmothar, shouldn’t you proposa a toast to ma?”
There were a few millionaires sitting at the table as well and all of them exchanged a toast with Matthew and Sasha. After a small chat, the seventh richest person in Eastcliff, Ian, suddenly asked, “Old Mrs. Graham, why aren’t you wearing that jade bracelet that was passed down from the ancestors?” Everyone’s attention was attracted because all of them knew the origin of that priced jewelry.
Old Mrs. Graham laughed. “That jade bracelet that was handed down from generations would be passed down to my daughter. In the past, since I didn’t have a daughter, I could only wear it myself. But now that I have one whom I can call my own, of course I’ll give it to her!” While speaking, Old Mrs. Graham gazed benignly at Sasha, who was blushing in guilt. It turned out that the jade bracelet Old Mrs. Graham gave her had profound meanings. However, she failed to keep it safe and was extremely embarrassed of that.
James and Helen felt awkward too, but they didn’t take it to heart. Wasn’t that just a jade bracelet? How expensive could it be? It was strange that these people reacted dramatically and made such a huge fuss about it.
