Chapter 669 The New Year’s Gift from Dexter

Picking up on the disgruntlement behind his words, Josie remarked, “Grandpa sounds upset.”

Dexter continued typing away on the keyboard, dealing with business matters. “Family ties run deep. It’s normal for him to be upset.”

“Grandpa is already at the age of the heavenly mandáte. His children are also in their old age. He probably doesn’t want to see this kind of situation happen in the family.” Josie carefully chose her words as she poured him a glass of water.

“Nobody ever wished for this.” Dexter looked up. “Yanis should have known that this day would come when he plotted against me with outsiders.”
