Chapter 137 Only if she's happy
Wilson vaguely guessed that Daniel and Michael were coming.
The old man said, "Don't be absent at noon. There are important guests coming!"
"How important can an important guest be? Can the secretary of the provincial public security bureau come to our house as a guest?" Nancy muttered to herself.
Caitlin, who was beside her, immediately pulled her sleeve gently.
Han Nancy lowered her head and started to eat. She had been exhausted for the past few days.
Yes, the Scott Family had a big business and a great glory. However, the Old Master was in charge of it now, and the Scott Group was managed by Wilson. Their main branch could not get any benefit. They could only wait for the bonus at the end of the year every year. Just thinking about it made them feel so depressed.
However, no matter how dissatisfied he was, it could not change the fact that the Scott Family was now in charge of the old master and Wilson was in power.
At most, she could only complain in private. Today, Nancy was too tired to speak without thinking. Usually, she would never talk back to her grandfather.
The main branch's entire family felt wronged, but they didn't dare to say anything even though they were angry.
Mr. Scott glanced at Nancy and said, "Yes, he is the secretary of the provincial public security bureau!"
Except for Wilson, everyone else was shocked.
Han Nancy suddenly felt as if she had been slapped in the face in public. Her face was burning hot.
No one dared to miss the lunch.
A car with a white military license plate drove straight into the Scott's house.
Mr. Scott took the Scott Family to receive them in person.
The man on the left jumped out of the car first and helped Michael out. Then, Daniel came down.
Wilson looked at Michael and frowned slightly. Michael smiled at him.
"Nice to meet you, Michael! It's my honor to meet you in my humble house!" Mr. Scott smiled and stepped forward to shake hands with Daniel.
Everyone in the Scott Family welcomed him with a smile.
This kind of behavior was enough to show that the political figures in Metro were highly valued. Even the Scott Family, the most powerful family in J City, was extremely polite and respectful in front of Daniel. Seeing Daniel, Alina seemed to have understood something. He looked at Michael, who blinked at her.
It turned out that Michael was the son of Michael. However, as a God's favored son, how could he be an intern on the construction site?
Unable to figure it out, Alina decided not to think about it anymore.
Daniel smiled at her and said, "Girl, you're still angry. Why didn't you greet me when you saw me?"
Upon hearing Daniel's words, everyone in the Scott Family looked at Alina with a strange expression. Sophie was surprised. A woman like Alina was actually the goddaughter of the secretary of the provincial public security bureau? Seeing that Alina was in a daze, Michael immediately smiled and said, "Sis, it was my fault for causing you to be scolded by Dad last time."
Alina was even more shocked. What was going on?
Daniel smiled again. He took out a box from his pocket and handed it to Alina. With a kind expression, he said, "Little girl, treat this small gift as an apology from your sugar daddy. It was my fault for what happened last time." Michael immediately stepped forward and took the box. He stuffed it into Alina's hands and said, "Alright, alright, alright. There's no overnight feud in the family. Big sis doesn't blame dad anymore, right, big sis?" "Ah?" Alina was still in a state of shock after being forcibly stuffed into a small box by Michael.
Meanwhile, in the Scott Family, everyone looked at Alina with eyes that changed from time to time.
When did this happen? This woman was the goddaughter of the secretary of the provincial party committee, but why had she never mentioned it?
Mr. Scott also had some doubts, but he did not ask anything. Instead, he said enthusiastically, "Michael is our adopted father. Please, please!" Everyone moved to the Han Restaurant.
Caitlin and Selma were extremely jealous of Alina. Alina had no status at all, how could she be so lucky?
During the meal, Wilson and Michael looked at each other several times, but they couldn't see anything. Michael's eyes were extremely clear. He did not hide any conspiracy or ulterior motives at all. Wilson was not sure if he really had no interest in Lina, or if he had hidden his thoughts too deeply. However, none of this mattered.
No matter who it was, they all wanted to take Lina away from him.
Silvia curiously turned her pair of big black eyes. She looked at Michael, Daniel, and Alina.
Was this true? If it was true, then it seemed that even if her brother married Alina, his current status would not be shaken, right? She decided that she would tell this to Monica later and let her analyze it. Monica's brain was much better than hers.
Rainee and the others were very afraid of the sudden appearance of her god father. They all put on smiles on the table and dared not say anything, for fear that they would say something wrong and offend the master in front of them. The people in the political circle were in high positions and powerful. They were never in the same world as businessmen.
The project that a businessman had gone through great efforts to get might be lost because of a single sentence from a political person. The project was gone. The loss brought by his words was simply immeasurable.
No merchants were willing to offend political people.
Mr. Scott proposed that his grandson should toast Michael together. Everyone immediately picked up their glasses.
Seeing that everyone was holding their glasses, Daniel stood up politely and said with a smile, "I'll toast to you. Thank you for taking care of my girl."
After that, he looked at Alina and said, "Girl, remember to go home more often when you have time. In the future, when you hold a wedding ceremony and have children, I'm afraid that you will have less and less time to go home. You haven't gone back for so long. Your Godmother and grandparents miss you very much."
Alina bit her lip and braced herself to say, "Alright."
She really didn't know what had happened. She hadn't recognized her god father yet. Why did they look like they had acknowledged her as their god father for many years?
Michael said with a smile, "Sister, you and brother-in-law should be fine. I'm going back with Dad this time. I'm going to work. I probably won't come back to J City for a long time."
Alina's heart ached a little. Michael was about to leave J City, so before he left, he wanted her to recognize him as his god father and back him up? Was it because he was afraid that she wouldn't be able to take out her status and would be bullied by the Scott Family? Was that true?
All of a sudden, a sour feeling welled up in her heart. How could Michael treat her so well? She really didn't know how to repay him. She had to treat him as her own younger brother in the future.
Wilson's eyes flashed slightly. Michael was leaving J City? Was this the exchange between him and his father?
Sure enough, compared with Ken, such a rival in love was the most terrifying. Because he was willing to let go. And when a person could even let go of his favorite person, his bearing was enough to make the opponent afraid. There was a saying in the Buddhism: "When you get it, you are not far from losing it. When you give it up, you are not far from getting it."
Michael did not stay any longer. After eating and hinting that Lina was his precious adopted daughter, he left the Scott's house.
Michael originally wanted to take Morgan and Michael back to the provincial capital. However, Michael insisted on staying in the hospital for another week. Morgan stayed to take care of him.
After Michael left, Wilson asked Michael out.
The two of them sat in the cafe.
Wilson went straight to the point. "Did you deliberately arrange for Lina to conduct a legal procedure and receive the French delegation?"
Michael did not hide anything. "That's right!"
Wilson raised his eyebrows slightly. He didn't expect Michael to admit it so quickly.
"What do you want?" he asked again.
Michael smiled. "What are you worried about?"

Wilson shot an unfriendly look at Michael. "I'm not worried! I'm here to tell you that no matter what you want, you won't succeed. Alina is my wife. She won't change for the rest of her life!"
Michael was still smiling. "I'm very pleased to hear you say that. I'm not a businessman. I don't have as many gains and losses as you businessmen. I don't have so many schemes. My idea is very simple. I just want the person I like to be happy. I don't want her to be bullied by your Scott Family."
Wilson narrowed his eyes and looked at Michael. What he saw was still a pair of clear and open eyes.
He changed the topic and asked, "Are you leaving?"
Michael nodded. "Yes! I'm going to do what I should do."
"Have a safe journey!" Wilson said coldly.
"Thanks. Take good care of my sister!" Michael said as he got up and left. When he reached the door, he turned his head and smiled like a spring breeze. His tone was decisive and determined. "As I said before, if I see her unhappy, I will go all out to get her back!"
"I won't give you a chance!" Wilson smiled.
Two cups of coffee, a brief conversation, and several looks.
Wilson looked at Michael's back as he left. He picked up the coffee in front of him and took a sip. No one knew what he was thinking.
...
When Monica returned home, Harry called her to the study.
She asked for her opinion, "Hey, you've been back for a while. Are you still not interested in business?"
Monica nodded with a smile. "Yes, Dad. I'm really not interested in business."
Her mother had taught her this move, which was called retreat as an advantage. She wanted to do something, but she could refuse it first. In this way, she might get more chips. Of course, the premise was that the other party wanted her to do something.
Actually, as early as that day when she received an anonymous text message saying that the eldest daughter of the Adams family was still alive, she was eager to join the Adams family.
Even she had received such a text message. This matter would not be kept a secret for long. Once her father knew about this, he would definitely bring Miss Monica back.
At that time, she would not be the only one in the Adams family.
Given his father's righteous character, no matter what kind of person Miss Monica was, even if she was a useless person who could not do anything, his father would try his best to compensate her.
If the First Miss of the Adams family, who had been picked up, was an outstanding person, then her father might even hand over the Adams family to her. Therefore, he had to strike first.
Seeing that his daughter was still not interested in business, Harry advised, "Well, Monica, in the past, you said that you were not interested in business. I don't want to force you. I think that after you get married in the future, you can hand over the Adams family to your husband. However, in the past two days, I think you have a very unique understanding of business. So, I hope you can think about it carefully. After all, you should rest assured that the Adams family will be handed over to you."
Monica pouted. "But Dad, I'm really not interested in business. I'm only interested in clothing!"
Harry's eyes lit up, and he suggested, "Well, well, you can work in the Huo Enterprise's clothing department first. Let's try, shall we?"
