Chapter 225 Arranging The Engagement (1/1)

Victor had to drive home. It wasn't rush hour. But the traffic jam was common in S City. So he stopped on the bridge. When Victor returned home, he saw Adam and Connie sitting on the sofa, chatting happily with Karl and Connie. Teresa sat aside quietly and behaved well. Seeing that, Victor had an ominous premonition. He frowned in an instant.

When Grace turned her head to look at Victor, she waved at him and asked, ”What took you so long? Why are you still standing at the door? Come here quickly!”

”Hello, uncle, aunt,” Victor greeted courteously. Victor took a glance at Teresa, but immediately looked away.

”Now that Victor is back, let's get down to business.” After a short pause, Adam said, ”Everyone saw what happened on Christopher's birthday party. Teresa is a girl, and her reputation is very important! Since something like this has happened, why don't we ask Victor and Teresa to get engaged as soon as possible? ” Adam said as he stroked Teresa's hair affectionately. Hearing his words, Teresa lowered her head shyly.

”Yes, Teresa and Victor had engagement at the very beginning, but they haven't gotten engaged yet. Now that things had gone so far, it would be natural for us to put the engagement thing on the agenda! If Teresa and Victor get engaged, we'll become a family and help each other in business.” When Connie spoke of business on purpose, she wanted to put pressure on Grace.

Ever since Zed came back home and was arranged by Christopher to work in the company, Grace had been a little worried about Victor's status in the company. Seeing that Miranda and Connie were getting closer and closer to each other, Grace felt a strong sense of crisis. Grace was shocked by what Connie said. Grace quickly said, ”You're right. The two kids have already had their own engagement, and get engaged is just a matter of time. Put it on the agenda as soon as possible.” When Grace was speaking, she pulled Karl's sleeve.

Of course, Karl understood what his wife meant. Although he believed in Victor's ability and felt that Victor wouldn't be easily replaced by Zed, he knew clearly what Terence's family was thinking about. Terence was an ambitious man and Terence would be a disaster sooner or later. At this time, with the support of An family, it was the best to suppress Terence's ambition in the cradle. Besides, Teresa seemed to be deeply in love with Victor. It was fortunate for Victor to marry her!

Thinking of this, Karl nodded his head and replied, ”I've waited for a long time. It's a good thing to put it on the agenda. What do you think of the engagement ceremony? ”

Karl's attitude was a great comfort to Adam. He thought that Xiao family still held a sense of responsibility. He smiled and said, ”So, the An Group and the YS G

apple of my eye. I can't bear to see anyone bully her! If you are not responsible for her, I'll definitely make you pay for it, even at the expense of my company's power!” Seeing that Victor had made up his mind to refuse Teresa, Adam became angrier.

When Grace heard what Adam said, she panicked. She wondered, 'Is Adam trying to help Zed to deal with Victor?'? At that time, Victor's position in the company could not be saved. If they really let Zed got the YS Group, Karl's family would be trampled underfoot by Terence's family.

But the only way to get rid of the thought from Adam was to make Victor say sorry to An family and engaged with Teresa as soon as possible. However, Grace saw the firm look on Victor's face showed that he would never marry Teresa, she was afraid that Victor might say something rude to make Adam even angrier. Grace, who didn't know what to do, pulled at Karl's sleeve, hinting Karl to make a decision.

It never occurred to Karl that Victor would do something out of blue. Hence, Karl put on a sincere smile and said to Adam, ”Come on, take a sip of tea. Don't be mad. We all know that the reputation of a girl is the most important thing. We have promised that we will give Teresa an explanation and won't let Teresa be laughed at.”

”But from what I see, it's not the way Victor thinks! Are you sure you can call the shots for Victor? In the end, Victor would say something again like that it is you who made the decision, and he had never agreed to it! How can I just let my daughter marry into Xiao family for Victor's attitude! I am afraid that my daughter would be wronged after she married into Xiao family!” The anger of Adam hadn't dissipated yet. ”Victor, what's your answer? Should you be responsible for my daughter or not. If you insist on being irresponsible, I won't talk nonsense with you! ”
