Chapter 361 - I apologize
"Princess. Which father will hate his own child. I am proud of my daughter in law actually" he kissed her forehead.
"No way baby. How can I hate my own fiancée. She will kill me if I do" Scott kissed her cheek.
Except for Scott's family others are utterly shocked by what they have listened. Some have even pinched their arms under the table whether to check if they were dreaming. While some others looked around them just to realize that their fellow companions are effected just like them, even worse.
Sean who is enjoying the drama and sipping his red wine started to choke and cough. Meanwhile Sianna is under the heavy shock and she panicked as she saw Sean's expression.
He will surely vent out all his anger on her despite of the engagement they have to celebrate the next day. Well, for her it is not a celebration but a welcome door for hell and torture.
Second Elder froze and his eyes even didn't blink as he stared at her with heavy eyes….
It took some solid minutes for every person to digest the news. It is not a simple thing for their poor hearts to handle it. It is very well known that the paparazzi and the outside world were wrecking their heads to find about this mysterious CEO.
But who would have thought that it is Jean, the pampered daughter in law of the president of rivalry company. How will they even think in their wildest dreams that a hardcore rivals will be harmonious living in the same house.
It is a very open fact that Cyphers and INA are competing neck to neck in every aspect. Then how will people react to find out that the CEO'S of these companies are actually the sweet heart couple they are admired of.
It will be a huge chaos…
"So, that mysterious CEO is you. I didn't expect this" Sister Summers chuckled. With a mocking smirk plastered to her face she looked at her second brother. "Brother, Jean is the CEO of the company you admire most. You use to praise the CEO like anything right…..see, she is just sitting across you."
"Yes, uncle. I remember that you told me about how you wanted praise her if you meet her. It turns out to be the woman you mocked till now" her son continued.
Second Elder Summers sighed. He then looked at Jean who is looking innocent and cute like a small child, by the way she mingles with everyone no one can predict that she is actually the ruthless and cold queen of INA.
No matter what, he is still a huge fan of her. As now he understood his mistake he decided to apologize to her….his arrogance and ego got suppressed after this encounter.
Standing up, he looked at his elder brother and his sister whose faces are glowing with pride. He made his decision to welcome Jean with his open arms.
"Ms. Grey, I am sorry for how I talked. I realized my mistakes and stupidity. Hope you understand" he sincerely apologized.
Others looked at them with curiosity. They almost thought that Jean would not forgive him and continue her mockery but however she is not a type of person who will not forgive a person once he realize his mistake.
"Sir, I just wanted you to know that a book should not be judged by its cover. Actually I thought to stay quiet but when you called Scott foolish and selfish I was not able to maintain my indifferent self. I know that your intentions for this family has always been good and sincere."
"I understand your lack of confidence in me when you have not seen my actual self. There is nothing much to apologize" Jean smiled.
She knew the importance of unity in the family and she don't want to crack the relation this old people have been sharing. The stronger their bond will be the more peaceful a family can live on.
Sean and his father were enough for Scott to handle so she didn't wanted to add other member to rebel group..
Others almost gaped at Jean at this unpredictable reaction. At first her voice is soft and innocent, then later it turned cold and chilly. But now she is polite and respectful…it amazed them. But again, they couldn't deny that this is very important factor for her to rule the family empire…..a sense of time and situation.
Scott smiled at Jean as he understood her thoughts. She might be still a little bit angry on the elder but she opted to compromise for family peace.
"Big Brother, my family and branch families have no any objections with Scott and Jean. We are very pleased and also happy with this couple. Scott, there is no need to pressurize yourself from my side because I will not let any mishaps happen." He smiled.
"Jean, I am very proud of you girl. I really hope you should be happy like this" he patted her head.
Others can clearly see the abrupt change in this prideful person. At last they sighed in relief that the family didn't crack into two parts just like other families.
"Thank you sir" Jean smiled back.
"No Jean. I will be delighted if you call me grandfather, and I don't mean this only because I found your real 'you'. But also because I realized something very important. Thank you for helping me to open my eyes" he sincerely told.
Jean nodded her head and others toasted for new couple who will be successors of Elder and Madam Summer's.
But Sean is extremely disappointed and is also drowning in jealousy. Why the hell should Scott always get everything…
He fumed with anger and soaked in jealousy as he dragged Sianna to vent out his anger. He is yet to realize that he is the only last target of Scott in this family.
