Chapter 659 - A Fathers Love
Chapter 659 - A Father's Love
The atmosphere in the Allen family's dining room was tense in the morning. After this morning, the host put his hand on his wife's face last night, the two of them were not talking. The husband and wife did not even want to sit close to each other while eating.
Giselle was not aware of the cold war at first, until finally the father who had not finished eating immediately got up from his chair and left the dining table.
"What's wrong with Daddy, Mom?" Giselle asked in confusion.
"Ignore your Daddy, he seems to have a lot on his mind," replied Esme, Allen's wife, as gracefully as ever.
Giselle wiped her lips with a handkerchief. "But Daddy's not usually like that despite the work, Mom."
Emse was gentle on her only daughter. "Later on when you get married, you will know how real married life is. What is clear is we are fine and Mommy will support whatever you want to do, dear."
Giselle chuckled. "I love you, Mom."
"I love you too, my baby," Esme Allen said quickly.
Esme had always spoiled Giselle since she was little. She would grant whatever her daughter wanted. Esme and Brandon Allen took more than 10 years to have Giselle. At first, Esme and Brandon were pessimistic about being able to conceive after their fifth year of marriage, because at that time Esme was told not to be able to get pregnant, so they decided to adopt a baby from a hospital and named Gigi Allen. When Gigi was 5 years old, Esme miraculously got pregnant and Giselle was born. That was why Esme and Brandon pampered Giselle so much, especially Esme, who granted all of Giselle's wishes. So that Giselle finally grew up to be a selfish girl. All her requests must be obeyed, even if it didn't make sense sometimes.
Because the mother didn't say anything else, Giselle then continued to eat her breakfast with enthusiasm. Today she planned to meet with one of her school friends to discuss the reunion which would certainly be very fun because at the reunion she could meet Jack who she hadn't seen for over 6 months, after she was fired from Muller Finance International.
"I'll be home late, Mom," Giselle said softly, wiping her lips with a napkin.
"Is there an important meeting?"
Giselle shook her head. "Today I will meet with school friends to discuss the reunion that will be held next week, so I will probably be home late."
"Take Frederick, isn't he your schoolmate?" said Brandon Allen suddenly interrupting Giselle's words.
"No, this isn't a reunion for Frederick's class. Moreover, at school Frederick was very annoying, so he wasn't invited," said Giselle quickly.
"Why is that?"
"Ah Daddy, you don't understand. Okay, I'll explain later. For now I have to go to the office to finish all my work, before meeting with my friends," Giselle answered quickly and hurriedly left her father and mother.
After the car carrying his daughter left, Brandon Allen went out. He still didn't want to talk to his wife. The man was still annoyed with his wife who had the crazy idea of ??asking Anne for permission to let her husband marry Giselle. Because he loved his daughter so much, Brandon decided to go to Muller Finance International. He had to talk to Jack one-on-one.
Brandon didn't want his daughter's fate to end up like Sophia Higgins and her parents. Without anyone knowing, apparently Brandon had already found out about Sophia Higgins, Jack's ex-fiancé, who was a pianist. Because he had many relationships, Brandon finally knew what happened to Sophia Higgins at the moment. Brandon knew what caused Sophia Higgins and her parents to move to a remote village in Germany. Brandon didn't want his daughter's fate to be similar to Sophia's for daring to interfere with the household of Jackson Patrick Muller, who was now known as Jackson Knight Clarke, his family's real name. Brandon Allen who already knew the power of the Clarke family, was very afraid that his only daughter would be destroyed, because she tried to disturb the peace of the heir to the most powerful family in Luxembourg. Therefore, the white-haired man tried to talk to Jack, he had to leave everything to Jack. Brandon Allen wanted to save his daughter from destruction.
After driving his own car for almost 45 minutes, Brandon Allen finally arrived at Muller Finance International. The man who owned the cosmetics company felt a little nervous when he stepped into Jack's big office. But because he remembered his goal, the man finally decided to venture up to meet Jack. At first, the man had difficulty meeting Jack. But after he mentioned that he was the father of Jack's former private secretary, the receptionists finally gave him permission to go up to the 41st floor to meet Jack, after they spoke with Erick.
While in the elevator, Brandon felt more and more nervous. Being in such a stately office made him feel even more insecure. Even though his company was not a small company, he still felt that he was not worthy of Jack, who had more power than him, especially when Jack was the same age as his daughter. It really took a great deal of courage to walk into that office and Brandon did it for his daughter.
"Welcome, Mr. Allen," said Erick loudly enough to Brandon Allen who had just come out of the elevator.
Realizing that his arrival had been awaited, Brandon extended his hand to Erick who was currently doing the same thing to him. "Thank you."
"Please sit for a moment, Mr. Jack is still on the road. He will be here in a minute," Erick said softly as he pointed his hand to a sofa not far from where they were standing at the moment.
Without saying much, Brandon followed Erick's directions to sit on the large and comfortable sofa, waiting for Jack to arrive, as he was on his way to the office from the hospital. Jack apparently was taking Anne for a check-up. Even though Anne's routine check-up schedule was still three days away, but Jack, who couldn't wait to meet his daughter, finally changed Anne's monthly routine check-up schedule to this morning. Well, after all, who could stop Jack when he was already spoken, right?
Because he was on the top floor, Brandon Allen could hear the noise from the helicopter blades that had just landed on the rooftop of the building. The man spontaneously raised his face to look up to make sure his hearing wasn't wrong.
"Looks like Mr. Jack has arrive, , sir," said Erick kindly.
"What do you mean?" Brandon Allen asked in confusion.
Eric smiled. "The helicopter above, it was the helicopter that brought Mr. Jack and his family to the office."
"W-what???"
