Chapter 271
Spoiled by the President
The old lady looked over and revealed a displeased expression.
âWhy are you watching over me like Iâm a criminal? I just came out to take a picture.â
The middle-aged man could not help but frown at the words. âIf you wanted to see Chace Remington, I couldâve just sent someone to bring him into the hotel. Why do you have to come out here to see him? Youâre even secretly taking pictures of him? How humiliating do you think itâd be if others knew that the Old Madam of the great Griffin family did such a thing?â
The old lady got a little angry.
âWhat did I do? Not that I have broken any laws or have acted out of discipline, so why would it be humiliating? Besides, would it still be considered chasing after an idol if you called him over? Would I still be considered a fan?â
She huffed coldly. âForget it! I canât be bothered to argue with you since you wonât get it anyway. Youâre exactly the same as your stupid father. You donât know how to keep up with trends at all.â
The middle-aged manâs expression darkened slightly. âIf dad finds out that you ran outside to see Chace Remington, just wait and see what heâll do.â
The old ladyâs expression shifted.
âSo what if he finds out? You little brat, I gave birth to you and raised you in vain! Youâd rather help someone else instead of your own mother.â
She whacked him in exasperation.
The middle-aged man could not help but smile and softened his tone. âYes, yes, yes. Itâs my fault. I shouldnât have let your willfulness get the best of me and brought you here. Itâs our first time back to China after so many years and weâre not familiar with the environment, so Iâm worried that something might happen to you. If I werenât that concerned about your safety, I wouldnât be so worked up about it.â
âHmph!â
The old lady ignored him before she turned around and walked down the VIP channel while escorted by a group of bodyguards.
Nell did not understand what had just happened.
After returning home and taking a shower, she called Janet and after learning that she was doing well, she hung up the phone in satisfaction.
At this moment, in an antique private hotel.
As soon as Old Madam Griffin entered, she saw an old man sitting on the living room sofa with a gloomy face.
Her footsteps paused a fraction before she smiled and entered. âWhy are you still sitting here at this late hour? Have you had dinner yet?â
The old man ignored her as he sat there, sulking.
The old ladyâs heart thumped, thinking to herself, âDid he find out?â
She hurriedly pulled out her phone to message her son.
Two minutes later, she received a reply. The old man had found out in the room and he grew so angry, he got angina and did not have dinner!
So the old lady put away her phone. With a restrained expression on her face, she did not speak.
Silently, she went to the kitchen and had the maid prepare a meal before bringing it to him personally.
âHow could you skip dinner? Come, hurry up and eat!â
The man on the sofa grunted coldly as he turned his face away, refusing to eat.
The old lady suppressed the anger in her heart and continued to coax, âBe good. Your stomach will hurt again if you donât eat dinner. Donât be stubborn; eat quickly.â
âHmph, am I as stubborn as you? You ran out to see a random man in the middle of the night, and you even dared to let Charles take you there!
Youâre disregarding me more and more now.â
The old ladyâs expression changed.
âKeep your temper down. Endure.â
âYes, yes, yes. I was wrong. I shouldnât have gone to see him. Why donât you eat some food first?â
âI refuse!â
âJust a bite.â
âNo!â
Old Madam Griffin was speechless.
Hence she put the medicine on the table, then got up, turned around, and headed upstairs.
The old man on the couch was stunned. He quickly asked, âWhere are you going?â
The old lady snapped at him, âTo sleep! Wonât I be tired after having been outside the entire day?â
âBut I havenât eaten yet!â
âThen eat!â
The old manâs expression shifted again and again...
In the end, his expression settled on aggrieved and his eyes grew slightly red. âYou promised me that you wouldnât see that man again!â
Once again, Old Madam Griffin was speechless.
However, his aggrieved appearance immediately made her heart soften.
She went forward to coax him. âAlright, alright. Iâve said that I was wrong. I was just bored at home and wanted to go out for a walk. It was a coincidence that I ended up there. It wasnât on purpose.â
âIf you were bored, you could have gone out with me. Why didnât you take me along? Hmph, you just wanted to see that darn man!â
âI...â The old ladyâs head started to hurt.
She suddenly thought of something and said mysteriously, âActually, I really didnât go there to see Lil Chacey...â
âWhy are you calling him Lil Chacey?!â The old man was furious.
Old Madam Giffin hesitated.
âI didnât go out today to see Chace Remington. I went out to find a granddaughter-in-law for us.â
As expected, the old manâs attention instantly shifted at the mention of a granddaughter-in-law.
âGranddaughter-in-law?â
âThatâs right!â The Old Madam quickly pulled out her phone and found a picture.
âLook, isnât this girl very pretty? Iâm telling you, sheâs even prettier in person. In the future, the child she has with our Lee would be even prettier.â
Old Master Griffin looked at the photo for a while before he pouted. âSheâs not as pretty as you were when you were young.â
The old lady grew shy at the words. âOh pooh! I wasnât as pretty as her.â
âIn my heart, youâre the prettiest.â
At this time, Charles Griffin, who had just entered, heard their conversation and was caught off guard by the shudderingly cheesy words.
He had been worried that his mother would not be able to handle the old man, so he came here to have a look, but it seemed that his concerns were unwarranted.
When the Old Madam saw him, she quickly called out, âCharles, come here!â
All Charles could do now was walk over.
âLook. What do you think about this little lady?â
She raised her phone as she spoke.
After Charles had taken a look, he commented very pertinently, âSheâs very pretty.â
âShe is, isnât she?â The Old Madam beamed as if she was the one being praised. Her eyes sparkled. âHow about introducing her to Lee as a wife?â
Charlesâs eyebrows rose.
He found it a bit funny.
After all, the Old Madam and the Old Master were getting on in years. Although the Old Madam refused to admit her age and insisted on chasing after idols, she was not young anymore, and there were many things on the Internet which she did not know.
He looked at the two elderly with a vague smile and asked, âDo you really take a fancy to her?â
âYes!â The old lady perked up, staring at the photo. She felt satisfied no matter how much she looked at it.
âI do think sheâs quite good-looking. I encountered her, and her personality is good too. Besides, since Lee doesnât like to talk, her lively nature suits him. Theyâll complement each other well.â
Charlesâs smile deepened.

ï¤Chapter 487 The End Pt. 5 âAlright, I happen to know her, so Iâll introduce her to you guys someday.â
The Old Madam was startled.
Overjoyed, she said, âReally?â
âWhy would I lie? But just because Iâm fine with it, doesnât mean others would be fine too. When the time comes and you meet that kid from the Leith family, if he comes after you with a knife, donât say that I didnât remind you.â
The two elderly were stunned.
âThe kid from the Leith family? Do you mean Gideon Leith? Whatâs he got to do with this?â
âWhatâs he got to do with this? That little lady youâre talking about is his wife. Theyâre officially wedded with a certificate to prove it, but you want her to be your granddaughter-in-law. How could you say that he has nothing to do with this?â
Old Madam Griffin and Old Master Griffin were both speechless.
