Chapter 1648
After Edith left, Griffon put down the pen he was signing the documents with, elegantly stood up, grabbed his coat, and
instructed the driver to take him to Edward’s house.
As soon as his tall and upright figure entered the living room,
a plate flew towards him, but Griffon quickly dodged it.
The plate flew past him and smashed against the wall behind
him, instantly shattering into pieces…
Looking at the broken pieces on the floor and the messy living
room, Griffon raised an eyebrow.
He rarely came to Edward’s house, but in his memory, Edward’s house was always clean and tidy.
Now, there was no trace of cleanliness and orderliness
anywhere he looked. It was just like the doghouse Grace built
in the backyard.
Kate and Edward, who were still arguing with Preston, quickly put away their angry expressions when they saw Griffon and went to greet him.
“Griffon, why are you here?”
Griffon glanced at Preston, who had a resentful look on his
face.
“I have some business to discuss with him.”

Kate thought Griffon was here as Preston’s savior. Hearing Griffon‘ words, she breathed a sigh of relief. She didn’t want
Griffon to interfere in their affairs.
“Then you can talk in the study. I’ll make you some coffee…”
Griffon nodded slightly and gestured for Preston to come with
him.
Only a short while later, Kate knocked on the door while holding coffee.
“I don’t know what kind of coffee you like, so I picked one according to Preston’s taste. Try it, and if you don’t like it, I’l get you a different one.””
Facing the imposing Griffon, Kate spoke much more politely, as if Griffon were her son, showing a gentleness.
Although Griffon rarely ate casually outside, he politely picked up the coffee and took a sip in response to Kate’s enthusiasm.
For him, the taste was poor, but he still said politely, nodding
to Kate, “The coffee is not bad. Thank you.”
Upon hearing this, Kate’s gloomy mood instantly improved.
“Then you can drink coffee and talk. I’ll go order food.”

She didn’t want to cook herself, afraid that she would ruin the
food for Griffon. It was better to order from a hotel.
With Griffon present, she could go order food without
worrying about Preston’s objections. She couldn’t embarrass herself in front of the person in power.
Thinking this, Kate immediately turned around, but Griffon stopped her. “Kate, I need to talk to you about something.”
Kate turned back, feeling a bit surprised, and pointed at
herself. “Me?”
The man exuding indifference raised his cold gaze and
blinked his eyes gently. “Yes.”
Seeing something in his eyes, Kate glanced at Preston sitting next to her. It seemed that she was here to help this jerk.
After thinking for a moment, Kate still sat down opposite. him. She wanted to see how Griffon would convince her to
apologize to Harper.
After sitting down, Griffon looked at Preston, and with just a
glance, Preston understood and got up to give them some
space.
After Preston left the room, Griffon calmly turned his gaze Text © owned by NôvelDrama.Org.

to Kate. “Kate, you should be well aware that Ms. Duke is my wife’s sister, right?”
Kate thought Griffon would kindly persuade her, but she didn’t expect him to come straight to hold her accountable. Her heart skipped a beat.
She opened her mouth, wanting to find an excuse, but Griffon didn’t give her the chance. He coldly said, “You are my uncle’s wife, Ms. Duke is my wife’s sister. In my eyes, who is more. important, I don’t think I need to remind you, do I?”
Seeing Griffon being impolite, Kate maintained her gentle expression, but her tone turned cold. “Griffon, if you speak like this, you’re underestimating your uncle.”
Griffon smirked, a cold smile emerging from his lips. “Your knew that Ms. Duke is my wife’s sister, yet you went to her and said slanderous things. Doesn’t that mean you don’t take me seriously either?”
With a single mention of “Ms. Duke is his wife’s sister,”
Harper’s status and position were instantly elevated, making
Kate, who despised Harper for her lack of background, feel embarrassed.
