Chapter 388 Xanthea pulled his hand away forcefully. "You just sald we would be right here. What does that mean?" Orion glanced ahead, "Serene Retreat House." Wasn't that the famous Lockwood Estate? She felt a panic in her heart. "You-you're not takingto meet your grandfather, are you?" "Mm-hmm." "What? Why didn't you tellearlier? I'm not prepared at all!" "Don't worry."

too in "But this is what you prepared, not me. Isn't it insincere?" "What's mine is yours, Xannie." "That's not the point. Even if the gift is ready, I'm not ready!" She had it all planned out in her head. Meeting his family deserved a carefully chosen gift and a soft, elegant dress to leave the best impression. Now, Phoenix's dressing style was a disaster! Orion chuckled and kissed her forehead. “Even an ugly duckling has to meet the in-laws." "Who's the ugly one here?" "Alright, let's show Grandpa what a beautiful swan I've brought him." "Smooth talker! You didn't even givetto dress up. How can I look pretty in this? The first impression is going to be terrible." First impression? Orion mised an eyebrow slightly, as if recalling something. The first impression was good, adorable even." "What?" "Boss, we've arrived."

They were already addressing her as the mistress of the house. What was she supposed to call Chairman Theodore later? Chairman Lockwood, or Grandpa? The housekeeper led them inside. The villa was quiet, their footsteps echoing as they headed towards the study.

"Master, the young master and young mistress have arrived." "Let them in quickly."

A deep, resonant voice beckoned from within. The housekeeper opened the door, and Xanthea saw an elegant, spirited old man. Om Although he was already in his twilight years, his short hair was still lustrous, and he wielded the brush with ease. His eyes and demeanor bore a striking resemblance to Orion, like a fine wine that had aged to perfection. Wow, he was still so dashing at such an old age? When Orion grows old in the future, will he also be a handsold man? She stole a glance at him as Orion took her hand. "Grandpa." Theodore looked up. When he saw Xanthea, he stunned for a moment, as if seeing through her to a memory from decades past.

Xanthea felt a little overwhelmed by his long and thoughtful gaze. When ΟΠ she was hesitating Whether to call him Chairman Lockwood or Grandpa, she blurted out, “Hi, Grandpa Lockwood!" Orion's eyebrows lightly moved, and Theodore set down his pen, ging warmly. “Xan, you're here.” "Ori, leave us. I have sthings to talk to Xan
