Chapter 422: 416: Open Struggle and Hidden Fight

“Hmm, Aunt, don’t worry, I have a plan.” Finn Lewis smiled and nodded. Old Man Ye’s birthday was not today but tomorrow. The old man didn’t plan to invite other people, so only his own children were in the house. Cypress Davis was the eldest son of the old man, so, Finn Lewis also met several children younger than Kay Lee.

Bringing Finn Lewis into the house, the old man was sitting on the sofa chatting with Kay Lee. Seeing Finn Lewis coming in, the old man smiled and said, “Come, Finn Lewis, sit down.”

“Thank you, Grandpa.” Finn Lewis nodded and followed the old man’s instruction, sitting directly on the sofa next to Kay Lee.

“Finn, what are you doing now?” After Finn Lewis sat down, the old man immediately asked with a laugh.

“I am still at school and haven’t graduated from university yet, but I have started my own game company and I’m starting my own business.” Finn Lewis replied honestly. Kay Lee, sitting next to him, was almost about to laugh. Finn’s attitude was rare. She had seen Finn face many famous people worldwide and wealthy people; Finn would never behave like he is now.

Just like a young man who just graduated, sitting timidly here, even his answers to questions were cautious, but the more Finn was like this, the sweeter Kay Lee felt in her heart because only then could she tell that Finn sincerely liked her, that he respected her family and that he was so nervous.

“Oh? The young ones are starting businesses at such a young age? You youngsters are really impressive, much better than us back then.” the old man said with a laugh.

“Grandpa, you’re joking. Your youth was different from ours. After all, your youth was a tumultuous era. If it weren’t for the world you built when you were young, we wouldn’t have such stable lives today.” Finn Lewis replied earnestly.

“Bootlicker.” An incongruous voice rang out, low but clear enough in the quiet house where everyone was attentively listening to the old man’s conversation with Finn Lewis.

Despite hearing it, Finn Lewis kept a smile on his face. On the other hand, the old man frowned and turned his gaze, “Wendy Davis, what kind of talk is that? Apologize!”

“Alright, I’m sorry.” The speaker was a beautiful girl, but she was young, probably just started high school, with a ponytail, she did bear some resemblance to Kay Lee.

“It doesn’t matter. People like Grandpa should indeed be flattered. What if Grandpa disapproves of Kay and I? I guess Kay would probably ignore me in the future.” Finn Lewis said with a smile.

As soon as Finn spoke, everyone in the room was taken aback. Apparently, no one expected Finn to say that. Even the old man was startled, but after a moment, he chuckled gleefully, then said, “Good job, brave and responsible. But if you want to marry my granddaughter, you need to work harder.”

“Rest assured, Grandpa, I’ll definitely work harder.” Finn Lewis responded promptly with a nod and a smile.

“That’s great, you are still young and youth implies infinite possibilities. I’m not academically inclined, having not read many books, but there’s a piece of advice I’d like to impart to you. Although you have started your business, don’t take money too seriously. When you have time, read more books and don’t neglect your academic knowledge. Money is just a material possession, it can always be earned again.” The old man said with a laugh.

Finn Lewis nodded earnestly and said, “Don’t worry, Grandpa. Most of my spare time is spent reading and trying to learn useful lessons. My grades at school haven’t slipped.”

The earlier speaker, Wendy Davis, muttered something more, but she was much more careful this time, and only she probably knew what she was saying. The old man just glanced at her and shook his head helplessly. It is said that there’s a special bond between grandparents and grandchildren. Wendy Davis was also the old man’s granddaughter, and he usually doted on her.

The old man chatted with Finn Lewis for a while, then someone else arrived at the house. It was probably an old comrade of the old man who had been dropped off. Naturally, everyone gave up the living room for the two old men. After serving them good tea, everyone left the living room.

Finn Lewis was no exception. When he came out, Cypress Davis walked straight over with a grim expression on his face and said, “You come with me.”

“What are you doing?” Before Finn Lewis could open his mouth, Kay Lee, who was standing next to him, stood in front of him, staring defiantly at Cypress Davis. The look on her face was indescribable. The chatter and laughter stopped abruptly. They had seen such scenes more than once before, and among the children of the Davis clan, Cypress Davis was the most promising. In addition, as the eldest, no one else dared to speak casually.

This was also a matter between father and daughter, so others couldn’t just interject. Anyway, there was an additional Finn Lewis this time around.

“I just want to talk to him. You are my daughter no matter if you’re unwilling or not, right? Since he wants to marry my daughter, it should be okay for me to talk to him?” Cypress Davis stuttered, then replied with a sullen face.

“Then that’s what you think.” Kay Lee retorted instantly, this was the first time Finn Lewis saw such emotions from her, stubbornness, defiance, the anger in her eyes was so obvious. On normal days, Kay Lee would behave like a lady of a distinguished family from ancient times, gentle and kind. But in front of Cypress Davis, she seemed to become a completely different person.

“Cypress Davis, I told you more than once, in my life, I will never with…” Kay Lee glared at Cypress Davis, pronouncing each word clearly, but her words were interrupted by Finn Lewis.
