Everyone present was taken aback by Serena's comment.

Even the bodyguards in the corner of the room, dressed in suits, looked at Serena with incredulous eyes, their faces pale.

This girl was bold and would probably have angered Mr. Angelo with such an absurd request. Then everyone present looked at Mr. Angelo.

Angelo was really furious about his comment, his face was full of anger, and he pointed his finger at Serena,

-What did you say? Don't you dare say it again.

Serena gave a sweet smile, "Grandpa, a moment ago you said you could fulfill all my requests, isn't Cristian as important to you as the Calligaris family? In that case, I'm not going to break up with him, after all for me, even if he gave me the family and begged me to leave him, I wouldn't.

Angelo was surprised by Serena's words; he did not expect her not to leave Cristian even if he gave her Calligaris' family in return.

But were Serena's words true?

-In any case, whether you accept this check or not, I will not accept your absurd demand, and if the money I gave you is not enough, I can give you more, but you will leave when you get my money! Serena stood still; she had been explaining herself to Angelo for so long that she suddenly felt a little tired. Serena wondered how long it would be before Cristian arrived. Since Angelo was Cristian's grandfather, Serena was reluctant to abuse him with abject language, but she was tired of verbal circumlocutions. And it was obvious that Angelo was not joking with her.

Serena inwardly sighed and said in a serious and grave tone.

-Grandpa Angelo, whatever you want in return, I will not leave Cristian.

Hearing what Serena said, Angelo narrowed his eyes and glared at her.

-I didn't think you would do things this way.

At those words, Serena nervously locked her eyes with Angelo's and thought to herself, "Will Angelo show his hands? Doesn't he have fun with her anymore?"

In this case, Serena was also about to say what was really on her mind. But no sooner had Serena had the idea than she heard a man speaking at the door. -Grandfather, why are you giving her such a hard time?

Hearing this familiar, deep voice, Serena instantly lit up and shook her head back toward the door.

Cristian was standing in the doorway of the secretary's office, dressed in a simple suit from which a quiet hormone emanated. He scanned the secretary's office with icy eyes before approaching Serena, who was about to shout his name when he grabbed her wrist and pulled her back.

-I'm the one who courted her, Grandpa, and if you have to blame someone, then blame me.

Cristian's sudden appearance made Angelo's anger burn even more, and he looked with dismay at Cristian and Serena behind him and said.

-It's not time to go to work yet, did you come for this woman earlier? Did she call you while I was making tea?

Serena, who was standing behind Cristian, felt offended because during that time she had really only gone to tea in earnest and had done nothing else. Because Serena was not the kind of woman who only sought her husband's help when she was in trouble.

After all, the issue was too complicated, and one reason was that she did not want to involve Cristian in it, because what she and Mr. Angelo knew, Cristian might not know.

Another reason was that Mr. Angelo already disliked her, and if she had called Cristian for help, Angelo's impression of her would probably have been even worse. So whatever difficulties Serena had encountered in this office this morning, she would not have called Cristian.

But why had Cristian come so early?

-Grandfather, Serena is not such a fragile girl." Just as Serena wondered, Cristian explained.

-I imagined you would come to the office, I didn't see you this morning and assumed you came to the office, and to my surprise, I was right.

Angelo was a little embarrassed by Cristian's blunt assertion of the truth, but responded angrily nonetheless.

-So what? What did you tell me about what I asked you last night? Have you forgotten? There are things you don't want to do, so I, as your grandfather, have the right to do them for you. Cristian heard these words and felt nothing but a headache.

-Grandpa, please come home! I will take care of this matter myself.

-How do you want to handle this? -Angelo looked at Serena with an unfriendly face, -Your way of dealing with it is to continue to keep this woman here?

Cristian's face was expressionless,

-She is an employee of the company, of course she stays here.

Angelo did not get the answer he wanted and shouted angrily.

-Do you know what you are doing? Have you forgotten what I told you? You have to fire her immediately.

As soon as Cristian appeared, Angelo's emotions seemed to spiral out of control and Serena became a little worried as she listened to the discussion between the two. After all, Angelo was Cristian's grandfather and had saved his life; Serena was grateful to Angelo and had great respect for him.

Then Serena pulled Cristian's sleeve, and Cristian, sensing her gesture, curbed his anger and looked at Angelo.

-Grandfather, Serena is an employee of the company and I will decide for myself whether to fire her. If you think my decisions are bad for the company, then you can take back the rights I have over the company.

Cristian's words left Angelo uncertain how to respond.

-What are you saying?

Cristian grabbed Serena's wrist.

-Since you don't want to see Serena, I'll take her now.

With that, Cristian grabbed Serena and walked out of the secretary's office.

-Stop right there! -Angelo shouted, but Cristian was gone so quickly that they had disappeared through the door.

Domenico walked to the door, looked at her and said, "Mr. Cristian should have taken the girl to his office.

Angelo was even more shocked to hear the answer.

-How could he do such a thing?

-Because he does not want to see the girl, Mr. Cristian will have to take her away.

-Domenico, I did all these things for him.

But he wouldn't even accept my kindness and did all those disobedient things to me. And what he just said is a threat to me? I don't have an heir besides him. Dominic nodded sincerely.

-That's right, sir. It is true that you have no heir other than Cristian.

Why else would Angelo have been so eager to keep Cristian by his side?

Before Cristian's arrival, Angelo had managed all the Calligaris Group's affairs on his own, and he trusted no one, not even his own relatives.

Angelo did not know how to respond.
