Chapter 8 - Mike and Peter

Matheo hurriedly said," No, No grandfather. I meant you could have discussed it slowly" in a nervous voice.

Listening to the reply of Matheo, Mike's suspicious thinking increased alot . After, his thinking went wild, and he smiled evilly as if he was going dig a hole for someone. After all, he was an old fox compared to Matheo. Mike was a bit more sly and scheming. So, he said to Matheo"I was going to say, but Peter got up and left me alone when I had just started the discussion and hadn't come back yet. I don't think he will be back, so I am returning home."

Matheo was so angry that his grandfather had to come back at that moment. He said "Oh, grandfather mom is calling me, I am hanging up" And cut the call before listening to his grandfather reply.

Here on the lawn, Mike was laughing with a sly and scheming look in his eyes. At that moment, when Mike didn't put away his look, Peter came back and looked at Mike and muttered"who is he going to dig a hole now?" with a confused tone.

Peter said "Mike, why are you laughing alone here?"

Mike replied, looking at Peter," Oh, you came earlier than I expected." 

Peter said:"I thought for a moment, then I thought, let me hear about all the things you are going to say and decide what to do."

After hearing Peter saying this, Mike immediately put away the joking look and got into a serious mood. Mike said" As I was saying, Master Flake said that Aria has a chart of the sky, and she is the only match for Matheo. And if he doesn't get married to Aria, he won't be getting married in this life. And believe me Peter, I am really ashamed and more anxious than you."

Peter was shocked as he had met Master Flake just a few months after Aria's birth and Master Flake had said to him that she was destined to be with the one who has a lone fate. He also said to him that his family shouldn't be too against it if the proposal came. He remembered it so clearly that when he asked,"when will the destined one come and how?"

Master Flake had replied"They will come to you when the time arises. Don't worry."

He had thought it was a prediction, the so-called destined one might not come so early, but what he had never expected was that the destined one in Master Flake's mouth turned out to be Mike, his brother's grandson. He slowly looked up at Mike's face and said" OK, let them meet each other, and they will decide if they are okay with it."

Mike said with a little anxious face," let's just decide ourselves."

Peter looked a little suspiciously at Mike and said" You haven't told Matheo about Aria and you came directly to ask for my granddaughter's hand" in an angry and impatient tone.

Mike replied,"No, Matheo has agreed to get married to her, but I am the one who is worried that Matheo will scare Aria and the little will be a little nervous."

Peter looked and said to Mike" HAHAHAHA, you don't have to be worried about that, My Aria has the blood of me. How can she be so scared? Truth to be told, among my six grandchildren, Aria is the most intelligent, business-minded and soft, cruel type. "As he is a grandfather, of course, he knows his granddaughter the most, because she spent all the weekend with him till now, and how can his favorite children be left out of his eyes. He had always collected first-hand information about Aria.

Peter slowly looked in the eyes of Mike and said in a serious voice," Actually Mike, I don't want to lie to you, I want Aria to join the family business and wanted her to be the groove's group heir. Her father, uncle and I had a discussion, and they had no problem with that. Now you can guess she is our darling."

Mike replied," Oh Peter, you don't have to be worried about that, you know my habit. I don't have a daughter or granddaughter so Aria will be my granddaughter and my daughter-in-law's daughter. As you know, Angella has also always wished for a daughter but couldn't get conceived for what reason? You also know this and, of course, you know the habit of Angella."

Peter remembered the reason why Angella had to suffer when she was pregnant, And his back was already full of cold sweat. He cleared his mind and said" I am not worried about others, but Matheo himself. I have heard that his character is too cold and has a very suffocating aura which even we as elderly can't handle. How can my twenty-year-old Aria handle him?"

Hearing Peter saying this, he remembered his grandson's face yesterday when he said yes and just before, when he was on the phone, Matheo was clearly nervous when he heard he didn't discuss further and wanted to come home. So he said with full of confidence "Don't worry about Matheo, I will say yes, and I am a little worried about Aria right now."

Peter said"Don't make evil plans against Aria, Otherwise our friendship is over," when he saw the same sly and cunning eyes in Mike. Mike said"No, how dare I make fun of Aria? I can't wait to pamper her" in smiling eyes that were full of pampering. After listening to Mike's promise, then only Peter believed that he would pamper Aria and he would do it.

Then Peter and Mike decide to call Matheo and Aria to the old house and then have some conversation. After the place was decided, Peter called John and asked him to bring Aria to the old house tomorrow. Peter said to Mike"You are not calling Matheo to inform him."

Mike replied with a confident voice,"No, he should be waiting for me in the old house right now". Then he laughed when he thought he would be able to see his grandson's face change today.

Peter looked at Mike and said"Oh, what I have heard about Matheo is that he is a workaholic and rarely comes to the old house." in a teasing voice.

Mike said" No, he will wait for me today, but whatever, let's meet tomorrow and have a launch together."

Peter said"sure". Mike replied"Okay, it's already dark, I will be going home now, bye future in-law" with a joking voice and started to walk toward the door. Peter said to him "Don't say it first, we won't have the result until tomorrow." 

Mike said "Okay, you just wait to accept Matheo, Goodbye" and went to the gate and opened the door to sit in the car. Then he said to the driver,"Let's go" with a smile on his face. Seeing his master's face full of a smile, the driver asked" I guess you have succeeded?"

Mike replied"Oh, if tomorrow everything goes well, ready to accept your red packet. Let's go around the city and go home." The driver was a little shocked and looked at his master's smile in the rear mirror. He immediately had an answer in his mind and started to go around the circle. They were near the house and his phone rang, which showed his daughter-in-law was calling him to ask when he would be back? He said to her"I am already at the gate. Is Matheo still there??

Angella replied"Yes dad," Mike said"Okay" and cut the call as he was already outside the door and went inside to the side rack to put his shoes on. After putting on the slippers, he went to the living room and saw that the whole family was there. His son was reading a book in one corner, his grandson was on the corner of the living room working on his laptop and he was sure his daughter-in-law was in the kitchen. Anthor looked up at his father and said" Dad, you came." After hearing Anthor's voice, Matheo also looked at his grandfather and Angella also came to the living room and said" Dad, you came." Mike said" yes, I am here". Matheo wanted to say something, but before he could say something, his grandfather said"I am a little hungry. Let's have dinner first," and looked at Angella with blinking eyes.
