Chapter 821: Chapter 820: Standing Up for the Granddaughter-in-law (6)

The old master spoke with absolute decisiveness; neither the servants nor the butler dared to defy his orders and could only turn a pleading gaze toward Bella Acker.

Bella Acker felt a little troubled herself and pursed her lips, saying, "Old master, it’s dark now and raining. It might even snow later. Why not let President Sinclair come in first?"

"No way! Young Acker, that brat needs to be taught a lesson. Don’t go soft and plead for him." The old master turned his head, "What are you all standing around for? Hurry and bring Talia in." 𝘧𝓇ℯℴ𝓂

"Yes, Master." The old butler sighed helplessly in response and headed out.

"Old master, you..."

Bella Acker wanted to make another plea, but the old master interrupted her, "Young Acker, tonight you are to stay here with Talia and keep an old man company. Don’t bother about anything else."

Seeing the old master’s expression turn cold and grave, Bella Acker’s lips moved slightly, unsure of how to persuade him.

After a short while, the butler returned with Talia in his arms.

Bella Acker immediately stood up, moved forward, and reached out to take the little girl into her embrace, "Talia."

"Mommy." The little girl hugged her neck, confused, "Mommy, why isn’t Daddy allowed in? It’s so cold outside, Daddy used his coat to shield me from the rain and is only wearing one layer."

"Grandpa won’t let anyone in. Can you plead for Daddy?"

"Okay." The little girl nodded.

Bella Acker placed the little girl on the ground, watching her walk toward the old master, "Grandpa."

The old master saw the little girl, and his stern expression vanished instantly, his face breaking into a radiant smile, "Oh my gosh, my sweet darling, come let Grandpa give you a hug."

"Grandpa." The little girl walked forward, sensibly avoiding the old master’s bandaged leg, "Grandpa, have you missed Talia? Talia missed you very much."

"Miss, miss, grandpa thinks about our darling every single day." The old master immediately opened his arms to hug the little girl and gave her a big kiss on the cheek.

The little girl also held his face and "muma" kissed him, saying, "Grandpa, it’s really cold outside, Daddy’s only wearing one layer, can you let him come inside?"

"Talia, it’s not Grandpa bullying your Daddy; it’s your Daddy who bullied Mommy. Grandpa wants to stand by Mommy, you know?" The old master mimicked the little girl’s tone to explain.

"Daddy bullied Mommy?" The little girl tilted her head to look at Bella Acker, "Mommy, is it true?"

"No." Bella Acker patted the little girl’s hair top, "Old master, the rain outside is getting heavier, please let President Sinclair come in."

"No way, today no one can plead for him. He chose to stand outside in the rain, and if he can’t take it, he’ll naturally leave." The old master was resolute, showing some stubbornness.

The nearby butler couldn’t bear it, "Master, the outside temperature is already minus two degrees, and with the rain, Young Master Sterling is standing at the door in just a shirt. At this rate, he’ll catch ill from the cold."

"Well, he deserves it." The old master responded coldly, "Butler, take Young Acker and Talia to see their room."

"Master..."

The old butler wanted to speak further, but the old master turned and gave him a warning glance.

The old butler dared not say anything more and, with a sigh, lowered his head, "Ms. Acker, Little Miss, this way please."

The old master’s expression softened slightly, "Young Acker, you go ahead and show Talia to your room. I didn’t know what kind of arrangement you would like, so I made a simple setup."
