Chapter 128 Just A Misunderstanding

As soon as Lionel entered the kitchen, Josie came out with a bowl of medicine in her hand. Catching
sight of him, she asked concernedly, "how's the grandpa?"

His grandson nodded and replied, "Dr. Zhao has checked up on him. He said that his condition was not
so good. His trachea had swelled up and this time his blood pressure increased. It's probably a
cerebral hemorrhage."

She held his hand and comforted him, "don't worry. He will be fine."

If Amanda had been there, she would have been surprised to see the timid and bossy woman behave
like a obedient little girl.

Looking at her, he asked, "Are... Are you really willing to marry me?"

Josie smiled and said, "It's not the first time that I have known you. When can I play the game of
falsification?"

"I don't think it's fair to you. You deserve a better man." He then looked away, avoiding eye contact with
her.

When he saw the news, he was also shocked. He didn't expect that someone would stare at him and
Amanda for a long time.

He wanted to use the crisis public relations to remove the influence, but then the news from the Gu
family came. His grandfather passed out with the news, so he rushed over and to receive all the blame
from the Gu family.

But this blame was nothing compared to his grandpa who was lying on the bed, seriously injured. He
grew up with him, and his grandpa who was so close to him collapsed in bed because of him. His



grandpa's painstaking efforts and the future of the Gu family were all ruined by him. How he wished he
could lie on the bed in place of his grandpa.

"Lionel, we must get rid of the rumor as soon as possible." His father said in a serious tone.

He nodded and said, "I will hold a press conference and explain everything."

"No, not only that. We think it's time for you to declare your wedding." The father said calmly, "it's time
for you to get engaged to Josie."

Recalling his father's grief stricken face, Lionel felt complicated in his heart.

Seeing the struggle in his heart, Josie said frankly, "Lionel, we grew up together when we were
children, and we studied abroad together. We know each other well. What's more, the Gu family is in a
critical situation, and I will accompany you through it. The Xia family will be firmly united with the Gu
family, so you don't have to be afraid, but don't think too much about it."

Indeed, all the burden of the Gu family is on him. Once Mr. Bruce get sick, the Gu clan will soon
collapse because of fighting for fame and fortune. People will not gather together. At this time, the help
of the Xia clan is very important.

Josie took his hand and said, "Amanda is at the door."

"What did you say? "He asked in surprise.

"Amanda is at the door. You know what to do, right?" Josie raised her voice and said, "Don't be so
selfish. You should see clearly how the Gu family that you have supported has turned into. Don't be so
selfish to cut off all relations between you and your grandpa."

She then dragged him out of the house.



There was a profound hatred among the Gu family members of the Amanda. They hated her guts for
bringing the family into such a dangerous situation.

Someone even pointed at her and said, "Why do you still come here? Do you think the media are not
enough to follow our home?"

Then she shook her head, "No. I have something to talk to Lionel."

"Bah! What a slut!" They vomited on her.

Amanda ignored him as she was waiting for an answer from Lionel.

As soon as the man came out, he saw a group of people surrounding and scolding Amanda. Amanda
stood there, holding a small tree in her arms. She had stubbornness on her small face. She looked
pitiful, but she was stubborn in her attitude. Even if so many people cursed her, she didn't go.

"Well, what are you doing here? We have a lot of things to do." Josie said loudly.

When everyone turned around, they saw that the woman who was about to be a member of the Lionel
was walking towards them, arm in arm with the man. They immediately smiled and asked
enthusiastically, "Was the noise too loud that you were displeased? We should have driven her away
right now."

"It's not appropriate for you to behave like this. All the guests are our guests. The misunderstanding
has been cleared up. You should be careful. Well, you all should go inside. Amanda comes to look for
Lionel. Let's solve it here." Said Josie.

The members all went inside to show respect for Josie.

Amanda looked at Josie holding Lionel's arm intimately. It seemed that she didn't need to ask any
more, because the truth was in front of her eyes.



But Amanda was unwilling to accept the fact. She asked, "Lionel, is the news true?"

"What news?" "If what you want to know is our engagement, it's true. I will marry with Lionel."

Looking at Amanda, he said flatly, "you'd better go back. The An family must be busy now. "

"So, you don't deny it? Are you really going to get engaged to her? "

"Amanda, I don't have to deny it." "After all, it has been declared."

"The fact is that you are going to be engaged to her." Hearing this, Amanda's heart sank. She turned
around and said in a choked voice, "what happened? Is it because the Gu Group encountered a crisis,
so you are going to marry Josie? "

"It's very rude of you to do that to my wife. Do you take the Xia clan as an excuse just because I have
encountered a crisis? Since she is my wife, I have to treat her well." The man replied.

There was no emotions in his eyes, his words and his heart. He was as calm as a stranger.

"Then what do you define our relationship?" "I thought we could go through it together. No matter how
difficult it is, it won't be so hard for two people to be together. But why? Why do you have another
choice?"

"It's just a misunderstanding between us, so that's why the media misunderstanding. Such
misunderstanding will never happen again in the future. You take more care." As soon as he finished
his sentence, he turned around. Ashley followed him out of the room.

She used to dream it would be her home too, but now everything was impossible.

She wiped her face, which was already wet.



Was all this just a mistake in his eyes?

So, now all the misunderstandings were cleared up. He was going to be engaged, and they had
nothing to do with each other?

Amanda dried her tears with the back of her hand and got into the car. "Go home," she said to Kevin.

He then stepped on the gas and drove her home.
