“He’s not the one, Grandpa. But you should be happy that House of Faust now has an heir.”
Albert responded, “To become an heir of House of Faust, one must be as capable as you are to earn my approval.”
Scarlett chuckled “Grandpa, my son will certainly be even smarter than me.”
“Thope so. Then Tean truly rest easy in heaven,” Albert joked.
However, Scarlett got angry. “Hey, if you keep talking like that, I won’t speak to you for a year.
He was the only family she had left in the world.
“Letty, death is inevitable at my age. Why are you getting upset? Go rest up. By the way, I heard from Ivan that you’ve been bedridden at House of Forde for a month, completely cut off from the outside world.

Scarlett had the same intention. She needed to deal with the shameless couple.
Her family background was known only to the Miller family, so the entanglement with z would continue for a while.
“I’ll fulfill my promise, Grandpa. I’ve already handled most of the core research for the new energy project. Once Treturn, I’ll work diligently.”
Albert’s tone turned serious. “Many will be envious and hostile of your return this time. Stay safe. Wait for me to come back!!

Her gaze made Scarlett seem like a jilted partner. “I’m not leaving anymore. I’ve returned to the company and will officially take on my role in a few days,” Scarlett reassured her “That’s great! I’ll pack these new styles for you to take home”
Cindy’s delicate face broke into a radiant smile. With Scarlett back, she wouldn’t have to stay cooped up here anymore.

Scarlett had anticipated this. “Come pick me up in three days. From now on, you and Charles will be by my side, while Sophia and Liam will serve as me secret gands.”
