I let out a smile as I heard his response, it was what I was expecting from him but it still made me feel like I was a fool. How had I not notice his attitude before, I must have been blind because he did not even make an attempt to hide it, I dropped the phone and decided to get ready for the day.

  I dressed up and drove to the hospital to see my grandfather while I sent a message to brother Jietang for us to meet for lunch at our usual spot. Entering the hospital room I saw that my grandfather was already dressed, 'Where are you going to and should you even be moving already?' I said as I held his hand to support him. 'The doctors said I am okay now and you know I cant stay idle for long. I have to go to the office, there is a lot of work waiting for me.'

  I supported him to seat on the bed and said, 'Give me a minute to talk to the doctors then I will drive you there.' I know it was futile to try and change his mind when its made up so the only thing I could do was try and work around his decision and make sure he dose not hurt himself. The doctor confirmed that he could leave the hospital but he has to take things easy for a while and not get too agitated. I assisted him as we walk out of the hospital while talking, 'Do you really have to go to work today, you can take this opportunity and rest up, I'm sure Mr. Lee can handle things for a while.'

  'Don't worry about me dear, I don't want any news getting out that I am sick as there are vultures everywhere waiting to prey on us. I have it all handled, why don't you tell me how your birthday went. What do you think of Jingsen and was he nice to you?' I smiled as soon as he said that because I know he has been waiting to know what happened. 'He was very nice to me and I think we would get along well in the future.' 'That's good my dear, I know its not want you envisioned but I want you to keep an open mind, all I want is for you to be happy. Lets just see how it goes but if it does not work out you don't have to force yourself, just let me know and I will take care of it.' He said while tapping my hand comfortingly and I smiled at this. 'I know you mean well grandpa and don't worry about me, I feel it may just work out.'

  We entered the car and I drove towards the office, 'Grandpa you may have to do something for me, I told brother Hanbing that you signed a contract with Han Jingsen's grandfather and if we breakup the engagement, we will lose the majority of our assets, can you help me make it look real and believable to him. I told him that so he would agree to the breakup.' There was silence in the car as soon as I said that and grandfather studied me for a while before replying, 'I know something must have happened but it seems like you don't want to tell me yet, I will not pressure you about it but don't worry I will handle it.' He took out his phone and sent a message probably to Mr. Lee, 'I know grandpa, don't worry I will come to you if i need to. By the way, I am want to intern in your company part time while schooling so I can learn from you and reduce your work load.'

  The story has been taken without consent; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.

  'I know you want me to focus on my studies but I promise you that I will not let it affect my grades but let me do this. If not I will not be able to focus and worry about you, also don't you want me to learn from you.' he let out a sigh and said, 'I understand, I will arrange everything.'

  I let out a smile and focused on driving. As we walked into the office my phone started vibrating because of different messages. Opening the message from Mei Mei I saw that she sent me a link with a happy emoji and a chat saying 'I am waiting for the full story from you.' Opening the link it led me to a news article showing me and Jingsen announcing the new power couple and the merger of two of the most powerful families in the country, I knew immediately that it was grandfathers doing. I switched my phone to silence after replying to Mei Mei.

  I worked for a while in the office with grandpa before giving him a kiss on the cheek and went straight to the restaurant for my launch date with Lu Jietang. Seeing me he ordered our regular and we ate in silence. 'Okay, we can talk now. What's going on with you?' He said as soon as we finished eating. I found brother Hanbing cheating on me with Ningyi after I rejected my grandfathers arrangement causing him to have a minor stroke from the stress. I decided to accept the engagement after that.'

  He paused to process what I said as he studied me before getting up and pulling me into his arms. 'I know you are hurt, you don't have to pretend to be strong in my presence, I am your elder brother and would fight the world if it decides to hurt you.' A lone tear fell and then I could not hold back the dam and broke down in tears in his arms, its a good thing we were in a private room or it would made the news again.
