Chapter 1017
When Alexander received the call from Margaret, he was in a meeting at the company.He needed to
report on establishing new projects and expansion ideas overseas.
Initially, he did not want to answer the call, but as he used his phone to read the data analysis, he had
no choice.
After declining the call, he quickly summed up his meeting and returned to the office to call her back.
On the phone, the old lady sounded aggressive.
"Where are you now?"
"I'm in the company."
It seemed like Margaret was in a bad mood.
"Come back right away! "You mean, now?"
"Yes, now!"

Before Alexander could refuse, Margaret immediately said, "If you don't bring her, I'll send someone to
pick her up myself! Is she unable to leave the house now that she's pregnant? As your grandmother, I
don't even get to meet her at least once?"
Alexander kept quiet for a moment and pursed his lips.He did not want to argue with her on the phone.
"Got it."
He guessed this sudden invitation was probably related to Heather.
Alexander did not know how Heather told Ralph and Margaret about the incident, but he could not be
bothered.
An hour later, Alexander's car slowly drove into the Russell Estate.
Margaret was already sitting in the living room with her walking stick firmly in her hand.She seemed like
she was ready for battle.
Ralph was by her side, whispering something that made her face turn even darker.
Meanwhile, Celine stood on the sidelines, smiling as if she were a bystander.
"Grandma," Alexander called out when he walked in.
After looking around, he asked, "What time is it now? Why aren't you taking a nap?"
"A nap?!"
Margaret raised an eyebrow.
"Are you hoping I will sleep forever and never wake up?!"
"You're being dramatic, Grandma."
"Dramatic? I won't dare to.Who would dare to act dramatically in front of the president of La Beauté
Group? I've only said a few words, and you already think I’m being dramatic.Then, why didn't you think
you've gone too far when you go around fighting another woman?"
‘Sure enough, that is the case!' Alexander raised his eyebrows.

"So, that's why I'm here."
"So, you admit it, then? You fought a woman!"
Ralph pounced at the chance.
Initially, he was still a little dubious when Heather told him about it.
After all, how could Alexander hurt her with her skills and ability? However, listening to what Alexander
said, it seemed like he was admitting to his crimes.
Regardless of how he did it, Heather was still Ralph's fiancee, and his nephew injured her before they
married.
If Ralph could not even protect his woman, where could he run to hide his face in shame?
"We just had a light sparring session.Grandma, if you think I've fought her, so be it,"
After a pause, Alexander added, "However, Ms.Riggs fought back as well."
Hearing this, Margaret almost choked on her breath.
"How dare you speak like that?! She's a girl! How can she fight you? She's still your aunt at the end of
the day.Do you think it's reasonable for a nephew to fight his aunt? Go with your uncle right now, and
apologize to your aunt!"
