Chapter 85: Meeting The Grandfather
"Master, these are the young madam’s details." Elijah Frost threw a sharp glance at his butler’s words and reprimanded," Don’t go around giving titles to those of no consequence."
The butler remained silent, merely passing the details to his master. Though Elijah Frost may have disapproved, the undeniable truth was that Demetri Frost had indeed wedded the young woman, binding them in legal matrimony.
Elijah Frost’s disapproval was palpable, but the legal documents and undeniable truth left him with little recourse. Demetri had really decided to all out rebel. He even went ahead and married a young girl almost half his age.
As he read through the details, he could only shake his head. The girl worked in a cafe! Could his grandson have been more cliche? He’d gone and picked up a waitress to wed. "I offered him diamonds but he opted for a lump of coal!"
The more he read about her the more disdain he felt. "This file is incomplete. There are no pictures of the girl."
"Master, the young lady was recently being stalked. As a result, the young master increased his vigilance and we had to stop the investigation lest he be alerted.
Elijah Frost nodded thoughtfully as he read the report. He was a man of the world. What trick had he not seen in the world as he climbed higher and higher up the social ladder? The girl must have pretended to be pitiful and miserable, winning over his grandson’s sympathy. Even though it astounded him that Demetri would fall for such an old trick, he guessed that every man had a downfall. The boy had been alone for so long so he must have succumbed to the beautiful woman.
But Elijah Frost knew how to get rid of gold diggers and protect his children and grandchildren. He had done it in the past and he would do it again.
"Arrange a meeting with this girl. It should be a coincidental meeting. Today" Elijah murmured the orders before leaving the room. The butler shook his head. No one would believe that Elijah Frost would simply run into his daughter-in-law. He just hoped that this would not create more trouble between the two masters.
