Chapter 179: Unwanted Grandparents
Even though Amelia was sure she had never seen this elderly couple before, it wasn’t difficult to put two and two together. They had similar features that reminded Amelia of Joshua and her own father― the nose, the eyes, and even the structure of their faces. But their graying hair and hunched posture gave away more than they would’ve wanted about their age.
Amelia pursed her lips. Those two people must be her paternal grandparents.
Whatever flirtatious aura Aiden wore previously had quickly evaporated, quickly taken over by confusion.
"Do you know them?" Aiden asked.
"I wish I didn’t," Amelia confessed bitterly under her breath.
Her life had been very peaceful back when it was just her, her father, and her mother. Now that her extended family had reintroduced themselves into her life, everything had turned into a messy tangled web.
A security officer working for the office quickly made his way to the three people. Whatever he said to them, Amelia couldn’t hear as she was out of the range. However, Joshua’s reply was as clear as day.
"I am not leaving!" he yelled, throwing out his hands and causing the security officer to step back in self-defense. "Do you know who I am? My niece is the future wife of your boss. How dare you throw me out?"
The security officer said something else, most likely in an attempt to placate Joshua, but he cared not for anything he had to offer. Instead, Joshua Kentwood’s eyes scoured the hotel lobby before quickly finding where Amelia was. Ignoring the security officer, Joshua and his parents charged straight for Amelia, who hastily rose from the couch.
