章節 35: Meeting Theodore's family

Malcolm cleared his throat, grabbing their attention. "You, brat!" He feigned fury, puffing out his chest. "You got married but didn't think of telling me! Do you still have regard for me in your heart?"

"Grandpa, don't be mad." Theodore approached him, holding Bella's hand. "I was planning to introduce Bella properly at our meeting this weekend."

"Humph!" Malcolm harrumphed, turning away with a theatrical huff. "Well, I wouldn't have known a thing about it if Gary hadn't called me."

"I see! Gary told you." Theodore raised his eyebrows, realizing who had leaked the news. 'Your reward is canceled, Gary,' he muttered to himself, grimacing.

"You dared to marry without my consent and hide your wife from me," Malcolm roared, his loud voice booming inside the foyer. "Do you still have regard for your elders?"

Sensing Malcolm was still upset, Bella stepped forward, a hesitant smile on her face. She introduced herself: "Grandpa. I am Bella."
