Holding the gift, Xavia’s hands stiffened. She did not know if she should retrieve the gift and continued with this stalemate. She said in an aggrieved manner, “Grandpa, I know you don’t like me, but I was forced to do what I did before. I just wanted to survive.”

“Do you want me to show you the evidence?”

Feeling nervous, cold sweat broke out on her forehead. ‘No… This old bastard couldn’t have gotten evidence. S wouldn’t have exposed himself so easily. Harold must be trying to bluff me.”
