Chapter 610

Eleanor had never met Bernard’s granddad Blake But, she had heard plenty about him

Word had it that Blake was so powerful during his time, even the Big Four in the M Continent had to

give him a wide barth

His determination and decisiveness had made the Laurence Group a powerhouse in markets

worldwide

Now, such a big shot suddenly came looking for her. It was likely that he was here to discuss her

marriage

Eleanor quessed that was why he was here, and she was both nervous and scared But she put on a

brave face, got herself together, and went downstairs to meet him

Blake was wearing a suit that fit him like a glove. He leaned on a cane and stood tall in the living room

Despite being 75, this old man looked youthful, full of vim and vigor. There was a cold aura about him

Eleanor could feel his presence even before she got close to him. She needed to muster the courage,

firm up her nerves, and step up to him.

“Grandpa Blake

She greeted him politely Only then did Blake shift his attention from the surroundings to her. His gaze

was calm and deep, as if he was scanning Eleanor from head to toe Eleanor felt his cold stare, and it

was making her nervous. But she kept her coul and didn’t show any fear. Seeing that Blake stayed

silent, she suggested they sit down, “Grandpa Blake, why dont we sit down and have a chat?”

She motioned for him to take a seat on the couch, but he waved her off. “No need. I’ll just say a few

words and then I leave,”

Blake’s voice was hoary, but it was still strong and compelling You had to obey his wish.

Eleanor had no choice but to retract her hand and look up at the tall Blake, “Grandpa Blake, is there

something you’d like to tell me?”

She didn’t directly ask why he was looking for her, but asked what he wanted to tell her, as a sign of

respect

Hearing this, a hint of disdain in Blake’s eyes faded slightly. He looked at Eleanor and asked, “On the

night Bernard proposed to you, all the elders of the Laurence family were invited.Do you know why we

didn’t attend?”

Eleanor got his point, but she pretended not to know and shook her head, “Grandpa Blake, please do

tell.”

Blake straightened up and said coldly, “I don’t approve of your marriage”

Hearing his intention, Eleanor felt a sense of relief, “Grandpa Blake, all decisions about my marriage to

Bernard are made by him. If you disagree, please discuss it with him.”

She and Bernard had gone through a lot. Now, at this final stage, they were facing opposition from the

elders. This was beyond her control. All she could do was hand it over to Bernard Blake didn’t expect

that this seemingly prim and proper young lady could stay cool under his pressure and even throw the

ball back in his court.

He sized up Eleanor again. This woman must have known that he had voiced his opposition to their

marriage in front of Bernard. That was why she dared to suggest he discuss it with Bernard. This

woman seemed to have deep thoughts. No wonder his grandson was so smitten with her.

Blake dropped his disdain and became wary. “Ms Shultz, my grandson is head over heels for you. He

will definitely marry you, so dont try to fob me off with him. Let’s be straightforward with each other”

Eleanor noted his tone getting serious and her heart raced, ‘

Before she could respond, the old man cut her off, I won’t beat around the bush. As an elder, I just

have a few questions for you.”

Eleanor tightened her grip and nodded, “Sure, sir. Fire away”

-Blake raised a finger and asked Eleanor, ‘First question, does your background match up to my

grandson’s?”
