Chapter 1039 After that long conversation between Laura and Magnus, the latter went to Maximus's study, found a number, and made a call.
"Joseph George..." Magnus said into the phone.
"Magnus? What a surprise! This is amazing. A call?" said a raspy voice on the other end of the line.
"I wish I could say the same, but no... I have an unresolved Issue I'd like to discuss with you," Magnus said in an extremely serious tone.
"Tell me, Magnus. I'm all ears," the voice responded, sounding a bit nervous.

She had mentioned small fragments of it before, but for sstrange reason, she opened up to Magnus, and the man simply listened, making her feel understood.
Laura went into the bathroom and slipped into the bathtub. Taking advantage of the fact that Adele wasn't home, she spent at least an hour there until the water turned cold.
Meanwhile, several things were happening. Emergency services arrived at the Brown & George residence, picked up young Adrian, and rushed him to the hospital.
Fortunately, after several tests and at least eight stitches to his head, the man was not in any real danger. It had been a nasty hit, and he needed to rest and avoid exertion. The situation left him deep in thought.
Even though he had married out of obligation, he had genuinely tried. At first, Alice was madly in love with him. However, the moment she found out he had once dated Laura Palmer, everything changed.
Throughout their year of marriage, these kinds of incidents had becroutine. He laughed at himself because, when he was younger, he would have never allowed a woman to lay a hand on him. But in this case, things were different.
Alice had the full support of the Brown family, who had poured large amounts of money into preventing their business from collapsing due to poor management.
Adrian owed a lot to his family-and not just them, but also the Georges. So, he had no choice but to endure his wife's constant tantrums and humiliations.
At spoint, he regretted what had happened with Laura. Though he had searched for her, he never found her. Throughout her pregnancy, he never lost hope of seeing her again, apologizing, and finding a way to be worthy of her.
Tpassed, he got married, and the rest was history-a history that changed the moment he first laid eyes on Adele.
"Magnus Evans... What brings you here?” asked an older man, looking a little uneasy.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"It's very simple," Magnus said bluntly.
"Really?" the man asked, clearly unsure. "Why don't I believe you?" 0 +25 BONUS Chapter 1039 "It's about your granddaughter and mine," Magnus said seriously.
"You have a granddaughter? As far as I know, you don't..." Joseph said in surprise.
"I have a son, and he has five children. One of them has been having sissues with your granddaughter." "Really? This is news to me... You know my family follows a very strict code of conduct." "Coming from you, sure... But I can't say the sabout your granddaughter, Alice George." "Ah! I see. What did she do this time?" "So, you do know who I'm talking about, huh?" "Alice is the only spoiled child in the family, so much so that even her own parents can't control her," the man said, clearly frustrated.
"Well then, you know me, Joseph George. I'm a man of few words, but I prefer taking action." "Tellwhat she did, and I'll make it right." "Honestly, I don't think you can... All I'm going to ask, very seriously, is that she stays away from my granddaughter. Her nis Laura Evans-formerly Laura Palmer. I'm sure if you mention this name, she'll know exactly who I'm talking about." "What did she do to your granddaughter?" "Years of bullying. Years of tormenting an innocent little girl... to the point where she had to transfer schools just to feel safe." "I'm sorry... Alice is an only child and grew up thinking she deserves everything."
"Don't apologize. My granddaughter isn't to blfor your son or daughter's failure to set boundaries. e But one thing I am sure of, Joseph George-if she crosses paths with my granddaughter again, you and your entire family won't have a good time.
"In fact, I hear your family business is struggling a bit, isn't it? Lethelp you help yourself. Don't make men take action and sink your little family business, because if your granddaughter dares to do anything against mine, the friendship between you andwill be over. And I assyou don't want that." "I'm telling you, my friend, I wasn't aware of any of this. I sincerely regret not knowing sooner. I apologize on behalf of my family, and you should know I won't let this slide."
"Good, I hope so... Because your granddaughter and mine had an altercation today. You should also know that your granddaughter's yousband so-called husband is the father of my great-grandson. And my girl has decided to let him be part of their daughter's life-but your granddaughter has a problem with that. "I'm not asking you to be thrilled about it, but I am asking you to keep her in check." "Magnus, you know my family would never want trouble with yours. We know our place, and if this girl causes problems, I can assure you we'll take action to stop her." "Good. I hope it's clear that I won't tolerate any nonsense from your granddaughter." "It's crystal clear. And I know what you're capable of, so don't worry-I'll handle it." Thank you, Joseph George." With nothing more to say, Magnus got into his car and drove straight home, while Joseph George, looking pale at the thought of what could happen, decided to pay his troublesgranddaughter a visit before returning home.
