Chapter 714
Ian stayed with the Collins family for a few days. He wanted to take Kelly to the Phil family.
It was almost Joshua’s birthday banquet. Ian still had a lot of feelings for his grandfather, so he wanted to bring
Kelly over to let him take a look at
her.
Kelly was a little nervous. She tugged at Ian’s sleeve. “Will Grandpa like me?”
Ian hesitated for a moment. He was naturally cold and was not interested in others, but he was exceptionally
sensitive to the people he cared about.
Although Joshua did not say it explicitly, Ian knew that his grandfather did not like Kelly.
To be precise, he didn’t like women who could affect his mood.
Ian did not want to lie to Kelly, but he did not want Kelly to have a grudge against his grandfather either.
He thought for a moment and said, “Grandpa hasn’t seen you yet, so I’m not sure if he likes you or not. However,
there’s a way to make him like you a little more.”
“Tell me,” Kelly urged.
Her current mentality was different from before. In the past, she was not sad about Ian as she had always felt that
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtshe would be separated from him
soon.
But now that she had decided to be with him, she had to accept everything about him.
She hoped that his family would like her, just as she hoped that Olivia would like Ian.
Ian hugged Kelly and sat down. He said in a serious tone, “Grandpa has been the head of the family for decades. He
has a strong personality and is quite stubborn. He probably doesn’t like the fact that I always listen to

you.”

Kelly was stunned, but she quickly understood where he was coming from.
She often heard people say that mothers-in-law disliked their daughters- in-law as they felt that their daughters-in-
law had snatched their son away.
Although Joshua was not her mother-in-law, he had the same level of possessiveness. He was probably afraid that
she would snatch his grandson
away.
Kelly nodded, indicating that she understood. She even suggested, “Then don’t be so close to me when we go to
the Phil family. Control yourself.”
Ian thought, ‘Why is Kelly so impressive? She’d thought of it herself before I even brought it up.’
Ian’s heart went soft. It was about to melt.
He rested his chin on Kelly’s shoulder. His heart ached. “It’s going to be hard on you, Kelly. Grandpa is old and his
thoughts are a little strange.”
Kelly chuckled in her heart.
Kelly was doing this not only for Ian but also for Olivia. She hoped that Ian would suffer for her when he met Olivia
in the future.
She had to show that she was willing to suffer for Ian if she expected that behavior from him in the future.
Kelly was quite smart.
It was just that her previous living environment was too simple. She was also too lazy to go through all the effort.
No one could stop her if she really wanted to do something.
Kelly told Dylan that she was going to the Phil family after delightfully making her plans.
“Of course, of course.” Dylan nodded repeatedly. “Joshua’s birthday banquet is in a few days. As juniors, you should
go early.”

“Oh right.” Dylan thought of something. “Have you prepared a gift? You’re newly married to Ian, so you have to be
polite.”
Kelly was stunned by the question. She had not really thought about bringing a gift, but Ian should have prepared
the gift for her.
Hence, she said, “I just found out about this and didn’t make any preparations. Ian should have prepared a gift long
ago.”
“How can that do?” Dylan shot her a disapproving look. “You should prepare one too. How about this? I’ll prepare it
for you.”
“No, no.” Kelly waved her hand. “I’ll do it myself. Don’t worry, Grandpa. I know what I’m doing.”
Dylan did not say anything when he saw how firm Kelly was.
After leaving Dylan’s side, Kelly was about to return to her room when Brenda, Penelope, and the others caught up
to her.
Millie had an exaggerated expression. “Are you going to visit Mr. Joshua? He’s the head of the Phil family and one of
the most powerful people in the country. He’s a big shot that you can only see on the news. Are you afraid?”
Millie had never seen Joshua in her life.
