Chapter 45 - Chapter 45 Your house

Here is the rewritten text:

"My grandson, you really grew up. First, look at you, all grown up," Carrel said, looking at her grandson lovingly as they headed to the dining room after chatting in the room earlier.

Now in the living room, Mr. Alexander sat waiting for his son, mother, and father to arrive so they could have dinner together. It had been a long time since they last met, and he was excited.

"Mom, Dad," Mr. Alexander called as he stood up and walked to where they were meeting midway. He embraced his mother and then his father.

"Oh, my son Alexander, how have you been?" Carrel asked as she hugged her son.

"I'm well, Mom," Alexander said.

"How are you doing, and how is my daughter-in-law?" his mother asked.

"She's okay, Mom," Alexander said, but before he could add something, Ace chimed in.

"She's sending her greetings to you, beautiful Granny," Ace said, and Carrel smiled.

"Oh, my, such a compliment. I feel flattered. Only if your grandfather gave me such compliments and saw me as beautiful as you see me," Carrel said, looking at her husband with a serious gaze.

Hearing what she said, Tom looked at his wife in disbelief. Seriously, is it now that she starts complaining? Why didn't she say something close to that ever when she was with him? Hm, now that someone complimented her, so she is trying to act this way? Nice me, right, Carrel? Don't worry, I will always compliment you, but before that, I will show this brat how to compliment someone, Tom said in his head, with his brow raised, looking at his wife.

"Oh, seriously, is she beautiful?" Tom asked with a questioning tone.

Hearing what her husband said, Carrel's mouth was hung open at what he said.

"Yes, it's now that you see, huh?" she asked with a threatening tone and a raised brow, looking at her husband, and took a step closer as he took one and gulped backward.

The truth is, Tom was afraid of his wife, and if she said something, he wouldn't object. But today, seeing his son and grandson made him happy, and he chose to try his luck.

It's not that she was that fierce, but when she got angry, he would suffer because of loneliness, as she wouldn't talk to him, even if it would take a week, and he would be dying by then.

"Oh, yes, you are really beautiful. You look stunning, hmm, yes, my darling wife, you look gorgeous," Tom said with a smile on his lips as he looked at her lovingly.

As if he wasn't the one who said, "Is she beautiful?" the first time. Looking at his parents, Alexander laughed.

"Mom, you didn't stop punishing Dad, still," Alexander said.

"Yes, since he enjoyed getting me angry, why won't I enjoy avenging myself?" she asked.

"You two look lovely together," Ace suddenly said, as he looked at his grandfather, who now had his shoulder over his grandmother's shoulder, surprising both his father and grandparents.

Hearing what Ace said, Carrel and her husband were greatly surprised by what Ace had said, not just them, but Ace's father, as he looked at his son, who seemed like it wasn't him, and he asked himself, "When did my son change? Even though he is always spending his time at the company and in his study, when he was home, I knew the habits of my son, who is quiet and doesn't like associating with people, but what now is seriously something I have no idea my son is."

He used to wonder when his son would start associating with people and be well-known when he gave him the company in the future, though it's not like his mouth is what he needs in dealing with the company, but his brain. Still, his mouth is part of it.

"Oh, my Ace, you really know how to sweet-talk now, huh? Even compliment people," his grandma said, looking at him.

"What changed? Back then, when we visited you, you were not talkative, but now you even know how to sweet-talk. I'm really surprised, at the same time flattered for this praise. I forget when the last time someone praised me like that," she said, looking at her husband from the side.

"Please keep this behavior and don't change," she said, smiling.

"Don't worry, I won't, and I will keep complimenting you all the time," Ace said with a smile and headed to the dining table. Before taking a seat, he said, "I'm famished. Can I start if you don't mind, pretty Carrel?" Ace said with respect.

"Oh, please be like him," Carrel said to her husband before answering Ace.

Sure, off course, you can dig in," Carrel said, smiling at Ace. "I wouldn't want to keep my handsome grandson hungry."

Alexander led his parents to the table, earning a teasing comment from his father. "What are you doing? You're acting like you're leading us into our own home."

Tom's comment made Carrel narrow her eyes. "Our house?" she repeated, her tone icy.

Tom quickly corrected himself. "I mean, our house, of course."

Carrel raised an eyebrow. "Oh, fine. Our house, huh? What's wrong with you today?"

Hmm I will sure you hell carrel said in her head as she stomp off from there.

" Carrel where are you going,"Tom asked panicked as he followed his wife.
