Chapter 237
The Mercedes–Benz pulled up at Riverview Hospital.
Christian snorted at Alfred and stormed off to Lea’s dormitory.
HfMake doesn’t appreciate Lea, then I have no time for his grandson either; Christian thought to himself.
Alfred pursed his lips in resignation.
Talk to Grandpa about this, Lea reassured him.
“Okay” Alfred nodded.
Lea took a few steps, then turned back, holding his arm. “Do you want to know what I told your grandpa?” she asked teasingly.
Alfred looked at her curiously.
“I told him that once I graduate from college, my career will rival the Andrews Group. By then, he’ll have to agree to us getting married.”
A surge of emotions welled up in his deep eyes. “For me?”
Apart from Blake, there were too many obstacles between them. Only by achieving such heights could they truly control their destiny.
Alfred gently squeezed her hand, feeling for her. I can give up anything, including the title of heir to the Andrews family. The family doesn’t need me. It can thrive without me. So don’t worry. You don’t have to do anything you don’t want to.”
The Andrews family was already a leading dynasty, flourishing with or without him.
“No matter what happens. Tll be by your side. No one can separate us,” he added.
Lea’s eyes welled up with tears. She looked down, her breath catching painfully in her throat
After a moment, she raised her eyes, a hint of mischief in them. “You certainly should take over the Andrews Group. Why let Milton have it cheaply?”
Currently, Mihon and his father controlled the Andrews Group, having labored for decades and showing no signs of relinquishing power.
Their ambitions hadn’t yet surfaced, but in a previous life, Milion had schemed against Alfred on their wedding night to seize the Andrews Group.
Memories of that past flashed through Alfred’s mind, a glint of coldness flickering in his eyes. “Alright, I promise you”
“Don’t worry. I won’t lose.” Lea asserted confidently.
“No one will take him from me she thought to herself.
A smile played on his lips. Grandpa has finally met his match.
Lea was already a peerless genius, and with the refinement of her past life, she was even more formidable after her rebirth. As she gradually realized her ambitions, not just the Andrews Group, but the whole world would have to make way for her.
Lea chuckled. “I’ll go see Grandpa first
“okay”
She entered the dormitory where Christian sat indignantly on the sofa.
Lea brewed a cup of his favorite Kona Coffee. “Grandpa, don’t be angry.”
“Hmph!” He turned away, visibly upset and not easily appeased.
I know I should have discussed my relationship with you, but I feel like you wouldn’t approve of early romance…
Bringing this up reminded Christian of something. When she was in Vaporleon City, she was already in contact with Alfred. At that time, he had specifically warned her not to get too close to Alfred.
Thinking back to her response at the time only made him angrier.

“So you knew I didn’t approve of early romance”
1’s not that early. I’m nineteen already. Oh, no, I’m actually twenty now
Christian relaxed slightly
“I was actually planning to talk to you both about it this time, but things have developed differently than planned”
Christian finally looked at her seriously.
That’s because Blake doesn’t agree with this. He bullies Lea, looks down on the Berry family, and tramples on my dignity! He thought to himself.
“There are plenty of good men in the world. What’s so great about the grandson of the Andrews family? I don’t see anything special about him.”
Lea responded, “The other men are indeed nothing special, but Alfred is different. He’s quite good”
Christian paused, noticing the subtle expression on her face when she mentioned Alfred. He knew she was already deeply involved.
“What’s so good about him?” he asked.
“He’s handsome, capable, and a genuinely good person.” Lea smiled.
Lea couldn’t tell Christian what Al
Alfred had done for her in her previous life, how much he had sacrificed.
Seeing her eyes filled with a galaxy of emotions, Christian’s heart trembled
In terms of emotional maturity, let alone peers, he felt inferior to Lea
Christian felt a pang of guilt in his heart. It seems like Lea really does love Alfred, I can only blame myself for not taking better care of her since childhood. Even now, our relationship is good, but I know so little about her.
“Even if you think so. Blake won’t agree. Alfred is the heir to the Andrews family, and in the end, you two can’t be together.” Christian said cautiously, wanting her to face reality, but more so feeling sorry for her.
Tve already talked to Mr. Andrews. If I still can’t win his approval by the time I graduate from college. I will step back,” Lea replied.
She didn’t dare to tell Christian about the bet with Blake, afraid of alarming him.
Christian was taken aback. Seeing her thoughtful expression, she had already considered this so deeply
“Why do you have to go through this Christian asked.
Christian didn’t believe she could convince Blake. The difference in their family backgrounds was too vast. Even if given a hundred years, the Berry family could never catch up to the Andrews family
They would eventually have to part ways.
Previously, Christian had never cared about such things, but now, looking at Lea in front of him, he suddenly felt unwilling to accept in.
“Grandpa, I’ve set my sights on someone I don’t want to give up. That’s not my style. If I give it my all and fail, I’ll accept it willingly.” Lea said firmly.
Christian suddenly felt calm in his heart, deeply respecting the Lea before him.

“Blake lacks vision, despite his age, Lea remarked. It was surprising that Blake couldn’t see how outstanding
Lea was.
“Yes, you’re right. Here, have some coffee, Grandpa, Lea said warmly.
Christian sighed helplessly, shook his head, and took the coffee.
He drank it, feeling parched from all the talking and traveling to Andrews Manor.
“Definitely not because I feel sorry for Lea. She’s been mistreated in the Andrews family and now has to appease me… Christian thought, caring deeply for Lea but unwilling to admit it.
Buzz.

“Grandpa, let me take this call” Les said, getting up and moving to the window to answer it
“Lea, we’ve run into trouble. The TV station as canceled our hospital interview, and several live streaming platforms have also rejected us,” Chris
Lea’s expression darkened as she understood the gravity of the situation. “I see. Ill come over later”
After hanging up, she turned back to Christian with a bright smile as if nothing had happened “Grandpa, you and Mr. Fisher should rest. If anything comes up, just let Jason know. 11l handle some work and we’ll have dinner together tonight”
Christian was aware of how busy she was. “Go ahead. It’s better than making me more upset?
As soon as Lea left. Alfred walked in. Hello, Mr. Berry.”
“Get out! Hmph! I don’t want to see you?” Christian turned away, refusing to acknowledge Alfred.
In Vaporleon City, Christian had treated Alfred as a younger generation and hosted him well, but Alfred had ulterior motives, engaging

What made things worse was that Blake was still unwilling to accept Lex.
Christian’s anger intensited.

“I came to tell you that even without the Andrews family or the title of heir, I can still take care of Lea. I swear to you and never let her down.
Seeing Alfred’s sincere demeanor, Christian relictantly turned his head, giving him a sideways glance as he assessed him from top to bottom. Alfred was just a young man in his early twenties.
“Sounds good, but what can you offer to take care of her?
Blake’s disapproval was the greatest obstacle, something these young people couldn’t even imagine.
“Mr. Berry, here, Alfred said, handing a thick envelope to Christian,
Christian was taken aback and took the envelope, opening it to see what was inside.
He was stunned as he looked through the documents.
The envelope contained proof of Alfred’s assets
He discovered that Alfred was a major sharehokler in Grefan, one of the largest investment companies in the world, with capital estimated at more than 20 billion dollars.
Alfred also held shares in several of the top p ten global companies
Alfred was truly a wealthy tycoon,
“Do do you have your grandpa’s knowledge of this?” Christian asked, his voice filled with shock.
“No” Alfred replied, then added, “My grandpa doesn’t know about my business ventures”
Christian was even more astonished.
“The Andrews family’s descendants have their own growth funds from a young age, which they can use freely, I developed my own ventures Independently. I am a self–reliant adult. My marriage is my own decision and not subject to anyone’s influence.”
Christian raised an eyebrow, thinking. Indeed, it seems even your grandpa couldn’t deckle for you!
“Mr. Berry, I am giving these to you as a promise to marry Lea. Please accept them”
Christian felt the envelope burning in his hands and quickly placed it on the coffee table. “Why don’t you give it to her yourself?”
“She wouldn’t accept it. Alfred replied.
“True, Lea isn’t the type who cares about money,”
“Then please keep it safe for her, Mr. Berry,” Alfred added.
Christian was momentarily stunned and hesitated, “Alfred, let me be clear. I’ll be watching you for a few years. If you don’t treat Lea well and if she
