Daisy turned to Mrs. Nenito and said: 'Daughter-in-law is late, I hope you understand."
"I'm just reminding you, I'm still young and can wait for you, but Grandpa is old, you have to eat and sleep on time. The housekeeper has warned you, you and Atlas should also do the same."
"You guys must know how to arrange a little time to eat and drink, right? You see, at the company, Dalziel has to handle so much work that he can still arrange to leave early. You are at home but you can't arrange the time?"
When Mrs. Nenito said her words, the atmosphere immediately became cold. Daisy felt where the cold air came from, it was the man next to her.
Mrs. Nenito saying that is like saying Daisy and Atlas are useless people who only know how to eat but don't know how to work. After all, she has her job, but Mrs. Nenito doesn't know it. As for Atlas, he was sitting in a wheelchair, but Mrs. Nenito still said that which was like teasing him. Based on his personality, he will be angry.
Sure enough, she saw his body tense, his arms were full of blue veins. Daisy saw that and patted his shoulder. She looked at Mrs. Nenito and said: "You're right, next time Atlas and I will pay more attention. Isn't it a bit too much to say that? After all, Atlas has contributed a lot to the Drkov Group and this house. Even when standing in a giant building like this, you still have to remember the gratitude of the person who kept it."
'Insolent, do you talk to your mother-in-law like that? How long have you been in our house, and what do you know about the Drkov family's assets?"
Mrs. Nenito couldn't help but get angry, she stood up and pointed at Daisy.
'Indeed, I don't know anything about the Drkov family, I just hope you don't say my husband is useless in this house."
Daisy's voice was a bit sharp.
Atlas heard what she said, his heart wavered a bit, and there were also ripples in his eyes but he held back, is this woman for him? No, she was just acting in front of her grandfather. If he wasn't here, she would also think he was useless.
"You…"
'That's enough, no one can say anything else, I'm still here, do you think I'm air?"
Mr. Drkov was a little angry, he slammed his hand on the table.
Mrs. Nenito was silent, but she couldn't help it. She turned to Mr. Drkov and said: 'Look, your eldest granddaughter-in-law is too impolite to talk, this property was also built by you very hard."
'Daisy is right, have you forgotten that 8 years ago, Drkov company was on the verge of bankruptcy and almost had to sacrifice this villa? Who revived the company? That Atlas forgot to eat and drink for seven days, he revived the company and you can still live in this house. Atlas's merits cannot be denied."
Mr. Drkov said seriously.
Hearing that, Mrs. Nenito became speechless and could not say another word. Dalziel sat aside with an angry look on his face. Atlas is disabled and confined to a wheelchair, unable to do anything. Grandpa still respects Atlas. It seemed like he had to speed up the plan.
Seeing everyone silent, Mr. Drkov began to speak: "I called everyone here because I have something important to say. Two more days until Atlas re-inspection. Me, Atlas, and Daisy will fly to France for a while. This house and company, you and Dalziel please arrange everything."
It turns out this is the case. Mrs. Nenito softened her voice and said: "I know, don't worry, Dalziel and I will arrange everything at home and the company."
Hearing Mrs. Nenito say that, Mr. Drkov just glanced at her, he felt a little uneasy.
Atlas suddenly spoke again: "I won't go to France anymore."
He had no hope left for his legs so he didn't want to walk anymore. Joseph also said his legs no longer have a chance to recover. He had hoped and been disappointed many times. This time I don't want to hope anymore. Going abroad will only make people look at you with contempt.
Mr. Drkov said dissatisfiedly: 'Don't give up. I've already exchanged phone calls with Joseph. You have no choice but to go. Atlas, don't be discouraged. Even if there is a little bit of hope, you have to grasp it."
Atlas pursed his lips and did not answer. Mr. Drkov saw this and sighed and said: "Okay, I'll give you a day to think but I still hope you will go."
After talking, Mr. Drkov let Atlas and Daisy leave first and talked to Mrs. Nenito and her son.
Daisy pushed him out of Mr. Drkov's room. When he went downstairs, Linus helped him change into another wheelchair and then pushed the wheelchair into the room. She followed. Atlas spoke again: "You're not allowed in my room, have you forgotten what you said?"
Daisy paused for a moment. It was true that because she wanted Atlas to go to Mr. Drkov's room, she agreed to his conditions, but if she went to sleep somewhere else, it was expected that Mr. Drkov would ask about it. He says she is only allowed in this room. If she moves somewhere else, where will she sleep?
Daisy suddenly came up with an idea and said: 'I agree not to go into your room, but at least you have to let me shower and change clothes."
Atlas looked at her, he just snorted coldly without saying anything, and then he asked Linus to push the cart into the room. Daisy waited for the two of them to enter first before she entered.
