The Reincarnation of the Tough Empress Being a Neglected Wife
Eps. 20

In his heart Devan hopes his grandfather will invite him to join the lunch with Az.

"If you have no special purpose or promise to go out, you better come with us to have lunch with Samuel and his granddaughter." suggested Mr. Gerald.

Devan pretends to think about weighing whether to come along or not for a moment. Though in his heart he cheered with excitement because he got an invitation without having to ask to follow or follow his grandfather and would pretend to accidentally meet at the same restaurant with them.

"Alright cake. I don't know where to go anyway. I just plan to go around the city and find food and go home" Devan replied with an ordinary face, but in his excited heart.

Devan's parents had come out of their room with a more presentable appearance.

"Are we leaving now?" ask Devan.

"We? Does that mean you're also gonna be at Devan's lunch?" instead of answering Mr. Darren asked back.

"Grandfather invited me and I was having no other activities. Then there's no harm in me coming." Devan replied.

"Tumben once you're willing to join a lunch with a single woman on the show. Normally I would be uncomfortable." said Mr. Darren glancing at his son with a mocking smile.

"I..., I'm only coming because Sam's good and great grandfather was also at the lunch with him." devan said relieved to get the right reasons so that his father did not mock him any more.

"Why are you excited to meet an old man? Was it really because of master Sam or because of his grandson?" ask Mr. Darren.

"certainly no. I just want to get closer to Sam's grandfather who knows I can learn from him how to be as successful as he is." Devan said.

"Already, already, we're leaving now because I want to stop at the shopping center for a while to give an introductory gift to Az" said Mr. Gerald.

"Dad was very excited about this beautiful girl" Renata said.

"I've wanted granddaughters of yours for a long time but didn't have them until now. Az is a sweet and polite girl. I would like to see him more often and assume that he is my own grandson" Gerald said.

"She's probably going to be your granddaughter-in-law to you, Grandpa. I've been attracted to him and will try to get his heart." Devan's inner.

They set off together in separate cars because Devan chose to drive his own car. Mr. Gerald and his son and son-in-law took a different car with the driver.

...----------------...

In an Az shopping mall, Samuel and several bodyguards were shopping. Samuel bought a lot of clothes and also accessories that fit the style that Az liked.

Samuel only knew that his grandson was a woman who was feminine so he provided clothing and accessories for feminine women. Because Az knew he preferred a more relaxed appearance and Az took up the hobby of exercising Samuel decided to buy back clothes that fit the Az style.

Samuel even bought sports equipment and planned to make a special room like a gym for his grandson so that Az is not saturated in the mansion.

"Is there anything else you need, dear Az?" ask Samuel.

"Everything is more than enough, Grandpa. I see grandfather is no longer shopping but grandfather is about to move all the shops to our mansion." replied Az.

"Grandpa just wants everything you need to be fulfilled, baby." said Samuel.

"Grandfather loves you more dear." said Samuel returned his granddaughter's embrace while stroking Az's darling hair.

Again Az's togetherness with his grandfather was witnessed by Elliot who again misunderstood their togetherness.

"Sadly, the crafty woman was still comfortable with the old man and unhappily they even made out in a public place like this." deih Elliot looked despicablely at Az.

"Darling....!" calling Jasmine to Elliot made Elliot step towards where Jasmine was picking jewelry.

Feeling guilty for being suspicious and acting uncharacteristically towards Jasmine, Elliot takes Jasmine shopping as he pleases the woman he loves.

"What do you see there?" jasmine asked as Elliot was already standing next to her.

"It's nothing. Did you get what you wanted?" ask Elliot.

"I want this." replied Jasmine pointing to a set of diamond jewelry.

"Isn't that almost exactly the same as the last piece of jewelry you bought?" ask Elliot.

"Dear baby, I want this." replied Jasmine.

Jasmine did not care about the form of jewelry she chose that was important to her was the most expensive price.

"Alright whatever, after this you're back in a cab because I have an impromptu meeting" Elliot said.

Jasmine simply nodded because for him to come home in a taxi was also no problem the most important thing was that he had gotten a lot out of Elliot's pocket today.

"Yes, I can go out with friends and have fun with them after this because this boring guy is going to go meeting." Jasmine's inner gleeful.

Elliot left after paying for Jasmine's groceries without waiting for Jasmine to finish collecting her shopping bag.

He came back irritated and did not want to get any more upset from getting bored of accompanying Jasmine shopping. He chooses to return to the office and struggles with the job to dispel his thoughts about Az.

"I seem to have gone mad. How do I think about that woman even though I've seen her bad behavior that turns out to be just a rich man's teaser." elliot was upset and washed his face after he got to the office and went into the bathroom in his office.

"I'd rather just work than get more obscure. I already have Jasmine who sincerely loves me. I don't need a seductive woman like her" he said.

"Why didn't Henry give me a report on what I asked for? Did something happen? It's not usually that he's this slow to do his job." muttered Elliot who remembered that he gave orders to his subordinates to find out about Az and Jasmine.

"Ah I forgot that after that Henry had an accident and was unconscious until now" he murmured again.

"I'd better tell Anton to find out." he murmured again.

"Why do I find out again, while the truth is in front of my eyes. The woman was just fooling me into being suspicious of Jasmine and looking at herself as a good woman." Elliot muttered again then refocused on her work.
