Xander rounded and pointed to himself, "I'm coming with grandpa?"
"Yes, why? You don't want to?"
Xander shook his head quickly, "bu-not that, it's just, Charlotte..."
"That's why grandfather would use that young man to be Charlotte's friend, the real intent of his presence is to replace your position."
Xander was stunned, "Replace my position?"
"Yes, after you leave, that young man who will be next to Charlotte, accompanies Charlotte and is together with Charlotte. He is already considered as the youngest grandson of grandfather." said Mr. Romaov. "And yes, he will be grandfather's adopted grandson, even if he won't get anything as special as you."
"Not like me?"
"Yes, of course. You've been with Grandpa and Charlotte since you were little. You're so special, Xander. You're grandfather's original grandson. While he. That's why he's gonna be Charlotte's friend, not Charlotte's brother, like you."
"Grandfather will make it as grandfather's grandson. And even though the position is much different from you but grandfather will still try to get the three of you close."
Xander was silent again. To be honest, the words from the grandfather just now made him even more surprised. Imagine, his grandfather said that he would make the young man a friend of Charlotte.
"I don't have a problem with all this Grandpa, but Charlotte? Will he be able to accept all of this grandfather's decisions?"
"He will accept it" continued Mr. Romanov steadily. "We will do it slowly over the next three months.
Xander nodded, he understood the grandfather's plan. But Xander still had doubts about this. For Xander it is not easy to change the habits of his sister. He alone who was close to Charlotte was unable to manage the girl, then what about the others?
And actually, it wasn't Charlotte that Xander was worried about right now but that young man. Xander knew clearly the character of his sister. If Charlotte didn't like someone, then Charlotte would definitely try anything to 'do something bad' on that young man.
'Hopefully not, ' Inner Xander.
"Come on! We can go back to the factory" Mr. Romanov told Xander. "Grandfather just wanted to tell you about all that stuff."
"Good, grandpa." Xander nodded his head obediently. He took his breath and exhaled it slowly.
'What am I worried about? Grandfather would definitely not let Charlotte mess with that young man.' Xander nodded and shook his head, trying to forget the worries that had appeared in his head.
After that, then Xander started the engine and gas his car, back drive the car on the highway.
"You stop in front of the factory fence. Grandpa will get off there later." said Mr. Romanov when the car they were driving almost arrived at the factory building.
"I can take grandfather to the entrance of the lobby." Xander refused the grandfather's request.
"No, just stop here." Mr. Romanov pointed at the factory fence while patting Xander on the shoulder for his grandson to comply.
Xander gave up refusing the grandfather's request and then chose to pull his car in front of the fence.
"Where are you going?" asked Mr. Romanov when he saw Xander who was about to take off his seatbelt as well, wanted to come down.
"Down, cake." replied Xander.
"You don't have to come down, just go to college!" mr. Romanov's orders.
Xander sighed and again nodded his head obediently, "Does grandfather want me to pick him up later."
"No." mr. Romanov shook his head. "Grandfather will be home with Mario."
"All right." Xander nodded in understanding.
"And let's not forget, grandfather wants the presence of the two of you tonight! Exactly seven o'clock." said Mr. Romanov again reminded.
"Well cake, I'll tell Charlotte this afternoon."
"Grandfather go first." said Mr. Romanov.
Brakk!
Xander was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief after the grandfather finally got out of his car and closed the door. Completely relieved, it felt like he had just come out of the room without oxygen.
Xander leaned his back against the back of his car seat. From inside his car, Xander stared fixedly at the back of the middle-aged man who was currently walking further and further away from him. He stared at every step of the grandfather who was entering the factory yard.
Xander quietly returned ringing by his conversation with the grandfather just a moment ago. He could not believe that Mr. Romanov had truly entrusted the future of the company to him.
"Why did Grandpa do this to me? Why should grandfather be this good to me." - his mind was soft. For Xander, this was a tough task for him to do. But anyway Xander was powerless to resist.
Xander unknowingly recalls, years ago when he was just a child with no parents living in an orphanage. And one day Mr. Romanov came to his place. He was there to give money to the orphanage.
And all of a sudden, Mr. Romanov offered her an offer to come to his house. Mr. Romanov did not even hesitate to put it on the family card and make it a new birth certificate with Mr. Romanov himself as his guardian.
Without a doubt Mr. Romanov also sent her to the private school where her granddaughter Charlotte attended. He was also given a monthly pocket money that is not small. Savings of the future. And now Mr. Romanov made him a candidate for President Director. Xander smiled wryly, for him there was no more beautiful privilege compared to all that Mr. Romanov gave him.
Xander lowered his head while tightening his grip on the steering wheel of the car in his hand.
"I don't have much else to repay for everything he's ever given me but to obey everything he's said."
