Flash Marriage: She becomes Mrs. CEO after the Failed Dowry Talk

Chapter 590: Meeting the Family Together

Yvonne Winslow met with the head of the family, and Nora Northwood didn’t pause her steps either. However, this "head of the family" was different from the usual meaning, implying something else.

When Elaine took her to meet her grandfather, the old man had just finished a full set of the Eight Pieces of Brocade, looking refreshed and nothing like someone over seventy.

"You must be Nora, right? You look just like your mother."

"Yes, Grandpa."

The old man reached out to Nora, the back of his hand full of wrinkles.

The elderly man and the young woman gazed at each other for a moment.

The feeling her grandfather gave her was different from Grandma Sinclair, more of the strength that comes from blood ties.

"I saw the press conference you held; it’s very inspiring and brought honor to our family!"

"Thank you, Grandpa, for the compliment. I’ll keep getting better." Nora was as obedient as a little schoolgirl and ought to have a red scarf tied around her neck.

Elaine listened to their conversation and casually brewed a pot of tea, saying, "How long do you two plan to stand there? Hurry and sit down to rest."

"Young people should move more. Sitting all day can easily cause a herniated disc."

Nora was amused by her grandfather and realized that he was a very interesting old man.

"Grandpa is right. Next time, I’ll learn the Eight Pieces of Brocade with you."

A surprised "Oh!" rang out, "Nora knows about the Eight Pieces of Brocade!"

"Recently, my health was weak, and I read a lot of wellness books, that’s how I learned about it."

"Come here, let me check your pulse."

Her grandfather constantly surprised Nora, and she immediately rolled up her sleeve and reached out.

"Liver Qi stagnation, are you worried about something?"

"Not now, just occasionally concerned about company matters. I have a business trip before New Year’s Eve."

The two of them chatted leisurely, not showing any signs of being strangers meeting for the first time. Some scenes seemed as if they had played out a thousand times in some parallel universe.

There is a fate decided by heaven.

Soon, it was time for lunch, and the servant took Nora to wash her hands and showed her around the garden.

In the living room, only the father and daughter were left.

"Dad, it seems you really like Nora."

"The Hutchinson Family owes this child something. I’ve decided to register forty percent of my assets under her name."

Old Master Hutchinson’s forty percent is enough to buy ten VKs, people and all.

"Let the past be the past. Nora is kind-hearted, and even if I tell her the whole story from back then, she wouldn’t hold any resentment."

The more Elaine spoke like this, the more melancholy the old man became.

After dinner, he called the young girl to the study alone and talked about many things related to the Hutchinson Family.

In Stanton City, the family might not be well-known.

But locally, they are a revered century-old family that has focused on just one thing for a hundred years - perfumery.

Otherwise, they wouldn’t have produced a genius perfumer like Elaine.

Nora even jested about herself, saying, "I’ve always wondered why my sense of smell is more sensitive than others; it seems it’s all good genes!"

"The secret techniques played only a small part; you’re talented and willing to work hard."

"Grandpa, if you praise me any more, my tail will wag up to the sky."

"I’m just speaking the truth. I believe it won’t be long before your achievements in the fragrance industry surpass your mother’s."

So far, this was the highest praise Nora had ever heard, and she could hardly believe her ears.
