The CEO's Wife Is Super Charming

Chapter 106: Chapter 105: Meeting the Parents

By now, it was nearing dusk, and Elliana Lyle sat in the front passenger seat of Norman Bennett’s car, feeling extremely anxious.

Earlier that afternoon, she brought Norman some soup she had made, but instead of enjoying it, Norman had to throw it away as he was called into a meeting, leaving her to wait alone in the office.

But after she answered a phone call for Norman in the office, she had been feeling very nervous ever since.

Initially, she thought it was just another client calling, and as she was the only one in the office at the time, she had no choice but to answer it herself.

To her surprise, as soon as she picked up the call, Norman also picked up on his end. Due to the interconnected phone system in the company, she could hear Norman’s voice.

Not wanting to disturb them, she cautiously moved the phone away from her ear. But just as she was about to hang up, she heard her own name mentioned in the conversation, and curiosity compelled her to listen in for a moment.

On the other end of the call was Norman’s grandfather, saying he had come to South City and wanted Norman to bring her to meet him today.

Elliana panicked upon hearing this. Norman’s grandfather was a very mysterious person, the founder of The Bennetts Group, and a legendary figure in the country.

She had heard before that he used to be in the military!

To be honest, she had never met Norman’s grandparents.

And today, Norman hadn’t brought anyone else along, not even a driver—just him and her.

As she was lost in thought, the car pulled into the underground parking lot of a department store.

Elliana recalled Norman mentioning a location outside the city, and asked, "Norman Bennett? Aren’t we going to meet..."

"Mm, let’s buy some things first."

The man opened the car door for her, and after she got out, he held her hand as they walked towards the store.

She initially thought Norman was planning to buy some gifts, but as they wandered through the store, something felt off. Why had he taken her to the seafood section?

"Sir, would you like one?" An employee, wearing a red hat and vest, smiled and said, "This grouper is really fresh."

The man simply replied, "Yes."

She gently tugged at his hand and asked, "Norman Bennett... why are we buying fish?" As soon as she asked, she seemed to realize something. Was it because his grandfather had just returned and the villa was out of groceries?
