My Baby’s Daddy Is Mr CEO

Chapter 32

Chapter 32
Sammy and Grandpa Go arrived at the Gomez mansion, Oliver, Aria and the servants were in the sitting room, waiting to welcome him. Oliver hugged him the moment he walked in through the door.
“Welcome Grandpa, I have missed you so much,” he exclaimed.
“Oh really? Says the guy who never cares to call me, all you do is send me thousands every month but you don’t care to know how I am doing,” Grandpa Go grumbled.
“Come on Grandpa, you know that is not true, of course I care about you, I always call the servants to check up on you,” Oliver replied with a smile.
“You are just as much of a terrible liar as your father, of course like father like son,” Grandpa Go said and they laughed.
“So how have you been son? How are you holding up with the business? Sammy here tells me that you have become more responsible, I hope that is true?” the old man bantered.
Oliver shot a mean glance at Sammy who shrugged and mouthed, “what?”
“Well, Grandpa, the company has been moving just fine, I have everything under control.” Oliver replied.
“Good, at least that is one thing you are better than your dad in,” Grandpa go said.
Oliver sighed; he could not understand why his grandfather hated his father so much. Was there something that he did not know?
“Grandpa, can we just let the dead rest in peace, by the way you just arrived now, and you have not even had a seat or a cup of water if not wine. Please come and have a seat, and I would introduce you to someone,” Oliver said in excitement.
“Oh, speaking of introduction, that reminds me… Let me introduce you to someone first,” the old man said and Oliver furrowed his eyebrows, wondering what the old man was up to now.
Grandpa Go walked back to the door and looked out. “Please come in dear,” he said, and then walked back in.
Everyone present in the room stood curiously, with their eyes fixed on the entrance, waiting for whoever it was that would come in. Meanwhile, Arianna had put Princess to bed and was coming down the stairs to join the welcome party. She was also anxious to meet Grandpa Go.
A minute later, a young Chinese woman walked majestically into the sitting room, with her deep blue eyes, long eyelashes and painted lips. She looked rich and sophisticated too, her blue polished fingernails were so long that it got Oliver’s attention the moment she stepped in.
“Welcome to America and to the Gomez mansion my dear,” Grandpa Go said and hugged her.
Oliver was confused and a lot of thoughts were already running through his mind, first he wondered if his grandfather had adopted a daughter as he did not have one, but why this late? Or could it be that his grandfather decided to get married again at his age, well for someone as crazy as Grandpa Go, it was not impossible.
“Nora, meet my grandson Oliver, Oliver meet the daughter of my childhood friend and a fellow politician back in the days, her name is Nora Tan, daughter of Marshall Tan,” he introduced.
“Nice to meet you, Nora,” Oliver said and extended his hand for a handshake.
She accepted his hand with a smile and held on tight to it for a minute or two after the handshake, Oliver found her behavior strange and after he successfully pulled off his hand from hers, he wondered if it was their tradition in china to hold on to a person’s hand for minutes.
Sammy noticed what had happened and couldn’t help but chuckle, the scene was hilarious for him. Oliver shot him another mean glance and he almost choked on his own saliva. Arianna had now arrived and stood behind Oliver, waiting to be introduced.
“Dad, you could have told me that we would be having a guest so that I could make arrangements for her on time,” Oliver said.
“Oh, I just wanted to surprise you, and anyway, I don’t think that is a big deal, you could make the arrangements in less than an hour, is that not so?” Grandpa Gomez replied.
“Well yes that is true, I will do that right away, but how long would she be staying so I know how to make the arrangements,” Oliver queried.
Grandpa Go smiled. “Oh, she will be staying for a very long time…”
Oliver found something suspicious about the way the old man said that, he wrinkled his eyebrows in scrutiny.
“Okay, Grandpa… why do I feel like you have something up your sleeve? What are you not telling me old man,” Oliver asked and laughed.
Grandpa Go joined in the laughter, “you have become a smart boy, well there is no need of keeping it a secret anymore, you are still going to find out sooner or later, but before I tell you the surprise, why is the maid behind you not in uniform?” Grandpa Go queried.
Oliver turned behind and the only female standing behind him was Arianna. The maids were at a distance from him, he realized that his father had mistaken Arianna for a maid.
Arianna felt bad with his comment, but Oliver gave her a reassuring look to lighten her mood. He could see the sadness in her eyes and he wanted to let her know that he was firmly behind her.
“Grandpa, um… you are mistaken, she is not a maid, the lady in question is …”
“Never mind about that, it is your house and your rules anyway,” Grandpa Go said, cutting his words short. “So back to my surprise, Nora here has come with me to Las Vegas because I am getting you two married!” Grandpa Go announced with excitement all over his face.
The smile on Oliver’s face turned into shock immediately, his face went sour and his jaws dropped. Arianna went bug-eyed on hearing that, she could not believe what she had just heard; his grandfather had brought him a new wife?
The whole room was in silence as awe fell on them, the surprise and tension of the moment. Even Grandpa Go was confused with their expression; he had expected them to be surprised not to be left standing as ghosts. Sammy scratched his head and wished he was not here to see this awkward scene, while the servants looked down; avoiding the old man’s questioning eyes.
“Grandpa, this is a joke right?” Oliver queried and forced a chuckle.
“No son, I mean what I have just said; Nora is here to be your wife, why do you look so surprised? Is it not high time you get married? Or are you gay?” The old man queried and the butler tried hard not to laugh.
“No Grandpa, I am not gay and if you had given me a minute to complete my statement, then you would have known that the woman standing beside me is my wife,” Oliver announced.
“What?” Grandpa Go half-screamed, now it was his turn to be shocked, he stared from Oliver to Aria, then over to Sammy who bowed his face. Once again his gaze fell On Oliver.
“Stark, tell me that you are playing your old man, that this is a joke,” He laughed and rubbed his palm on Oliver’s hair like he was talking to a kid.
“Grandpa, I am damn serious, this is my wife Arianna and we have a daughter!” he fired in a stern voice.
