Chapter 357 Find out Their Purpose It was only seen that there was a spirited old man walking out of the back hall. The old man was holding a cane and walking steadily.
He was Alfred, the patriarch of the Songo family. At the age of 88, he was still healthy, with the majesty of being able to control the situation and see through everything.
There was also an old woman who came out behind him. She was his first wife, Carol Songo. Although she was old, she was graceful and showed the majesty of a hostess.
They were the souls of the Songon family. Even though it seemed that all the power of the Songon family was in the hands of Alfred, the actual control was at the hands of Carol.
âGrandpa, grandma, Iâm bringing someone here. You may not know her yet. Her name is Cecelia Linsey. She is the granddaughter of Grandaunt Cassie.â
Warda introduced Cecelia to the two elders.
After Alfred and Carol took their seats in the high hall, they began to look at the young woman in front of them.
Cecelia has a slim figure, a delicate face, and a unique cold temperament. At a quick glance, Cecelia did look like Cassie in her early age.
Was she Cecelia?
Cassieâs granddaughter?
âWell, you said you are Cassieâs granddaughter, but is there any evidence?â
There was doubt and surprise in Alfredâs eyes.
Cecelia took out the jade pendant belonging to the Songo family which passed down from her grandmother. âI have the heirloom jade pendant left by my grandma!â
She handed the jade pendant to Alfred to see. Alfred suddenly became emotional when he saw the old thing after decades.
His hands were shaking, tears welling up in his eyes. He said. âThis really belongs to Cassie! Look, Carol, it belongs to Cassie!â
Carol also took it to have a look. She looked at it carefully and nodded. âThatâs right, itâs hers!â
âOh, I didnât expect that Cassie has been missing for so many years and there are still descendants left behind. I didnât know about it until now.â
Alfred felt regret for a moment, thumping his chest and stamping his feet.
Seeing the old man crying, Warda comforted him. âGrandpa, donât be sad. Now Cecelia can come back, isnât it a fulfillment of your wish?â
âYou are right! Cecelia, itâs so great that you can come back. How is your grandmother now?â Alfred wiped away his tears and asked.
âMy grandmother passed away many years ago.â
Cecelia took back the jade pendant and said it calmly. She quietly watched the hypocrisy shown by the person in front of her.
How could the Songo family not know that her grandmother had passed away long ago?
Otherwise, how could there be a conspiracy that Black Hawk had been planning for many years?
Since they were acting in front of her, Cecelia really wanted to know how the thing would become at last.
âOh my Cassie, I still remember when we were young. We grew up together, how close we were!â
Alfred burst into tears again and performed a good show for her. If Cecelia hadnât seen through everything long ago, she might have been fooled.
âOkay, donât be sad. Even though Cassie is not here, doesnât Cecelia come back for her?â
Carol said to him. But she actually wanted to remind the old man not to overact.
âYou are right! Cecelia, I am your great uncle! Cecelia, my dear, I am very happy to have you back!â
Alfred looked at Cecelia happily, as if he regarded her as a relative.
However, Carol looked at her again and asked. âCecelia, why did you come to Porema suddenly? Why donât you send a letter in advance? Your grandmother has never contacted us in so many years. We all thought she was missing and didnât know her whereabouts.â
âMy grandma didnât tell me about my motherâs family background until she was about to die, and I only learned about it after my motherâs accident, so I thought about coming over to recognize my relatives.
After all, my grandma is a successor of the Songo family. If my grandma was still here, this place would be my grandmaâs home.â
Cecelia especially emphasized this point to let all of them know.
The place they lived in now was what her grandmother should have inherited. She was going back to her grandmotherâs house, not her great uncleâs house!
Sure enough, Ceceliaâs words stunned everyone.
The corner of Alfredâs mouth twitched slightly, but he didnât answer, just staring at her.
Carol remained friendly. âNo matter what, this is the house of the Songo family. Since you are back, you might as well stay at home for a while! Iâll have someone clean up your room first!â
From her words, Cecelia could know that Carol was the one who decided everything in the house.
Carol was quietly warning Cecelia that this was the Songo family, and Cecelia was from the Linsey family, and she was just a relative!
Carol called a maid in her old age, named Daisy, to come and take Cecelia to settle down first, but at this moment, Mizey came in with her parents.
When Mizey saw Cecelia appearing in the main hall of the Songo family, she became angry immediately.
âCecelia? How dare you come!â
Cecelia turned around when she heard the womanâs shout.
Mizey walked in angrily. When she saw her grandparents and most of the people of the Songo family there, she immediately complained.
âGrandpa! Grandma! Do you know that this is the woman who broke into the new product launch conference today? She is the one who disrupted the conference, and made me and my eldest brother embarrassed in public!â
âI have heard about this matter. It is indeed inappropriate for Cecelia to do this. But anyway, she has just returned to the Songo family. She is a relative and a guest. We must treat her well.â
Carol said calmly.
Mizey was very angry when she saw her grandma saying such words. She went over to hold Alfredâs arm and said. âGrandpa, what do you think? We put so much effort into preparing for the new product launch conference, but she messed it up! And she asked me to apologize in public! I am mad about this. Isnât this embarrassing the Songo family?â
From Mizeyâs words, Cecelia got a piece of information.
For this new product launch press conference, Alfred knew everything, and he indulged and permitted it.
Why?
The Songo family obviously did not produce real Fragrant Clothes, but why did Alfred allow Mizey and the others to hold this new product launch conference?
What was the purpose?
Cecelia was thinking of this and wondering what Alfred would say.
âEnough! Mizey, I know it. It doesnât matter if the new product launch conference fails. Letâs take it as a lesson. The Songo family has not developed the real Fragrant Clothes. Itâs not a bad thing to be revealed by our relative now than by outsiders in the future.â
âCecelia is the granddaughter of your Grandaunt Cassie. She may have taught Cecelia the method of making the fragrant clothes. In the future, you should humbly ask Cecelia for advice, do you understand?â
Alfred lectured his eldest granddaughter strictly, but his tone showed his doting.
Mizey didnât listen to him at all. She glanced at Cecelia angrily and asked in a suspicious tone. âWhat can she know? Is it possible that she can really make Fragrant Clothes?â
Mizey asked casually. Her words suddenly caused everyone to turn around to look at Cecelia.
Cecelia felt uncomfortable being stared at by everyone. What came to her mind suddenly aroused a burst of surprise.
She seemed to have figured out what the real purpose of their press conference was. Was this their purpose?
