Chapter: 867
"Grandpa, I'm afraid we won't spend the night here," Anthony clarified.
“What? But why?"
Michael looked at his grandson and his future granddaughter-in-Law with grievance on his face.
“What is it? Why won't you stay? Am I being annoying? Maria, my manor is very big that we don't even have to stay in one house if you don't want to!"
Maria was at a loss for words. Michael was being like a child who wanted attention.
Since she showed her excellent jade carving skill in front of Michael, his attitude toward her had improved a Lot.
In fact, during dinner, Michael even asked her about the reality show she had attended previously. Michael said that he wanted to watch the recorded episodes if he had the time.
“Grandpa, it's not what you think."
Anthony let out a faint smile and explained, “I happen to be a picky sleeper. It's hard for me to fall asleep if I Lay down on an unfamiliar bed."
“What? Is that true? What's the matter with you?" Raymond muttered in ridicule, but he didn't dare say more.
If Maria was the one who said this, Raymond would not hold back in making trouble for her.
However, it was different since it was Anthony. Raymond didn't have the guts to badmouth about his nephew in front of Michael.
Maria, who was sitting quietly next to Anthony, couldn't help but glance at her fiance several times
Of course, she knew that Anthony was lying. There was no way that he was a picky sleeper.
He only said this for her sake. He knew that Maria woul want to return to the villa tonight. That way, she could use the hibernation pod for her to rest properly.
Anthony did not say anything about Maria's condition because he didn't want Michael to worry. Besides, Raymond was also there.
“Maria, do you know since when did Anthony become a picky sleeper?" Michael was really curious about this, so he couldn't help asking. After all, since Anthony and Maria had Lived together for a while now, Maria should be a bit aware of his fiance's lifestyle.
However, this question caught Maria by surprise. She was not good at lying, especially when she was caught off-guard, so she didn't know what she should say.
“Grandpa, Maria isn't aware of that," Anthony butted in to rescue Maria.
While Michael and Raymond were still confused, Anthony put his hand on Maria's head and patted it gently and slowly
"This girl is a heavy sleeper. Aside from the fact that she don't easily wake up, she will also fall asleep as soon as her back touches the bed."
Hearing this, Maria blushed hard.
She then pressed her Lips and glared at Anthony every chance she got. But when Michael and Raymond saw Maria's expression, both of them thought that she was just being coquettish. From the outsiders’ view, Maria and Anthony Looked like a couple madly in love.
“Humph!"
