“Sterling, the gift is too valuable, | cannot accept it.
Sterling has always had thick skin and a bold personality, but when he first met Grandma Audrey, he felt a sense of inexplicable nervousness.

Sterling’s deep voice spoke, “Grandma, | came to visit suddenly, it may be a bit abrupt, and | don’t have many gifts. | hope you won't mind.”
Danna coughed and said, “I am not your grandmother, you should still call me Madam!”

On the dining table, there were two bottles of extremely high-proof white liquor.

The old lady saw Sterling almost finish a bottle of white wine by himself, and she picked up a piece of spare ribs for him. “Sterling, eat your vegetables.”
“Madam, | was fine, keep drinking”
Audrey tried to persuade, but she couldn't stop him. Seeing him finish another half bottle of wine, she couldn’t bear it any longer and spoke up. “Sterling, you can’t drink anymore.”
Sterling waved his hand at Audrey and looked at Danna with his dark. smoldering eyes “Madam. | know the past has made you biased against me, but whether | can bring happiness to Audrey, you shall see from my future actions.
