Chapter 39 Jealousy

“Are you sure about this? You are not just saying it because you are fond of my grand-daughter now, are you?” James was having a meal with Mark and the younger man had been discussing about Julia’s promotion the entire time.

“I am sure of it. Julia is a brilliant woman, she could easily adapt herself in the new environment and made an excellent progress at work, I think she definitely deserves this promotion.” James smiled as he heard it.

“If someone like you could speak so highly of my grand-daughter, then it must be true. I understand, I will promote her. I think the others would think it’s fair as well. Not that I care about what the others are saying.”

“Well, this is a good period in her life, not only is she an engaged woman now, she is also getting a promotion. My grand-daughter had gone far from where she started. I’m so proud of her.” He stated.

“What? Engaged? Julia is engaged?” Mark asked, slightly surprised by the news.
