Chapter 571
Sebastian said, "Emmert, don't freak Steph out."
"Since she's my granddaughter now, she's my family. You have no say!"
"But Emmert, shouldn't you ask if I'm okay with it."
"Does it matter if you're okay with it?"
Stephanie frowned and said, "Of course it matters!"
"Why don't you want to?"
"Once I agree, I have to treat you like family. At least we're relatives, so I should get my mom's approval, right?"
"When you accepted Ashley as your teacher, you didn't ask your mom, did you?"
"Emmert, have you been snooping on me?"
"If I want you to be my granddaughter, naturally I need to know about you."
"Okay, you have a point. But I need my family's permission for this."
"Fine, I'll give you time. Call your mom right now, I don't believe she'd say no to such a good thing!"
"And there's my pet Silver Fox, he's family too!"
"What kind of family is he!"
"Silver Fox is!" Stephanie insisted.
Sebastian couldn't help but laugh.
"Make your own decision. If you want to accept him as your grandpa, go ahead; if not, he can't force you with me here." Emmert gave him a dirty look.
But in the end, he didn't want to piss Stephanie off, otherwise she'd definitely reject him.
So he said, "He'll listen to you, so as long as you and your mom agree, it's a done deal."
Stephanie said, "I'll ask my mom first, then think about it myself, then get back to you." "No rush, I can wait."
Stephanie thought for a moment, took out her phone, and called her mom.
Marilyn didn't ask who it was, as she knew anyone Sebastian personally introduced must be reliable.
Trusting Sebastian, she let Steph make her own decision.
Stephanie laughed and looked at
Sebastian, "Silver Fox, I'm a bit flustered. Why would Emmert make such a decision all of a sudden?"
"Maybe because your eyes look a lot like his late sister's?"
"Ugh, what kind of reason is that? Isn't there anything else? That reason doesn't convince me at all!"
Sebastian thought for a moment
and then said, "Emmert only had one family member in his life, his sister She passed away and he never married or had kids. Maybe he's afraid he'll have no one to take care of him when he gets old?"
"Well, he could've adopted a grandson! What's the point of having a granddaughter?"
"So in the end, it's because your eyes look like his sister's."
After hearing Silver Fox's words, Stephanie felt a bit sorry for Emmert. He never had a family of his own, and his only relative passed away.

He was so old and yet he was so alone, practically living his entire life in solitude.
She and her mom don't have any relatives now either, so it wouldn't hurt to have a grandpa, right?
If she becomes his granddaughter, even if she doesn't perform well, he wouldn't blame her but instead guide her, right?
She even received such a valuable gift.
She asked, "Emmert, as your granddaughter, do I need to give you money regularly?"
Emmert raised an eyebrow proudly and said, "Do you think I'm short of money? I'm loaded and don't even know how to spend it all!"
