Next day evening, both Kevin and Jason went to the party in Grand Lake. their grandfather has already arrived and was chatting happily with his friends.

Others who saw them started talking about them.

"Who is he, the one beside Kevin Graner "
" Yhaa, he is so tall and handsome. I think I never saw him before. "
" He is Kevin's brother. One of the Graner's "
" No wonder he's so handsome. He's from Graner's ! "
" But, when did, Kevin had a brother. I never heard before. "
" I think he is Mr. James Graner's son. The one who assists, Mr.Marcus Graner in the company."

While others were judging them just by their looks, they greeted their grandfather. And Kevin took Jason to show him around and introduce others to him.

Just then, Mr.Rowan Avelon, along with his granddaughter arrived the venue.

Rowan Avelon and Richard Graner are friends since they were young. They went through a lot, but they still cherish their friendship. They always wanted to become relatives. But their children did not give them a chance. Rowan Avelon does not have a daughter and had only sons. The only daughter of Richard Graner, loved someone else. Now they want to fulfil their wish through their grandchildren. The main reason behind the party is to tie a bond.

Rowan Avelon met his friend Richard Graner, and they greeted each other affectionately.

Rowan Avelon showed the girl beside him to Richard Graner and said, " Richard, meet my granddaughter Aaron Avelon. Aaron, this is grandpa Richard from Graner's"

Aaron smiled and said, " Good evening, Grandpa Richard. My grandfather said a lot about you, how great a man you were. I always wanted to meet you. It's my pleasure meeting you today "

Hearing that Richard Graner was surprised and was also happy. He heard that, this girl is quite capable. But never expected she would be even more than that. It would be nice if she can become his granddaughter-in-law.

He had a big smile and said to her, " Your grandfather is just exaggerating. I'm not that great. I'm just like him. A normal businessman at most. But thank you for your kind words. "

He turned towards Rowan Avelon and said, " I like your granddaughter a lot. She's such a lovely girl. You are really blessed. "

Rowan Avelon felt really happy after hearing those words.

" You said, you would bring both of your granddaughters together with you. But I only see one. " said Richard Graner.

Rowan Avelon sighed and said, " What should I do with that naughty girl. She just returned home two days back and now already left saying she's gonna miss her classes. "

Richard Graner just smiled and said, " young people nowadays are so busy. We shouldn't expect them to stay with us."

" It's not just that, these days she has become even more naughtier together along with her brother. I think, I pampered her too much." Saying that Rowan Avelon pulled a long face.

Aaron said in a low voice, " Grandpa, she's naughty only around you, because you are her grandfather. Moreover she's just a child. "

Hearing that, the two old men laughed.

Richard Graner said, " It seems that, miss Aaron likes her sister a lot."

" Ofcourse, you know Aaron's aunt died early. Ever since then, its Aaron who took care of her. More than a sister, she's like a mother to her. She spoils her a lot " said Rowan Avelon with a deep tone.

" Come on Rowan, you are really blessed with your grandchildren. You are making me envy you. "

Rowan Avelon smiled and said, " what's there to be jealous about. Even though I have two lovely granddaughters, I even have a stupid grandson."

Hearing that Aaron pulled his sleeve and said, " Grandpa "

Rowan Avelon looked at her said, " It's ok. Richard is not an outsider. He knows everything. " Then he continued to Richard Graner, " You just saw this girl. She wouldn't let anyone slander her brother or sister. She's carrying the whole company's burden alone. "

Aaron interrupted him, " Grandpa, don't you feel that way. I'm really happy with my work. Moreover both dad and uncle help me a lot. Aayon has his own dreams. You should let him go now."

Rowan Avelon got aggrieved and said, " What kind of a dream is that. Not at all a proper one. He's just bringing shame to the family. "

Watching him, Richard Graner said, " You are better off than me. Your stupid grandson is a lot better than my idiot grandson. Your grandson is at least trying to do something. But mine only knows, how to make trouble. " he got depressed at the thought of him.

Then Rowan Avelon suggested Richard Graner to make him work in the company. And after knowing it kind of showed no effect, he said, " Then send him to my company. I think Aaron can handle him. "

Richard Graner felt really happy but then said, " Do you think it would be ok. After all both my son and son-in-law couldn't bare him and kicked him out. "

Aaron said respectfully, " It's ok grandpa Richard. I think, I can take care of him. But hope you wouldn't mind, if I'm a little bit rude. "

" Of course not at all. I just want him to be a decent person at most. " said Richard Graner happily.

Just when they dropped the conversation, both Kevin and Jason showed up.
