The CEO's Wife Is A Demon God's Daughter

Chapter 677: To Unite the Two Families

~ At Sy Residence ~

Mr. Kian Sy and Mrs. Ciara Sy were both surprised to see the table set-up upon arriving home. They saw Alveena and Clifford helping each other in the dining area.

They were fascinated to see that their son and daughter were getting along well lately.

"Mom, Dad, you are back!" Alveena walked over to approach them, hugging and kissing her parents.

Clifford also followed her behind to greet their parents.

"Wow, what's the occasion? Why do I feel like we have a feast tonight? There are lots of dishes being served on the table. Can the four of us finish all of these?"  Their mother asked them both in amusement.

Clifford and Alveena exchanged meaningful glances with one another. They hadn't informed them yet about the Davis Family coming over tonight to join them.

"Mom, I thought grandpa and grandma were coming too? Where are they?" Clifford asked them instead.

"Oh right. Your grandpa just told me that they are on the way now, together with your grandma," Mr. Sy responded.

"Mom, Dad, we have surprise guests tonight. So don't worry about the food. We can finish all of them tonight!" Alveena said excitedly.

"Oh, you invited some friends, my dear? Is Brandon coming too?" Ciara asked them expectantly. 

They were still rooting for Brandon and Alveena to end up together. Ciara and Kian thought that Alveena and Brandon just needed more time to get to know each other before they proceeded to their engagement.

They hadn't seen the news article about Andrew and Alveena yet. Besides, Mr. Miller didn't have any idea before that Alveena was a member of the prestigious Sy Family.

"It's a surprise Mom. You will meet them later." Alveena hugged her Mom, giving her a meaningful smile.

Ciara and Kian just went upstairs to change their clothes. It did not take long when their grandparents arrived.

Grandma Cynthia and Grandpa Jerome were the heads of the Sy Family. Although Grandpa Jerome was retired and had stopped managing the company, he still had influence in making decisions concerning the company. Kian Sy and Clifford often consulted him for advice.

Alveena and Clifford welcomed their grandparents, guiding them to the dining area.

"Wow, it seems that you really prepared for tonight's dinner. Where are your parents?" Grandma Cynthia asked Alveena and Clifford.

"They just change their clothes, grandma. They are joining us after. Come and sit here first." Clifford pulled a chair for his grandma and grandpa. They settled down at the long table  while waiting for others to come.

Alveena checked her phone and saw Andrew's message. They were about to arrive. She was excited since she could finally introduce Andrew to her family.

When her parents joined them, that was the time Alveena and Clifford gave them the gifts she prepared for them. The elders were so touched receiving the gifts from Alveena and Clifford.

"Hmm, my granddaughter and grandson are so thoughtful. We should gather more often and invite your other relatives for family gathering and dinner," Grandpa Jerome suggested. He was pleased knowing that Alveena and Clifford put their efforts in preparing this family dinner.

"Alveena, my dear daughter, who are our guests tonight? What time are they coming?" Ciara asked her curiously.

Alveena was about to answer when her phone beeped. She received a message from Andrew, informing her that they already arrived.

"Mom, they are here! I will just go out to welcome them," Alveena stood up, leaving the dining area in a hurry.

Her parents and grandparents could see the excitement in her eyes. She also looked happy. They became more intrigued about their visitors.

On the other hand, Clifford was just silently sitting on his seat, wondering how their grandparents and parents would react once they saw the Davis Family.

The Davis Family and the Sy Family had been competing in the business world even before they were born. The competition between these two families didn't only start because of the conflict between Clifford and Tristan. The Davis Family and the Sy Family were not on good terms since the beginning.

Clifford was thinking if the long years of competition between the Davis Family and the Sy Family would end tonight. 

'I wonder if my parents and grandparents will approve of Alveena's relationship with Andrew Davis.' Clifford thought to himself.

After a few minutes, Alveena returned to the dining area together with their guests.

"Mom, Dad, Grandma, Grandpa…" Alveena called them.

They turned around only to see Andrew, Lucas, Isabelle and Grandpa Lu standing next to Alveena.

Except Clifford, everyone at the table was shocked beyond belief seeing the Davis Family inside their house. The dining area was engulfed in deafening silence. 

'What are they doing here?'

Their parents and grandparents were looking at Alveena with their questioning gaze. They couldn't believe that the members of the Davis Family were there including the Patriarch, Grandpa Lu.

"Cough! Cough!" Grandpa Lu cleared his throat, breaking the silence.

"Good evening, Mr. and Mrs. Sy, as well as to the Patriarch and Matriarch of the Sy Family. Thank you for having us here tonight. My grandson, Andrew, my family and I are dying to meet you and talk to you." Grandpa Lu spoke up. His gaze swept across the dining area and stopped to meet Grandpa Jerome's eyes.

Grandpa Jerome knitted his brows upon seeing the person he had never imagined to meet tonight. He couldn't hide the displeasure in his eyes as he looked at Grandpa Lu.

Andrew and Alveena, including the rest, also noticed the staring contest between Grandpa Lu and Grandpa Jerome. They could feel the heavy tension building up around them.

Alveena reflexively grabbed Andrew's hand as she suddenly became nervous about this. This was the first time she saw her grandpa with his chilly and frightening expression.

Kian, on the other hand, leaned over to his son Clifford to ask him.

"Son, do you know about this?" Kian whispered to Clifford.

Clifford just nodded his head as a response.

"Eh, what are you both thinking, inviting the Davis Family here? Don't you know that your Grandpa hated Luke Davis so much? Why are they here?"

"To unite the two families." Clifford nonchalantly said to his father.

Kian: "..."
