More substituted alkenes are lower in potential energy than less substituted alkenes due to increased hyperconjugation. Draw the hyperconjugation model that shows the overlap between an antiperiplanar C-H bond and a p-orbital of an alkene.

I'm doing a retrosynthetic disconnection of the molecule on the right using only styrene as a carbon source. I can make the reagents, but I am stuck on this last step. I'm hoping that the Grignard reagent adds to the less substituted carbon on the alkene, but I'm worried it will react with the carbonyl. Is there anything I can do to make the Grignard add where I want it, or does it already?
