She&#8217;s not my granddaughter-in-law!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The old woman was slightly surprised, &#8220;Are they your grandchildren?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Just now, Bryson looked at Audrey with such a doting gaze. They seemed to love each other so much, so she thought they were husband and wife. But she never expected that they were actually siblings.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;That&#8217;s right!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The old woman said, &#8220;Your grandson and granddaughter are really good-looking.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Kylee raised her chin proudly, &#8220;Of course, they are my grandson and granddaughter. They should be pretty.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The old woman sized up Audrey.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Well, does your granddaughter have a boyfriend?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Not yet!&#8221; Kylee replied and sighed.<\/p>\n<p>The old woman&#8217;s eyes lit up. Audrey didn&#8217;t feel so good about her expression.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;My grandson also doesn&#8217;t have a girlfriend. He sets up a company and the benefits are quite good. Why don&#8217;t we arrange an appointment for them?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Kylee looked at her vigilantly.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I haven&#8217;t seen your grandson before. How can I introduce my granddaughter to your grandson?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The old woman took out her phone and showed the picture to Kylee.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Here. Let me show you a picture of my grandson. Isn&#8217;t he very handsome?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Madam Cordova took the phone and her eyes lit up when she saw the picture.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Your grandson is really handsome.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Audrey said, &#8220;&#8230;.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Yep, I&#8217;ve told you. Let&#8217;s decide the time for their appointment.&#8221; The old woman suggested with beaming eyes.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Sure.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Seeing that Kylee was about to arrange an appointment for her, Audrey quickly grabbed Kylee&#8217;s arm and pulled her to the side.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Grandma, you don&#8217;t know her at all. How can you introduce me to her grandson?&#8221; She whispered.<\/p>\n<p>Kylee smiled and patted Audrey&#8217;s arm, &#8220;I think that man is not bad, and his conditions are also quite good. Besides, what if he is really good and destined to be your Mr. Right? I&#8217;ll decide this for you.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>After that, Kylee turned around and exchanged phone numbers with the old woman. Then they discussed about the time and place.<\/p>\n<p>Audrey said, &#8220;&#8230;.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Audrey felt like she was going crazy.<\/p>\n<p>However, Bryson, who was standing beside, had an indifferent expression and didn&#8217;t feel this had anything to do with him. And he didn&#8217;t plan to help her at all.<\/p>\n<p>&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>After Madam Cordova bade farewell to that old woman, they continued shopping.<\/p>\n<p>They first went to the vegetable area, picked up some vegetables for lunch, and also bought some fish and meat.<\/p>\n<p>Bryson just stood behind them and kept silence, because he didn&#8217;t know anything about cooking.<\/p>\n<p>Leaving the vegetable area, they went to the seasoning area.<\/p>\n<p>Here, Audrey bought what she needed, and Kylee happily walked around.<\/p>\n<p>Noticing that Bryson was watching at a bag of seasoning for pickled fish, Audrey quietly walked to Bryson while Kylee was seriously looking at something.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Mr. Bryson.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Bryson&#8217;s gaze shifted from the seasoning to Audrey.<\/p>\n<p>Someone was passing by and about to knock into Audrey. Bryson&#8217;s expression changed and he stretched out to embrace Audrey in order to protect her from falling over.<\/p>\n<p>Audrey was shocked. After a few seconds, she quickly pushed Bryson away. She felt too embarrassed to look into his eyes.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Thank &#8230; thank you.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;What did you want to say?&#8221; Bryson looked around carelessly.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I wanna say that just now grandma arranged an appointment for me and she asked me to meet someone tonight!&#8221; Audrey said awkwardly.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;And then?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Audrey was very anxious. &#8220;I don&#8217;t want to go on a blind date for the time being, so can you tell grandma to cancel the appointment tonight?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Audrey said, &#8220;&#8230;.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The appointment was not cancelled.<\/p>\n<p>Audrey looked at Bryson doubtfully.<\/p>\n<p>However, he only stared at the newspaper and did not even glance at her.<\/p>\n<p>Audrey was a little angry.<\/p>\n<p>Bryson had already promised her, but in the end, he didn&#8217;t say anything to Kylee!<\/p>\n<p>She gritted and still wanted to say something, but Kylee kept urging her.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Elliana, don&#8217;t stand here. Why don&#8217;t you go up and change your clothes?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Audrey was frustrated, but she could only turn around and go upstairs to change her clothes.<\/p>\n<p>However, at this moment, Kylee&#8217;s phone suddenly rang.<\/p>\n<p>Kylee said in surprise, &#8220;Ah, it&#8217;s Mrs. Huntley.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>After Kylee answered the phone, she said happily, &#8220;Hello, Mrs. Huntley. My granddaughter is changing her clothes and she will leave for the appointment immediately.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Suddenly, Kylee&#8217;s tone changed, &#8220;What did you say? Then how is he now? Is he alright?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Well, that&#8217;s fine since he&#8217;s alright.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;OK, you go to the hospital first. We&#8217;ll resettle a time for the appointment.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Hanging up the phone, Kylee looked at Audrey and sighed.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Elliana, you don&#8217;t need to change your clothes.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Audrey just heard that someone was going to the hospital.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Grandma, what happened?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Just now, Mrs. Huntley called me and said that when her grandson was on the way home, he saw someone who was robbed. As a result, he was injured when he saved that person and was sent to the hospital.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Audrey said, &#8220;&#8230;.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>How could this happen?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-3371","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/3371","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/chapter"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3371"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
