Chapter 40
Hearing someone praising Bryson and Audrey, Kylee was very proud.
She explained with a smile, "Thank you, but they are my grandson and granddaughter. She's not my granddaughter-in-law!"
The old woman was slightly surprised, "Are they your grandchildren?"
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.
"That's right!"
The old woman said, "Your grandson and granddaughter are really good-looking."
Kylee raised her chin proudly, "Of course, they are my grandson and granddaughter. They should be pretty."
The old woman sized up Audrey.
"Well, does your granddaughter have a boyfriend?"
"Not yet!" Kylee replied and sighed.
The old woman's eyes lit up. Audrey didn't feel so good about her expression.
"My grandson also doesn't have a girlfriend. He sets up a company and the benefits are quite good. Why don't we arrange an appointment for them?"
Kylee looked at her vigilantly.
"I haven't seen your grandson before. How can I introduce my granddaughter to your grandson?"
The old woman took out her phone and showed the picture to Kylee.
"Here. Let me show you a picture of my grandson. Isn't he very handsome?"
Madam Cordova took the phone and her eyes lit up when she saw the picture.
"Your grandson is really handsome."
Audrey said, "...."
"Yep, I've told you. Let's decide the time for their appointment." The old woman suggested with beaming eyes.
"Sure."
Seeing that Kylee was about to arrange an appointment for her, Audrey quickly grabbed Kylee's arm and pulled her to the side.
"Grandma, you don't know her at all. How can you introduce me to her grandson?" She whispered.
Kylee smiled and patted Audrey's arm, "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'll decide this for you."
After that, Kylee turned around and exchanged phone numbers with the old woman. Then they discussed about the time and place.
Audrey said, "...."
Audrey felt like she was going crazy.
However, Bryson, who was standing beside, had an indifferent expression and didn't feel this had anything to do with him. And he didn't plan to help her at all.
...
After Madam Cordova bade farewell to that old woman, they continued shopping.
They first went to the vegetable area, picked up some vegetables for lunch, and also bought some fish and meat.
Bryson just stood behind them and kept silence, because he didn't know anything about cooking.
Leaving the vegetable area, they went to the seasoning area.
Here, Audrey bought what she needed, and Kylee happily walked around.
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.
"Mr. Bryson."
Bryson's gaze shifted from the seasoning to Audrey.
Someone was passing by and about to knock into Audrey. Bryson's expression changed and he stretched out to embrace Audrey in order to protect her from falling over.
Audrey was shocked. After a few seconds, she quickly pushed Bryson away. She felt too embarrassed to look into his eyes.
"Thank ... thank you."
"What did you want to say?" Bryson looked around carelessly.
"I wanna say that just now grandma arranged an appointment for me and she asked me to meet someone tonight!" Audrey said awkwardly.
"And then?"
Audrey was very anxious. "I don't want to go on a blind date for the time being, so can you tell grandma to cancel the appointment tonight?"
"You don't want to go on a blind date?"
"Yes!"
Bryson's gaze became intense, "Sure."
Audrey heaved a sigh of relief and looked at him gratefully, "Thank you, Mr. Bryson."
"You're welcome!" Bryson replied with a look of meaning.
He was just helping himself.
...
After lunch, Audrey watched a movie with Kylee and then she went to take a little nap.
When she woke up, she saw Kylee sitting in the living room, while Bryson sat on the other side on the sofa and was reading the newspaper.
Audrey smiled at Kylee.
"Grandma, what about having pickled fish tonight?" She asked.
"I bought a fish and pickles, and they can be used to cook pickled fish."
When Kylee saw Audrey go downstairs, she frowned and said, "Elliana, why haven't you changed your clothes yet?"
Audrey looked at her T-shirt and jeans.
"What's wrong with the clothes that I'm wearing?"
"The appointment that we've arranged is at 5:30. Of course, you need to dress up properly for the first time, to give him a good impression. Hurry up and change your clothes. Wear the dress you wore when you came here this morning." Kylee muttered.
Audrey said, "...." Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
What happened?
Didn't she already tell Bryson to convince Kylee not to let her go on a blind date? Why was Kylee still urging her to change the clothes?
Could it be that Bryson didn't tell Kylee?
Audrey felt so awkward and she looked at Kylee.
"Didn't you cancel the appointment tonight?" She asked tentatively.
Kylee rolled her eyes and said, "What are you talking about? Hurry up and change your clothes and put on makeup. The appointment is at 5:30. Don't be late."
Audrey said, "...."
The appointment was not cancelled.
Audrey looked at Bryson doubtfully.
However, he only stared at the newspaper and did not even glance at her.
Audrey was a little angry.
Bryson had already promised her, but in the end, he didn't say anything to Kylee!
She gritted and still wanted to say something, but Kylee kept urging her.
"Elliana, don't stand here. Why don't you go up and change your clothes?"
Audrey was frustrated, but she could only turn around and go upstairs to change her clothes.
However, at this moment, Kylee's phone suddenly rang.
Kylee said in surprise, "Ah, it's Mrs. Huntley."
After Kylee answered the phone, she said happily, "Hello, Mrs. Huntley. My granddaughter is changing her clothes and she will leave for the appointment immediately."
Suddenly, Kylee's tone changed, "What did you say? Then how is he now? Is he alright?"
"Well, that's fine since he's alright."
"OK, you go to the hospital first. We'll resettle a time for the appointment."
Hanging up the phone, Kylee looked at Audrey and sighed.
"Elliana, you don't need to change your clothes."
Audrey just heard that someone was going to the hospital.
"Grandma, what happened?"
"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."
Audrey said, "...."
How could this happen?
