Chapter 17 Finding a Good Man for Emelia
The moment Julian sat down at the table, Grandpa Hughes came straight to the point and asked, “Has
the wedding date been set?”
He naturally refers to Julian´s marriage to Yvonne Sullivan. Since the divorce, Yvonne has been in and
out of the Hughes family frequently.
Although Julian never made a statement, the family members of both sides and the outside world all
considered that the two were together. Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
The main reason was that Yvonne´s team released various news about her relationship with Julian all
day long as if they would be able to get married very soon.
Julian rarely replied at this time, “No, not set yet.”
"Hurry up and get this marriage over with." Grandpa said curtly.
Julian glanced at him. Grandpa didn´t like Yvonne. Although she often came to their house and were
very close to his mother, grandpa never met with her.
Therefore, when the old man urged him to marry her as soon as possible, Julian felt puzzled.
Grandpa took a bite of food and chewed slowly. Julian waited for a while before finally hearing him say,
“You need to get married so I can find a good man for Emelia.”
Julian almost spewed out the soup in his mouth. He stared at grandpa and asked, “What do you
mean?”
Grandpa snorted and said, “What I mean is that I like Emelia very much. From now on, I will take her
as a granddaughter and take care of her. Finding a good man for her to rely on is what I want to do for
her first.”
Seeing that he didn´t mean to be joking at all, Julian suddenly couldn´t calm down.
He said sternly, “Grandpa, one become brother and sister with his ex-wife, don´t you think that it´s
weird?”
The old gentleman was indifferent: “What´s wrong with it? I feel sorry for her and I like her a lot. She
has such unreliable father and brother, what will happen to her in the future?”
He sighed guiltily. “Well, it was me who put her in this situation. If I hadn´t forced you two to marry
before, she might have found a good man by now instead of wasting three years of her life.”
Julian felt depressed, thinking that he seemed to be her grandfather instead of his.
He only realized Emelia wasted her three years, what about him?
Grandpa then asked him thoughtfully, “What do you think of Ezra? Would he and Emelia make a good
match?”
Julian´s face became so gloomy and said, “Do you think such a playboy suits her?”
Grandpa disagreed. “What´s wrong with a playboy? A prodigal who returns to the right track is more
precious than gold. Maybe he will become devoted to Emelia after getting along with her.”
Hearing his words, Julian sneered back at him.
He was waiting to see if Ezra dared to be together with Emelia.
Grandpa was so thrilled about this, so he immediately took out his cell phone and called Ezra.
Ezra and Julian had been friends for many years, and the two families had always been in a good
relationship, so grandpa didn´t take him as a stranger.
After turning on the speaker, grandpa asked Ezra with a smile, “Ezra, what have you been up to
lately?”
Ezra replied teasingly, “You know me. I'm just muddling along all day.”
Then he asked, “Why are you calling, sir?”
“Well, I want to set you up with a girl.”
