While they were having dinner together, Old Mrs. Grant brought up how did the conversation between her and Old Mrs. Mason go.
The Masons obviously had family meeting before to talk about Frances and Khalid, so their talk was quite smooth.
They all deemed that Frances and Khalid should get back together, but the Masons had their own worries.
Though the remarriage between Marshall and Katherine hadn’t been exposed to the public yet, Katherine’s pregnancy belly was getting bigger day by day and the public would naturally find out one day.
They got divorced and then remarried which could be that they were real love and would always be with each other no matter what, but if Khalid did the same thing, the public might have other opinions.
They would probably think that men in this family were treating marriage as trifling matter.
So the Masons thought that they should keep Frances and Khalid’s relationship as a secret for now as they won’t do anything crazy anymore.
Old Mrs. Grant then asked Frances and Khalid, “What do you think of this?”
Khalid remained calm and nodded, “It actually makes sense. Actually, we two are old now and don’t care these formalities. We just want to live our own lives, so it didn’t really matter whether we announce our remarriage to the public or not.”
Frances nodded, “Same here.”
Old Mrs. Grant blinked and turned to Frances, “Next question then. When are you guys going to get the marriage certificate? Do you want to wait longer?”
Frances remained silent.
Khalid looked at Old Mrs. Grant and frowned, “Mom, I should be the one asking this question.”
Old Mrs. Grant immediately understood and clapped her hand, “I’m sorry. I’m just asking since we talking about this topic, but Khalid should really be the one asking this question.”
Khalid looked at Frances and said with resignation, “I meant to talk with you about this in the evening, but since we are at it, I don’t want to avoid it anymore.:
He then put down the chopsticks and bowl and searched in his pocket.
Katherine leaned closer to Marshall and murmured, “Did your father buy a wedding ring? Is he going to pop the question!”
Marshall gazed at Khalid and smiled, “Probably.”
Kyle’s face twitched.
Well, why the hell should he come here today?
He was not only laughed at by Katherine and was forced to witness all the Grants showing off their love!
Khalid then really took out a brocade box which was obviously a wedding ring box.
Frances froze and never expected that Khalid would propose to her at this age.
She actually found it satisfying when they made everything clear privately.
She didn’t really care whether they would have a remarriage ceremony or wedding rings.
Khalid couldn’t just get down on his knees and propose to Frances in front of all these people, so he just opened the box and pushed it to Frances.
“Let’s get remarried. Okay?”
Kyle was covering his face with his hand and didn’t want to witness this scene.
