Faux Vows, True Desires novel Chapter 124

"Gramps."

Cecilia called out and said, "I'm not in a rush. When fate comes, I'll naturally have a boyfriend."

Devon glared at her. "Not in a rush? You're already 24. When your parents were your age, your brother was already walking."

"Gramps, times have changed. Besides, isn't it nice to be alone? Free as a bird."

Devon spoke to Trenton, "You hear this? That's why she doesn't have a boyfriend at 24. Plenty of old neighbors wanted to introduce her to someone, but she wouldn't have it. Everyone says she's too picky because she's pretty and won't settle for those guys. They even curse her for ending up with a jerk because she's too choosy, driving me up the wall."

He loved his granddaughter dearly.

Hearing others talk about his granddaughter like that, Devon would get furious and argue.

After so many fights, no one dared to meddle in Cecilia's love life anymore, but people still gossiped behind her back.

Trenton chuckled, "You're a bit too anxious. Do you know how old my grandson is? 29. He'll be in his thirties next year. He's been single this whole time because he's too good for anyone, and I've been losing sleep over his marriage."

"I moved here because I was so angry with my eldest grandson that I couldn't stay at home, and I moved out of sight."

"Devon, we get along well, and I like your granddaughter. What if we try to set them up?"

Cecilia was speechless.

Devon asked, "Why is your grandson still single at 29?"

He cared about Cecilia's marriage, but he wouldn't let her marry just anyone. That could ruin her life.

He had to know the guy's character and ensure that the young people liked each other before giving them his blessing.

"Gramps."

Cecilia called out softly.

"Cecilia, go watch TV and don't disturb me and Trenton's game of chess."

"There's nothing I want to watch. I can't be bothered. I'll just stay here and watch you play chess. I won't interfere."

Trenton looked at Cecilia, making her blush. "Trenton, please don't think about introducing me to your grandson."

"Cecilia, I'm serious. My grandson has been single this whole time, primarily because he's too top-notch and too busy with work. We're in business, so he doesn't have time to date. Just like that, he's almost thirty."

"I've personally taken care of my grandson, and we're very close. I care more about his marriage than anyone else, including his parents. Cecilia, rest assured. Since I'm introducing my grandson to you, I won't let you get hurt."

"I haven't known your grandpa for long, but we get along well. I consider him a dear friend, and I won't let you get hurt."

Trenton's words sounded sincere, and he almost believed them himself.

"You should meet first, get to know each other, then decide whether to be together."
