In Love, Never Say Never (Ashton Fuller and Scarlett Stovall) novel Chapter 237

The old man nodded and remarked, “Ah, like the color. A beautiful name for a beautiful lady.”

“You’re too kind, Mr. Bauman.” I smiled broadly.

His turbid eyes lit up slightly. “Since Marc made the effort to introduce you to us, it means that he cares about you. It’s very rare for a woman to catch his eye.”

“Shush! What nonsense are you spouting, old man?” Sophia castigated him with a stern expression. “You think you’re mister know-it-all, don’t you?”

Anthony grinned sheepishly. “The younger generation have their own way of thinking. Even if we can see through their thoughts, we have to keep it to ourselves, or we’ll end up embarrassing them.”

Sophia huffed, “Good that you know!”

Even though I couldn’t fully understand what they were talking about, I found their conversation intriguing. They were almost a hundred years old, but they could still banter back and forth, seemingly younger than they actually were. It was truly a blessing.

In life, not many managed to stay together until the end like them. Instead, most people would separate at some point, then walk their respective paths as they tried to forget the past.

Initially, I didn’t understand why Marcus wanted me to accompany his grandparents. Later on, I realized that every guest had to come up to greet them.

Naturally, they would engage in small talk. As I was lounging with the two elderlies, many of the guests were curious about my identity. Hence, I was introduced to them one after another.

With that, I was able to know which guests were invited.

Zachary attended the banquet with Cameron. It was evident that both of them took great care of themselves. The man looked handsome and dignified, while the woman was gentle and sophisticated. Together, they were a charming middle-aged couple.

Upon greeting Marcus’ grandparents, both Zachary and Cameron noticed me. They stiffened at the same time and looked at Anthony. “Mr. Bauman, this lady beside you is?” Zachary asked.

Anthony smiled and said, “This is Scarlett Stovall. An employee at my grandson Marc’s company. She came here with him today.”

Zachary and Cameron exchanged glances, unable to conceal their shock. “Scarlett?” Their gaze landed on me as mixed emotions flickered in their eyes.

“Mr. Moore, this girl looks really similar to your wife during her younger days. If your family hadn’t already found your daughter, I would’ve mistaken this girl for her,” Louis Stovall, who was almost the same age as Zachary, joked.
