It was getting a bit too much for me, what with the law being thrown into the mix and all.
"I don't care about any laws," Grandpa Rodney declared with the stubbornness of a mule. "The fact is, Sinclair's in his thirties and still not dating or married. That's not normal. Just don't come home with a husband one day, or I'll have no place to hide my face."
Sinclair, ever the comedian, grinned, "I can promise you one thing, Grandpa—I won't bring home a husband."
Grandpa puffed up like an old bullfrog, while Fanny quickly stepped in. "Grandpa, don't push Uncle Sinclair. If he doesn't like it, forcing him won't make him happy."
"Why are you siding with him?" Grandpa shot Fanny a glare.
I chimed in, "Because Fanny and I both met those society ladies today, and not one of them is good enough for Uncle Sinclair."
I was going with the flow, calling Sinclair "Uncle" just like Fanny did.
"I don't believe it," Grandpa grumbled.
Fanny nodded earnestly. "Really, Grandpa. Those ladies are all about gossip and backbiting. They were gossiping about Uncle Sinclair just now."
Sinclair looked at her, and Grandpa's interest was piqued. "Oh? What were they saying? That he's still single in his thirties?"
"No," Fanny replied. "They were plotting how to snag Uncle Sinclair and become the lady of the Perez family. Their intentions aren't pure."
"Well, isn't that a good thing?" Grandpa chuckled, clearly amused.
"Do you like women who play games?" Fanny asked, knowing full well Grandpa's dislike for such antics.
Grandpa fell silent, memories of a close call with a cunning woman in his youth flashing across his mind.
Fanny shot me a look, and I quickly added, "Mr. Anderson, why not let Fanny and me handle finding a girlfriend for Uncle Sinclair?"
