Evelyn shook her head, "When I see Old Mr. Quintin, I just feel this warmth, like he's family. I have this gut feeling that he's my grandpa!"
Old Mr. Quintin looked at Evelyn with kindness in his eyes, "My dear child, you've had it tough out there. When your mother returns, she'll be overjoyed."
"My mother?" Evelyn asked curiously.
"Yes, I've had someone reach out to your mother, and she'll be back soon!" Old Mr. Quintin's voice choked with emotion. "All these years, she never remarried. She's been waiting for you!"
Tears welled up in Evelyn's eyes, "I hope I get to see my mom soon!"
As the group chatted and laughed, dusk was settling in. Gabriel came in from outside, and Old Mr. Quintin immediately shared the news about Evelyn with him.
Gabriel remembered his grandpa mentioning Nana a few times when he was a kid, but he never imagined they'd actually find her after all these years.
And to think, it was Estelle who stumbled upon her at Citadel - what are the odds!
He looked at Estelle with a hint of surprise.
Estelle was looking down, lost in thought.
Gabriel smiled lightly, "If it's true, congratulations, Old Mr. Quintin!"
Old Mr. Quintin eyed Gabriel and then got a bright idea, "Say, Mr. Jarvis, how about we become family? What if we match Nana with Gab for marriage?"
Gabriel objected immediately, "How could we do that?"
Evelyn glanced at Gabriel, his handsome and resolute features causing her to blush and shyly lower her gaze.
Sophia clapped her hands in delight, "I think Old Mr. Quintin's got a point. Evelyn, you don't have a boyfriend, right?"
Evelyn shook her head, "Nope!"
"There you have it - it's fate!" Old Mr. Quintin's face was flushed with happiness.
There was so much for Old Mr. Quintin and Evelyn to catch up on that Old Mr. Jarvis excused himself, leaving the two to talk.
Gabriel followed Old Mr. Jarvis out to the gazebo, where he asked, "Does Evelyn have any distinguishing marks? How can we be sure she's Old Mr. Quintin's granddaughter?"
Old Mr. Jarvis replied, "Nana has a unique red birthmark on her back, and according to Evelyn, she was indeed adopted by new parents when she was about three or four. The birthmark and her story both align with what we know about Nana."
A red birthmark?
Gabriel suddenly thought of Sylvia and shook his head, "Lots of people have birthmarks. Old Mr. Quintin has decided that Evelyn is his granddaughter without a DNA test. What if he's wrong?"
Estelle said gravely, "I originally wanted to have a paternity test done before introducing Evelyn to Old Mr. Quintin, but she showed up on her own accord."
Gabriel added, "It's not too late to do it now, but Old Mr. Quintin doesn't seem to be in a hurry."
Old Mr. Jarvis stoked the charcoal grill and said somberly, "Do you know why Old Mr. Quintin isn't keen on doing the test right away?"

Dear author Lucy, may we please have updates. Thank you....
There's a song currently playing via YouTube and TikToc by LowDii "Touch Me Softly" that makes me think of Norah and Xavier (Gonzalez). Please, I'm looking forward to updates. Thank you for your writing....

As the plot thicken. Adrian is done for and he can't try to control Norah, so he'd probably tattle to Janice who's gone for two weeks. Thank you soooo much for the updates....
These updates were too funny. Thank you so much for the updates....
I forgot to add Amy to the group of pregnant women,since she was the first. Emily and Sylvia better be careful since pregnancy is in the air....
Wow! This is great, both Estelle and Magdalen are pregnant at the same time and I hope that Xavier is Norah neighbor. Thank you for the updates....
