Josefina quickly explained, "Grandpa Brandon, honestly, he's been really good to me. Deciding not to rush into marriage—that's all me, nothing to do with him."
Brandon sighed, "Oh Josie, I've even got the engagement gifts ready."
Josefina was momentarily at a loss for words.
Oliver jumped in, "Grandpa's really eager for us to get hitched. Just mention those gifts, and he'd be knocking on the Harrison family's door in no time."
Looking to change the subject, Josefina handed Brandon the painting she brought. "Grandpa Brandon, here's a painting I did for you."
Brandon unrolled the painting, his face lighting up with joy. "This is marvelous, simply marvelous. I adore it."
With the conversation shifting, Josefina thought it was a good moment to make a quick exit.
Just as she was about to speak, Bennett's phone buzzed.
Bennett stepped aside to take the call. "Really?"
His voice caught everyone's attention.
After hanging up, Bennett announced excitedly, "Sir, we've found some news about your second son!"
Brandon was taken aback. Could it be that his son, who had run away years ago, was finally found?
He had feared his youngest was gone forever, but now, there was hope of seeing him again.
Bennett continued, "The private detective is still on the case. Apparently, they ran into him today and managed to get a glass he'd used for a DNA test. It's a match! But unfortunately, they've lost sight of him again."
Brandon sat back down, his expression a mix of sorrow and relief. "As long as he's alive, that's something. That's something..."
He drifted into memories, his eyes clouded with a deep sadness.
...
Oliver and Josefina stepped out together.
