The Billionaire's True Heiress From Fake Jewel to Real Crown novel Chapter 1637

"Speaking of which, my grandson is about your age. I'm sure you two would have a lot in common."

Professor Julian smiled warmly, effortlessly steering the conversation.

Claire was speechless. Why was this prestigious doctor suddenly pitching his grandson to her out of nowhere?

Did his grandson even know about this?

Was Eaton, currently grinding through idol training for his next big performance, aware he was being auctioned off?

*Grandpa, are you seriously selling me out?*

"Is your grandson in med school too?" Since Julian hadn't been completely explicit, Claire couldn't exactly blurt out that she had a fiancé.

She decided to just play along with his pivot.

"Heavens, no. He ran off to become a pop star. Signed with some agency while he was still in school."

Professor Julian rarely complained about his family to younger people, but given the golden opportunity, he couldn't resist venting about his frustrating grandson.

"The kid got scouted during his freshman military training, of all things."

"Someone posted a video of him singing online, and it completely ruined his focus on his studies. Now all he cares about is the entertainment industry."

"I know you young people love celebrities, but that industry is ruthless. It's not a place for just anyone."

"My grandson is far too soft-hearted. He's going to get eaten alive out there."

"Plus, aside from his good looks, he doesn't really have any concrete skills."

"I mean, he can carry a tune, but he's strictly an amateur."

Professor Julian spared no expense in roasting Eaton's lack of showbiz talent, though he was bizarrely confident in the boy's physical attractiveness.

Claire studied Professor Julian's face.

It was clear that even in his twilight years, the man had an elegant, striking bone structure. He must have been a knockout in his youth.

Judging by those genetics alone, Eaton was likely gorgeous. And he probably didn't sound like a dying cat if a talent scout had actually signed him.

Meanwhile, in a dance studio miles away, Eaton suddenly sneezed violently in the middle of a routine, blissfully unaware his grandfather was trying to barter him away for medical talent.
