The moment Julian sat down at the table, Grandpa Hughes came straight to the point and asked, “Has the wedding date been set?”
He naturally refers to Julian´s marriage to Yvonne Sullivan. Since the divorce, Yvonne has been in and out of the Hughes family frequently.
Although Julian never made a statement, the family members of both sides and the outside world all considered that the two were together.
The main reason was that Yvonne´s team released various news about her relationship with Julian all day long as if they would be able to get married very soon.
Julian rarely replied at this time, “No, not set yet.”
"Hurry up and get this marriage over with." Grandpa said curtly.
Julian glanced at him. Grandpa didn´t like Yvonne. Although she often came to their house and were very close to his mother, grandpa never met with her.
Therefore, when the old man urged him to marry her as soon as possible, Julian felt puzzled.
Grandpa took a bite of food and chewed slowly. Julian waited for a while before finally hearing him say, “You need to get married so I can find a good man for Emelia.”
Julian almost spewed out the soup in his mouth. He stared at grandpa and asked, “What do you mean?”
Grandpa snorted and said, “What I mean is that I like Emelia very much. From now on, I will take her as a granddaughter and take care of her. Finding a good man for her to rely on is what I want to do for her first.”
Seeing that he didn´t mean to be joking at all, Julian suddenly couldn´t calm down.
He said sternly, “Grandpa, one become brother and sister with his ex-wife, don´t you think that it´s weird?”
The old gentleman was indifferent: “What´s wrong with it? I feel sorry for her and I like her a lot. She has such unreliable father and brother, what will happen to her in the future?”
