Chapter 392
“No, I am not aware of that.”
“Do you think it’s because Dylan isn’t interested in Callic, so he turned me down indirectly?”
“You really should mind your own business and just mind your own business. Let young people sort out their own affairs. Why do you worry so much?” My mother scolded.
“I’ve been watching Dylan since I was young and I know he’s a very dependable kid. Callie is also a good kid. I will be relieved if the two end up together.”
“Do you feel relieved? What does that have to do with you?” I asked.
“You heartless son! It’s all because of you!” Looking at me. I understood that my mother was blaming me for rejecting marriage to Dylan at that time, despite being engaged, so my father felt that he had wronged Dylan.
In any case, it didn’t make much sense. Although I didn’t agree to marry Dylan in the end and I made things difficult for my dad, as Callie was in the picture!
“You two don’t need to feel sorry for Dylan. I’ll make it up to you by introducing you to a drop-dead gorgeous girlfriend. Will that make you feel better?”
“Aha! Didn’t you say you didn’t know about Dylan’s relationship? And now, you’re telling me you’re going to introduce him to a girlfriend, so does that mean he’s not in a relationship? My father caught me lying
“I really don’t know about their relationship status. Previously, I introduced my colleague to him. They got to know each other and even exchanged contact numbers, but I didn’t ask how it went.”
“Serious? How is the person? She is good?” my father asked..
“Of course! She is beautiful, smart and very talented,” I replied.
Is she as pretty as Callic? Seeing my dad acting shady, I felt a twinge of irritation. He gave me the impression that Callie was the fairest of them all.
“Anyway, he said she’s so much prettier than I am.”
At this point, my mother changed the subject and suggested, “You should bring Lily to the Tyson Family cocktail party this Sunday.”
Nodding, my dad said, “I thought so too. It’s been 5 years since Lily has participated in these social occasions and it’s time for you to build your network”.
Surprised, I didn’t expect young master Tyson to invite my father. Thinking about it, I thought it wouldn’t be convenient if I went to the cocktail party with my father, so I declined: “Dad, why don’t you go with Mom?”
“Why? You do not want to go? Or are you ashamed to go with your old man?” my father questioned.
“It’s not that. Young Master Tyson has invited Isabella and I, so we will go together.”
“What about Jeremy?” My dad still hadn’t heard about Jeremy’s injured leg.
“He injured his leg, so it will be inconvenient for him.”
“Oh, I understand.” Looking at my mom, my dad said, “At first I thought I’d bring Lily, but since she already has an invite, I’ll bring Callie then.”
Without any objection, my mother said, “Great! I understand you wanted Dylan to bring Callie, but either way, you can just bring Callie with you.” Intrigued, I looked at my dad. “Dad, why do I get the feeling you are trying to pave the way for Callic?”
