Chapter 279
Charles was a sweet talker, and Sebastian was not an unreasonable man. He knew his limits, and after all, this was Charles, his former student.
He knew what sort of character Charles possessed. Otherwise, he would not even have bothered introducing him to Noelle a couple of months before. Back then, he had hoped a relationship would blossom between the two and only stopped willing it to happen when Noelle refused.
He was not expecting Charles and Noelle to become an item of their own accord after he gave up trying.
When he heard the respectful way Charles spoke to him, all the anger Sebastian previously felt completely dissipated. However, he felt the need to put on an act.
“Hmph, don’t think this sweet talk can fool me! I’m telling you, you’d better provide me with a proper explanation. I’m sure you know the kind of temper that have!”
“Of course, I will, sir. I’m sure you know the sort of character I am, sir!” Charles finally managed to cajole Sebastian.
He glanced at Noelle before adding, “Grandpa, since Noelle and I are already married, when would you like to have an official meeting?” Charles was extremely detail–oriented. “Though you’re my teacher, my current identity has still changed since I’m now Nelly’s husband. I think it requires a formal meet–up.” “Yes, that’s a must!” Sebastian marveled to himself at how Charles had thought of everything and felt even more gleeful when he thought of the fact that the old coot from the Shaw family did not yet know of Charles and Noelle’s marriage. “If that’s the case, why don’t you two drop by when you’ve got the time?”
“Alright!” Charles chuckled. “I’m available tomorrow. What about you, Grandpa?”
“Let’s set it for tomorrow, then!”
