Chapter 120
Dan was taken aback. “Arrange an engagement?”
His granddaughter was certainly not young, but she showed no inclination to marry, so he could not do much even if he was anxious for her.
Still, he could not resist asking, “May I ask who’s the gentleman you’d be recommending?”
“I’m afraid he’s not from an important family.” Greg started lowballing. “But I’m sure he’ll soon become someone special.”
To be honest, Lane Holdings was insignificant to the upper echelons of Riverton. However, their future was definitely inestimable since they were partnered with Vicky!
“Oh…” Dan was actually not interested–what Greg was saying was that the man he recommended was some average Joe with neither riches nor influence.
Surely his treasured granddaughter should not suffer such… shame!
Still, Greg quickly added, “Hold on, Mr. Zimmer. He’s only in his twenties, and though he may not have influence or riches, he’s already Vicky’s personal consultant. Do you think he would still fall short with such an accomplishment already under his belt?”
Dan was stunned–Vicky’s personal consultant?!
Consultant aside, ‘personal‘ was the key here–anyone who could reach Vicky’s inner circle would definitely be a big deal!
But who could it be? Yara Quill? But it was definitely a man from the way Greg put
It…
Wait… could it be Frank Lawrence?
Frank has certainly been showing up often around Vicky, and she was perfectly respectful to him–just like she would to a personal consultant.
Moreover, Dan himself admired Frank’s knowledge in medicine and his character. If he really did marry Janet, Flora Hall’s influence would definitely rise to the next level!

th that, Dan was all smiles as he said, “Oh, Mr. Marsh. Consider the surprised
would introduce such a perfect fiance for my granddaughter.”
at fereg promptly asked, “You’re saying…?”
Dan nodded. “Well, I think we should let the kids meet at least. Marriage is a serious business after all, and we really should consider their opinions.”
Greg nodded repeatedly. “That’s so considerate of you, Mr. Zimmer! Why don’t- you bring your granddaughter over to Verdant Hotel tonight? Let our families meet while the kids get to know each other.”
“No problem,” Dan agreed without hesitation.
Dan hung up right then, and promptly left work aside to rush into the cauldron room, telling a sweaty Janet, “Dearie, you can put that aside for now. There’s a dinner you and I have to attend tonight.”
“Do I have to? Can’t you go on your own?” Janet asked in confusion.

Her grandfather usually attended such social dinners alone, since the bigwigs
always eager for him to diagnose their various symptoms. In contrast, her presence was inconsequential and she got bored after the first two, so she never attended another ever since.
Dan quickly waved her off. “No, this is different. You’re the star for this occasion.” “Me?” Janet was puzzled. “What’s the occasion?”
“A blind date.”
“What?!” Janet exclaimed, springing to her feet and almost kicking the cauldron beside her.
Shooting her grandfather a look of disapproval, she snapped, “I told you I don’t need that! I won’t go!”
“But you wanted a boyfriend who’s better at medicine than I am, didn’t you?” Dan quickly reasoned. “The man certainly is better than myself, and you’ve met him before.”
“Have I? Who is it?”
