You Complete Me novel (Skylar and Coralie) novel Chapter 445

"He's..." Xenia didn't expect Augustine to ask her this. She smiled awkwardly and replied, "We broke up."

"Why?"

Augustine immediately grew slightly anxious when he heard that his precious granddaughter had broken up with her boyfriend.

Xenia was already not young at this age. As her grandfather, he hoped his granddaughter could enjoy a good marriage. He also remembered the excitement that Xenia had when she told him that she had a boyfriend.

"Well, Grandpa, it's normal for young people to have an on-and-off kind of relationship, isn't it?" Xenia was afraid of Augustine's interrogation, so she quickly raised her glass and said, "Grandpa, it's Thanksgiving today. I wish you a happy holiday. From now onwards, I'll be accompanying you every Thanksgiving."

Seeing his granddaughter like this, Augustine was filled with sadness. Although he clanged his wine glass with Xenia's, after taking a sip, Augustine pressed on, "Sweetheart, tell me the truth, is it because of the question you asked me last time?"

"Which one?"

"That his mother was not willing to attend the wedding."

The experienced Augustine could easily guess Xenia's intention at once.

Xenia had tried to ask this question last time, and suddenly they had broken up. Augustine knew that Xenia must be afraid of bringing shame to the Lowell Group.

"No, we were not suitable for each other." Xenia knew that Augustine had guessed it, but she did not dare to admit it. "He is a doctor. He works overtime every day and has no time to accompany me."

"But before you were together, didn't you already know that he was a doctor? Didn't you know that he was going to work overtime?"

"I didn't think it was a big deal but it's really different when we're together."

Xenia tried hard to hide the truth, afraid that Augustine would expose her.

Although she was good at lying, she was no master in front of Augustine.

"Call him over after a few days," Augustine said.

Augustine had never met Harvey, so he wanted to meet him. He thought that if he wasn't too bad, then it didn't matter if his mother didn't attend the wedding.

He couldn't let pride affect Xenia's happiness.

"Grandpa, we broke up. How can he come over if we don't contact each other anymore?" "Xenia." As soon as Augustine saw Xenia's reaction, he knew that she had something to hide from him. "You are my most precious granddaughter. You've never talked about your boyfriend all these years so I know that you really like this guy..."

"It's... It's not that I like him very much either."

"Well, regardless of whether you have broken up or not, I want to see him. Why don't you call him now and let's have a talk?"

Augustine's mind was set.

"There's no need for that. I don't have his number."

"Tell me what his name is and I'll ask my investigator."

"Grandpa, I'll leave if you continue with this."

This was the first time that Xenia had seen Augustine so persistent. He kept requesting to see Harvey again and again.

"Alright, alright." Realizing that Xenia was really angry, Augustine quickly said, "Forget it, I just wanted to care about my darling granddaughter's life. Since you don't want me to get involved in it, I won't be."

"Grandpa, I will find a better grandson-in-law for you in the future."

"Yeah, you can choose any one of them. It's fine as long as you like him."

Augustine smiled happily and took another sip of wine. In his mind, having Xenia's company was good enough, so he didn't want to do anything else.

Although Augustine didn't care whether Harvey's parents would attend their wedding or not, Laura still refused to give up.

When Harvey returned home with his things, Laura wasn't around. He immediately asked, "Dad, where's Mom?"

"Headed to the spa."

Rudolph Felton, Harvey's father, was reading the newspaper on the sofa alone.

Harvey had an older brother in his family and Rudolph had already retired, allowing the next generation to take over their family birthright. His life was considerably more leisurely.

Although Harvey was her son, they didn't have many chances to gather. Harvey had gone abroad to study at a young age and Laura didn't seem to be very close to him.

"Mom, she's not crazy. She was just angry that day."

"How could you kick someone else's car to vent your anger when you get angry? Have you seen other daughters of elite families doing this?"

Laura put down her bag, changed into her slippers and walked towards the bedroom.

"Mom, she's marrying me, not you. Why are you doing this? You used to gossip about Skylar's mother. Now, what's the difference between you and her?"

Harvey was a little anxious and he immediately brought up this matter.

The upper circle of A City was so small, so everyone had heard a little about what Lillian had done. Laura had also mocked Lillian for losing her status over such a small thing.

"Harvey, why did you think I have no objection to your brother's wife? A lady from an elite family should behave likewise. This will affect the future generations. It's not your personal business."

"If I don't get married, I won't even have a descendant."

"What?" Laura's hand paused as her expression fell. "You just can't let her go, can you?"

"Yes. Either I marry her, or I won't get married for the rest of my life."

Harvey stated firmly.

He had met Xenia. If he didn't marry her, he would always have her in his heart. Even if he looked for someone else, it would be unfair to that person.

"Sure, you can marry her. When you both move back here with us, I'll teach her well."

Laura took off the earrings and turned around to say.

Although she had only seen Xenia once, she knew very well that Xenia was a prideful girl. If the two were to live together, it would be chaos.

Harvey realized this as well.
