Horace and His Granddaughter
“Exactly. After all, young people simply have to interact with each other more.”
As more and more people tried to introduce their daughter to Remus, the ladies were eventually able to
guess what the birthday feast was about. Thus, they all bashfully looked at Nicholas and Kieran,
although most of the attention was focused on the former.
After all, they were attracted by the cool and indifferent aura from Nicholas, which was something
lacking in Kieran’s approachable and amiable nature. However, Nicholas didn’t bother to even look at
them despite their interest in him.
Nevertheless, Kieran was able to sense something wrong because he finally understood what his
grandfather was up to. This is not a birthday feast at all. Grandpa is trying to organize a matchmaking
session for Nicholas instead. At the thought of that, he nervously peeked at his brother, only to notice
the calm look on his face. “Nicholas, did you already know what Grandpa is up to from the beginning?”
Nicholas looked askance at Kieran without saying a single word, although the look on his face gave
him away. Despite his frustration with Remus’ action, Nicholas reluctantly accompanied his grandfather
while greeting the other guests with Kieran. During the break, he found a chance to confront Remus
about his ulterior motive behind his birthday feast. “What’s all this about tonight?”
“It is whatever you think it is,” Remus said with a cold grunt. “If you won’t do it, I’ll do it for you.”
While Nicholas’ face darkened glacially, Kieran quickly sensed the tension between his grandfather and
brother. Worried that Nicholas might just walk off in a fit of pique, he immediately approached the
former and whispered, “Look, you don’t have to take Grandpa’s words so seriously because there is
nothing he can do either if you won’t cast an eye on those ladies.”
“Kieran, what did you say to your brother?” Remus glared at Kieran with a stern look on his face.
In response, Kieran only timidly rubbed his nose and replied, “N-Nothing.”
Remus then shot a gaze at Kieran while something seemingly crossed his mind. “Your brother will stay
with me while you help your parents with the guests. Go now.” Upon hearing the old man’s words, the
brothers could sense his determination to find Nicholas a woman he could marry, but in order to do
that, he needed Kieran out of the way.
However, Nicholas wasn’t having any of it as he glared at Remus and showed his stance. “You’re only
wasting your time and energy because I won’t change my mind, no matter what you do.”
At that moment, an old man showed up at the entrance with his granddaughter. It turned out that the
guest was Remus’ long-lost friend, Horace Muller, who had been living abroad over the years. His
granddaughter was Wanda Muller, Nicholas’ schoolmate back in the day.
While Wanda had returned from overseas to visit her grandfather, they happened to catch Remus’
birthday feast just in time and eventually decided to come for the occasion. When the old man walked
up to Remus, he apologetically said, “I was a little occupied during the day, so I apologized for coming
this late.”
“No worries. I’m still happy that you made it in the end.” Remus gave the older gentleman a pat on the
shoulder and sighed. “It’s been a while since we last met.” He then shifted his attention to the lady
standing beside Horace and smiled amiably at her. “This must be Wanda, I presume. You’ve grown to
become a pretty girl since we met years ago.”
“Happy Birthday, Mr. Sawyer,” Wanda responded to Remus elegantly like a graceful princess.
“Great. Great,” Remus replied with an affirmative hum, expressing the satisfaction he felt toward
Wanda. Gazing at the tender lady before him, he then turned his attention to his charming grandson,
Nicholas, whom he thought would be a perfect match with Wanda. “Nicholas, why don’t you say hi to
Mr. Muller and Wanda?” He tried to urge Nicholas.
“Greetings, Mr. Muller and Miss Muller.” Nicholas nodded at the duo.
In the meantime, Horace sized Nicholas up, feeling amazed to see the latter. “Your grandson’s
reputation precedes him. After all, I kept hearing people say how Nicholas was more outstanding than
his seniors were when I was living abroad. Now that I finally meet him in person, it seems to me he is
even more charming now than you were back then.”
