A Replacement Bride

Chapter 162

"By the way, Grandpa wants to know if you have the time to visit and have dinner with him." After Joaquin took care of the glass bottle, he recalled Zachary's invitation over the phone a few days ago and felt the pulsing in his temples.

"What?" Katherine shot him a confused glance as she didn't immediately catch his words.

"We don't have to go if you're busy. The elders are easily bored, so they need to find some way to entertain themselves." Pursing his lips, he suggested a second option as he was worried that she wasn't willing to socialize with the Fosters.

"I'm okay with it since I'm free lately. Just tell me once you have set up a time for it." She instantly remembered the kind old man who attended the wedding last time. Zachary had left a good impression on her as he wasn't an overbearing and unreasonable old man of some kind. Besides, she could tell Zachary adored Joaquin very much.

The mention of Zachary also reminded her that he gifted her something during the wedding. However, she was exhausted after that and forgot about its existence ever since. She made a mental note to bring along some presents when visiting the Fosters later.

After Katherine gave Joaquin a firm reply, she walked into the kitchen and poured herself a glass of water with something in her mind.

He raised his brows at her unexpected answer. Standing still for a moment to digest the thought, he called Zachary later and informed Zachary that she would be visiting.

The two set the date on the second day's night. After Joaquin told her the time, she agreed absent-mindedly at first before she pondered for a moment and asked, "What does your grandfather like?"

"Grandpa? He likes gardening and is interested in oil paintings." He answered in autopilot but soon added, "You don't have to bring anything. You're not a guest, you're a family."

"I understand," Katherine replied with a short answer and paid no more attention to him.
