Masked In Nobility: Secrets Of Mrs. Chavez by Selina Gorges

Ronald and Walter turned to James with puzzled expressions, both exclaiming, “Where did you get a granddaughter from?”

They had just been skeptical, but now it was confirmed that this old man was definitely losing his mind. They thought, ‘With only Michael as his grandson, where could a granddaughter come from?‘ Ronald said nothing and headed into the house, leaving the other two baffled. They thought, ‘Is there someone else who’s lost their mind?‘

Jase called out to Ronald, who was about to head inside with his cane. “What are you up to now?”

Ronald stopped in his tracks at the words. “No way, I need to get a psychologist for this old fool. His mind is definitely not right. Poor old friend, he’s been burning the midnight oil in the lab, and now he’s completely lost it.”

James was furious upon hearing this, jumping to his feet to rebut, his voice strong. “The granddaughter I’m talking about is my newly recognized god–granddaughter. What are you three old fools thinking?”

The three old men were left speechless, wondering why this guy, at his age, was still getting into the business of recognizing relatives.

Ronald turned back, scrutinizing James with doubt etched on his face. “Are you sure you’re not the one with mental issues?”

James’s face turned red with anger as he repeatedly insisted that he was perfectly fine. The scene was quite comical–three men looked on, their expressions a mix of confusion and skepticism, watching as he passionately defended his sanity.

Yusef stood at the doorway, his eyes twitching. He couldn’t shake the feeling that this scene made all four of these high- ranking elders look a bit unhinged.

Jase raised his head and asked James, “What made you think of adopting a granddaughter? Are you trying to find a wife for Michael?”

This was the only reason Jase could think of; James was a man of high social standing, and anyone he acknowledged as a granddaughter would certainly rise to prominence. He wasn’t the type to act irrationally, after all.
