Mission: From Divorcee to Millionaire

Chapter 559

In the cozy confines of the private room, the soothing aroma of tea filled the air.

Gabriel, dressed in a traditional outfit, carried himself with a scholarly grace reminiscent of Callum's, though age had lent him a deeper, steadier presence. He was in the midst of brewing tea.

Selena had seen him a few times at various gatherings but had never exchanged words with him until now. She greeted him warmly, "Hi, Gabriel."

Callum leaned over and gently corrected her, "You should call him Grandfather."

Gabriel looked up, his eyes cloudy yet sharp, assessing Selena with a keen gaze before breaking into a smile. "I see why old Howard has taken a liking to you. You make a stunning granddaughter-in-law." "Please, have a seat."

Callum pulled out a chair for Selena, and they both settled in.

Gabriel didn't mince words. After a sip of tea, he got straight to the point. "I'm too old to dictate what you young folks should do. Since you love each other and can't bear to be apart, I don't want to see Callum wasting away. If marriage is what you want, then by all means, go for it."

Selena was taken aback. She hadn't expected Gabriel to give his blessing so readily, especially after the rocky three years he and Dr. Campbell had endured.
