"Actually..." Minerva sighed softly and said to Mashauva, "Have you ever pondered on your mother's words?"

"I'm sorry?"

Mashauva did not quite understand where Minerva was going with it.

"About Bruno having a girlfriend in the future." Minerva knew Mashauva had always been simple-minded. All she cared about was food, so Minerva could only nudge her.

"I mean, have you ever thought about not allowing Bruno to have a girlfriend?"

"Why would I do that?" Mashauva thought that she had no right to do that. "I'm not his biological sister. What right do I have to interfere in his affairs?"

"Yeah, but you two are childhood sweethearts. You still can't make sense of it yet, so you can't do anything about it. But what if you have a different identity?"

Mashauva was even more confused. "Different identity?"

With that, Minerva thought she should stop trying to hint at her. She smiled and said, "You still can't make sense of it yet, or perhaps you have never given it any thought before. We can talk more after you've had an epiphany."

After that, Mashauva couldn't stop thinking about dwelling on it. Besides being Bruno's sister, who else could she be to interfere in his affairs?

She could not figure it out, so she went home and told her mother about it.

Cassie was a little surprised when she heard what Mashauva had told her. She took Mashauva's hand and pressed on, "Did Madam Minerva really say that to you?"

Mashauva nodded.

"Mom, what is Madam Minerva trying to say? Other than being Bruno's sister, what other identity can I take to interfere with his affairs?"

Mashauva may not have understood it, but Cassie knew what Minerva was trying to tell her all too clearly. The Yardley family had not brought it up for many years, and she didn't want to be the first one to bring it up either. Who would've thought they'd bring it up again.

But looking at her foolish daughter, she knew it was likely that she had never thought about them becoming a couple at all.

Cassie was somewhat distressed. She wondered if she should hint to Mashauva or wait a little longer.

Bruno was now a sophomore in college. Although he never had a girlfriend, it doesn't mean he wouldn't in the next couple of years. After all, love couldn't be stopped if it was fated.

However, Mashauva still couldn't make sense of it yet. If Cassie were to tell her now, it would only cause more headaches for Mashauva.

She thought Bruno was outstanding, and she'd want nothing more than for him to be her son-in-law. However, despite her liking for him, her daughter's feelings came first.
