Chapter 85 Disheartened

Finished

Hearing that, Jeremy felt a headache coming. He then said, “She’s not the one you should be fond of There are some things I can’t tell you. You’d better give up on this idea as soon as possible. I’ll tell the old man to stop matchmake people at will.”

“Uncle Jeremy, you’re being unreasonable! I like Aurelia. All these years, she’s the only one I’ve ever liked. What do you mean, she’s not the one I should be fond of?” Chad wouldn’t give in.

The mindset of the young boy was simple. If he liked something, he would pursue it, regardless of whether it was deemed appropriate or not.

“You could ask Aurelia if she would marry you, or if she could ever come to like you,” Jeremy uttered in a deep voice.

Chad was taken aback for a moment, squinting his eyes. “Uncle Jeremy, don’t tell me you’re also fond of Aurelia? Didn’t you just get engaged? Aren’t you afraid I’ll tell Sylvia?”

The family values of the Gardner family were quite different from those of others. They didn’t condone the trend of keeping mistresses or following the old practice of having multiple wives and girlfriends. Such behavior was strictly forbidden in the Gardner family.

Chad was well aware of the values his family held. If Uncle Jeremy dares to covet the one I love, I’ll fight him to the death!

Jeremy was rendered speechless momentarily. “What utter nonsense!”

“Then give me a convincing reason to let go.”

“The reason is simply impossible,” Jeremy said coldly.

Chad furrowed his brows.

Jeremy continued, “If you ask her, you will naturally get an answer.”

With that, Jeremy hung up the phone.

Chad stared at his phone, lost in thought. He knew Jeremy was not the type to call without reason. Even when rumors of his high school romance circulated, Jeremy didn’t interfere. Now that I’m an adult and even the old man has given his consent, there’s even less reason for Uncle Jeremy to meddle without cause. That means Uncle Jeremy surely knows something about Aurelia. What could he know about her? Could it be the incident that had previously gone viral online? That must be it!

Aurelia had just finished work and was about to drive to the hospital when she received a call from Mabel.

She was told to return to the Quigley residence with Matthew that evening.

Aurelia glanced at the time, realizing there was still enough time to visit Chad at the hospital.

On the road, Matthew called her again.

“Have you finished work?” Matthew asked..

“I just got off work.”
