When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him (Cecilia and Nathaniel)

Chapter 1924 You Are Far Too Kind

Alec's brother, Allen Leighton, was a married man, and it was common knowledge among the upper echelons of Tudela.

If Miranda were to publicly suggest him as a potential match for Chelsea, it would undoubtedly cause embarrassment for herself.

Kingston and Phoebe would certainly not approve of the marriage between the two families either.

Miranda planned to keep them in the dark for the time being. If Chelsea and Allen spent time together, there was a possibility she might develop feelings for him.

Phoebe found herself momentarily speechless.

"Absolutely, you're right about that," she said with a lighthearted laugh. "If you truly manage to find a good match for Chelsea, I'll be forever grateful."
