Chapter 171

Rupert’s grandmother, Amanda’s mother, gazed at the young couple with growing approval

The elderly woman leaned toward her youngest daughter and whispered, “Ms. Winters and Rupert make such a perfect match, don’t they? I wonder if Ms. Winters has a boyfriend?”

Amanda smiled and replied, “Don’t worry, Mother. I’ve made inquiries–Ms. Winters is single.”

Upon hearing this, the old lady beamed with delight. “That’s wonderful, simply wonderful.”

Rupert’s grandfather, now eighty–three, still maintained robust health.

The old gentleman, looking sprightly, pushed the menu toward Thalia with a warm smile. “Ms. Winters, please order whatever takes your fancy,”

As the guest, Thalia accepted graciously, taking the menu without hesitation. “Thank you, I will.”

The restaurant served Italian cuisine, and Thalía noted that most dishes were traditional specialties.

Thalia selected several moderately priced dishes that were delicate and fresh–suitable for both the elderly and children.

After making her selections, Thalía handed the menu back to the old gentleman, politely saying, “Grandfather, I’ve finished ordering. Please, go ahead.”

This familiar address of “Grandfather” delighted the old man immensely. He looked at Thalia as if she were already his grandson’s wife.

“Yes, yes, of course,” the old gentleman accepted the menu, smiling broadly.

Anthony Garret observed this exchange, maintaining a neutral expression. Beyond his initial words of gratitude to Thalia, he hadn’t spoken again.

He knew Asher Blackwood.

His company had business dealings with the Blackwood Group.

He had attended Asher’s engagement ceremony last year.

The Blackwood family had invited him and Amanda, but Amanda had been in Australia on business and couldn’t

attend.

Therefore, she didn’t know Thalia was previously Asher’s fiancée.

When Anthony first saw Thalia, he was genuinely surprised for a moment.

However, he was characteristically adept at concealing his emotions, showing no outward sign of his surprise,

He could see that the Lysander family, especially his wife Amanda, was eager to match Rupert with Thalia,

Anthony decided he should find time after dinner to explain to Amanda about Thalia’s relationship with Asher.

The dinner proceeded pleasantly.
