Chapter 493 Secretly Dating Behind Parents' Backs
Angela and Scott left together, and Angela said, "Thanks for your help just now."
Scott frowned slightly, "That guy was harassing you like that, and you didn't call the police?"
For some reason, seeing Zander just now made him feel a bit uncomfortable.
"It seems like harassment to me, but the police might not see it that way. Reporting it won't help, and besides, he was introduced by my mom."
Angela was quite speechless; what kind of family does that?
This must have Edith's involvement. She had no idea what kind of spell Edith had cast on her mother to make her so stubborn.
"So you're in such a hurry to get married?"
"What do you mean by that? Do you want to marry me?" Angela looked up at Scott with her bright face.
The lighting was ample, and Angela's expression was very lively, with a hint of bitterness.
Scott's breath hitched, and he turned his face away. "You're overthinking it. I would never marry a woman like you."
"What kind of woman am I? Let me tell you, I'm quite popular. Everyone who has been on a date with me has nothing but good things to say. Look at that guy just now; he wanted to marry me, but I wasn't willing."
Even if she were to marry casually, it would have to be someone she chose.
Scott said, "I really don't understand you."
"You want to understand me? Please don't. I'm afraid you'll fall in love with me."
"That's absolutely impossible. Who's the narcissist here?" Scott looked at Angela, this unbelievable woman.
"Even if I'm narcissistic, I'm not as narcissistic as you!"
Scott snorted coldly, not even noticing that they had been holding hands the whole time.
Angela said, "You should go back. I'm not going to your house for dinner. Apologize to Angela and your grandpa for me."
"Grandpa's orders. If you don't go, I can't get in the house either."
"That serious?"
Angela originally didn't plan to go, but seeing Zander coming out, she pushed Scott. "Go, hurry up."
When Zander came out, he only saw a departing car and didn't see who got in.
That car was a limited edition luxury car; it couldn't be Angela's, right?
With Angela's boyfriend being so poor, he probably couldn't even afford a car.
If Angela doesn't stay with him, she'll definitely regret it!
In the end, Angela went to Grace's house with Scott. Chase was delighted to see Angela.
Angela didn't accept the card yesterday, so today Chase specially prepared a gift. It wasn't particularly expensive, making it hard for Angela to refuse.
During dinner, Chase kept chatting with Angela, looking very pleased with her.
"How long have you two been together?" Chase asked.
Scott said, "Grandpa, we're not together."
Chase clutched his heart, "Why does my heart suddenly hurt? The doctor said I can't be stressed lately, or my body won't take it."
After putting on an act, Chase asked, "Scott, what did you just say?"
Scott remained silent.
"Grandpa, she and I are not what you think."
As soon as Scott spoke, Chase pretended to faint, scaring Grace. "Grandpa!"
At this moment, Angela spoke up, "Grandpa, we've been together for two months."
"Really? When are you planning to get married?"
Grace then realized that Chase was faking it!
"Talking about marriage now seems a bit early. No rush, Grandpa."
Chase said, "Alright, you young people take your time. If you ever think about it, let me know, and I'll discuss the wedding with your family."
After dinner, Chase was holding his phone. Grace asked, "Grandpa, what are you doing?"
Chase said, "I'm calling my buddies."
Soon, Chase's hearty laughter could be heard, "Let me tell you, Scott has a girlfriend now. She's beautiful and a good girl. I'll bring her over next time for you to see."
"That gift you mentioned last time would be better for you to prepare it soon. Scott's wedding is near."
Angela and Scott both facepalmed. If Angela had known Chase liked to spread the news so much, she wouldn't have admitted it.
But seeing Chase like that just now, she said they had been dating for two months. Who knew Chase would act so quickly?
"But I have a blind date tomorrow. I need to get married soon. Grace, what should I do?"
"No way," Scott said.
"Why not?" Angela looked at him. "I can help you deal with Grandpa, but I suggest you find a girlfriend yourself. Then we can say we broke up because we weren't compatible. It won't affect anything."
"Do you think Grandpa is that easy to fool? For now, this is the only way. You have to pretend to be my girlfriend for a while."
At least after spending time with Angela, he found that he didn't reject her as much as other women.
"What about my blind date?"
Scott said, "Don't go for now."
Angela rubbed her temples and heard Scott say, "Consider it mutual help. If you need me to pretend to be your boyfriend, call me anytime."
"Alright." Angela agreed for now.
At least it gave her an excuse. The Turner family wouldn't really force her to get married, right?
Angela stayed at Grace's house for a while longer, and then Chase asked Scott to take her home.
Grace thought Chase would stay up late again today, but he went to his room early.
Grace looked at the time; it was only nine o'clock.
She realized she hadn't seen Xavier for several days.
She was supposed to go sailing with Xavier today, but Chase's sudden appearance made her miss it.
Feeling a bit guilty, Grace decided to sneak out and surprise Xavier.
It wasn't too far from here to The Bameran Villa, and Xavier was probably still awake.
Grace went downstairs and saw a familiar car at the door, with a man leaning against it.
Grace was about to go to The Bameran Villa to find Xavier, but she didn't expect Xavier to be downstairs.
She ran over, "Xavier!"
Hearing her voice, Xavier looked up and saw Grace running towards him.
"Slow down," Xavier's voice was as calm as ever.
He opened his arms, and Grace jumped into them. He caught her steadily, his arms strong and firm.
"What are you doing here?" Under the streetlight, Grace's eyes sparkled.
"I missed you and came to see you," Xavier's gaze was deep and affectionate.
"Why didn't you tell me? If I hadn't come out, would you have stayed here all night?" Grace's hands were around Xavier's neck, her legs around his waist.
Xavier's hands firmly supported Grace's hips. "What about you? Where were you going so late?"
"To find you!"
At that moment, Xavier's heart skipped a beat.
