That Can Be Arranged

Chapter 185

Tobias smiled mysteriously. “Of course it’s good news.”

Both Nicholas and Gregory were looking at him confusedly. “Great-Grandpa, what good news are you talking about? Stop keeping us in the dark.”

With an inscrutable smile, Tobias ruffled Gregory’s head before taking out a stack of photos and placing them in front of Nicholas. “Here. Is there anyone here you fancy? Try and choose one.”

Suddenly, Nicholas understood the old man’s intentions, so he furrowed his brows and asked bluntly without accepting those photos, “Grandpa, what is this?”

“Our precious Greg is now all grown up but for so many years, you’ve been all alone, so it must have been difficult for the two of you. Now is the perfect time to find someone to settle down with. Not only can she help you share some of the burden, she can also give this child some motherly love. He is still young and we can’t deprive him of the comfort of having a mother’s love.” Tobias chuckled and shoved the photos over to Nicholas again. “This should have been on your agenda long ago, but you dragged it out for so long. Why don’t you take a look at these photos first? If there’s anyone you like, I’ll help you arrange it.”

No matter how smart Nicholas was, he never expected Tobias to come all this way just for this particular matter.

Listening to the elderly man, Nicholas couldn’t help but frown. I’m not interested in marriage or having a child at all, let alone choosing a random woman from these photos to spend my life with. Having Greg is enough for me.

Therefore, he answered, “Grandpa, I just got back not long ago and I’m currently busy with the company. I don’t have time to worry about these.”

As if he had expected him to say this, Tobias chuckled once more and said, “It is exactly because you’re too busy with your work that we need to find someone to take care of Greg. I have carefully selected these women for you. All of them come from elite families and make great wives. If you are interested in any one of them, we can propose a marriage to them right away.”

Upon hearing that, Nicholas was rather startled. “Grandpa, why are we in such a hurry? Besides, even if I choose one, Greg may not be able to accept her.”

“Oh-does that mean you’ll get married if he agrees?” Tobias turned toward Gregory with an eloquent smile. “Come here, Greg. I’m helping your daddy find a mommy for you. What do you think?”

Although Gregory was playing with his Lego all this while, he still heard their conversation. Deep down, he was always worried that Nicholas would simply find a woman to be his stepmother.

That was why Gregory didn’t want a stepmother at all.

However, since the two adults were having a conversation, he was in no position to interrupt them, so he became frustrated. The moment Tobias asked him for his opinion, he immediately lifted his head and looked at him. “Great-Grandpa, to be honest with you, I don’t want a stepmother.”

As if he had expected the rejection, Tobias remained calm and uttered slowly, “That’s because you are still young, so you don’t know the benefits of having a mommy. If you have a mommy, she can take care of you whenever your daddy is busy, and she can also give you a lot of unconditional love. You will be very happy. Didn’t you see that those kids you met before all have a mommy with them? I still remember that a while ago, you said that you wanted a mommy. Why don’t you want one now?

“But I’m very happy right now. Besides, all these women only want our family’s wealth and status. They won’t actually love me. If they have a baby of their own in the future, do you think they’ll still treat me well, Great-Grandpa? Aren’t you afraid that they will secretly hurt me?” Gregory answered straight

away.

Listening to him, Tobias furrowed his brows with annoyance. “Who told you all this nonsense? Of course I won’t let anyone bully you, so I’m now choosing the best mommy for you.” Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

“No one is speaking nonsense to me, but I don’t want any of these women to be my mommy.” Gregory frowned.

Therefore, Tobias asked tentatively, “Does that mean you already have someone in mind? Can you tell me who it is?”

Gregory lifted his head and replied, “I like my violin teacher-Miss Tessa Reinhart.”

The moment Tobias heard her name, he could feel his expression immediately darken. “No. We are not only choosing a wife for your daddy, but we are also choosing someone to join the Sawyer Family. Not just anyone can join us, so you can only choose from these photos.”
