Chapter 1344 Blind Dates
Immediately, Juan started to coax his grandmother with his honey tongue. “Grandma, you will live to a hundred years old at least. Even if we wait another twenty years to have children, you will still be able to hold your great-grandchildren!”
Twenty years? What is this rascal trying to do? Does he only want to settle down when he’s forty years old? He would be too old by then! No woman would want him!
At that thought, she glared at him. “Nonsense! You will be forty in twenty years. You should be having grandchildren by then, not children!”
Juan froze before responding with a smile, “Grandma, that isn’t what I meant. What I mean is that we’re not in a hurry to settle down right now. Rest assured. We will definitely find our other halves before we turn forty!”
“No! I have no confidence that I will live till a hundred years old. I want to see both of you settle down and have children as soon as possible! I want to meet my great-grandchildren.” Sophia’s tone was final. She was adamant about having them follow her instructions.
Kyle and Juan looked at each other with solemn expressions. Deep in their hearts, they knew there was no way for them to escape the blind dates.
At that same time, they wondered what kind of girls their grandmother had arranged for them to meet.
That night, under the watchful eyes of Blake, the brothers arrived at the meeting place—a first-class hotel.
“The two ladies are already here. Please go ahead.”
“We got it. Blake, if we leave because the girls don’t take a liking to us, would it still consider that we’ve fulfilled Grandma’s request?”
Blake nodded after thinking for a while. “Don’t worry. If the ladies aren’t satisfied with both of you, someone will inform Ma’am.”
Eyes lighting up, Juan started scheming.
As for Kyle, he was determined to mess up the blind date regardless of the kind of girl he would meet later on.
With their minds made up, the two young men strode into the hotel.
As they passed the brightly lit lobby and were about to go to the rooms, they paused abruptly in their steps.
“Hold on a minute. Which rooms are we supposed to go to?”
“One is Room 226, and the other is 228.”
“Right. Grandma sure knows how to pick the rooms. But who’s going to 226? Me or you?”
After contemplating for a while, Kyle replied, “I can’t remember. I wasn’t paying attention earlier. All I know is that we have to come here.”
Juan blinked and said, “Since you are the older one, you should go to Room 226. I will go to Room 228.”
That made sense to Kyle, so he agreed.
Kyle walked into Room 226, but it was empty. I suppose my blind date isn’t here yet. Should I stay and wait for a while more or leave now? Just then, he heard footsteps closing in.
Turning around, he saw a woman with wavy chestnut-brown hair. She was dressed in colorful clothes and carried a Chanel bag on her arm as she click-clacked toward him in her high heels.
Kyle studied her in detail and found her makeup too heavy. All in all, she looked too flamboyant to his liking.
So, this is the kind of woman that Grandma thinks is suitable for me?
“Hi, Mrs. Seet has arranged for me to come to this blind date.”
“She’s my grandmother, and I’m her grandson.”
When the woman heard his reply, she checked Kyle out. Huh, something is amiss… He doesn’t look like the man in the photo. That guy looks so handsome and cheery with a bright smile on his face. Meanwhile, this guy in front of me looks so serious. They are completely different!
Sophia told her that her date was an energetic, outgoing, free-spirited person who loved freedom. He sounded like her type, which was why she had agreed to come to the blind date.
But he looks nothing like what Mrs. Seet has described!
However, upon closer inspection, she realized he looked the same as the man in the photo.
Could it be that he’s acting this way because it’s our first meeting?
