“What if we don’t end up together after one year?”
“Then you can get lost! You can come back when you finish the goal.”
Callum was speechless. “Nana, you’re so cruel. We’re your grandsons.”
“Grandsons are worthless.”
“I can have a sex change operation and become your granddaughter instead.”
“Be my guest, but even if you do that, you still won’t be a granddaughter in my eyes.”
Callum chuckled. “I’m just joking, Nana.”
He did not want to be a woman.
He took the two photos from her hands and looked at them. Then, he widened his eyes and pointed to one of the photos, asking, “Nana, are you sure you’re looking for a wife for me? Why does it seem like you’re looking for a brother for me instead?”
One of the pictures was of a handsome man.
Grandma May rolled her eyes at him. “Have you heard of Ms. Stoll, President of Stoll Corporation in Annenburg?
Casey Stoll was a woman who looked like a man. If it were not for her getting married and her pregnancy being almost due, many people would have thought that she was actually a man.
Callum pointed to the handsome man in the photo. “So, he’s a she?”
“She has a fraternal twin brother, but they look exactly the same. Her family raised her as a boy since childhood, so she acts like a man. People outside of her family think that she’s the eldest son.”
“How did you know she’s actually a woman?”
Callum heard of Casey Stoll before, and he had seen pictures of her too. At first glance, she really did look like a man, but it was not because she was deliberately trying to come off as the opposite sex. She dressed androgynously, but since she was known for her power and influence, people misunderstood and thought she was a man.
The handsome guy in the photo was different from Casey. She was raised as a man and also deliberately dressed like a man. She had thick eyebrows and large eyes, looked grim and cold, and her tall figure was dressed in a suit. Anyone who looked at her would think she was a he.
Callum flipped over the photo and read the woman’s profile on the other side.
“Hayden Queen, 28 years old, ‘eldest son‘ of the chairman of Queen Enterprise in Jensburg. She is now the president of Queen Enterprise after winning the trust of her father, the chairman. She is taciturn, highly effective, and her hobbies are playing basketball and horse riding.”
“Nana, is this all the information you have?”
“Yep, that’s all the information I have. It’s more than enough. All you have to know is her first and last name, how old she is, and where she lives. If you want to know more, you can find out for yourself.”
Grandma May took back Hayden’s photo from Callum’s hand and said, “This isn’t for you, but for Kevin. Hayden is more reticent and speaks with her actions. She’s more suitable for Kevin than you.
“Kevin has a big mouth and is good at talking. If he can win over Hayden, the couple won’t live a spiritless life in the future together.”
Callum was speechless. “Nana, I’m good at talking too.”
“Can you compare to Kevin?”
Callum was at a loss for words. Kevin was the most articulate out of all the brothers.
“Are you interested in Hayden?”
Callum shook his head. “That’s not it. Since she’s for Kevin, I’ll take a look at the other one for now.”
Only then did he look at the other photo carefully.
This one was obviously a girl, but she was wearing sunglasses, so he could not see how her eyes looked. Her small face looked even smaller after being covered by the large sunglasses.
However, he could tell that she was a delicate–looking girl. He flipped to the back to read her profile.
“Camryn Newman, 26 years old, the niece and also stepdaughter to the president of Newman Enterprise from Wiltspoon. After the early death of her father, her mother married her uncle, who is the president of Newman Enterprise. Thus, she became the president’s stepdaughter while also being his niece.”
“Nana, isn’t Camryn blind?”
Although the Newman family was from Wiltspoon, they mostly developed the company outside the city. Wiltspoon was just where Newman Enterprise was founded.
They did not dare compete with York Corporation and Stone Group in Wiltspoon, so the bulk of their business was conducted elsewhere.
In Wiltspoon, the Newmans were like a rich yet invisible family. In the eyes of others, they were simply well–to–do, but in fact, their assets also numbered in the billions.
“She’s just pretending to be blind.”
Callum paused before asking, “Does she have a story?”
“Yep. You can find out what that is by yourself.”
Callum smacked his lips and said, “I’ve heard of her but never seen her before. Blind people are very on guard against other people. I’m afraid it’ll be hard to get close to her.”
“I already told you she’s just pretending to be blind. I’ve shown you her photo, so you know what she looks like now. She opened up a flower shop in the busiest part of the city and has two workers helping her. By the way, her flower shop often buys goods from our villa. Zack even bought a bouquet of flowers from her shop for Serena.”
Of course, Zack did not realize that.
Serena was the only woman he paid attention to.
“Are there any other photos, Nana?”
“No. I’ll only help you and Kevin find a candidate for the time being. There’s no hurry fo the others.”
Callum tried to drag his younger brothers into this. “Only Rowan is still a minor. Alex just turned twenty this year, and the others are at the legal marriageable age. You can’t be biased, Nana. Let them all get married. The more granddaughters–in–law you have, the greater your chance of having a great–granddaughter.”
Grandma May said, “I’m counting on Seren to give me a great–granddaughter. The fortune–teller said that Seren’s firstborn will be a girl.”
Callum asked, “When did you become so superstitious?”
“Since your big brother actually fell in love with Serena. Fortune–telling is an age–old art. It’s worth believing in a little.”
After she finished speaking, she stood up. “I won’t bother you with your work. I’ll go to Liberty’s shop to have a look. I miss Sonny after not seeing him for so long. Liberty’s breakfast diner will be open for business soon, right?”
Callum said, “I didn’t hear Serena mentioning it.
”
“Serena and Zack have been quarreling for a long time. It’s better not to hear from her.”
Callum was confused.
It was only after his grandmother left and he thought carefully about it did he understand what she meant.
Zack was incredibly domineering. If he found out about something before Zack did, Zack might start throwing knives at him.
Zack got jealous of other women too, let alone them.
Serena arrived not long after Grandma May left.
She sent Zack’s lunch over in advance, lest he was so busy he forgot to eat again.
When her car stopped at the gate of York Corporation, the security guard on duty was ecstatic when he saw her.
He immediately opened the gate, let her drive in, and called the front desk. When the call was picked up, the security guard said, “The CEO’s wife is here.”
The CEO tortured the whole company because of his wife.
Now, his wife suddenly came.
Everyone’s bitter days would finally come to an end.
Although the security department was not tortured by the CEO, they knew everyone was hoping that his wife would sweep in like a spring breeze blowing away the cold winter wind. Spring, no, summer would finally come to them.
After all, it was still chilly in spring.
After the receptionist received the news that the CEO’s wife had arrived, she immediately called Mr. Chaplin on the intercom and said, “Mr. Chaplin, the boss’s wife is here. She just arrived at the building.”
