Chapter 390: Chapter 390

Eleanor Sterling nodded sheepishly and forced a smile, "Yep, I already have a boyfriend, so I can’t marry Silas Hawthorne."

Would Mrs. Jennings give up now?

Mrs. Jennings looked at Eleanor Sterling skeptically, a hint of doubt flashing in her eyes, her weathered and sharp gaze seemingly seeing through everything.

Then Mrs. Jennings spoke confidently, "Eleanor, you aren’t trying to fool your grandma, right? Grandma’s not easy to deceive."

"Why would I lie to you? I’m telling the truth; my boyfriend is very handsome, and rich. He’s really outstanding and certainly no worse than Silas Hawthorne."

Eleanor Sterling found herself almost believing what she was saying, as the image of Alaric Faulkner popped up in her mind.

She was surprised to realize that Alaric Faulkner already held such a good impression in her mind!

Having already gotten involved with Alaric Faulkner, Eleanor Sterling didn’t want to get entangled with Silas Hawthorne as well, especially since they’re good friends. Just thinking about it gave her a headache.

"Really? I don’t think there’s anyone better than that boy from the Hawthorne Family, you should break up with your boyfriend. Grandma will decide for you, and we can go find the Hawthorne Family..."

Eleanor Sterling was both crying and laughing.

She quickly replied, "Grandma, I’m not lying, my boyfriend is really quite amazing."

Mrs. Jennings squinted her eyes, and snorted lightly, "I don’t believe it, unless you bring him to me and let me see."

What? Eleanor Sterling was taken aback.

Really have to show him to Mrs. Jennings?

"If you don’t bring him to me, you’re just trying to fool me. I think I should go to the Hawthorne Family..." Mrs. Jennings said, starting to get up.

Eleanor Sterling quickly held her back, "Grandma, wait, don’t go to the Hawthorne Family. I’ll bring my boyfriend to show you."

Mrs. Jennings sat back down and smiled, "Alright, alright, when will you bring him over? I think there’s no time like the present, how about today!"

Eleanor Sterling hesitated and said, "Grandma, you’re rushing it."

Mrs. Jennings huffed, "How can I not be anxious about your future marriage plans, who knows if you’re deceiving me."

Eleanor Sterling smiled awkwardly, she and Alaric Faulkner hadn’t explicitly defined their relationship, but they were more or less an implicit couple, right?

"Nowadays, it’s popular on the internet to rent boyfriends; don’t you think of renting someone just to fool me. I, an old woman, have sharp eyes and am still far from having blurred vision!"

Eleanor Sterling looked helpless, "I won’t, I won’t deceive you, it’s just... isn’t it inappropriate to bring him to the Jennings Family? Is Grandpa still angry with my mom?"

Although Eleanor Sterling hadn’t met Mr. Jennings.

But it’s said that years ago he was so enraged by her mother’s actions that he ended up in the hospital.

He swore to sever any father-daughter relationship with her mother, so he probably isn’t too fond of her now, and Eleanor Sterling couldn’t possibly bring anyone there.

"Not into the Jennings Family is fine." Mrs. Jennings shifted her gaze, "Then you can bring him out somewhere, and I’ll personally go see."

Eleanor Sterling thought for a bit and asked, "Then... would tomorrow be okay?"

It seemed that Mrs. Jennings wouldn’t be satisfied without seeing her boyfriend, so she had no choice but to brace herself for arrangements.

"Okay, then tomorrow it is."

Eleanor Sterling sighed, "Grandma, wait a moment, I’ll make a call and ask if he’s free tomorrow."

"Go ahead." Mrs. Jennings waved her hand repeatedly.

Eleanor Sterling got up and went to the balcony to make a call, meanwhile Mrs. Jennings flashed a triumphant smile.

She would have to personally vet Eleanor Sterling’s boyfriend. Latest content published on novel~fire~net
