Chapter 96

Carmella’s palm was sweating as she held her phone, “Grandpa, I just graduated, and I don’t want to date yet.”

Terrence went silent for a moment, his voice tumed gloomy. “Carmella, business hasn’t been good for these two years, and the Macclain family is not as good as before. There’s going to be a big project opening up in J City soon, and Gentry’s uncle is in charge of it. If our families get along, we might have a chance to get

Carmella’s voice tightened, “Grandpa, I’ve always been aware of the Macclain family’s kindness, and I will certainly pay you back in the future.”

Terrence chuckled softly, “No need to wait for the future, you have the chance now.”
