“I’ll be with her soon.” Stanley answered and walked off.

His statement left Gloria to mutter while pondering aloud,” Soon? Well, that’s not right. Does that mean…

“Stanley, does that mean you don’t have a girlfriend yet?!” Gloria yelled upon realizing what was going on.

‘The nerve of that brat! How dare he lie to me? If what he said is true, doesn’t that mean that he is still single? Why would he even claim that he has a girlfriend then?’ Gloria wondered.

“Mom, let’s wait for a tad longer. Perhaps what Stanley was trying to say is that he has someone he likes, but that person hasn’t given him a reply.” Nicole comforted her mother the instant she saw how sour Gloria’s face was.

“That’s right. Since Stanley has been honest enough to reveal this much to us, we should definitely give him some time.” Daniel replied, echoing Nicole’s words. “Say what you want, but the issue with the Jean family hasn’t been resolved yet. We can’t simply set him up on a blind date for him now.”

After issuing a sigh, Gloria asked, “What else can I do?”

Indeed, due to the situation they had found themselves in, her hands were tied.

At the end of the day, it would not be feasible or reasonable for her to arrange more blind dates for Stanley. In addition to that, Gloria was also curious if the girlfriend whom Stanley was referring to actually existed. And even that aforementioned woman did exist, there were still questions as to what sort of person she was.

‘Is it possible that he’ll do exactly what Cherry did? I have a hunch. I think he’s worried that we’ll not accept her if she isn’t from a family as affluent as ours.’ Gloria thought.
