The Wrong Woman

It was unusual.

Just then, Candice and Elio approached. Setting aside their family affairs, the three raised their glasses in a toast with Candice and Elio.

They began with heartfelt wishes, laughing and conversing freely. Unexpectedly, the conversation veered toward Jasper.

Mila persisted, "But Candice is younger than you and already married!"

Nathan interjected, "Let's give him some time. No rush. Let's see when he's 30, or maybe 40. Who knows, perhaps he'll get married in his 50s. There's still plenty of time ahead."

Jasper was speechless, offering a faint smile. "Dad, you're really good at comforting people."

Observing the concern from Mila and Nathan, Elio reassured them. "Don't worry. Jasper definitely likes women. In the past, he—"
