Chapter 925 An Excited Curtis

Sonia looked at Grace as she said, “I understand what you mean, Mrs. Lane, but do you really not hold any grudges against me? Charles is your son and he is heartbroken because of my rejection. Do you really not blame me for that?”

“You have asked me this question before and I’ll now answer you again—I’ve never blamed you, of course.” Grace held Sonia’s hands. “I’ve told you this before—Charles loves you, but that’s his deal and you don’t necessarily have to reciprocate his feelings. A relationship requires both parties to share mutual feelings for each other in order for it to work out.

If two people fancy each other, they are free to be in a relationship; if one doesn’t have feelings for the other, the former should reject the latter properly and the latter should move on. So, why would I blame you when you didn’t do anything wrong. Although I have aged, I’m still rather open-minded. However—”

“Mrs. Lane, you can just tell me anything.” Sonia looked Grace in her eyes.

Grace sighed and continued, “Although I really wish that you can become my daughter-in-law, I know that you won’t be happy with Charles because he is not your type. You won’t fall in love with him no matter what and forcing you two together will only turn you and him into a resentful couple. Therefore, I would rather see you find yourself a suitable partner that will make you happy than make you my daughter-in-law.”

She then regained her smile. “As for Charles, he is now in a dejected state, but I believe that this is just temporary. He will move on when he meets someone suitable for him. So, Sonny, you don’t need to worry about him. It’s also a good thing that he is not in tonight since meeting him would only make you feel awkward, and at the same time, it would hurt him to see you together with Toby. It’s for the best that you two don’t see each other, don’t you think so?”

“Mrs. Lane, thank you. Thank you so much! Sonia hugged her tightly.

After being stunned at first, Grace then gently patted Sonia on her back and beamed. “Don’t need to thank me. Alright, let’s head out.”

“Okay,” Sonia responded. The corner of her lips curved upward whereby a smile was finally revealed.

The two of them left the kitchen holding hands.

However, Sonia parted with Grace on their way out and went to the washroom, so Grace returned to the living room on her own.
