Swapping a Broken Heart for a New Start novel Chapter 898

Seeing his grandson walk in looking completely unbothered only fueled his irritation. “That Smith fellow is practically at your doorstep trying to steal your family, and you have nothing to say about it? What happened to all that conviction when you swore to me that she was the only one for you?”

Dennis listened to the old man’s tone with a flicker of amusement in his eyes. This was new. It was the first time his grandfather had called him in to discuss Camila and the Smiths. Was he finally not demanding they break up?

Suppressing his curiosity, Dennis retorted, “Is Grandpa worried I’m going to be abandoned?”

The elder Mr. Williams couldn't stand hearing that. “She wouldn’t dare abandon you!” he barked.

Dennis’s eyes danced with a hidden smile, but he maintained his nonchalant attitude. “Why wouldn’t she dare? You’ve done everything you can to stand in our way. Can’t you allow someone to have second thoughts? Isn’t this what you wanted to see?”

The old man was about to explode from his grandson’s calm demeanor. “I stood in the way because my grandson is exceptional! She’s the one who benefits from being with you! What does she have to back down about? When a woman meets a man as outstanding as you, she should be holding on for dear life, not wavering!”

Dennis looked at his grandfather with a knowing calm. “And as you said, Grandpa, she is my daughter. Naturally, she will always stay by my side.”

The elder Mr. Williams finally understood the situation, but he couldn’t help but stare, feeling that something wasn’t quite right. Why did he have the distinct feeling he’d just been played?

Dennis didn’t give him a chance to figure it out. Before he could speak again, Dennis said, “Camila would be so happy to know you’ve accepted her.”
