Swapping a Broken Heart for a New Start novel Chapter 934

Perhaps she had misunderstood. Forcing a calm expression, she turned to the elder Mr. Williams. “Grandpa Williams, I’m not sure I understand what Audrey means. When did you become so close with Ms. Davis and this little… I mean, this little girl?”

Her voice, laced with barely suppressed fury, came out sharper than she intended, sounding almost like an interrogation. She simply couldn’t believe this old traditionalist would ever accept Camila Davis. However, the elder Mr. Williams's response made her heart sink.

He was a straightforward man, and since they’d been discovered, there was no point in hiding it. He sighed and said to Cynthia, “Nancy, I was planning to schedule a time to have dinner with your family and discuss the matter of the engagement. I just haven't found the right moment. Since you're here today, please pass on a message to your parents for me. I’ll host a dinner for you all tomorrow.”

Cynthia clutched her purse, clinging to a final shred of hope. She forced a stiff smile. “Has Grandpa Williams finally decided to set a date for my engagement to Dennis? That’s wonderful! I’ve been waiting for this day for so long. I’m sure my parents will be thrilled to hear it!”

The elder Mr. Williams sighed again, hearing the desperation in her voice, but he chose not to crush her hopes directly. “Nancy, let’s discuss this tomorrow. If there’s nothing else, we should be heading back now.”

Cynthia’s heart plummeted, but she managed to maintain her composure. “Of course. I look forward to it, Grandpa Williams.”
