Still Wanna Escape After Stealing My Heart? novel Chapter 646

Marcus could hear the disappointment in Yvonne's tone, so he immediately explained, "Yvonne, listen to me. It was because something suddenly came up for Ryan and I. You also knew that my grandpa came back from Kidon City after his treatment. He was already 80-years-old. My grandpa and Old Master Ford's relationship had been very good. He said that it was a big thing for Old Master Ford to hold a family banquet, so Ryan and I must go in advance to help."

"We couldn’t go against the old man's wishes." 1

"However, even though Ryan and I couldn't personally pick you and Ruth up, we sent a car to pick you up. Call me immediately when you arrive outside of the old Ford residence. Ryan and I would go out to escort both of you."

Marcus' tone was particularly apologetic.

He was a very trustworthy person, but he did not expect that he would be called by his grandfather when he was supposed to leave.

At that time, Marcus even explained to Old Master Shaw, “Grandpa, I couldn't go to the old Ford residence with you this time. You could ride in my parent's car. I must pick up a very important friend, and this friend may even become your granddaughter-in-law in the future. You shouldn't impede my matrimonial affairs."

At first, Marcus thought that the old man would definitely forbid to date a woman from outside.

However, he did not expect the old man would smile s o generously and humbly. "Good, Marcus. You had no idea how long I had been looking forward to having a granddaughter-in-law. The three other siblings who were aboard didn't come back often, and there was only you at home. I have long wanted you to have a girlfriend sooner. However, I would tell you this, Old Master Ford was nearly a hundred years old, and this time Sebastian is personally holding the banquet at home. It would not be right if you didn't go in advance to help a little."

"Besides, wouldn’t this be the perfect time to test if this girl was understanding and generous?"

Marcus was speechless.

He could not refute what the old man said.

After a pause, he said to the old man, "Alright, Grandpa. I would give Ryan a call and ask Ryan to help me pick up..."

"Ryan couldn't either, Marcus," said Old Master Shaw.

Marcus said, "What's wrong, Grandpa?"

Old Master Shaw said amiably to his grandson, "Ryan i s Alex Poole's nephew. You knew how good the relationship was between Alex and Sebastian.

However, Alex had something important that needed Ryan to talk to Sebastian face-to-face personally. I had

received a call from Alex earlier."

When Old Master Shaw lied, there were no flaws indicated on his face.
