True Fated Marriage novel Chapter 1893

"I don't think so." Gary smiled as he looked at Sebastian. "Sebastian, I believe Sylvia might really rank first if she works hard enough."

"Perhaps in the next semester." Sebastian smiled with confidence. "We will be having our finals in less than two weeks for this semester. I doubt she can score better than me."

Heinz said, "Don't go easy on her. Also, keep an eye on her."

Sebastian was startled. "Why should I keep an eye on her?"

"That's because Dad is suspecting that Sylvia is falling in love too early," Gary interrupted and answered.

Heinz frowned and glanced at Gary, as if he didn't like Gary revealing that much.

Sebastian blinked his eyes. "Are you suspecting that Sylvia is falling in love too soon? With who?"

"What do you think?" Gary ignored Heinz's gaze and continued to ask.

Sebastian thought for a moment before saying, "I don't think she will be interested in any of our classmates. She's mature at her age and has high standards. I doubt she will be interested in someone our age."

Gary gave Heinz a look. "It seems like Sebastian really knows Sylvia well."

Heinz frowned and looked at Sebastian again.

Sebastian looked at him with a calm expression. "Dad, just tell me what's on your mind."

Heinz frowned again, as if he was hesitating.

"Just say it already," Gary said, "Sebastian, dad thinks that Sylvia is in love with Mr. Trevino."

Heinz glared at Gary again for saying too much.

Gary sneered. "What's wrong? Stop the act when we're already at this point. Why can't you be a little honest since you have already started the conversation?"

Heinz had no choice but to say, "Fine. It's like what your brother said. Is there anything strange going on between Sylvia and Kendrix?"

"I don't know. I didn't pay much attention to them," Sebastian said directly.

Heinz was startled. He then said to Sebastian, "All right. You should probably go get some rest now."

"Good night, dad. Good night, Gary." Sebastian was about to walk out.

Gary smiled and took a step forward. Putting his arm around Sebastian's shoulders, he said, "Dad, I'll walk Sebastian to his room."

Heinz just acknowledged him and didn't say anything else.

"Gary, I'm not a child, I can go back on my own." Sebastian laughed after they walked out of the study. "You don't have to do this."

"Just let me walk you." Gary laughed as he led Sebastian to his room.

After walking into Sebastian's room, Gary said, "Great job, Sebastian."

Sebastian played dumb. "What? Gary, I don't quite get it."

"Are you still trying to play dumb in front of me?" Gary raised a brow and stared at him with a sharp gaze.

Sebastian could no longer hide himself under that gaze.

Sebastian paused and smiled. "Gary, I really don't get what you're implying. Why don't you just tell me?"

"Sure, I'll tell you," Gary said in a deep voice, "You know there's something going on between Sylvia and Kendrix, yet you lied to Dad."

Upon hearing that, Sebastian let out an awkward laugh as he looked at Gary, but he wasn't feeling awkward at all deep down.

He looked calm as he said, "You're sneaky."

"Sebastian, you're the sneaky one." Gary looked at him. Sebastian indeed looked like an honest and innocent kid, and not everyone was able to tell lies so blatantly.

He was impressed at how Sebastian managed to keep a cool face even when he lied.

Gary could not help but to imagine that Sebastian might grow up to be someone remarkable one day. He felt that he needed to look at him more seriously then.

Sebastian smiled. "I really don't know anything between Sylvia and Mr. Trevino. I'm not in her class after all, but I do know Sylvia admires Mr. Trevino. That's obvious, and I've mentioned it before."

"There is a story behind her wanting to get first place, am I right?" Gary continued to ask.

Sebastian shook his head. "I don't know."

"Sebastian, don't you forget that Sylvia is the biggest troublemaker among us. You, Ernest, and I are all her victims," Gary persuaded to have Sebastian join his side.

Sebastian was however being very cautious. "I know that, but what are you trying to say?"
