True Fated Marriage novel Chapter 2026

Lowell's lips twitched. He was really helpless when it came to the kids of the Jones family.

They were all so smart, meticulous and sharp towards those things.

Once they decided to, they would be able to call out a person easily.

Lowell had always known that Sebastian was a smart boy, but what he never expected was that he had such a sharp tongue. His words hit right at his heart like a sharp blade, with much straightforwardness and precision.

Or was he just helpless and rather obvious with his feelings, with all of them plastered on his face that the entire family had realized that something was different with him? Was that why they all got worried?

Looking at Sebastian's gleaming eyes, Lowell knew that Sebastian had seen through it.

Sigh!

It seemed like that was the case.

He was a little embarrassed and wasn't sure how to answer at that moment.

Fortunately, Grace came to his rescue.

Grace just patted Sebastian's shoulder. "Your uncle has always been mindful of these things, and that's since he's young, so to prevent himself from going the wrong way. That's why, even when it comes to relationships, he doesn't want to be impetuous about it, which is good."

"Mm." When Sebastian heard her answer, he immediately turned to look at her and smiled. "I guess you're right, mom. I was just afraid that Uncle Lowell was overthinking and he might overlook and miss out on his happiness."

Grace was taken aback as she looked at her son and asked, "What do you mean by that?"

"It's simple, mom. I just want to tell Uncle Lowell that if he meets the one, it would be better to confess earlier, otherwise, he would miss out on the opportunity to have his own happiness." Sebastian chuckled. "I'll go in and have my lunch because I will need to head back to school later. Mom, Uncle Lowell, hurry and come in."

After a pause, Grace nodded.

She thought about Sebastian's words carefully, as she was having a feeling that there was more to what was said.

She looked at Lowell again as he let out a bitter laugh.

Sometimes, it wasn't about making the confession.

If it was a girl he liked, he wouldn't miss it, regardless if he confessed earlier or later.

However, if the girl doesn't like him, what was the point in making a confession?

Back in the dining room, Grace and Lowell were eating lunch together with Sebastian.

"Sebastian, is your sister working hard these days?" Grace was still worried about her daughter that had yet to return home for a few days then.

"Yep, Sylvia has been working very hard lately. She doesn't even come out for a break after classes," Sebastian said, "She has read up on all of Gary's notebooks, and she has also gone through Ernest's notes. I heard that the exercises that she's doing now were given by Mr. Trevino."

"Is Mr. Trevino still teaching you all now?" Grace asked, the question sounded as if there was hidden meanings behind it.

"Mr. Trevino is done with conducting classes for us," Sebastian said, "We are now doing revision, and all courses are completed. That's why Mr. Trevino is not giving classes anymore."

"Oh." Grace nodded.

"Who is Mr. Trevino?" Lowell had no idea of who Kendrix was. As he was listening to the conversation between Grace and Sebastian about Mr. Trevino, he felt a sense of doubt and surprise.

"He's an intern teacher," Sebastian said and smirked. He put on a cunning face and added on, "He is very handsome."

Lowell raised his eyebrows.

He didn't ignore the cunning smile on Sebastian's face but was just rather surprised. How could a little boy like him show such a face?

It was treacherous.

Lowell's intuition told him that the Mr. Trevino guy's existence must be crucial, and perhaps, he was also the reason why Sylvia had not returned home and was rather hardworking those days.

"Oh, I see." Lowell gave a meaningful smile, as if he understood what Sebastian meant.

Grace glanced at Sebastian. She had the feeling that those days, her sons were being slightly strange towards the existence of Kendrix, and they seemed rather excited about him.

However, Grace did not say much about it.

Sebastian quietly ate his meal.

The pride in his eyes couldn't be concealed. With regards to having a brother-in-law that was much older and was even his own teacher, he wouldn't object to it at all. He would even feel quite accomplished about it.

He was looking forward to that one day when Mr. Trevino would become his brother-in-law.

It was quite exciting just thinking about it.

At the sea.

Gary and Celeste had been at the sea for three days.

After having that strong alcohol, Gary spent almost half a day to sober up and recuperate.

For the first time, he deeply felt that alcohol was not a good thing.

As he woke up that day, Gary was feeling better physically, but some emotions started to stir up.

Celeste was still snuggled in his embrace, sleeping soundly.

However, he was already fully awake.

He wanted to do something to kill the quiet time.

It was just that he had yet to completely prove his innocence, and he wasn't sure if Celeste could believe him.
