True Fated Marriage novel Chapter 2159

Sylvia didn't expect Chigo to bring up their childhood. She smiled awkwardly and said, "Chigo, I didn't think you'd still remember that."

Chigo smiled and said, "It seems you haven't forgotten either."

"Yeah, I haven't," she admitted with a smile.

"Alas, we're getting on in years." Robert smiled as he looked at Sylvia and then at his great-grandson before turning to William, "The kids sure have grown up, huh, William. Our time is nearing too."

"You're d*mn right. We're counting our days now." William nodded in agreement and sighed. "Look at Chigo. He's a grown man already!"

"He's five years older than Sylvia," Robert said before moving his gaze to Kendrix.

Baffled, Kendrix thought Robert would say something, but all he did was smile at him before returning to William, "Do you remember the marriage you proposed long ago?"

William was taken aback. "Marriage?"

"Yeah. Back then, you said we should be in-laws." Robert took a meaningful glance at Chigo and

Sylvia.

Sylvia felt the atmosphere turning awkward under the stare of others. Sure enough, she felt a change in Chigo's gaze when he looked at her.

She blinked, thinking, "Marriage?"

"Who's marrying who? Please don't let it be me."

Before she could end her train of thoughts, Robert spoke, "Sylvia, do you remember you saying you wanted to marry Chigo?"

His words struck her like a bolt in the blue.

All of a sudden, she felt her head buzzing.

It was as if someone had dug up her deepest, darkest memory.

She blushed and didn't dare to look at Kendrix for fear that he might misconstrue.

But at the same time, she wanted badly to know his thoughts on it and his reaction.

Nervous, she looked over and saw him staring back at her. She could see the sadness in his eyes.

The sadness surfaced in a snap.

He emitted an icy aura as if he was the winter snow.

Sylvia chewed her lips and turned her gaze to Chigo.

Chigo was also looking at her with a deep and serene gaze.

William didn't speak up instantly. The atmosphere turned awkward just as Robert brought that up.

No one spoke, but Robert didn't find it awkward and even added, "C'mon, don't tell me you've forgotten about it, William. Are you this forgetful? Did you get dementia and forget about it?"

"Oh, c'mon, you old fart, how do you still remember something like that from so long ago?" William took a look at Kendrix and Sylvia behind him.

Robert also followed his line of gaze and swept his eyes across their faces.

While looking at them, he said, "Sylvia, why don't you say anything? You wanted it yourself; you used to beg Chigo to marry you."

Sylvia had thought she could brush it off if she didn't say anything.

But she was obviously wrong.

She had no choice but to say, "I have no memory of it at all, Mr. Robinson. You didn't deliberately bring it up, did you?"

"Yeah. It's exactly that you don't look like you remember it that I wanted to jog your memory." Robert said with a smile, "Is it right, Chigo?"

Chigo smiled and said, "Great-grandpa, you should let Sylvia introduce the guy next to her."

Finally, someone noticed Kendrix's presence.

Sylvia immediately said, "Chigo, this is my friend, Kendrix Trevino."

Chigo looked at Kendrix, who only nodded a greeting, silent.
