Before Silas left, he explained his purpose for coming today only when Tessa was seeing him off: "Dating girls was just for fun, I admit I was wrong. I'm still a student and should focus on my studies, not girlfriends. So, can you not find me a wife right after high school graduation?"
"What do you mean?" Tessa looked at him in surprise.
"It's my grandma and my mom. They've arranged for me to meet a woman, supposedly the daughter of a big conglomerate, and want me to date her. I don't want a girlfriend right now."
Silas was bottling up a sense of unspeakable resentment.
He genuinely felt wronged; he had just begun to put effort into building his life, and now his family was arranging a marriage for him.
Tessa was dumbfounded, completely at a loss for words.
She was dizzy from it all!
That bizarre stepmother and grandma—who knows what those two were thinking.
How old is Silas, anyway?
They're setting up blind dates for an eighteen-year-old boy.
