Chapter 1348 She Saved My Life

Sophia turned to Juan, utterly stumped.

“What? Are you referring to Sally?”

“Yup, I’m referring to her all right! Well, I think she’s rather strange. She didn’t even mind when I disparaged myself but insisted that we make a good match. I truly don’t understand her!”

Frowning, Sophia exclaimed with surprise written all over her face, “She thinks that you make a good match with her?”

Juan failed to perceive the implicit meaning behind her question, so he honestly replied, “Yeah. I disparaged myself to the point that I wasn’t even worth a single dime. Not only did I denigrate myself at the hotel, but I even made a phone call to her after leaving the hotel and poured scorn on myself further. I told her innumerable flaws I have, but she didn’t seem bothered at all!”

He then snapped his head over to Kyle. “He also heard me making the call, so you can ask him if you don’t believe me!”

Hearing that, Sophia eyed Kyle dubiously. “Kai, is Juan joking with me?”

“No, Grandma. Everything he said is true.” Kyle wore a solemn expression.

Sophia’s expression instantly changed. Fixating her eyes on them both, she asked once more, “Are the two of you really not pulling my leg?”

Juan and Kyle didn’t quite understand her meaning. Nonetheless, Juan swore, “I swear on my life that I’m truly not lying. That Sally is just too weird. She really didn’t mind me deprecating myself!”

At that, Sophia sighed inwardly.

I was planning to introduce Sally to Kyle. Why did she take a fancy to Juan instead? I think her personality makes her more suited to Kyle. And Kyle said that the woman he met earlier was shallow and ostentatious. Could it be that he was speaking of Yolane? This…

She mulled it over before understanding finally dawned upon her.

Ah, Juan and Kyle must have mixed up their blind dates! But then, it’s really surprising that Sally actually feels that Juan is a good fit for her!

While she was still deep in contemplation, Juan again inquired, “Grandma, Sally said she helped you out once. What kind of help did she render you that an astute person like you would agree to have her marry into the family as your granddaughter-in-law?”

“Juan, Sally said she thinks that you both are suitable? What do you think about her, then?”

“About that, Grandma… I really don’t quite know the answer to that, but she’s pretty unique with her eloquence.”

When Juan said that, Kyle turned to him with a gaze that had abruptly darkened significantly.

“Then, are you willing to try dating her?”

“That’s not important, Grandma! No one knows what will happen in the future. Who knows what fate has in store for me? Anyway, you haven’t told me what kind of help she rendered you.”

“Well, she didn’t exactly help me. Instead, she saved my life.”

“Saved your life? Was it that serious?” Juan was all the more curious upon hearing that, and he looked at Sophia unblinkingly.

Kyle was likewise surprised. “When did she save you, Grandma?”

“It was just last month…”

The floodgates of Sophia’s memories swung open, and memories started pouring into her mind.

She then told them everything that had happened, recounting, “Back then, I had just exited the mall after shopping. When I passed by Auric Avenue, a reckless driver appeared out of nowhere. He was unskilled at driving and barreled right at me. I was really frightened at that time, afraid that I wouldn’t be able to see you both getting married and having children. I thought I would go to heaven before seeing the two of you carry on the name of the Seet family. But luck was on my side, for a pair of hands suddenly pushed me out of the way in the nick of time. Only then did I have a narrow escape from death.” While speaking of that, she still felt a shudder running down her spine.

“So, the person who pushed you out of the way was Sally?” Juan queried.

“Yes, it was her. If it weren’t for her, I might have crossed the great divide last month. The moment I saw her, I took a great liking to her, feeling a sense of affinity with her at a single glance. On second thought, I felt that might be a blessing in disguise, and God was sending me a granddaughter-in-law. Thus, I got the idea of introducing her to you both.”
