Chapter 2521

“Of course, you can! It just sort of caught us off guard.”

“Yeah, it’s great that you’re going to hold your wedding.”

Spencer and Samuel were grinning widely, while Stanley issued a loud and deep sigh. “I can already imagine how miserable my future days will be.”

‘Now, I’ll be the only one left that has yet to settle down. The pressure really is going to be mounting,’

Stanley thought.

“You can relax. Just go on the blind dates Mom is going to set up for you. When you have a girlfriend, life will be much easier for you,” Samuel teased.

‘Of course, I guess I won’t have to worry about dying alone anymore the day I get married,’ Stanley grumbled to himself.

Then, he rolled his eyes at Samuel in disgust. “You should take care of your own business.”

In turn, Samuel shrugged at Stanley. “I’m fine. The next thing you ought to watch out for is being the center of our family’s attention.”

“Shut your mouth and eat.” Stanley threw a piece of bread at Samuel to shut him up, fuming and frustrated.

“Hey. Don’t get mad at me when you can’t live up to your own expectations,” Samuel mocked as he bit into the bread Stanley threw at him.

“Alright now, let’s all dig in,” Daniel interrupted.

A beaming smile was plastered on Daniel’s face as he watched his kids bicker around. ‘These rascals have grown up too fast. It’s about time they started taking the future into their own hands.’

After breakfast was over, Daniel and Gloria waited until their children had left for work before they began discussing amongst themselves.

“A few of our kids are getting married. Do you have any plans for how things will be after they have been hitched?” Daniel asked Gloria.

“I think the current arrangement is good enough. Sean and Steve don’t live too far off. Spencer and Samuel bought a villa near our place, and Nicole’s right next door to us. I still hope that Stanley can settle down sooner. Otherwise, we can just leave him here to live with us,” Gloria replied.

“Is Stanley going to agree to living with us?” Daniel asked, feeling a little skeptical.

Daniel realized that although he had mentioned it before, he had never truly discussed with Stanley his opinion on the idea of staying in this place after they got married. He also hadn’t asked for his future girlfriend’s perspective on the matter.

“He hasn’t said anything in the meantime, but if he doesn’t want to then we’ll just let him do what he wants to,” Gloria said after a moment of consideration, wanting to respect her child’s wishes and decisions.

“Okay then.” Daniel sighed.

He had never imagined that his kids would grow up one day and eventually start a family of their own.

A cocktail of emotions churned as he realized that his kids had all grown up.

“Now, the most important thing for us now is to arrange a blind date for Stanley,” Gloria said before she took her phone out and called Emma.

“Hey Emma, I’m going to set a blind date up for Stanley. Do you want to arrange one for Emery as well?” Gloria asked.

Upon hearing this, Emma immediately agreed, “Of course! I am about to lose my mind because of this.

Let’s meet up and set up these blind dates together.”

“Okay! We can start preparing the details. We’ll meet up in two days’ time to discuss. How does that sound?” Gloria continued.

And in an enthusiastic tone expected from her, Emma agreed, “Sounds great. I’ll see you then!”

Gloria hung up with a grin plastered on her face. “Once we get Stanley to settle down, the two of us can finally relax.”

“Don’t push yourself too hard,” Daniel advised, concerned about Gloria’s health.

“I’m fine. I’m just super excited about this,” Gloria replied, grinning cheek to cheek.

After that, Daniel stood up. “Alright, I will leave you to it, then. I’ll go pay my dad a visit now.”

“Okay, he seems to be quite grumpy recently. Go spend more time with him,” Gloria urged.

“Don’t worry about it. Just leave it to me.” Daniel patted Gloria on the shoulder and walked out the room.

Gloria raised her eyebrows before turning around to look at Alfred, “Go prepare a list of potential young bachelorettes who are suitable for Stanley. I’ll go liaise with their families.”
