FreeNovelChapter 146 Kathy York was obviously surprised to see Isaac there as well.
Still, she did not speak with him as the elders were talking, and stayed quietly beside her own
grandfather.
However, even if Isaac did not speak, his mere presence certainly caught attention.
Cedric York noticed him immediately, and smiled. “Is this the grandson you’re so proud of?”
Henry did not hide his pride at all and chuckled heartily as he said, “Of course. He certainly outshone
my son and myself in our prime!”
Then, turning toward Kathy, he said, “And this is your sole granddaughter, I presume?”
Cedric sighed. “Indeed. We only have each other, now that her father has passed away due to illness
and her mother remarried.”
Henry sighed as well-he had lost his son too, and knew the pain of a parent who had to bury his child!
“Isaac, would you mind showing Kathy around the manor while we old friends catch up?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIsaac could tell immediately what his grandfather was up to.
Henry had told him to divorce Irene last time he was here, and was now trying to have him mingle with
another woman. What else could it be other than attempting to hook them up?
He was certainly upset. Although he would not throw a fit because Henry was still his grandfather, he
was not about to play along.
He suddenly suspected that Henry had arranged for Kathy to show up at his company in the first place.
With that, he left the room with no intention of bringing Kathy along.
Henry was about to offer some assurance, but Kathy quickly said, “It’s fine.”
As such, Henry waited until Isaac had left and said, “He’s actually not as cold as he looks. Please be
patient with him.”
“I will.” Kathy smiled.
She was good-looking and had a sweet smile. Henry was naturally satisfied with her, especially since
she was the only granddaughter of a friend and had a clean background.
“Well, it’s now up to you to get them together,” Cedric said.
“Yes, but this will take time. I’ve told you about the situation, and patience is needed here.”
In truth, Henry was not confident about their plan at all, but was willing to try.
After the disappointment that was Irene Spencer, he was forced to find another woman he can
count on!
Still, Cedric clearly admired Isaac. “Of course. Your grandson is a fine man, and Kathy likes him. Even
if I can’t wait, I’d have to be patient for Kathy’s sake.”
Henry arranged this after all, and they should likewise be confident.
Smiling at Kathy, he said, “It takes time for feelings to develop. Just try to reach out with Isaac more.
He should be outside, so go hang out with him.”
Kathy lowered her gaze with a shy smile. “Okay.”
Naturally, everything that just happened was staged for Isaac’s benefit.
Once Isaac strode out of the manor, he headed to the back garden and called Stan.

“Did you actually do a background check on the woman you hired yesterday?” Isaac asked. If his
hunch was right, Henry had arranged for Kathy to show up at Light Group in the first place!
“I did. She graduated from a famous university, but has no work experience…”
“What about her family?” Isaac coolly cut him short.
“Well, she told me that she was living abroad and only returned recently, but not much else…
Did something happen? Is she stalking you? But I’ve already sent her away…”
*Isaac was frowning and had a hand over his forehead. “You’re an idiot!”
However, his outburst was meant for himself as well!
How could he listen to Stan and get a woman to make Irene jealous?
Now he had brought trouble down on his own head!
On the other end, Stan was utterly puzzled by Isaac’s scolding.
“What did I do?”
Isaac promptly hung up, since he was in no mood to explain.
