Wynn and Jorge didn’t ask about how Kieran and Caleb knew each other .
At that moment , Wynn said , “ Since we’ve run into each other , why don’t we have a meal together ? ” 75
As soon as she finished speaking , Jorge was just about to agree , but Kieran spoke first ..
“ No , I’ve got things to take care of . Maybe next time . ”
Right after Kieran spoke , Caleb also said , “ I’ve got plans as well . It’s not convenient — maybe next time . ”
Jorge had come with Caleb . He didn’t expect Caleb to say that .
Hearing this , he hesitated for a moment and could only echo , “ Yeah , next time then . ”
Wynn paid quite a bit of attention to Jorge . Noticing the change in his expression , she immediately realized that Caleb’s excuse about having plans was just a cover .
Most likely , he simply didn’t want to have a meal with her . 2
Thinking about that , she also realized that Caleb had always been rather indifferent toward her – not exactly cold , but certainly not warm either . 5
Realizing this , she gave a slightly awkward smile and said , “ In that case , next time , then . ” 1
Caleb gave a polite nod , patted Jorge on the shoulder , and left first .
As for Kieran , he had already sat back down , picked up his phone , and stopped acknowledging Wynn altogether .
His rejection didn’t come as a surprise to her .
But in the past , even when Kieran acted indifferent , he still couldn’t help secretly glancing at her or paying attention . 3
Now , though …
Once he said what he had to say , it was as if he really didn’t care about her anymore .
Wynn’s brow furrowed slightly , almost imperceptibly , but she quickly composed herself and said gently , “ Since you’re clear on things , I won’t say more . But your parents are really worried about you . If you have time , give them a call now and then . ” 3
With that , she said no more and turned to leave .
The Locket family and the Shaw family all knew Jorge and Caleb .
Seeing Wynn talking to them , they observed from afar and didn’t go over to interrupt .
When Wynn returned , Patricia said , “ Other than Kieran , the other two young men are the son of Mr. Robinson and the grandson of Mr. Jennings Senior , right ?
“ They’re all distinguished sons of prominent families in Baumond and highly capable too . They’re outstanding young men .
“ Especially Mr. Jennings Senior’s grandson – he doesn’t appear in public often . Why didn’t you chat with them a bit longer ? ”
Wynn had just sat down when Lennox chimed in , “ That’s right , Wynn . Whether it’s Kieran , Mr. Robinson , or Mr. Jennings , they’re all excellent in every way .

“ Your two younger cousins aren’t seeing anyone yet – if there’s someone suitable , keep an eye out for Janet and Linda . ”
Ruby quickly agreed , “ Yes , exactly ! ”
Before Wynn could respond , Janet quietly said , “ But both Mr. Gibson and Mr. Robinson are totally devoted to Wynn … Wouldn’t it be kind of inappropriate to introduce them to us ? ” 3
Lennox shot her daughter a disappointed look and said , “ What’s the problem with that ? Feelings can be cultivated .
“ They may like Wynn now , but if she actively helps connect you with them , who’s to say something couldn’t develop ? You won’t know unless you try . ”
Janet fell silent . 7
Then Wynn finally spoke , “ I don’t have much contact with them at the moment , so I wouldn’t dare presume to make any introductions . ”
“ That’s fine . If there’s any banquet in the future that Mr. Gibson or Mr. Jennings are attending , just bring Janet or Linda along . ” 13
