NovelEnglishAva smiled. “Of course.” After all, this was related to her granddaughter’s future.
While savoring a piping hot breakfast, Shirley contemplated that meeting her grandmother's friend would likely be a laid-back
affair. After all, she just needed to enjoy herself.
Around 11.00AM, Shirley drove Ava out. She didn’t notice that a black SUV had been parked for two hours on the nearby street.
Inside the car, Tony, who had been playing mobile games, was more than happy to wait.
“Oh, here they come.” When Tony saw her car, he immediately put down his phone and stepped on the gas to catch up to them.
Following Ava’s instructions, Shirley drove toward a somewhat vintage street. It seemed to be a preferred spot for affluent ladies to
have afternoon tea. The area was also dotted with various restaurants, globally recognized ones included.
Finally, Shirley parked in front of a high-end Mediterranean restaurant before she helped Ava out of the car. Not long after they
entered, a figure dressed in fusion attire also walked in. To avoid being recognized by Shirley, Tony deliberately wore a mask and
sunglasses.
The restaurant’s private rooms were not completely enclosed but separated by wooden screens, giving a stylish and open feeling.
From the outside, one could catch a glimpse of what was going on inside the private rooms.
Shirley, accompanying Ava, entered a private room and saw an elegantly dressed old lady already seated there.

Shirley greeted the woman politely.
“Oh my, what a beauty! I've seen your photos from when you were young. | expected you'd grow up to be quite stunning,” Lyra
commented, thoroughly pleased, as she appraised Shirley from head to toe.
Shirley was happy to receive compliments. However, she couldn't help noticing how Lyra seemed particularly interested in her and
was thoroughly inspecting her.
“What about your boy?” Ava asked.
Lyra smilingly replied, “He’s on his way!” Shirley was slightly surprised, wondering if more guests hadn't arrived yet.
“Come, let's order sdishes!” The older women began discussing what to eat. Tony happened to choose a solo spot where he
could observe the situation in the private rooms. He wondered if Zacharias had overthought the situation, perhaps assuming
Shirley was meeting a guy. However, she was simply having lunch with her grandmother. Since Tony was already there, he decided
to have lunch in the restaurant.
Just then, another person entered the restaurant. This man looked quite handsome, and even Tony couldn't help but steal glances
at him. As he observed, he saw the man heading toward Shirley's private room.
Tony's eyes widened, and his mental radar started beeping.
It seemed Zacharias had foresight! Did he guess that Shirley was here to meet a handsguy? And that guy looked wealthy and
successful. Although not as influential as Zacharias, he belonged to an elite group.
Surely Shirley isn’t planning to ditch Uncle Zacharias! Tony quickly took out his phone and zoomed in, trying to capture the scene
inside the private room.
Meanwhile, Shirley was also taken aback. She didn’t expect the other guest to be a young man.
“Letintroduce you. This is my grandson, Carlisle Dawson,” Lyra joyfully introduced.
Carlisle looked at Shirley, stunned. His grandmother had coerced him into this blind date, and despite his initial refusal, it hadn't
worked. He didn’t expect the blind date to be such a beautiful woman who radiated a healthy kind of beauty.
“Hello, I'm Carlisle Dawson.” “Hi! The name's Shirley Lloyd.” Even though Shirley felt awkward, she graciously introduced herself
as well.
“My friend, it's been many years! Come, let's sit together and have a good chat,” Lyra suggested.
Ava strongly agreed to it. As the private room had two rows of seats, the two elderly ladies squeezed together, leaving the two
young people to sit together as well.
