Miss Josefina: Nobody's Princess novel Chapter 116

“Grandpa Brandon, you’re too kind, really. I’ve got a closet bursting at the seams with outfits - I can’t possibly wear them all in one summer, even if I switched up daily.”

Brandon pondered for a moment before saying, “I heard you’re fond of Gideon’s artwork. How about I get you a few more pieces?”

Josefina sighed. “Really, Grandpa Brandon, it’s not necessary.”

If Brandon placed the order, Josefina had to pick up her brush. She thought, “Give me a break, please.”

Calix, fearing Brandon would hijack his role as the art benefactor, quickly said, “Grandpa Brandon, my sister loves the paintings I pick out for her. If you take this joy from me, what am I left with? It’s hard enough as it is.”

Brandon chuckled, “Calix, my boy, I won’t steal your job, okay?”

“Thanks, Grandpa Brandon. You’re the best.”

The family’s laughter and warmth cast a shadow over Lena’s heart.

Just then, Brandon’s gaze landed on Lena. “Lena, you’re not getting any younger. Didn’t find love on campus? Want me to set you up with someone?”

Could it be that Brandon intended to play matchmaker with Oliver for her?

Flushing, Lena murmured, “Grandpa Brandon, I... I’ve already got someone in mind...”

Brandon seemed pleasantly surprised, then beamed, “Good for you, Lena! Go after your heart’s desire. Just like Oliver there, chasing after Josie with all he’s got!”

Oliver affirmed, “I’ll do my best.”

Lena was speechless. Damn it, was this old man playing games with her?
