When the Wind is Sweet: The Fairy Tale of Mr. and Mrs. Lancaster-Chapter 759: President Fletcher’s Triumph

Rachel was at a loss for words. Just how long had he been eavesdropping outside?

Hearing his cousin’s words, Ben looked a bit displeased, "Hey, what do you mean? Is being young your excuse to put me down?"

This was outside the company!

No superior-subordinate relationship here! Of course, he’d have to indulge in some verbal sparring! 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

Chase Fletcher glanced at him coolly, then took a bite of the red bean cake Rachel handed him. He even grabbed Rachel’s other hand and, in front of everyone, took a big sip of the mung bean smoothie she’d been drinking.

This scene stunned Granny Hughes!

This... their relationship is quite close!

"Grandma." Chase looked at the elderly woman with a big grin on his face, "So delicious! I can tell it’s made by you. It’s still our favorite flavor from when we were kids."

Grandma??? Rachel looked at him in shock!

"You... you two..." Granny Hughes was also shocked, pointing at him, then at Rachel, still in a daze of surprise.

Chase held a red bean cake in one hand and proudly wrapped his other arm around Rachel’s shoulders, "Let me introduce, Grandma, this is your future granddaughter-in-law, my wife!"

Ben’s face changed dramatically, and he stared at him in disbelief!

Such a coincidence??

Rachel was also taken aback by this sudden introduction, blinking, her body stiff, cheeks reddening, unable to find the words.

Chase cast a knowing glance at Ben, his raised lips full of pride and boastfulness.

Granny Hughes, with her hair full of silver strands, finally regained her composure, having seen many storms before, "Good! Wonderful! Grandma has met Rachel several times, and I’ve grown more and more fond of her!"

"Grandma~!" Now Ben was unhappy, deliberately making a fuss—

"How could you do this? What are you delighted about? You said you’d introduce me to a girlfriend! You even said she was a perfect match for me. How come she’s suddenly become a perfect match for Chase? Is Reporter Sherman a universal fit?"

As his words sunk in, he deliberately shot Chase a defiant look, as if to provoke him!

But the term "universal fit" made Rachel sweat with embarrassment; it was as awkward as it could get.

Granny Hughes turned her gaze, sharply admonishing Ben, "Ben, there’s nothing for you here, hurry up and go! Off to work!"

"Grandma!"

"Go on!" Granny Hughes feigned anger, "I just called you over for breakfast, wasn’t this just on the way? Who’s introducing you to a girlfriend? There’s no such thing! Don’t talk nonsense!"

See, she just won’t admit it! Rachel felt Granny Hughes was inexplicably cute.

Chase, of course, wouldn’t dwell on whether there was a girlfriend introduction or not; he heard it all clearly outside just now.

He joyfully held Rachel in a victorious stance, exuding a look as if daring anyone to try and take her! A bit childish, really.

In his gaze toward his cousin, there was an added hint of pride, as if saying, you see, Grandma’s still on my side!

Ben was envious. From childhood, Grandma always favored his cousin!

He inadvertently glanced at Rachel a few more times. Lately, he felt something was off about his cousin, who could giggle to himself and even had him spend a lot to buy golf clubs.

Probably to give to his uncle on behalf of Reporter Sherman.

So he’s in love!

But Ben was genuinely happy for him. His eyes swept over, and with a smile, he grabbed a cup of mung bean smoothie from the table next to him and scurried away like a streak of lightning.

Granny Hughes’s loving gaze remained on Rachel, growing increasingly fond of her with each passing moment.
