With competition and pressure, you will appreciate Elisa even more. I am testing you as a member of Elisa’s birth family. And as for Remy… these days, marrying a girl is quite challenging!”

“Julian is unwell?” Andrew seemed to have stumbled upon a new topic and quickly became intrigued, asking Zachary, “Brother, what’s wrong with Julian? Is he having issues in that area? No wonder he’s similar to Brother Duncan; he’s still single at this age. I thought he just hadn’t met someone he liked, which is why he’s unwell.”

Julian had always been the one observing others, never imagining that he would one day become the center of attention in someone else’s gossip.

“It’s not impossible; it suggests a lack of affection. He can only become a real man when he meets the right girl. If he doesn’t, he’s no different from a eunuch. I can’t say if it’s true or not, but when it comes to Julian’s pressure to marry, he mentioned it in front of us.”

After Zachary finished speaking, Andrew let out a sigh, his enthusiasm waning. “It must be a lie. He’s getting older; it’s normal for Julian to want to marry, but if he doesn’t want to, he’ll definitely find an excuse to reject his parents’ pressure.”

“But Julian has approached my grandma. Didn’t my grandma know a very powerful master? That master claimed I have a connection to your sister-in-law, and my grandma insisted I repay her favor by marrying her. I don’t know what the master told Julian, but he really stopped pushing me afterwards; it’s past Julian.”

Andrew blinked, “Could it be that what Julian said is true? What kind of ailment is that? I’ve never heard of it.”

Zachary replied, “I’m not a doctor, so I don’t know much about these things. I’m just relaying what Julian mentioned.”

Andrew stood up and poured himself a drink.

He took a sip from a cup of warm water to soothe his throat and remarked, “Mrs. Stone wouldn’t dare to impose ideas about Julian.”

“I should find Julian myself. What kind of luck am I getting into? I have to spend a lot of money to invite him, and I need help getting out of this mess.”

Andrew felt quite naïve.

If Elisa didn’t have feelings for Remy and Mrs. Stone was intent on pairing Andrew with Elisa, he was willing to give it a chance. After spending some time with Elisa, he began to change his perception of her, and it was possible he might fall in love after a while.

However, Elisa had her own affections, and Andrew was reluctant to accept Mrs. Stone’s matchmaking. Although Elisa and Remy were neither engaged nor married, Andrew could compete with Remy fairly if he chose to, but he was unwilling to do so.

His advantage was that he was a local from Wiltspoon. But even if he won her over and they married, would they truly be happy?

He also couldn’t bear the thought of his wife having feelings for someone else.

Therefore, it was better for him to stay out of the situation.

Zachary commented, “This is the downside of being single. If you had fallen in love sooner, gotten married, and had kids, you wouldn’t be in this predicament. My uncle doesn’t have to worry about your life. If you remain single for too long, my uncle will definitely turn to my grandma for help. You know who she is; none of us brothers can handle her, let alone you.”

Andrew replied, “How can I marry and have children if I haven’t met the right person at the right time?”

Zachary was left speechless, unable to counter his point.
