Henry coughed softly to ease the embarrassment. “Matthew, I just came back from your grandpa’s. He has something to tell you.”“You must be kidding?” Matthew scoffed. “Grandpa’s most probably shaking with fury upon seeing his disgraceful, unfilial son. Would he really ask you to speak on his behalf? Ridiculous!”Henry ignored his mocking and spoke seriously. “Matthew, your grandpa wants me to tell you he doesn’t care if you’re just messing with that woman. But a divorced woman with a child is never going to be accepted to the Henderson family.”A flurry of emotions moved across Matthew’s features like a storm. “So what if I like a divorced woman?
