Jacob's Pov.

After finally deciding to go down, I went downstairs and entered the dinning room. Looking over to the table I saw my grandpa smirking at me.

What's there to smile about?

"This is my grandson Jacob" he introduced as I approach the table. There a man, who looks like he's in his late 50s. He was dressed in a suit and send send me a smile before shaking my hands. Sitting beside the man was a woman who looked older than him. She was dressed in a long red dress and shook his hands.

And sitting beside her, there was a girl, who looked like she was in her 20s. She had chocolate brow hair that runs all the way down to her breast. Her soft, hazel green eyes that enhance her face, beautiful rosy pink lips and a define face, scattered with freckles. She wore a short, appropiate red dress that hug her curves.

"She looks different and she so pretty!" My conscious said and I push that thought away.

I took a seat before taking my fork up to eat. My eyes scanned the table and then our eyes met. She quickly averted her eyes and went back to eating.

I was still staring at her though. It's like my eues were attracted to her. But how can an innocent looking person like her be able to bribe my grandfather into marrying me? Just how?

But I quickly push that thought away. Looks can be deceiving. Maybe she did,I mean all this time my grandpa didn't bring up anything about marriage but all of a sudden he's threatening me to marry her? That's a little suspicious.

Anyway, I started to eat and tried not to stare at her.
'What kind of test is grandpa putting her to?' I wondered.

I watched as the maid went around and pour wine into our glasses. She went over to Sophia's side. "What some madam?"

Sophia politely replied with a yes and she poured some out for her. While she was about to walk away, some was spilled unto both of their clothes.

"I'm so sorry" the maid apologized

"It's okay." Her angelic voice responded while she had a polite smile."You've got some on you" I heard her say and the next thing I know, she was cleaning the maid's dress.

I was left amaze.

But I quickly changed my expression...

She must be acting.

She gotta be...

...

After eating, we all sat in the living room. My grandpa was talking to Sophia and her family while I sat their quietly.

A few minutes later, she excuse herself from us and went to the bathroom.

It was about 20 minutes later and my phone rang "I'll be right back" I said and left them.
