“Royce just proposed to Chloe here in the office. It was beautiful,” Grant said.
His brother could be sentimental at times too. “Are you kidding me?” Carolyn screeched. “Finally!”
“I was wondering if it was going to happen,” Grant said. “It’s been hard not to push them, but Richard told us to hold back and we had to honor it. He said he felt like he knew his son and that he needed to do it on his own.”
He and Grant had wanted to start dropping hints but decided that this was just one of those relationships that had to work its way out on its own. And it did.
“We all know our kids. I’m surprised you two actually listened,” Diane said.
He turned his head and saw Royce and Chloe standing there laughing. Royce said, “Now I know why everyone backed off.”
“It didn’t take you two long to start spreading the news,” Chloe said.
“Congratulations,” Diane and Carolyn both shouted into the phone.
Chloe and Royce moved past them and Garrett figured it was to go and spread the news before he and his brother could do it. He supposed it was only fair to let them. He’d call Jolene and Gavin tonight and let them know the good news too.
Once they were off the phone with their wives, he turned to his brother. “Now what? We had two working at once and it’s over. It doesn’t seem right.”
“It’s never over,” Grant said. “Give it time and the next will come to us. We can sit back and watch Jolene and Gavin struggling with Faith. You know Gavin took more of an interest in this one.”
“That’s true. They like to pick on us, but Gavin seems to have had more to do with the two girls in the family. We can rub his face in it over him being rusty later tonight,” Grant said.
“He might have started all this years ago, but we are catching up and becoming damn good at it.”
