But if Zephir liked the woman, he might just accept it.
Violet leaned closer to ask, "By the way, the girl is from an affluent family, right?"
Zephir’s lips moved.
"She’s the daughter of Mr.Nolan Goldmann."
"Mr.Goldmann’s daughter! ?"
Something came to Violet’s mind, then her face dropped, and she cursed, "F*ck!"
Weren’t they cousins of the Cliffords? At the Goldmann mansion...When the parrot was brought in,
Nolan started getting a headache because it got too rowdy.He rubbed the bridge of his nose.
"Your grandfather’s birthday is tomorrow.Don’t you think it’s noisy to bring it back so soon?"
"You’re the one who thinks it’s noisy.I think it’s fine, right, Big Spender?"
The parrot hopped in the cage.
"Big Spender isn’t noisy."
Daisie was elated.
Maisie walked down from upstairs and chuckled.
"Big Spender? The pet store owner is really good at naming."
The parrot flapped its wings happily.
"Pretty lady!"
Maisie paused and laughed out loud.
"This little thing is really smart."
Nolan’s face dropped.
‘Pretty lady?’ What was that little thing thinking about? Maisie walked to the cage and tickled its chin.
The parrot enjoyed it and started chirping.
Nolan took a deep breath, walked to Maisie, and pulled her into his arms.
"This is my wife."
"My wife, my wife!"
The parrot chirped happily.
Nolan wanted to defeather it then and there.
Maisie laughed and turned back to look at Nolan.
"Why are you annoyed by a parrot?"
He rested his chin on her shoulder and leaned in.
"It’s a male parrot."
Maisie was rendered speechless.
Daisie and Colton looked at each other.
They had lost their appetite.
As the night grew dark, the neon lights of Bassburgh Harbor lit up from the south to the north.
The lights blinked and shone into the car windows.
Elaine lowered the window to let the cool night air blow in.
She looked at the skyscrapers on the other side, which seemed to be covered in golden flakes that
reflected on the water.
"You brought me here for the view?"
She looked back at Ian in the driver’s seat.
His hand was on the steering wheel.
"Do you like the view here?" She paused.
"Quite."
Ian turned to look at her.
"What do you think about moving here?"
"You want to move out?" asked Elaine.
He nodded.
"I’ve thought about it."
She looked away.
"There’s no need to tell me that you're moving."
Ian put his arm behind her and leaned in with a smile.
"If we get married, do you plan to make me stay with your parents? “
"Do you think that’s a good idea?"
Elaine’s heart skipped a beat because he was so close she could hear him breathe.
She looked down and said quietly, "I’m not sure if I’m going to really marry you yet."
Ian’s finger brushed her cheek, startling her.
When she turned around, he kissed her.
His kiss drew her in deeply, and the warmth almost made her melt.
Elaine couldn’t help but put her arms around his back.
The neon lights outside made everything more beautiful.
Ian placed his palm on the side of her neck, his eyes burning with desire.
The face in his palm started to look clearer, and this time, there was no double vision.
It was all Elaine.
After a moment, they both pulled away.
Elaine's cheeks flared up, and she didn’t know where to look.
