After all, some time ago when he started causing trouble outside and did not dare to tell his parents
about it, his sister had always been the one to help him take care of those matters.
Sometimes, he would wonder if she was the elder sister and he was her younger brother.
…
Everything in the province was basically completed, and now, what was left would be given to the
subordinates to handle. Of course, Dawson would arrange for all of these.
As such, Jasper brought Wendy back to the city.
It had been a while since they came back. The moment Jasper and Wendy stepped through the door,
they heard Jasper’s mother, Sally, nagging at them.
“Even if you’re busy, you have to rest and eat well. Where did you two go these few days? I saw that
the lights in the house you’re living in next door were turned off at night. I didn’t see you two as well.”
“We were in the province these few days. We were with Wendy’s father.” Jasper took off his coat and
hung it on the rack while replying.
“You’ve met her parents?” Sally had joy written all over her face.
“Did you remember to bring a gift?
“Did you forget your manners?
“Is Wendy’s father satisfied with you?”
Sally’s back-to-back questions caused Wendy to blush. She said quickly, “Sally, it was just a normal
meeting. The main purpose of the meeting was still the business collaboration. It’s not what you think.”
“Wendy, it’s nothing to be ashamed of. Let’s discuss this when Jasper’s father comes back. Let’s
decide a time for us parents to meet,” Sally said something astonishing.
Jasper did not know whether to laugh or cry. “What meeting between parents? Mom, stop interfering!”
“What nonsense are you talking about, kid? Do you still want Wendy to stay with you with no status? I
won’t agree to it, and the parents should meet when it’s almost time. According to our tradition, the
man’s family should go to the woman’s home and invite the woman over.”
The more Sally talked about this, the happier she became. She wanted so badly to call Charlie back
right now to discuss the meeting of the parents.
When Jasper saw Wendy being as shy as a mouse and wanting very badly to hide, he coughed dryly.
When he was about to say something, the phone rang.
The person calling was John. He said it had been a while since they met each other, so he wanted to
invite Jasper out for a gathering.
Jasper could hear some hidden trouble that John could not mention amidst his stammers.
As such, Jasper agreed without a second thought.
Back then, John had helped him a lot, so if he could help him now, Jasper would not be stingy about it.
When Sally heard Jasper saying that he needed to go out right after coming home, her face fell
immediately.
“You’re always so busy and don’t even have time to eat at home, huh?”
Jasper said helplessly, “It’s about social nicety, and I can’t decline. I’ll come back early.”
After he said that, Jasper ran away under Wendy’s eyes that were filled with a secret grudge.
After Sally nagged for a while, she turned around and beamed at Wendy. She said, “Wendy, let’s ignore
him. What do you want to eat? I’ll buy the ingredients now and make it for you.”
Wendy answered in a lovable manner, “Sally, let’s go together. I want to learn how to cook from you as
well.”
The more Sally looked at Wendy, the more she adored her. She said unhurriedly, “Alright, let’s go to the
supermarket. I think Jasper’s father should be back when we’re done.”
20 minutes later, Jasper arrived at the agreed location.
It was a cafe.
Nowadays, if someone wanted to eat out, it was either a down-to-earth restaurant or a high-end
restaurant. There would not be a myriad of choices like in the future.
As such, the existence of a cafe would gain popularity among ordinary people because it seemed
stylish and pretty petit-bourgeois to them.
After Jasper found the private room, Jasper pushed the door open to see John sitting and drinking
alone.
‘What happened? You look like you just went through a breakup.”
John sighed and said, “Brother, you have to help me this time. If not, I’ll be done for.”
