“Oh, you don’t have to worry about that. I can find my own wife. Besides, I’ve already found her.” Susanne was startled at Vinson’s words and suddenly recalled the phone call earlier. Her pupils constricted as she exclaimed, “You didn’t make that up just to brush me off?” Not wanting to continue the conversation, Vinson glanced at his watch and said, “I have work to attend to.” Then, he strode off. Only then did Susanne realize Vinson was being serious and pressed on excitedly, “Who is she? What are her qualifications? What’s her name? Have I met her before?”
Of course, she was most concerned about the woman’s family background. She would never accept a woman from an average family to be her daughter-in-law. Even though it was extremely rare that her son took interest in a woman, Susanne would not make any exception. “You will meet her someday,” Vinson said before entering the elevator, which took him straight to the underground garage. He then drove off in his sports car. Susanne did not have the patience to wait. I need to find out who this woman is and run a background check on her.
After all, the Nightshire family shall accept women of prestigious families only. As such, she ordered the butler to find out Vinson’s recent whereabouts and consolidate a list of the women whom he had interacted with. After giving her instructions, Susanne returned to the dining room. With an apologetic smile, she said, “I’m so sorry, Wendy, my son is good at everything except dealing with women. Please don’t take it to heart, yeah?
It will be fine once you two get to know each other better.” However, Susanne was not aware that Wendy had heard their entire conversation. Worried that the mother-son pair would end up in an argument, the latter had chased out after them. But Wendy pretended that she knew nothing. Looking a little upset, she replied obediently, “Don’t worry about it, Ms. Stone. It’s normal for Mr. Nightshire to be dismayed.
