Love Began with the First Meeting novel Chapter 1227

Pursing her lips, Elsa felt so elated when she heard words of praise for Charlie. All the anger towards Charlie was soon put to the back of her mind.

The days had passed, and soon it was the weekend.

When Elsa and Charlie were having lunch together on Friday, Charlie had informed her that they would be going back to H City to see her parents. The idea of them going back home together made Elsa's heart warm. She was an easily satisfied person. At times she would throw a tantrum, but it was rare. Once she had agreed to be Charlie's woman, she was very determined to make it work and adapt to his way of life.

There was no reason for her to regret the choice she made.

Initially, the plan was that only Charlie and Elsa would go to H City. However, two other people decided that they would tag along as well. They were Evelyn and Ezra. According to them, they would be serving as the bridesmaid and the best man.

Charlie found it amusing, but he wasn't against the notion. Evelyn didn't notice that Ezra took the opportunity to be close to her again. Maybe she had noticed, but she didn't mind.

They drove in two separate cars, Evelyn and Ezra in one and Charlie and Elsa in the other. It took over two hours for them to arrive in H City and it wasn't until this road trip that Elsa realized that she had been wrong. Evelyn's driving skill was reasonable in comparison to Charlie's. He was insane.

Once they parked their cars, Evelyn stomped over to Charlie's and opened the driver's door. "You didn't even let me win!" Evelyn complained.

Ezra hurried over to Evelyn to console her. "Evelyn, don't be angry. Your brother was just eager to see his parents-in-law."

"Hmm, that makes sense," Evelyn inclined her head and said. "Okay, I'll forgive you for this one."

Charlie and Elsa got out of the car as well. Caressing Evelyn's head, he said, "Don't drive so fast in the future. Otherwise, I won't let you win even once."

Evelyn nodded. Hugging Charlie's arm, she turned to Elsa and asked, "Elsa, my sister-in-law, are you going home or coming with us to the hotel?"

"I.. I'll go home first..." Elsa stammered.

"All right." Evelyn let go of Charlie. "I'll drive you there."

Elsa glanced at Charlie and said goodbye before she got into Evelyn's car.

Tomorrow both of the families would meet for the first time. Elsa had to go back home and explain everything to her parents and prepare them for the meeting. Then the next day she would accompany both her parents. Although Evelyn was a playful girl, she understood what Elsa had to do, and she didn't pressure her to stay with them.

After Evelyn's car disappeared, Ezra got into Charlie's car. "What's happening with the matter about the Shen Family?" he asked.

Charlie's expression was indifferent. Then his lips curled into a sinister smile, and he slowly uttered, "If my brother does this, I'm afraid it's more than that." Then he started the engine and drove to the hotel.

Ezra sighed, "Someone is just too confident. I've read the news. To save themselves from the trouble, the Gu Family announced that the engagement between Rita and Allen was canceled. Even so, I'm afraid when the market opens on Monday, the share of Gu's Corporations will fall." While he spoke, he glimpsed at Charlie. "You either stay quiet, or you make a ferocious move. You're such a typical Long Family member."

Charlie kept silent for the rest of the trip. After he parked the car and walked to the lobby of the hotel, he calmly said, "I'm not a brutal person by nature, but I have given him numerous chances, and he chose to ignore me. I have no other choice."

Ezra sighed helplessly. George had approached him and was told that the things decided by the Long Family were final; the only people that could change the minds of the Long Family members were their spouses.

But was Allen going to beg Elsa for that?

Maybe not. Even if he did consider it, Charlie wouldn't give him a chance to talk to Elsa.

While Ezra was thinking about that, they had arrived at their room. After a brief rest, Charlie gave Brian a call. "Dad, we're at the hotel."

Brian was out shopping when the phone rang. "I'm buying gifts with your mother for the meeting with Elsa's parents tomorrow."

"Don't be too extravagant." Charlie frowned, afraid that his mother would go too far. "Elsa's family are middle-class. I don't want to pressure her family too much."
