When the SUV was pulled over, a servant walked up to them.
While unbuckling the seat belt, Clarence explained, "We didn't check him but wished to know him more. We love you, Mya, so we don't expect anyone to hurt our little girl. Don't be mad, Mya. We've agreed to let you be together, haven't we?"
However, Mya felt upset, thinking they had gone too far to check Finnley behind her back.
It showed her parents didn't trust Finnley. She couldn't accept them suspecting such an excellent man like Finnley.
"All right. All right." Shirley could tell how she felt. Holding Mya's hand, she consoled Mya, "Don't be mad. We'll get down soon. It's not your father's fault. I insisted on asking him to check Finnley. I was worried you would be hurt. What if he had got married in his hometown but pretended to be single in another city?"
"Mom! Can't you just trust him?" Mya was still upset.
"All right. All right. Let's talk about it some other day. Get down." Shirley pushed the door open and whispered to her, "Keep your good manners. Respect Mr. Russell as respecting your grandfather. They experienced life and death together, just like siblings."
After the Saunders family got down, bodyguards in suits greeted them politely to welcome them.
Two old men walked out of the living room with walking sticks, and the Saunders family strode towards them.
Mya didn't notice Finnley's car. Seeing the loving smile on Benedict's face, she felt weird. Although it was her first time seeing this old man, he looked familiar.
He reminded her of Finnley. Mya wondered if he was Finnley's grandfather.
The next second, she denied her thought as she didn't think it was possible.
She had such a weird thought because she had missed Finnley too much.
It wouldn't be so coincidental.
"Benedict, this is Clarence Saunders, my son-in-law. He's the city mayor of Arkpool City," Archie introduced proudly, "This is my daughter, Shirley Powell. This is my granddaughter, Mya Saunders. She's 20."
"Good day, Mr. Russell," the Saunders couple greeted Benedict. "Dad, you look great today. You both look spirited."
Mya bowed at Benedict and Archie politely. "Good day, Grandpa. Nice to meet you, Mr. Russell." Her voice was sweet and pleasant to the ear.
"You look in your seventies, Grandpa."
