“So, what did you pick?” “Some wine and supplements.” “That’s great! Grandpa likes having a drink before dinner,” Josephine said in approval and reckoned that Ethan had a good eye for gifts.
At Josephine’s home, Heidi was a little surprised that Josephine hadn’t mentioned that she had a boyfriend before this. “That girl told me that she was working with a colleague for the past few days! Was she dating in secret?” she said, amused and helpless, realizing that her little girl was a grown-up now.
“You’re too protective of her. She’s already twenty-five years old. It’s about time she moves out to live by herself,” Mills said to his wife. Regarding this, he was more open minded compared to her. “Could her boyfriend be Luke Clark? I think that boy is quite good. He was very friendly during the wedding.”
“Sounds good. At the very least, Dad approves of the boys from the Clark Family.”
Even Mills agreed that it wouldn’t be bad if their son-in-law was Luke.
Just then, Josephine came in through the door connecting to the garden. Worried that
Ethan would feel awkward, she turned around and hooked her arm through his as they entered.
In the living room, Mills and Heidi heard their footsteps and came out to take a look.
When Heidi saw Ethan, her jaw dropped because the man was the last person she was expecting to see. Is he the guy Josephine has been dating recently? As the best man of the Presgraves’ wedding and a friend of Elliot, he must be a member of the gentry!
While she was still in shock, Ethan greeted them, “Nice to meet you, Mr. and Mrs. Jacobson. I’m Ethan Quarles, Joey’s boyfriend.”
Mills wasn’t expecting that Josephine’s boyfriend would be such a tall, dashing man with a sophisticated air about him. However, Heidi already answered warmly,
“Welcome! Come on in. It’s Ethan, right? I remember you from the wedding.” Then, she turned to Mills and explained, “He was the best man during Young Master Elliot’s wedding.”
At the sight of how pumped up Mills seemed, Heidi couldn’t help but ask, “Mills, have you heard of Ethan’s company before?” Next to them, Josephine smirked. Dad’s reaction is over the top!
“Of course I’ve heard of it before. The world’s top shipping company is called Cyrus. Ethan, could this be your company?” “Yes, that’s my family business,” Ethan admitted with a nod and a chuckle.
Heidi almost blacked out at his answer. What?! My daughter’s boyfriend is one of the world’s richest men, eh? Initially, she thought that Ethan was just a rich young master from abroad, but his status made her jump out of her skin. “Mom, Dad, it’s getting late. Shouldn’t we get ready and head to Grandpa’s?”
“Joey, I have some gifts to bring over. Come help me out.” After saying that, Heidi gave Josephine a look and beckoned her to come with her. Following her upstairs, Josephine trotted into her room, and the moment the door shut, Heidi rushed to her and asked, “Joey, tell me the truth -are you guys really dating each other?”
“Yes, we are!” Josephine admitted, nodding. “Honestly, I wish that you can marry a good and rich man, but… the difference between our family and Ethan’s is too great!”
