My Identities Were Revealed After Marriage novel Chapter 39

Chapter 39

Her parents and in-laws responded, "It's good that you're celebrating your marriage. At least you're making an effort to make it work. We won't feel burdened in our hearts for having encouraged this marriage."

Sandra and Levy exchanged looks and replied, "When did you force us to get married? Let's forget all that and focus on enjoying our lunch. I have to return to school," Sandra added.

The manager escorted them to their table and ensured they were settled. After taking their orders, he greeted them once again and left to retrieve their meals.

Observing this, Levy's parents were taken aback. They were well aware of Brovard Restaurant and Hotels, as it had become the leading group in the country's hotel and restaurant industry. Even if Levy had indeed saved the personal assistant and vice president, the manager's behavior indicated a level of respect typically reserved for higher-ranking individuals. Doubts began to arise in their minds. Could it be that Levy wasn't simply a savior to the personal assistant, but rather the owner of the restaurant himself, keeping it a secret from them?

They had noticed the initial surprise and disbelief on the manager's face when he saw them. However, they decided to let it go, knowing that their son was not an ordinary person.

Levy, too, was surprised by the heightened attention he received on this occasion. Although he had enjoyed privileges from the manager during his previous visits, there was something different now. The atmosphere was filled with fear and respect. He glanced at his parents and in-laws, a feeling deep in his heart telling him that the owner of the restaurant was among these two families.

He knew it couldn't be Sandra since he had already brought her here, and the manager's treatment towards them seemed normal. Lost in his thoughts, he was interrupted by a knock on the door. They granted permission for the person to enter, and a waiter appeared with their order.

Placing the dishes on the table, the waiter asked if there was anything else they needed. "That's all, thank you. You may continue with your tasks," they replied. They enjoyed their meal in silence, engaging in occasional small talk.

Deborah then spoke up, "Mom, Dad, I want to change my course. I want to study medicine, just like my sister-in-law. That way, I can be with her all the time and protect her."

They all looked at Deborah, taken aback by her sudden decision. She had always been a child without ambitions, and once she set her mind on something, it was difficult to change it.

Levy voiced his concerns, saying, "Given your behavior and performance, joining the field of medicine will not only make my wife's life challenging, but it will also make me worried about you."

Rolling her eyes, Deborah turned to her parents and sister-in-law, pleading, "Please, Mum, Dad, trust me. I will do my best to catch up with my classmates. Sister-in-law, I promise you won't have to worry about me. I don't want to be separated from you. I just want to spend more time with you, get to know you, and become your friend. I'm new to this city, and I don't know many people, so please allow me to be with you. I won't disrupt your peace or cause any trouble."

Witnessing Deborah's sincerity in wanting to be friends with her, Sandra, who typically disliked being close to others, couldn't help but soften her heart. She responded, "As long as you excel in all your exams and don't create any problems for yourself or me, I have no issue with you pursuing medicine. However, remember that this should be your own life goal and achievement. You cannot do it just because of me. You must have a genuine passion for it before you consider this path."

"I will ask you a question: Are you truly passionate about medicine or health? We can still be friends even if you choose a different course from mine, because once you enter the medical field, there's no turning back. I don't want you to regret making a hasty decision when it's too late to change. We are not at university to spend the rest of our lives there."

Hearing her sister-in-law's words, spoken with her best interests in mind, Deborah was deeply moved and tears welled up in her eyes. She said, "I was right in wanting you as a friend. You not only think about my immediate benefits but also consider my future. I have always wanted to be a doctor, but I was afraid of making that decision. However, now that you have given me hope, I am ready."
