Unfortunately, if Max didn’t want to do something, no one could make him do it

James really gave Halle a strong sense of security. They hadn’t even been together for a month, yet he was already introducing her to his family.
Halle had never imagined she would meet his mom so soon.
“Don’t overthink it,” James said. “I just want you to see that leaving Edgar wasn’t a big deal.”
The truth was, James was a little jealous of the place Edgar still held in Halle’s heart.
He wanted her to understand that there was something better waiting for her.
“Edgar’s parents were nice to you, sure,” James continued. “But not that nice. Otherwise, they would ve noticed something was wrong with him.
“I know you can’t fully let go of them. But what you really can’t let go of is that tiny bit of warmth. Your own family wasn’t great, so when you met something slightly better, it felt amazing. But there are families. out there that are even warmer. I’ll show you one today.”
James looked proud of himself.
Halle couldn’t help but smile.
She was already used to his confidence.
“I’m not lying,” James added. “At home, I even call my parents by their first names.
Halle’s eyes widened. “Really?”

Chapter 89% towing Environment
Halle had never imagined a family like that.
In her eyes, the Bowman were already pretty warm.
But thinking deeper, Tyler was still strict with Edgar. Hayley had to smooth things over, or the atmosphere would get tense.
If the family had truly been that warm, Edgar wouldn’t avoid going home. He wouldn’t have grown up so insecure and sensitive.
Still, the Bowmans were much better than her own family.
And now, there was something even more unbelievable.
Meeting James felt like finding a treasure.
He kept bringing her surprises-and showing her what a normal, warm family could be like.
Halle found herself looking forward to it.
Soon, Halle met James’s parents.
After just a few words, she could tell-James hadn’t lied at all.
Before coming, she hadn’t felt any pressure.
First, because James handled everything so smoothly
Second, this was her first time dating someone older than her, so she didn’t have to worry about it as much.
If anything felt off, she could just tell James and let him handle it.
And every time, he stayed calm and solved things without stress.
That kind of trust made her less resistant when he suggested meeting his parents.
So, she came in feeling relaxed.
The moment they met, James’s parents gave her warm and sincere compliments,
Then they started teasing James for “robbing the cradle,” treating Halle like a little girl and doting on her.
What made it different was that they didn’t just say nice things-they truly meant them.
The Reagens were one of the wealthiest families in the city. Halle had expected them to be distant or proud. But instead, they were incredibly down-to-earth.
It made her realize every family has its own atmosphere.
The Bowmans were more traditional. The father held strong authority.
