Miya is vigilant. She’s about to close the door when Susan stops her in time.
“Why do think I should trust you?”
“Because I know where did Alex to last night.”
Miya can’t help being suspicious of Alex, when she hears what Susan says the riddle becomes harder to explain. She almost comes up to ask her, but she restrains herself at last. “He just joined the social activity for an important project to Alex Group.”
Susan laughs after she hears what Miya says, “Did he tell you like that? To my surprise, he actually told you like that.”
Miya is disgusted with Susan’s smile, as if she is laughing at her.
“Miya, I thought you would be different, but I didn’t expected that you would end up like me.” Susan looks a bit crazy. She pushes Miya away, walking inside and sitting on the coach.
Because Miya didn’t sleep well last night, her mental state doesn’t look well.
“Alex stayed with me last night.” Susan looks at Miya and says.
“So, are you eager to show off to me? ” Alex specifically told her before he couldn’t be with Susan any more. So it shouldn’t...be together for a whole night.
Besides the smiles, there’s a touch of loneliness on Susan’s face, “I’m not showing off to you. I just try to tell you that Alex’s going back to his parents’ house tonight.”
“Going back to Parent’s House? It’s just a dinner with his parents.” But Alex told her never meddle in the matters in that house. Her eyes open wider unconsciously. There’s a voice in her mind, “Alex, don’t let me down!”
“Just a dinner?” Looking at Miya’s facial expression, Susan is sure that Miya doesn’t know the purpose of the dinner. “It is a blind date dinner for Alex held by his father. He’s going to choose a daughter in law comes into his sight.”
Miya’s face turns pale, but she says, “Father has only one child. Do you make a mistake?”
“No, I don’t. Do you think only a handful of people will read the magazines with your pictures? I’m afraid they’ve spread all over their circle. I know Alex’s father is an old-fashioned geezer. And he thinks highly of well-matched marriage.” Susan remembers the look of Augus, she still feels kind of uncomfortable.
Years ago she left Alex because of her willfulness, but there was more because of Augus.
Augus always looks down on her, although she was dating with Alex at that time, Augus tried to introduce a lot of socialites to Alex. Alex loved her, and treasured her all the way so she caused a lot of trouble.
How could she stand up to these! She didn’t pay attention to Alex at the beginning, but she changed her attitude to him later. When she was going to treat Alex well and accept Andre, Augus found her and said some harsh words in to her.
“Our son is always outstanding. Although he is a father now, he still can marry a socialite. And you, I think I don’t need to say much.”
“Many of the socialites are good-looking, gentle, and smart. What do you think you are qualified to be with Alex?”
He had said a serious of harsh words, she also argued with him at that time.
“But Alex only loved me, he didn’t love any of those socialites.”
His arrogance made Augus angry.
