Tiffany didn’t say a word, staring at the luxury car outside that was about to disappear from view with
her eyes wide open.
The classmate next to her continued, “Do you think she holds a grudge?”
Tiffany said, “It’s just a misunderstanding. What does she have to hold a grudge against? Besides, I
didn’t break the law. What can she do to me?”
Inside the car.
“How did you get those friends?” Joshua frowned slightly.
Bonnie said, “I don’t know them well. I met them by chance just now.”
She turned her head to look over, “Are you angry?”
“What do I have to be angry about?” Joshua said deliberately, “My sister will come over tonight. How
about you go with me to pick her up?”
Bonnie nodded, “Okay.”
She knew all about Amanda from the conversation between Joshua and the elders.
She didn’t ask much.
“Here you go.” Joshua put the cake he bought into her arms, “Have some.”
Bonnie looked at the cake in the box and asked, “What if I turn fat after eating it?”
“It’s alright. It’s comfortable to hug if you turn chubby.” Joshua chuckled.
“Stop it.” Bonnie lowered her eyes, smiling inside, yet she pretended to be angry on the surface.
Soon the car stopped.
They were at their newly purchased house. The custom-made furniture had arrived and needed Bonnie
to see how they should be placed.
Bonnie was still holding the unfinished cake after getting out of the car. She had eaten three pieces but
just left the last bite, and she really couldn’t eat it anymore. She walked to Joshua, “Open your mouth.”
Joshua was stunned.
“What for?”
“Open your mouth,” Bonnie said petulantly.
Joshua alertly and slowly opened his mouth. She then grabbed the chance and quickly shoved the
piece of cake in her hand into his mouth while saying, “I really can’t eat anymore. You eat it for me.”
Joshua looked at her, swallowed the cake and then stretched out his arms to take her into his arms,
“You sneaky.”
Bonnie pushed him, “Can you be a bit normal when we’re at the outside?”
“Hey, isn’t it the time for you to run after me?” Joshua trolled her intentionally.
Before he came to City C and Boyce was not promoted and transferred away from other cities, they
used to be at the same primary school. Bonnie would always follow him no matter where he went.
Later, when he came to City C, the two of them separated.
However, they still had feelings for each other.
Joshua had always doted on her like his real sister.
He didn’t know if he was in love with her or just taking her as his family. But anyway, he didn’t repulse
it, and he liked the feeling of spending time with her.
Bonnie shyly pushed him away and ran inside. She had many embarrassing stories when she was a
child. When she heard that she was arranged marriage with him since she was a child, she was naive
and always said, “I want to be your bride when I grow up.” Now that she had grown up, she felt shy
when Joshua mentioned her past, remembering what she had said as a child.
Joshua ran in after her.
Inside the house, Theresa was instructing the workers to arrange the furniture. When she saw Bonnie
come in, she said with a smile, “You’re just in time. How do you think?”
After Joshua had come to City C, Theresa and Armand had always taken care of him and they had an
excellent relationship.
Now that he was getting married, Theresa and Armand were even busier and more attentive than his
own parents.
They had come over early in the morning to help set up the new room with the new furniture.
Bonnie smiled, “It looks great.”
Theresa sighed. Her appearance didn’t change much, but there were wrinkles on her face. Even if she
hadn’t had any children, her figure had also significantly changed. Plus, after Armand’s grandma died,
Armand took good care of her too. She lived a comfortable life and looked in good shape, “Time flies
and you’re all getting married soon.”
“You have said this many times.” Joshua walked over and put his arm around her shoulders, “Afraid
that you’re getting old? Don’t worry, Mr. Bernie is all over you, and he won’t abandon you when he’s
old.”
“Nonsense.” Theresa turned around and glared at him.
Joshua laughed, “I was wrong, don’t be mad. It will make you look old.”
Theresa raised her hand just to hit him, but he ran away first, “Mind your image. The way you hit and
glare someone is not elegant.”
Joshua was cheerful and lively. Although he had left his parents early, he had grown up in the care of
everyone. Theresa and Armand had no children, and they had treated him as their own child. He was
also Boyce’s son-in-law. So they were good to him from the bottom of their hearts.
Boyce had also taught him a lot, and he was able to stand on his own at such young age.
“When will you be mature? You’re about to get married though.” Theresa placed the cushions on the
sofa and shook her head, looking at him helplessly. Suddenly she thought of something and looked up
and Joshua, saying earnestly, “When is Amanda coming?”
She sighed again as she said, “Your mom is not in good health and she is still angry with your dad
because of her matter. Since you’re getting married, she can come back now. Everything could be
done was done and the matter was over too but she still didn’t come back. It’s so worrying.”
Speaking of Amanda, Joshua also restrained his feelings, “I’ll pick her up at the airport tonight.”
“Really? She’s finally coming back to face us?” Theresa asked excitedly.
“It’s true.”
“What’s true?” Armand was on the first floor with gloves on his hands, as if he was moving something.
He stepped down the stairs as he took them off.
