During dinner, Tiffany did not make any trouble for Daniel because of the New Year.
The atmosphere was harmonious and lively.
In the afternoon, Sharon and Ruben paid respects to Josh at his tomb.
Looking at the photo on the tombstone, Sharon couldn't tell what she felt.
She had hated Josh before, and she had wished she wasn't Josh's biological child.
However, she didn't expect that her wish would come true.
For so many years, the father-daughter relationship between them had been on bad terms.
But looking back at what had happened in the past, it was truly regrettable.
Ruben bent down and placed the flowers in front of the tombstone with an indifferent expression.
After standing for a few minutes, Sharon said, "Let's go."
When Ruben stood up and was about to leave, he saw a cigarette around and paused for a while.
"What's wrong?" Sharon asked.
Ruben frowned slightly, "Apart from us, no one should come to see Josh."
Sharon nodded, "Nobody else knows his tomb here."
Ruben pursed his lips and asked Sharon, "Do you have any paper?"
"Yes."
Sharon took out a small packet of paper from her pocket and handed it to Ruben.
Ruben took out all the papers form the packet to pick up the cigarette butt in front of the tombstone and
then put them back into that packet.
Seeing it, Sharon frowned, "Ruben..."
"Just in case,’ Ruben said.
This was the first time Sharon felt that he was so cautious.
After taking a few steps, she suddenly asked, "Ruben, do you know anything?"
"What?"
Sharon opened his mouth, but he still didn't say anything, "Nothing.Are you going to hand it over to the
police?"
Hearing this, Ruben fell silent.
After a while, he said, "When will you visit Trey's home?"
Okay, she just stopped asking.
After leaving the cemetery, Sharon said, "Ruben, you can go back first.I have something to buy."
Although Trey said that there was no need to prepare gifts, visiting his parents empty-handed, would
not be good.
They went to different directions.
Sharon went to the mall.
Since she did not know Trey's parents and had no idea of what they liked, she just bought some
nourishment.
By the time Sharon returned home, it was already five o'clock in the afternoon.
She looked at her phone and found that there was no missed call or message.
The corner of Sharon's lips curled up as she put away her phone.
She pressed the password to open the door.
At home, Tiffany was the only one lying on the sofa, eating snacks and watching TV.
Hearing the noise, she raised her head and said, "Sharon, why are you back so late?"
"I went shopping."
Sharon changed her shoes.
"Hasn't Ruben returned yet?"
Tiffany said, "No, isn't he with you?"
"I asked him to come back first."
Sharon sat on the sofa and thought for a while before deciding to give Ruben a call.
He must go somewhere with that cigarette butt.
Tiffany said, "Sharon, you're thinking about Ruben again? Don't worry.He's mature enough to things in
in a proper way.’
"But I always feel that he is a little strange lately.It seems that he is hiding something from me."
If it were in the past, she would never ask about Ruben's person life.
However, too many things had happened recently, so how could she not think too much? Tiffany asked
conservatively, "Is he in love?"
"It's impossible..."
Why did he behave mysteriously if he was in a relationship? Tiffany continued to analyze, "Maybe
not.Ruben is different from other boys.He's just at puberty, and a little adolescent rebellion is common."
With that, Tiffany said, "Alright, don't think too much.Think about what you should do tonight."
Sharon came back to her senses and said, "What do you mean?"
"Aren't you going to Trey's home? What about that jerk?"
"I don't care about him.He can do whatever he likes.I don't owe him anything,’ Sharon said angrily.
Tiffany tut-tutted.
She didn't even know if Sharon would come back tonight.
Not long after that, Trey called when he was already downstairs.
When Sharon left, she said to Tiffany, "There are still some lunch dishes in the fridge.You can warm
them up and eat with Ruben tonight.You probably couldn't order any takeout tonight."
Tiffany nodded, "It's OK.Set your heart at rest.Don't worry about me."
Sharon went downstairs with the nourishment.
When Trey picked her up, he whispered, "Sharon, didn't I say that you don't need to buy anything? I
have already prepared.’ Sharon smiled and said, "Just small gifts for uncle and aunt."
Trey said, "My parents will definitely like you very much.’
South City was not crowded today, and there weren't even many cars on the streets.
Most of them had already returned home for the New Year.
Sharon leaned against the car window and looked at the street filled with festive atmosphere.
She stared blankly and her mind drifted away.
At the traffic light, Trey glanced at her and said slowly, "Sharon."
"What's wrong?"
Sharon pulled her mind back.
Trey pursed the corners of his lips and said, "I'm sorry to call you over at such a time.’
Hearing this, Sharon smiled faintly, "It doesn't matter.We have already eaten together with Ruben at
noon.Furthermore, we can see each other at any time.Never mind."
Very quickly, the car arrived at the Coe's.
When they got off the car, Trey said, "Sharon, my parents might ask when we will get married.You don't
have to worry.I will answer."
Sharon gently nodded, "Alright."
In front of the Coe's, Sharon took a deep breath.
Although it was a playacting, she was somehow nervous.
Just a second before they entered, Trey suddenly held her hand.
Sharon was stunned and subconsciously wanted to pull out her hand back.
But then, Trey's mother came out and smiled gently, "Trey is back.’
With that, he looked at Sharon and said, "This is Sharon? Look really beautiful."
Sharon nodded and greeted her, "Hello, auntie.I'm Sharon.”
Trey's mother grabbed her arm and said, "Please come in! Don't stand at the door.Come in.”
In the living room, Trey's father was sitting on the sofa watching the news related to scientific research,
and he looked serious.
Trey's mother held Sharon's hand and introduced her to Mr.Coe, "Rex, come here.This is Sharon."
"Hello, Uncle." Sharon said.
When Trey's father looked at Sharon, he paused for a few seconds.
From Sharon, he seemed to see someone else.
Seeing this, Trey stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder, "My girl is greeting you.Why are you
stunned?"
