At the Coe's.
The flowers had been cleaned out.
Mr.Coe sat on the sofa and said in a low voice, "What exactly is going on?"
Mrs.Coe patted him on the shoulder and frowned, "Don't be so serious.let's at least hear Trey out."
Trey stood still and replied after a while, "Mom and Dad, I lied to you."
"A lie? Trey, what do you mean?"
"Sharon is not my girlfriend, but I really like her.I asked her to do me a favor and come back to see
you."
Actually, Trey did it for another reason.
He had thought that he must be different from the others in her heart if Sharon agreed to visit his
parents with him.
Then he could still ask her to pretend to be his girlfriend next time.
Unexpectedly, Jameson appeared and ruined all this.
Mr.Coe said, "Look at what you've done!"
After a while, Mrs.Coe said, "Then are those flowers sent by her boyfriend?"
Trey shook his head, "It's her ex-husband.They are divorced but he has been pestering her.Sharon has
refused him."
Mr.Coe said sullenly, "Why didn't you tell us that she has gotten divorced?"
"I don't think it's necessary."
"No need? You've decided to take her home.Shouldn't you tell us about her basic background? Now
her ex-husband came to our home.Don't you think it's a shame?"
"Alright, let's stop here.I think Sharon is a nice girl.I like her quite a bit.Since her ex-husband wants to
get her back, she must be pretty good.It's best if she is able to marry Trey.However, we can't force her
if she is not willing to."
As Mrs.Coe spoke, she turned to Trey, "Trey, you should keep in mind.If she likes her ex-husband, you
should let her go.If she likes you, it would be the best result."
Trey did not say anything, his lips pressed together.
Mrs.Coe said, "I'm going to tidy up the kitchen.Don't start arguing again.Today is the Spring Festival."
After Mrs.Coe left, Mr.Coe stood up and said, "Go to the study with me."
In the study, Mr.Coe said, "Did you got all that your mother said?"
Trey nodded.
Mr.Coe continued, "I believe that you should be clear who that girl exactly likes.If she likes you, she
would return home with you as your true girlfriend today.”
Trey frowned and knew what his father meant, "Dad, there are some reasons that you don't know...."
Mr.Coe said, "I don't know and I don't want to know either.Since she doesn't like you, you shouldn't
waste too much time on her."
"But I like her very much."
"So, what if? You're not seventeen or eighteen.There are a lot things more important than your silly
love."
Hearing this, Trey stopped talking.
Mr.Coe added, "Alright, I'm done.Think about it yourself.”
Trey had just returned to his room when his phone vibrated.
It was Sharon who sent a message, telling him that she had arrived home.
Trey subconsciously wanted to call her, but he hesitated and only gazed at her number.
Even his parents could tell that Sharon liked Jameson instead of him.
He had been deceiving himself, hoping that she could forget Jameson and like him one day.
In the morning.
When Sharon woke up, he heard the phone on the bedside vibrating.
She took it and took a look.
There were a lot of messages and red envelopes, wishing her happy new year.
Sharon rubbed her painful temples and replied one by one.
After she was done, Sharon shuffled out of the bedroom and saw Tiffany setting the table.
On the table were steaming porridge and rich food.
Seeing her, Tiffany said, "Sharon, you're up.Wash up and have breakfast.’’ Sharon lay on the sofa and
opened her eyes with difficulty.
"Did you order takeout?"
Tiffany said, "No.Ruben took them back."
Ruben came out of the kitchen and said, "I didn't buy that.I just met a deliveryman in the elevator."
Sharon felt confused.
What were they talking? After staring at the foods for a moment, she gradually understood.
Then she turned around and entered the bathroom.
After washing up, Sharon felt more awake.
She drank a glass of honey water and the faint pain in her temples slowly dissipated.
Sitting at the table, Tiffany rubbed her hands and said, "It's a pretty nice breakfast.Thank Mr.Proctor for
me.I'm going to enjoy it."
Sharon scratched her eyebrows, not knowing what to Say.
Ruben served her a bowl of porridge, "Let's eat."
After finishing the breakfast, Tiffany asked, "Sharon, Ruben, what do you want to do this afternoon?
How about going to the movies."
Sharon nodded, "I'm okay but I need to have a rest now.’
Then she headed to her room.
"I have plans,’ Ruben said after a moment of silence.
Tiffany looked at him suspiciously, "What's your plan? Come on.Are you in love?"
Hearing this, Sharon stopped and turned to look at him.
Ruben was speechless.
He said, "No.I have an appointment with my classmates."
"Male or female?"
"Both..."
Tiffany's eyes instantly lit up.
She asked, "Are there any handsome boys?"
Knowing her intention, Sharon quickly covered Tiffany's mouth and said to Ruben, "Alright, Ruben, go
deal with your business.Remember to come back for dinner.’
"Bye."
After Sharon and Ruben left one after another, Tiffany sat at the dining table alone.
She looked at the dishes which were plenty left and then took out her phone, dialing out a number.
The phone was connected quickly.
Tiffany cleared her throat and said, "Mr.Green, this is Tiffany Momon."
"Hello, Miss Momon.May I help you?"
"I want to ask if Mr.Proctor have to work today?"
Hearing it, Jacob was slightly puzzled.
Today was the Spring Festival so Mr.Proctor had no work.
"No, he is free today,’ he said slowly.
Tiffany smiled and said, "I see.Sharon and I are going to see a movie this afternoon.I'll book an extra
ticket and send you the information.Please tell Mr.Proctor about it, thanks."
