"I'll go home first. Don't forget it.”
After work, Payton received a WeChat message from Juliet.
After staring at the words on the screen for a long time, Payton turned off the computer and stood up.
He picked up his suit and put it on. Then, he grabbed the car keys on the table and walked out with
steady steps.
He had been to the Elton Villa several times before, but always parked his car outside. This was the
first time he drove his car to the courtyard.
Juliet, who was standing at the door, came up to him after he parked. While raising her hand to
straighten out his tie, she lowered her voice and said, "We might have to show some intimacy later.
Don't screw it up."
She was so close that he could smell her faint sweet scent.
He could clearly see her slightly trembling eyes, her high nose, and her small mouth opening and
closing as she spoke.
Somehow he felt a little hot. He subconsciously raised his hand to loosen the tie, but accidentally
touched her hand.
Juliet looked up at him, her beautiful eyes rippling with a resplendent halo, mixed with a trace of doubt.
He licked his dry lips and smiled awkwardly, "It's a little tight."
Juliet frowned, "Tight? I'll loosen it a bit."
She loosened the tie and then asked, "What about now? Is it still tight?"
Payton shook his head, "No."
At this moment, he caught a glimpse of someone walking out of the villa. Before he could tell who it
was, he stretched and held her in his arms.
In an instant, all she could smell was his cold scent, which filled her entire nose. She was a little
distracted.
She heard him ask in his deep voice, "Is that your father?”
Her father?
Juliet frowned slightly and looked along his lines of sight. As expected, her father had come out. He
was looking at them by the door.
So that was why he suddenly hugged her.
Juliet was a little disappointed. Then she laughed at herself. What was she expecting of him?
"Yes, that's my dad. Let's go over now."
She retreated from his embrace and intimately held his arm. She tilted her head to smile at him, "Let's
go."
When he saw the smile brightening her pretty face, he flipped. It was an indescribable feeling from
deep in his heart.
He followed her steps, his deep gaze fastened on her.
“Dad.”
It wasn't until he heard her crisp and elegant voice that he came to his sense. He blinked his eyes and
shifted his gaze to the middle-aged man standing by the door.
Darkness fell early in autumn. With the light above his head, Payton met Mr. Elton's gaze calmly.
Although Mr. Elton was over fifty years old, he was in good shape. His was tall and straight, his face
was elegant and indifferent, his mouth was tightly closed, and his eyes shone with a sharp and cold
light.
But compared to his own father, Mr. Elton was much more amiable.
Payton smiled. "Nice to see meet you, Mr. Elton. I'm Payton Lu, Juliet's boyfriend."
Mr. Elton looked at him for a while. Then he glanced at Juliet and said in a low voice, "Come on in."
Mr. Elton turned around and walked into the villa.
Payton tilted his head and chuckled, "Your father doesn't seem to like me."
Juliet rolled her eyes at him and said, "This is the first time you meet him. How could you know that my
dad doesn't like you? You read his mind?"
Payton raised his eyebrows and said seriously, "I'm not able to read his mind. But I'm a man too. It's
easy for a man to tell whether another guy likes him or not. Obviously, he doesn't like me."
He was so serious that Juliet almost believed him.
Juliet was amused, "Don't worry, my father will like you. Come on, let's get in. Don't keep my parents
waiting."
Then she held his arm and was about to go in.
"Wait a moment." Payton stopped her.
"What?" Juliet turned around.
He smiled and gently pulled down her hand that was holding his arm.
Juliet frowned, thinking that he didn't like her holding him.
He took her hand and smiled, "Now we are boyfriend and girlfriend.”
With the warmth in his hand, Juliet felt that her heart was instantly filled up. She couldn't help smiling
as if her happiness was about to spill.
She blinked her moist eyes and said delightedly, "Come on, let's go."
They walked into the house hand in hand.
"What?" Yayoi put the cup on the table and sat on the sofa. In surprise, she stared at Rosiley who was
sitting opposite her.
Rosiley picked up her cup and drank a mouthful of water before she slowly said, "I said Juliet brought
Payton to see her parents."
"Why?" In Yayoi's impression, Juliet and Payton hadn't got along since the day they met. They always
quarreled when they saw each other. Why
did Juliet suddenly take Payton to her parents?
It happened so fast that she couldn't even react.
Rosiley pondered for a moment and then said, "Mr. Elton asked Juliet to go on a blind date. To avoid
that, she found someone to pretend to be her boyfriend."
Yayoi frowned, "Don't tell me that's Payton."
Rosiley smiled.
"Oh my god.” Yayoi cried out in surprise and shook her head in disbelief, "I didn’t expect this from
Juliet."
Rosiley put the cup back on the table and nodded, "That's true.”
"Why did Payton agree?” Yayoi was puzzled.
"He took a fancy to her."
Maddox just walked out of the room. He heard her question and answered.
Rosiley tilted her head and saw that he had taken off his suit and put on some casual clothes. She
frowned, "Maddox, are you living here now?"
Maddox nodded, "Yes, what's wrong?”
"Nothing. I just feel that it's a little inappropriate.” Rosiley looked worried.
Since Yayoi's parents hadn't solved the problems, it was understandable that he wanted to stay with
Yayoi. However, if the neighbors saw him live here, they might judge Yayoi.
Maddox couldn't help laughing, "Rosiley, you are too slow. I've lived here for a few days. And now you
told me that it's inappropriate?"
Rosiley shrugged her shoulders and said, "Alright, I'm a little slow.’
"But I still feel it inappropriate. After all, you're not married yet. You're just dating. And you have been
living together. What if..."
"If I break up with Yayoi, it might damage her reputation, right?"
Maddox took her words interrupted her and looked at her with a gentle smile.
Rosiley raised her eyebrows and asked, "Am I wrong?”
Isn't this worrying worthy of her worry?
