“H-hello,” Mr. and Mrs. Sweeney quickly responded.
Mr. Sweeney invited Hadwin Stephenson to take a seat while Mrs. Sweeney pulled her daughter to the
side. “This is your
boyfriend? He’s not someone you hired to put up an act?”
Lina Sweeney rolled her eyes. “You can just think of him as an
actor I hired, then.”
Mrs. Sweeney was exasperated. “What a child! How can you
speak that way! Alright, go serve tea.” With that said, Mrs. Sweeney then plastered a friendly face and
walked over to Hadwin Stephenson.
Since Lina Sweeney was the designated waitress, she headed
to the kitchen to prepare some tea. When she stepped into the living room with a tray of tea, she saw
the three people chatting joyfully with each other.
“Tingxin, you said that you got to know Lina while abroad, so
have the both of you been keeping in touch all these years?”
“We didn’t. It’s after I returned to the country recently and
bumped into Lina on the streets that we kept in contact. To be honest, I’ve been searching for Lina all
these years.
Fortunately, I’ve found her.” Hadwin Stephenson smiled.
He shot a look at Lina Sweeney as he said that. From Mr. and Mrs. Sweeney’s view, that was a look
filled with love. However, for Lina Sweeney, it was a look filled with threats.
Mr. Sweeney smiled. “Both of you are truly fated. However, since you guys first saw each other
overseas, that would mean it was only within a span of a few days. How did you develop feelings for
Lina?”
Mr. Sweeney was curious to know. After all, his daughter
only went abroad for a few days. How did she manage to
make a man unable to forget about her for over three years
within such a short time? Furthermore, that man was an
attractive-looking man who could make girls swoon. It was not a problem for him to look for a girlfriend,
yet he had been looking for his daughter for the past three years. This made
Mr. Sweeney’s impression of Hadwin Stephenson increase
exponentially.
“Lina is a straightforward girl. I feel comfortable interacting
with her. There was once when I was drunk…” Hadwin
Stephenson said without any reservations. Lina Sweeney suddenly shuddered, and the cup of tea in
her hand spilled by
half.
“Ouch!” She growled softly and immediately put the cup down. The back of her hand began to turn red
from being
scalded by the hot tea.
Hadwin Stephenson frowned, speedily pulled Lina Sweeney up, made a dash for the kitchen, and
turned on the cold water tap to allow the cold water to wash over her scalded hand.
“Why can’t you even hold a teacup properly?” he said sulkily.
“Hey, don’t mention that I’ve spent the night with you in the hotel back then. My parents are
conservative people. If they find out about this, they’ll break my canine legs,” Lina Sweeney urgently
said.
“Canine legs?” He side-eyed her. “This is the first time I’m hearing someone describe themselves as a
canine.”
Lina Sweeney felt deflated. She admitted that she kind of used the wrong description.
“Whatever it is, just don’t breathe a word about it.” There was begging in her eyes.
He sealed his thin lips tightly, not saying a word.
“As long as you don’t mention it, I can…” She abruptly paused
mid-sentence.
‘What can I do? Buy him a meal? He doesn’t seem like someone who will be interested in a meal that I
can afford.
Shall I give him a gift as a reward? I don’t have the cheek to
say that out when the person I’m speaking to is richer than me by more than a thousand folds.
Whichever idea that came to her mind did not seem
appropriate at all. Thus, Lina Sweeney’s sentence was paused
for a long time. There was no sign of continuation.
“What can you do?” Hadwin Stephenson bent forward slightly to look at her.
She looked at that handsome face that was merely inches away from her and her heart could not stop
beating rapidly. Lina Sweeney could not help but complain inwardly. ‘Why does a man need such a
good-looking face? Especially his skin… It’s way better than mine. His skin was so good that she had
the urge to ask him what skincare products he used.
