Paul and Jenny looked at each other. Then Paul asked, "Melissa, is this your boyfriend? Is it that man
who once helped our family? " Paul's voice was inexplicably cold.
Since the moment Colin entered the house, Paul had regarded him as a bad person. He was beautiful,
but he had a different temperament from other people. He must not be an ordinary person. Judging
from his behavior and eyes, he should be a high-ranking, unruly person. How could his daughter be
with such a person? Even if they were together, Melissa might not be able to tame him. She would
suffer if they stayed together. Besides, the man looked like a bully, how could he take good care of his
daughter? At least, the moment he stepped into the house, Paul felt that such a man did not care much
about his daughter! All in all, Paul couldn't understand why his daughter would be with such a man.
Hearing the words of Paul, Jenny looked at Melissa and Colin with great curiosity, waiting for them to
speak.
Melissa was totally shocked by Colin's confession, not knowing what to say. Well…… Well…… After a
long while, she finally nodded and admitted, "Well…… Yes, he is my boyfriend... " Then she lowered
her head and suddenly didn't know how to explain it.
"Now that you have a boyfriend, don't you want to introduce him to us?" Jenny smiled and tried to be
polite with them. Although she felt there was something wrong between her daughter and this man, but
since they all admitted, she should be polite to them as elders.
Melissa looked up at her mother and said, "He is ……" He is... "
"Uncle Paul and aunt Jenny, I'm Colin. I work in the entertainment circle and got to know her because
of shooting." Colin introduced himself with smile on his face. Melissa can't help but have a glance at
Colin. He looked normal, not as arrogant and unruly as usual, but like an ordinary person greeting an
elder. Seeing Colin's performance, Melissa couldn't believe it. Perhaps this was the legendary wolf in
sheep's clothing and Colin was really good at acting!
Jenny pointed at him and said, "Are you an actor?"
Colin said, "No, I just do some investment business in the entertainment industry."
"What's deal? And are you an investor? " Paul asked coldly and sharply.
Colin's reply was still calm, "Yes, I am."
Hearing this, Paul twitched the corners of his mouth. Nobody knew what he was thinking, but he didn't
continue to ask. On the other side, Melissa had been very nervous the whole time. When she saw her
father's cold eyes looking at her, she felt a pang in her heart. She felt that her father's eyes were too
sharp. He seemed to have noticed something, so she quickly lowered her head.
Jenny suddenly smiled and said, "Since you are a business man, Mr. Ling should be too busy to come
here. Come in and have a seat. Our lunch is almost ready!" Jenny treated him nicely and invited him in.
Colin said with a smile, "Aunt Jenny can call me Colin."
They went into the room. Only Melissa and Paul were still standing in the living room. Paul cast a few
glances at her quietly and then pushed the wheelchair into the room without saying anything.
From the moment she saw the deep look in her father's eyes, Melissa found that there was something
wrong. She guessed that her father who was acute might have known something. This made her more
uneasy. She clenched her fists and lowered her head. She didn't know what to say and silently followed
them into the dining room.
Melissa felt uneasy in that meal. Everyone held a sinister smile as Colin stayed by her side. She feared
that her parents might find out what had happened between them and her mother, in particular, had
long heard about Colin. Then it was really a tempting dinner. Nobody knew what was on their minds?
All in all, Melissa had a guilty conscience. She ate slowly with her head down and dared not speak.
She touched Colin's feet as he told her stories, signaling him not to talk too much.
But Colin didn't listen to her at all. He kept talking with her parents, in particular with her father. Her
father asked Colin a lot about his work and Colin simply told him simple things. Jenny also asked Colin
many things about his family, such as his relatives and so on. But what made Melissa surprised was
that Colin who had kept a secret about his family unexpectedly told her mother anything about it. He
said that his aunt Avril committed suicide after she was 22 years old and his younger uncle left the city.
From then on, his uncle would never come to G City.
Jenny asked, "Why hasn't your uncle returned to G City since your aunt died?"
Hearing this, Melissa picked up some food with chopsticks. Suddenly, her hand shook and the food
was lost. Everyone looked at her and she was very embarrassed. She lowered her head and
apologized, "Sorry, I'm sorry." But no matter how she pretended to be calm, she was really scared.
Because it was a painful topic in Colin's heart and it was a taboo subject. No one could ask about it.
Anyone who asked about it would definitely want to die. She once asked him when she didn't know it.
He taught her to remember it deeply. She would never dare to mention the death of Avril in front of him.
She had no idea how Colin would react to it.
Melissa turned to Colin. As was expected, he lowered his head as if he was going to destroy the world.
Melissa was afraid that he lost his temper. But to her surprise, Colin smiled lightly, though others could
tell that he concealed his feelings. So far, nothing would happen. He smiled and said, "Nothing. It's just
a family matter. When they quarreled with each other, my uncle left."
Seeing Colin's expression, Jenny knew that these things were something that other people didn't want
to show, so she nodded and didn't ask any more.
Seeing this, Melissa's heart skipped a beat. She breathed a sigh of relief. Paul saw everything and said
nothing, just staring at them.
Hearing that, Colin picked up some food for her, looking very gentle and sweet. "Hey, are you all right?
Come and have some food! You always talk about the dishes at home. Why don't you eat after you
come back? "
Colin's action made Melissa extremely flattered. But the man had a bland smile on his face, which
scared her. She would rather see him treat her cruelly as usual than smile at her. His action made her
feel abnormal and creepy.
Colin caught a glimpse of her face and he was full of scheme. Then he asked Jenny, "Aunt, have you
prepared the dark plum soup? Melissa usually eat a bowl of plum syrup with you at dinner, or she'll feel
very uncomfortable every day! "
Jenny smiled with surprise, "You know that. Don't worry. I have prepared the hot pot for her and her
father. Alas, Melissa has this habit from her father, it hasn't changed until now. "
On hearing this, Colin smiled, "Of course I remember my girlfriend's favorite. She is not only fond of
soup after dinner, but also has an abnormal taste. She doesn't eat garlic, pepper and the things that
are too salty. On the contrary, she loves sweet food!"
Jenny was even happier when she heard this. She covered her mouth with her hand and laughed, "It
turns out that Colin knows everything. She has made you worry a lot. I feel so sorry for you!"
The atmosphere was harmonious again. However, Melissa bowed her head silently and ate with
thinking that, "Colin, you are a liar" It's bad for you to pretend to treat me well. But what do you want to
do by pretending like this?
