"It's okay. Take your time. I can only pick you up after I go home."
"I know. Be careful." Rita said unhappily and buried herself in the quilt.
"Don't be so sad. I won't get lost."
"Ok."
After hanging up the phone, Rita thumped the pillow, annoyed. She had planned to pick him up early
and give him a surprise, but she overslept.
Last night, Rita had thought a lot about the beautiful experiences she had with Neil and what she had
experienced with Glenn. She admitted that Glenn was different in her heart, but her feelings for Glenn
were not as deep as that for Neil. She may only have a temporary interest in Glenn.
'Neil and I are getting married. I don't want to be disturbed by these things, ' she told herself.
After lying on the bed for a while, she jumped up, washed herself and changed clothes.
After texting her address to Neil, she sat on the sofa, waiting for him.
When she saw the caller ID on her phone, Rita curled her lips. It must be because her mother knew
about the matter that Neil was back. She usually didn't care about her.
"Hello."
"Rita, are you up yet?" As soon as she answered the phone, she heard her mother's loud voice. Rita
unconsciously took the phone a little further.
"Yes, keep your voice down! I'm almost deaf!" Rita complained.
"Well, I'm in good health."
"Yes, yes. You'll be fine as long as you're in good health."
"I almost forget the business. Didn't Neil come back today? Let him come to have dinner tonight, I
haven't seen him for a long time. He must be tall and handsome now. " Hearing her mother's words,
Rita could not help but pull a long face.
"How did you know that Neil come back today?" 'I haven't told Mom about it. How did she know?'
"It's Neil who told me this. He calls me every week, unlike you. You always say that you're busy, don't
you even have time to call me?"
"Who told me not to bother her every day? And now she's blaming all the things on me?"
"I..."
"Okay, I'm done talking with you. Let me ask him first. It's uncertain. He might go back to his home. "
"That's good. You should pay more attention to your future mother-in-law, so that you can get along
well with her in the future."
"Un, mom, what are you talking about? It's still too early to talk about it."
"It's not too early. You were engaged a few years ago. When Neil called me, he also said that he was
going to marry you. You can get married as soon as possible so that I can also make my wish come
true. "
Rita's mother had been worried about Rita. Neil had been abroad for many years and he had seen a lot
of things, but her daughter still acted like a child. She had been worried that Neil would fall in love with
other women. Nowadays, a lot of men were divorced after they got married, let alone the fact that they
were just engaged.
But to her surprise, she received a call from Neil, saying that he wanted to hold the wedding as soon as
possible. Of course, she would give her supports, so she said that she had no objections.
"You wish I could get married as soon as possible, mom."
"Hey, you..."
"All right, all right. I won't talk to you anymore, because Neil is coming here. I'll call you later. "Rita hung
up the phone before her mother could nag her.
As soon as Rita put down her phone, it rang again. She thought that her mother called back, so she
answered the phone without checking who was calling.
"I'm sorry, boss. I shouldn't have hung up. I still have something to do. Don't nag me."
Rita's words surprised Glenn and he didn't know what to say.
"Mom, are you listening?" Seeing no response from the other end of the line, Rita called again.
"I didn't know that I have a daughter."
Glenn teased her on purpose. Hearing that, Rita was astonished. Actually it was not from her mother.
Did she say those words to Glenn? In an instant, Rita wanted to find a hole in the ground to hide.
"What's up?"
"Oh, nothing. Today is weekend, so I want to take you out for fun. But I don't know if you have any
plan."
"I have something to deal with today, so I can't go with you. You can go with your friend."
"Well, I have no choice."
"I'm sorry."
After hanging up the phone, Glenn sat in the car and looked at his cell phone. He felt frustrated
because it was the first time that he had been rejected.
As soon as Rita hung up the phone, she received a text message from Neil. "I'm downstairs now.
Come down quickly."
So Rita went downstairs with the things in her hand. As soon as she walked out of the building, she
saw Neil leaning against his car.
"Rita." He said as he walked towards Rita.
Rita was stunned for a moment when she saw his face. Although she had seen some of his photos and
knew about his changes, she was still surprised by the man in front of her. She didn't expect that he
would become so mature in the past few years.
"What's wrong? Did I do anything wrong? Why are you staring at me? " He touched her head with
affection, trying to wake her up.
"Nothing? Let's go. I have booked a table and take you to eat something delicious. "
Neil took the bags from Rita, and she held his arm naturally. She just couldn't get rid of this old habit.
However, all these actions upset the man in the car not far away. He clenched their phones.
Although Glenn looked calm on the surface, he was actually very excited in his heart. In fact, Glenn
had been waiting outside the building of Rita's home for a long time and he called her. It didn't matter
that he was rejected. After all, he didn't say it in advance. But when he saw her staying so close with
another man, he was jealous. However, he had no position for his jealousy.
He recalled what Wilson had told him last time. He must be Rita's fiancé. Hum, nothing special. He was
just a overseas returnee who came from a rich family.
