Matthew, Veronica, and Skyler embarked on a journey to the picturesque countryside in search of
Shirley's house. As they stepped out of the car, their gaze was drawn to Shirley's parents, who were
cleaning the pigsty and engaged in a lively conversation.
With anticipation in her heart, Veronica emerged from the car, clutching a beautifully wrapped gift box.
However, to her dismay, Shirley was nowhere to be found in the yard. Shirley's father, immersed in his
work within the pigsty, raised his gaze upon seeing Veronica, his brows furrowing in an attempt to
recognize the woman before him. "Who are you?" he inquired.
Regretful for not introducing herself earlier, Veronica extended a warm smile and spoke. "I apologize
for not introducing myself earlier. My name is Veronica Murphy, Shirley's dearest friend. I came here
with the sole purpose of meeting you."
Pleased with the revelation, Shirley's father, affectionately known as Mr. Wilson, set aside his water
hose and broom, closing the iron gate of the pigsty as he stepped out. A hearty laugh escaped his lips.
"Hahaha, so it's the three of you. Shirley didn't return with you?"
Veronica subtly glanced at Skyler, silently signaling him to remain composed.
"Shirley is still at work. We happened to pass by and thought of paying you a visit," Veronica explained,
taking a step forward and presenting the gift in her hands. "These items were personally chosen by
Shirley for you."
Shirley's father, a man of simple and honest nature, beheld the valuable items and smiled with
contentment. "Ah, this little rascal spent a fortune on these gifts."
"Shirley is doing exceptionally well at her job and earning money. It's only fitting for her to shower you
with such thoughtful presents," Skyler interjected, offering further clarification.
Accepting the gifts graciously, Shirley's father chuckled heartily. "Hahaha, alright then. I shall treasure
the kindness of my child. Come, come, let's head inside."
Veronica politely shook her head, declining the offer. "There's no need, really. We have other matters to
attend to, so we must take our leave. However, I promise that when I have the opportunity, I'll bring
Shirley along to visit you."
"Very well, very well," Shirley's father acquiesced, his delight evident.
With a wave of her hand, Veronica bid her farewell. "Mr. Wilson, we shall take our leave now."
Matthew and Skyler echoed the gesture, expressing their own farewells to Shirley's father.
The trio then climbed back into the car and drove away, leaving Shirley's father standing at the
entrance of the yard. As they retreated, Skyler couldn't help but feel a pang of guilt, an urge to
compensate Shirley's father with a bank card. However, Veronica had cautioned against it, advising
him, "If you give it to Shirley's father, it may raise suspicions."
In order to shield the elderly man from unnecessary worry or speculation, Skyler reluctantly chose not
to present the bank card.
"If Shirley isn't at home, where could she be?" Skyler mused, leaning back in his seat, his voice tinged
with despondency. "Despite our investigations, this woman has become elusive, evading all forms of
surveillance. We can't seem to locate her."
"Skyler, fret not. Shirley won't be in any danger. She merely seeks solace and tranquility. Don't dwell on
it too much," Veronica comforted him, her voice brimming with reassurance.
Meanwhile, Matthew focused on maneuvering the car along the challenging muddy and bumpy road.
After a brief pause, he interjected, "Perhaps our primary concern should be not finding Shirley, but
rather, addressing your own situation."
Skyler, puzzled, sought clarification. "What do you mean?"
Matthew expounded, his words filled with insight. "Even if we locate Shirley, it would be futile if your
family doesn't accept her. Convincing your parents to embrace Shirley during this time should be our
priority."
His words struck a chord within Skyler's heart.
Indeed, finding Shirley would be futile if she continued to face opposition from his family.
"Yes, Skyler, Matthew is right," Veronica chimed in, wholeheartedly endorsing Matthew's perspective.
"Shirley won't be in any danger, and she possesses financial stability. You needn't worry excessively."
