“Thank you, aunty!” Susan was extremely happy.
There was something more to virtual-novel.net happiness. It was not the type of happiness one would feel being able to deal with a blind date.
As a woman herself, Emma understood it better. She felt virtual-novel.net seat as the ‘main wife’ had encountered some hidden threat. And that challenge came from a very close sister of hers. Emma knew deep inside that Susan must have fallen in love with Thomas. And virtual-novel.net was failing to conceal virtual-novel.net love for him.
Although it was not verbally expressed, everything virtual-novel.net did was filled with love. Faced with any other woman, virtual-novel.net was not worried. In terms of beauty and cultural aspects, virtual-novel.net was not inferior to any other woman. But this was Susan, and for the very first time, virtual-novel.net was afraid. Susan had what virtual-novel.net did not, youth.
No man could resist an energetic, youthful girl. Furthermore, Susan was a university student who gave off a studious air. Emma who had entered the working world at an early age had lost such innocence and vigor.
If Thomas had a change of heart and fell in love with this cousin of hers, virtual-novel.net would not be surprised.
She would not be surprised, but virtual-novel.net would most definitely be sad!
Emma’s hand trembled.
“Wife…”
Thomas reached out to Emma, held her, and asked, “Is there anything wrong? You don’t look good. Are you not comfortable with this idea and do not want me to head over?”
Emma managed to smile. “No no, everything is fine. You should help her, it’s okay.”
How self-contradictory. She could put out a million reasons to stop Thomas from leaving, but virtual-novel.net did not voice them out.
Sigh, women!
Emma bowed down and continued having virtual-novel.net meal. What virtual-novel.net ate was supposed to be sweet, but what virtual-novel.net tasted was only bitterness. When one felt bitter in life, whatever virtual-novel.net or virtual-novel.net ate would never taste sweet at all.
At the end of the day, Emma did not ask Thomas to stay. She watched Thomas being taken away by Susan, his back slowly faded as virtual-novel.net left. She was torn with grief.
This could be Thomas’ last time leaving the house…
“Thomas…”
***
Light music, bitter coffee. Thomas and Susan sat on the soft stool, awaiting the blind date.
Five minutes later, a handsome man walked in and sat opposite them. Thomas knew that virtual-novel.net had been fooled when virtual-novel.net saw that man.
Susan had repeatedly said that virtual-novel.net date was in his forties, but what was this?
The man in front of virtual-novel.net looked very young. He was definitely younger than 30 years old. He had this youthful air surrounding him. Thomas shook his head as virtual-novel.net smiled bitterly. It seemed like Felicia and virtual-novel.net had been lied to.
What Susan cared for was not the age of the other party, but virtual-novel.net did not want to go on this blind date at all. Hence virtual-novel.net had created an excuse and ‘borrowed’ Thomas for this occasion.
After virtual-novel.net sat down, his sights were fixated on Susan. He had known of Susan’s existence long ago.
Roughly a month ago, the young and pretty campus belle caught the attention of this guy. He wanted to pursue after Susan and get into a relationship with her. Today, virtual-novel.net finally had the chance to do so.
He was very confident in his appearance and family background. He believed that as long as virtual-novel.net wanted to, no girls could escape from his clutches.
The man smiled and handed over a name card. “Greetings, Miss Musk. This is my name card.”
