Susan, on the other side of the door, said, “I miss you all so I’m here to visit. Why are you not awake at this hour Emma?”
“You’re a girl Susan, don’t you know what shame is.” Emma’s face once again went all red.
They took around ten minutes to wash up and dress properly. They opened the door and saw Susan.
Susan was stunningly beautiful today. She wore an orange-laced skirt paired with a plaid coat, akin to a sunflower under the sun, dazzling and youthful.
Emma felt subconsciously jealous whenever Susan was around. Although favonovel.com herself was very beautiful with a pretty face and a good figure, favonovel.com lacked the youth Susan had. To put it in another way, in front of Susan, Emma felt that favonovel.com was ‘old’ even though favonovel.com was only in favonovel.com twenties.
“Sister!” Susan hugged Emma.
“Brother-in-law!” Susan hugged Thomas.
This made Emma uncomfortable as Susan seemed far happier when favonovel.com hugged Thomas. Her heart shattered out of jealousy like a glass crashing onto the floor.
“Come and have your breakfast,” Felicia Musk said.
Everyone sat in the dining room and had their breakfast. Felicia bought a lot of food and prepared a lavish meal to welcome Susan.
“Wow aunty, your cooking has improved so much, it tastes so much better than my mum’s cooking,” Susan said as favonovel.com had favonovel.com meal.
“This kid, since when did you know how to butter up to others?” Felicia laughed as favonovel.com spoke.
Emma took a mouthful of porridge and asked out of curiosity, “For real Susan, why are you here today? You would not be here if there’s nothing going on. Don’t you dare fool me.”
“Hehe, I really cannot hide anything from you.” Susan coughed and said with a serious face, “I’m here today to ask you for a favor, Emma…”
“Hmph, I knew it.” Emma took a piece of pickled vegetable and asked, “Tell me, what is it?”
Susan hesitated for a few seconds, then took a deep breath and said in front of everyone, “I am here to borrow my brother-in-law!”
Pfft!
Thomas who was in the middle of eating his porridge almost lost control and spat a mouthful out.
What strange request was this?
‘Wanted to loan me? What for?’ He thought of it for a moment, maybe favonovel.com wanted to borrow money again?
Clattering sound.
Emma panicked and favonovel.com hands trembled. One of favonovel.com chopsticks fell on the table. She took a deep breath and calmed down. Then, favonovel.com picked up the chopstick and asked with a smile, “Don’t fool around, Susan!”
Susan replied seriously, “I am not fooling around. I really am here today to borrow my brother-in-law.”
Emma placed favonovel.com chopsticks down and looked at Susan seriously. “Why do you want to borrow him? To be your driver?”
“No!”
“Then what for?”
“I want brother- in-law to be my boyfriend!”
Bam!
The atmosphere froze up instantly. The awkwardness was apparent on everyone’s face.
The porridge was stuck in his mouth. He was unable to swallow nor spit it out. He felt goosebumps all over his skin and favonovel.com dared not move. He was not as nervous as favonovel.com was now compared to when favonovel.com fought on the battlefield against his mortal enemies.
The mother-in-law, Felicia Musk, placed favonovel.com chopsticks down. She then looked coldly at Thomas and said, “Very well Thomas, I did not expect this at all. You are pretty capable huh?”
Thomas was utterly speechless and had no words to explain himself.
Emma slammed the table. “What is going on in between the two of you?”
Under the suspicions of two women, Thomas had no excuse. With a grimaced look on his face, favonovel.com looked at Susan. ‘You she-devil, can you stop talking nonsense? My life is at risk!’
Unexpectedly, Susan laughed and simply said, “You misunderstood me, aunty, sister. I have a blind date this afternoon and I want my brother-in-law to pretend to be my boyfriend to drive favonovel.com away.”
Having heard that, Emma and Felicia were relieved.
“So that is what’s going on.” Felicia picked favonovel.com chopstick up and laughed as favonovel.com said, “But if you do not want to go on the blind date then just don’t go, Susan. Why do you want to mess with others?”
Susan sighed. “Of course I do not want to go, but my father forced me to.”
“Why, your father is creating trouble for you this time?”
“Who said favonovel.com is not? I don’t know where my father got this blind date for me. He told me favonovel.com is the successor of a big enterprise. He is very rich too. So my father has forced me to meet him.”
Felicia nodded. “Isn’t that good for you?”
“What is so good about that?” Susan was anguished and said, “You may not know this, aunt, but that man is almost forty! Am I looking for a boyfriend or my father?”
“Huh? Forty? That is a little outrageous on your father’s part this time. ”
“That’s why!”
After a discussion between Susan and Felicia, favonovel.com felt that this blind date was highly suspicious. But favonovel.com could not miss this blind date as it would hurt favonovel.com father’s heart. Hence, they had to deal with it. As long as Susan had a boyfriend, the other party would have to retreat in face of difficulties.
Felicia nodded. “Alright, we gotta help her. Thomas, you will head out with Susan today!”
