Dorothy and Kenneth walked up to the door of ward V1 together. The two bodyguards on either side
looked at them, hesitating, seemingly tom about whether or not to stop them.
After all, Kenneth was a fresh face.
âThis is my boyfriendâ Dorothy said, knowing her mother could hear from inside, so she had to say it
out loud.
Kenneth, standing to the side, couldnât help but smirk, turning his body to whisper to her, âYou donât
sound like youâre introducing your boyfriend at all. Itâs more like weâre about to sit down and negotiate a
contract or something.â
She thought about what she had just said, and then it hit her and she laughed at her own stupidity.
So, the first thing Bella saw when she looked at them was them smiling at each other.
âMom!â
Seeing her mother lying on the hospital bed with a stern face, Dorothy quickly stopped laughing and
walked over standing by the bed, trying to put as much distance as possible betweer Kenneth and her
mother.
Because she was really afraid that Hella would start ranting, get all worked up, and actually slap him!
âHello, Iâm sorry, Ive been really busy with work recently and havenât been able to come and see you.
Itâs my fault,â Kenneth said.
He was playing his boyfriend role very well His handsame face was full of apology and fear, looking
genuinely nervous and lost, like meeting his parir nâs parents for the first time.
But Bella was not easily fooled
She scanned them both from head to toe, finally locking her gaze on Kennethâs face. You two really
registered your main ageâ
âUm. He lowered his head, sounding sincere, âA though I know itâs wrong to do so, I really do love
Dorothy and want to spend my life with her!
âAnd what about you?â Bella suddenly turned to her daughter.
Dorothy was taken aback, still not as natural as Kenneth, T⦠Iâm definitely sincere too. Otherwise, I
wouldnât have impulsively gotten the mariage licenseâ
âWhat do your parents think of my daughter? They surely donât know about this, do they?â
âThey know Kenneth quickly said, âAnd they really like her. They said Iâm lucky to have married such a
beautiful girl.â
âHuh.â Bella suddenly laughed coldly. âIf thatâs the case, why didnât they come today?â
Dorothy, knowing her mother was about to start giving them a hard time, quickly interjected, âMom!
Wasnât it agreed that I would just bring him here myself today?â
âBut if they really accept you, why would they just let him come alone? Who gets their daughter
manied, has the license already, and hasnât even met the inâlaws yet? No one would believe it if you
told them?
Dorothy knew her mother had already thought up a series of tests waiting for her here!
It was not that easy to bluff her way through.
Just as the situation was about to enter an extraordinarily awkward stage, suddenly, Kenneth said in a
surprised tone, âYou mean, youâre willing to meet my parents?â
Not expecting him to say that, Bella raised an eyebrow at him.
They knew I was coming today and mentioned several times that they wanted to come too. They
thought it would show our familyâs sincerity and their approval of Dorothy as their daughterâinâlaw! But
Dorothy told me earlier that you prefer quiet and are afraid of being disturbed, so I didnât let them
come.â
Dorothy silently gave Kenneth a thumbsâup in her heart thinking that as a teacher he was quick on his
feel
But the next second, Hella spoke up directly. âIf thatâs really the case, then could you please ask them
to come over now? Otherwise, your parents might think Iâm a difficult person in get along with!â
That was very abrupt.
âMom! Donât you dare.
âWell, since you donât mind, Iâll call them now Iâm sure my parents
hrilled to come and meet you?â
