Valda lifted her hand and held the otherâs face. âIâm serious. Just seeing you can lift my spirits. Sometimes, I even get mesmerized by you and think, âMy fiancé is so handsome, I really want to kiss him!â It feels like just looking at you a little longer can make a person feel so much more relaxed and comfortable!â
âOkay, then you should look at me more in the future. I have a lifetime to show you!â he said, leaning down, wanting to kiss her lips.
Her hands quickly pressed against his lips. This was the entrance to the rehabilitation room, and people were coming and going.
âIâ¦Iâll go take a shower and change my clothes first. Wait for me, okay?â she said, blushing.
Her shy and cute appearance made his heart flutter. He kissed the palm of her hand and said, âOkay, Iâll wait for you.â
Valdaâs face turned as red as blood, and it took her a while to finally enter the nearby bathroom.
Meanwhile, Brian waited outside.
Yes, he would wait for herâ¦no matter how long it took!
After leaving the rehabilitation center, Brian asked Valda while driving, âWhere do you want to eat tonight?â
âAnywhere is fine,â Valda replied.
âWellâ¦â he started to say, but his phone suddenly rang.
Brian picked up his phone and answered the call. After a moment, he furrowed his brow slightly and said, âOkay, Iâll see how things go later.â With that, he ended the call.
Valda asked suspiciously, âWhatâs wrong? Do you have something to do now?â
âItâs not just me, itâs us,â he said. âMy mom said that some relatives are having dinner at their place today, and one of them expressed interest in meeting you and asked if we could come over.â
Valda was taken aback, is this⦠about meeting relatives?
âIf you donât want to go, then donât go,â said Brian. âAnyway, if we donât meet today, weâll have plenty of opportunities to meet in the future.â
He doesnât want to force her, and besides, heâs not in a hurry to meet these relatives.
âThen go ahead,â said Valda. âAs you said, if you donât meet today, youâll meet in the future. Itâs better to meet sooner rather than later.â
âLetâs just meet briefly and have a simple meal, then we can go back to the villa early,â he said, knowing that she didnât enjoy this kind of socializing.
âMhmm.â She nodded.
Valda and Brian arrived at the Hart familyâs mansion and entered the living room where they saw many people of all ages and genders. They were likely all relatives of the Hart family.
All of their gazes are now fixed on Valda.
âBrian, is this your fiancée Miss Theller?â A middle-aged woman spoke up after a moment.
