parents could witness this, they would feel relieved, right? It was just that she had embarrassed them.

randomly walked into a tea shop, ordered a cup of milk tea in boredom, and waited for Roger to finish
his class.
She checked on her savings and thought about her next career plan. She had considered what Roger

After ordering her drink, she sat down in a corner. When the man paying at the cashier in front of her
heard her voice, he turned and looked at her instinctively. When their eyes met, she was surprised. “Mr.
Hall?” She didn’t expect to bump into him in such a small tea shop.
And neither did he.
He was a little surprised but quickly returned to his usual polite self. Smiling, he nodded at her. “What a

Bryce nodded. When he saw her leave, he was relieved and sat in front of his father. Justin was

Bryce was startled and sat up straight. He shook his head, expressions solemn.“I don’t dislike her.”
“Then why were you so worked up just now?”
“It’s just that…”
Not knowing how to explain, he studied his father’s face carefully. After a while, he said,” Father, will

Justin was startled.
He looked at his son’s cautious look and felt uneasy. “Just say it. What is it that you can’t tell
