“Auntie, I am sorry for my offensive behavior. But I missed Nancy and the baby so much; this is the reason why I came here without an invitation.” Lawrence Ellis’s words scare Mrs. Moore that she widens her eyes.
“What? Baby?” As Mrs. Moore is speaking, she shifts her vision on the belly of Nancy Moore.
Nancy Moore hurriedly covers her belly by the light of nature. And Mrs. Moore immediately gets what’s going on; she shouts loudly, “William, come, come quickly!”
When hearing her shouts, Mr. Moore ponders that there must be a big trouble, so he hurriedly comes over, asking, “Joanna, what’s the matter? What happened?”
When he sees the man who suddenly showed up in his daughter’s bedroom, his confused expression suddenly changes. He says in surprise, “Hey, why are you here? When did you come? You should have informed me so that I can prepare dinner to treat you!”
As Mr. Moore is speaking, he puts his hand on Lawrence Ellis’s shoulder and leads him to the living room. Obviously, he has totally ignored these slack-jawed women.
Nancy Moore is so astonished. When did her dad get so acquainted with Lawrence Ellis?
They hurriedly follow Mr. Moore and finds that Mr. Moore is really fond of Lawrence Ellis. He shares his favorite chessboard with him!
Tammy Moore walks over and nudges Nancy Moore, saying, “Elder sister, I like this hunk, and even dad likes him too. You can consider him.”
Nancy Moore complains in heart, “These guys don’t know the real identity of Lawrence Ellis. They are just attracted by his damn charming and hypocritical appearance. If they know that Lawrence is the heir of the Ellis Group, they will wet their pants in terror.”
“Lawrence, how’s your relationship with Nancy?” Mr. Moore is wild with joy and almost drool. It seems that he has recognized Lawrence Ellis as his son-in-law-to-be.
“Dad, there is a misunderstanding. Lawrence is the son of my superior. He came to our home to talk about some business things since I have resigned from the company. We are not even friends.” Nancy Moore is really worried. If she allows Lawrence Ellis to stay with her dad for a more second, her dad would probably decide her marriage with Lawrence Ellis.
Seeing that her father has not come to his own sense, Nancy Moore holds Lawrence Ellis’s hand and walks towards outside, saying, “Dad, I and Lawrence need to go out to deal with something, you can play cheese with Tammy, bye!”
“See you next time, Mr. Moore.” Seeing the bright smile on the face of Lawrence Ellis, Nancy Moore gets so angry. She exerts more strength to drag Lawrence Ellis towards outside. He wants to meet her dad next time?
No way. There will be no next time anymore, exactly, for lifetime.
Mrs. Moore doesn’t follow them, so Nancy Moore hurriedly pushes the button to close the elevator door, and casts off his hand.
Lawrence Ellis is totally irritated. He suddenly grasps her hand and presses her against the elevator, asking, “So you hate me, even to this degree? You even feel it disgusting by holding my hand?”
“You’re right, I hate you. So, Mr. Ellis, please, don’t disturb my life. Just mind our own business!” Nancy Moore is fearless in his words and raises her head, replying.
The two fix eyes on each other for ten more seconds until the elevator is opened.
Lawrence Ellis presses the button to close it again, and then asks, “Why?”
“Because it is just a mistake that I was drunk and I met you. But now I am sober, and I will never make such mistake again.” Nancy Moore is clear, than anyone, that enduring love has a requisite – the two lovers are from matched families.
There’s a yawning gap between she and Lawrence. Although he may not care about their age gap, their identities are still unmatched.
“All right, then don’t regret in the future!” Lawrence Ellis feels that he has shown his utmost endurance. But Nancy Moore, this woman, really couldn’t tell good from bad, and just challenged his bottom line again and again.
“Ting.” The elevator is opened and Lawrence Ellis steps out with anger.
Watching at his leaving back, Nancy Moore feels sad and suffocative for a moment. Why does she has such feelings?
He finally left, she should feel delighted, extremely delighted!
