6:00 PM.
After work Sally is to find Jason, she remembered that Jason promised her to go to her house for dinner tonight, she was afraid that this guy would forget about it, so as soon as he got off work, he immediately contacted Jason.
After contacting Jason, the two made an appointment to meet in the underground garage.
Jason went down to the underground garage first, and a moment later, the elevator door opened and Sally came out of the elevator, with high heels, black stockings, and a wrap-around wool coat, a total goddess.
“I was thinking about what to buy for your house.” Jason said.
Sally smiled sweetly and said, “We have everything at home, so we don’t need to buy anything.”
“That’s true, but how can I go there empty-handed?” Jason said. Jason opened his mouth and said, “Let’s go buy some gifts or something, the first time we go to the house empty-handed in case your parents take me for a white-eyed wolf?”
“Not at all.” Sally smiled, and said, “Then just go buy something random, and you don’t have to seem too polite or anything.”
Immediately, Sally got into Jason’s bulletproof Paramount Marauder SUV.
Rumble!
Jason started the car and the sound of a roaring beast-like engine came as the Marauder pulled out of the underground garage.
…
The old Herthum Family house.
In the evening, around 7:30 pm, a tough-looking bulletproof SUV arrived and stopped in front of the Herthum Family’s old house.
The door opened and Jason stepped out of the car. He went around and opened the passenger side door to get Sally out of the car as well.
Sally had a look of delight on her face as she walked over and opened the door to the Herthum Family’s old house.
Jason had also come over with his hands carrying some of the gifts he had bought.
“Dad, Mom, I’m home.”
Sally shouted toward the house.
In the main hall a middle-aged man with a straight face and elegant temperament came out, he was already over half a hundred years old, still looks like he would appear to be very young, in good spirits, his eyes have a god, he has a majestic aura of a long time in the top position, his face is just right, angular, appearing not angry and powerful.
“Sally, you’re back … Didn’t you say you brought your friends back? How come you’re the only one?”
The middle-aged man smiled as he walked toward the front.
He is Sally’s father Ralph Herthum, is also the honorary chairman of the Herthum Group, but now he is retired, by Sally to lead the development of the Herthum Group, but also only in the company some very important decisions make Sally are difficult to choose when he will step in.
As soon as Ralph Herthum spoke, he saw Jason walk in from behind, carrying gift boxes of all sizes in both hands.
“Dad, this is Jason. Previously, I have been trying to get him to come to dinner inside the house. It wasn’t until tonight that we had the right opportunity.” Sally said with a smile.
“So you are Jason!”
Ralph Herthum opened his mouth, his eyes locked on Jason.
Jason smiled openly as he met Ralph Herthum’s gaze and said, “Yes, I’m Jason. meet Uncle Herthum.”
Ralph Herthum looked at Jason, he has been through the business world, has seen the world extremely wide, reading people think is also very accurate.
At this time Jason gave him the impression of an iron-boned man like himself with a masculine and hard aura, a hard face, a deep and honest gaze, looking at him without the slightest flinch of cowardice in his gaze, confident with a kind of respect for elders.
With this first impression alone, Ralph Herthum felt satisfied.
“Sally, this is the Jason you always mention, right?”
At this time, a gentle voice sounded, it is to see a beautiful and gentle woman walking towards the front, she is also half a hundred years old, but still looks young, elegant demeanor, giving a gentle and virtuous feeling.
“Mom!” Sally saw the woman and a smile appeared on her face as she walked over and took the woman’s arm and said, “Yes, he’s Jason. jason, this is my mom.”
Jason immediately looked at the woman and said with a smile, “Meet Mary Herthum. after seeing Mary Herthum, I finally understand why Sally looks so beautiful. mary Herthum is also so young, if not introduced by Sally herself, I thought you were a pair of good sisters. ”
Jason opened his mouth without blushing, and on the way over, Sally had also introduced her parents to her, as he knew that Sally’s father was named Ralph Herthum and her mother was named Mary Herthum.
Once Mary Herthum heard Jason’s words, the face that resembled Sally’s by five or six points had already burst into laughter.
As long as women, no matter what age they are, they will like to hear others praise them for being young and beautiful.
Mary Herthum is not exempt from this, she said with a smile, “Jason, you are exaggerating, you Mary Herthum is old, it can still be compared with you young people ah? Look at you kids, you came to the house, why buy so many things over? I won’t make an exception. Come on, go inside and sit down, we’re waiting for you to come back and eat together.”
Jason followed Sally towards the front and walked inside the main hall.
Mary Herthum had already prepared a nice meal when she found out that Sally was bringing Jason back for dinner, and when everyone arrived, they all sat down at the table.
“Uncle Herthum, let me have a drink with you.” Jason said with a smile.
“Okay, two drinks then.” Ralph Herthum nodded.
Jason picked up a bottle of wine from the table, opened it and poured it into his and Ralph Herthum’s glasses.
After three rounds of wine, the atmosphere also began to liven up.
Ralph Herthum asked, “The last time there was a terrorist attack on the Herthum Group, you stepped up and defused the crisis, right?”
Jason smiled lightly and said, “This is what I should do. As a member of the Herthum Group, when I encountered such a critical situation, I would of course step in to defuse it if I was able to, to avoid causing more casualty situations.”
Ralph Herthum took a deep breath and said sincerely, “Thank you, on behalf of the entire Herthum Group. Without your help, thousands of Herthum Group employees, including Sally, would have been in danger. You saved the Herthum Group and countless lives.”
Jason hurriedly said, “Uncle Herthum, that would be too polite and insensitive. In a situation like that, I would have done it even if I didn’t work for the Herthum Group. Because I want to be worthy of the uniform I once wore.”
“Jason you were in the Army?” Ralph Herthum asked.
Jason nodded and said, “I served in the Army. Now it’s kind of out of the military.”
“So, no wonder you possess such a good body and are able to fight those terrorists. Terrorists in combat.” Ralph Herthum had a smile on his face, and then said, “You are very good like this, with responsibility and courage.”
“Dad, you don’t know anything. Actually Jason has saved my life several times …” Sally couldn’t help but speak up.
At these words, Mary Herthum’s face tensed up for a moment, and she looked at Sally with concern and asked, “Sally, what other dangerous things have you encountered? How come I didn’t hear you mention it to us?”
Jason saw this and quickly said, “Mary Herthum, don’t worry, I am here Sally will not be in any danger. It’s just a few small problems, you see Sally is not good now?”
Sally passed a grateful look towards Jason, she had previously encountered some danger, let’s say being hijacked by Mogi on South Lookout Mountain that time she did not mention it to her parents, so that they would not worry.
Just now, she was in a hurry and said something that immediately drew her mother’s worried and anxious intention.
