“You can’t have such thoughts! You’re smart and beautiful. You will definitely find a good husband!” Tilda’s mother paused and smiled, “By the way… your father’s colleague’s son has returned from abroad. I saw a photo of him a few days ago. He’s handsome and energetic. Would you like to take a look?”
Tilda looked at her mother suspiciously. “Is this the ultimate goal, Mom? You want me to go on a blind date?”
“Not really! It depends on you. If you don’t want to go, then don’t! I just thought it wouldn’t hurt to take a look. If there’s no chemistry, you can come back. But if there is, then date him!”
“Is he good-looking?”
“Yes.”
Tilda pondered for a moment, “Do you have a photo?”
“Yes!” Her mother immediately stood up. “I’ll get it from your father. Wait for me.”
Tilda responded, “Alright.”
She realized that she hadn’t dated anyone for years. She didn’t want to end up being an old maid! If there was someone who was kind-hearted, had a good personality and temper, and was decent in all aspects, she was willing to give it a try!
Unlike Rosalind who had Ulric in her heart all these years, Tilda had no one and didn’t love anyone. She was just too lazy to socialize and busy with taking care of Rosalind’s children and work. She didn’t have the time for men.
Speaking of which, she decided she wanted to go on a blind date, and Johnny had a part to play in that! In the past, Tilda didn’t even know what kind of man she was looking for, and even now, she wasn’t quite sure. But one thing was clear-she absolutely wouldn’t choose a man like Johnny!
The fact that he would wait for her downstairs just to sleep with her was truly absurd.
Was Mr. Chow that desperate for women?
…
Johnny had no idea that Tilda was already set up for a blind date. He was still contemplating whether to go straight to her house and knock on the door!
If she didn’t come downstairs, how long was he supposed to wait here?
But… if he suddenly showed up at her house and met her parents, he really wouldn’t know what to say!
What if they asked who he was and what his relationship was with their daughter? How was he supposed to respond?
Was he going to say that their daughter had slept with him but didn’t want to take responsibility? That would make him sound like a jilted lover, wouldn’t it?
Moreover, if Johnny put it that way, Tilda’s parents would definitely want to kill him.
After pondering for a while, Johnny decided to call the head of Prosperity Holdings.
On the other end of the line, the tone was still respectful.
“Mr. Chow! How can I assist you?”
“Um, you need to buy some gifts and visit Tilda’s parents.”
The head was taken aback. “Mr. Chow, Miss Walters has been gone from Prosperity Holdings for many years!”
“I told you to go, so just go. Why are you being so verbose? Just say that Prosperity Holdings values her highly and thinks she did a great job. You want her to come back to work! Do I really need to teach you this?”
“Y-yes, it’s my fault for not thinking of that…”
“Remember, you need to ask Tilda to meet with you alone! Get her to come downstairs. Tell her there’s something at the company that needs to be discussed privately.”
The head immediately agreed, “Understood! Where should I take her afterward? To meet you?”
“I’ll be waiting downstairs at her apartment. Once you bring her down, I’ll see her.”
“Okay, okay! I’ll take care of it right away!”
“Make it quick.”
Johnny hung up the phone and glanced up at Tilda’s parents’ apartment.
He wondered if Tilda would suspect anything…
