“Mom, what do you mean by that? Robin is in City Z?” June Brown demanded surprisingly. Why was he here? Why didn’t he let her know? June thought.
“Don’t you know that?” Lareina Lin glanced at June suspiciously. June seemed to have no idea of Robin’s location.
Thinking of this, Lareina felt relief. That meant Robin had not come to bother June these days.
“Never mind. Anyway, you already divorced that trash. He’s never your partner,” Lareina announced. That’s exactly what she expected.
June frowned, speechless. But she was still fixated on Lareina’s words.
What brought Robin to City Z? Was he related to Sabin Liu who disappeared for no reason? June wondered.
“Honey. I’m here for two things,” Lareina remarked.
“The one is to see how’s your work going in City Z.”
“And the other is that your Auntie Gloria arranges a blind date for you.”
“What?” June got a bit angry and said coldly, “Mom, I don’t want that.”
“Why? You divorced Robin Zhou, which means you’re single now. Why don’t you find another man?” Lareina interrupted.
“But mom, it’s only a few days after my divorcement. A blind date is too fast to me,” June couldn’t accept this. She did not expect that Lareina would give her a blind date so soon.
Feeling June’s anger, Lareina persuaded gently, “I don’t want to marry you off too. But Gloria told me the deputy Director of ZH Group happens to be single last month. She showed him your picture. The director likes you so much and wants a date with you.”
“Mom, don’t push me! You should know what Auntie Gloria is planning,” June shouted in anger. Although she never saw the man, June knew he would probably be as old as her father.
The so-called blind date was an excuse to swap her for Gloria’s promotion in that company.
Lareina smiled, embarrassed. Surely she knew Gloria’s real purpose, but she couldn’t tell the truth to June.
“All Gloria did is for you. She’s a kind person. And the director is just a bit older than you. Except for that, he has everything—two villas in the golden mile in City Z, four limousines, and even a 15% share of ZS Group. Only the shares are worth over four billion.”
“Trust me. Your marriage with the man will change your whole life and even Brown’s Family,” Lareina said, increasingly excited.
Discouragingly disappointed, June responded, “Mom, I’m not a thing of you.”
Lareina frowned, “What are you talking about? I just don’t want you to marry a loser again.”
“Enough!” June interrupted angrily, “Robin is not a loser. He’s the best husband in the past, in the present, and even in the future. Stop trying to find a man for me. That’s none of your business.”
After saying this, June turned around and left. Lareina flew into a fury, “June! You are my daughter. How can you treat me that way?”
Lareina chased June out of the airport.
As soon as they went out, they ran into Gloria Lin and Raina Tang.
“Hello. Auntie,” despite being angry, June greeted the two politely.
Gloria nodded slightly, then surveyed June and praised, “How come I never find June so stunning?” Gloria was happy that she could use June’s beauty to get promoted.
“Thank you,” June answered. Honestly, she didn’t like Gloria at all.
Hearing Gloria’s words, Raina couldn’t help but feel jealous of June.
“Yes. You are so beautiful. But it’s humiliating that you have such an ex-husband,” Raina teased.
Raina made no attempt to conceal her irony. But June didn’t mean to take it.
“June. Does your mother tell me the blind date?” Gloria hurriedly demanded. She must ensure everything went well. That’s why they rushed to the airport.
June replied coldly, “Yes.”
Gloria nodded happily, “Then you should dress up and meet Director Wang tomorrow. Perhaps you’ll have the wedding next week,” she continued.
It’s like Director Wang was a God to her.
June opened her mouth, “But auntie, I never said yes.”
“Why? What do you mean? Do you know who Director Wang is?” Gloria screamed.
