After Mindy and Jon left, Celia said apologetically, “David, don't mind him. My mother is like that, she is just very curious.”
“Dumb girl, why angry? Madam Young is just worried about me.” David said with a smile.
He still had no idea what Mindy had in mind. He thought it was because he had not come here for a long time and Mindy thought that there was a conflict between herself and Celia, and that was why she asked so many questions. Frankly, no one could be angry with a woman like Celia.
“David, how long will you stay in the Capital this time?” ask Cellia.
“Um... One or two days.”
“Why just a minute?” celia asked, feeling a little lonely.
He thought that David could spend more time here and accompany him around. He didn't expect David to leave so soon.
“I have no choice. The class reunion is coming soon, and I have to come back early because I promised to come. Plus, I have to go back to Aunt Sally and Aunt Diana as well. But I'll talk to your parents later to see if they can let you come with me.”
“Bulkah?” Celia asked happily.
“Of course, I don't think they will refuse.”
“As long as you ask, they will definitely not refuse.” Celia said excitedly.
He knows his mother very well. Right now, Mindy wants to marry him off to David. Of course, he would not refuse David's request.
“Good. When we return, I will introduce you to my aunt and the whole family.”
“OK.” replied Celia with a flushed face.
‘David said he grew up with Aunt Sally and Aunt Diana, right? Is he going to take me to the elders? I'm so happy! But I'm so nervous!' Celia thought, and her heart started racing.
Outside the Villa
“Jon, why did you pull me out? I haven't finished asking about him.” said Mindy, shaking Jon's hand.
“Honey, please, stop questioning him. Celia and David are not married. You might scare David if you keep doing that" Jon said.
“Why did I scare him? Although not married, she is still Celia's boyfriend, right? What's wrong with me asking her?” Mindy asked disagreed.
“What information can you get from it? You can't get anything!”
“Why not? Did you know Pearl, general manager of East League Capitals, went abroad more than 20 days ago? David also went abroad at that time, so they must have gone together. He said it was to handle some things? I think they went abroad to travel together!”
“Are you sure?” Jon asked.
“Of course! You didn't notice, but I kept an eye on the movements of the East League Capitals every day. More than 20 days ago, East League Capitals announced that their general manager Pearl Warner had brought the team to flourish overseas.”
“If that's the case, they might go together.” Jon thought about it and replied.
“What do you mean maybe? They must have gone together!” mindy said furiously.
“Then why if you ask? They are there to work. Do you want Celia to break up with David because of such a small thing?”
“I...” Mindy didn't know what to say to Jon back then.
“You must close one eye if you have no proof. Don't let you make things awkward for everyone.” urged Jon.
“But we can't let him keep acting like this, right? The more you pamper men, they will get out of line.”
“Stop bringing this up. We have no evidence, so should we ban them from interacting even if it's for work? David is the boss of East League Capitals and he brings in general managers and employees to thrive overseas. This is normal.”
“But..”.
“Nothing but, let's go. Go buy some food with me. We have to give them some alone time.”
After dinner in the evening, the family sat in the living room. Eventually, Mindy manages to hold back and doesn't keep questioning David.
“Mistress Young, Mr. Young, I'll be back in South River Province tomorrow. I have a high school reunion in a few days and I want Celia to accompany me there. Our campus is on holiday now and nothing much has happened. Plus, he's also a friend of our High School.” David told Mindy and Jon.
“OK, you can take Celia out to relax. We don't feel comfortable if he goes alone but we'll feel even more relieved if he's with you. Since you're there and it's vacation time, you two can go for a walk too.” Mindy said.
She desperately wanted Celia to stay with David every day, and of course, she would not turn down David's request.
“Thank you, Bu.” said Celia was happy.
“I know you want to go with David. When a girl is old enough, however she should be married.” complained Mindy.
“Bu, what are you talking about?” Said Celia with a flushed face.
Mindy then says to David, “David, you and Celia will soon start your fourth year at university. I think you two should get married after you both graduate from university. When you have a stable family, you can then go out and start a career. Of course, even though you no longer need to force yourself, after marriage, a man will become more mature and stable. It will also be very beneficial for your future career development.”
“Bu, we are young. Why are you talking about marriage again?"
Mindy glanced at Celia, but she ignored her and continued to stare at David. He thinks in his heart. 'Stupid girl, I'm helping you. With your temperament, you'll let David make all the decisions and won't mind. If I don't do something, I don't even know
what will happen to you two. I'm just keeping watch so you don't end up empty handed.'
David did not expect Mindy to suddenly ask such a question. He does not do things at all according to the right course of events and he will speak whatever is on his mind.
However, David still replied, “Mrs Young, we are both young and we are still a year away from graduation! If Celia doesn't mind then, I'll agree to marry her.”
David definitely would not disappoint Celia. After she saved him back then, Celia continued to sacrifice herself for him and even waited for him for many years.
However, David had a little trouble with Pearl. She could feel Pearl's feelings towards her, but what could she do now that she had Celia?
At this time, David wished he had been born in ancient times. It was not that he wanted to marry many wives, but he did not want to disappoint Celia and Pearl.
Back then, she had invested so much in Sarah, and now, these two women were doing the same for her.
'Hhh!' David sighed in heart.
It's not good for a man to be too good. At least, this is what David felt.
“Alright, it's done then. You will get married after graduation. It's good to start a family early" Mindy said happily.
If David could say that, it meant that he liked Celia a lot. As for Pearl, she would step down if David and Celia got married.
The next morning, David and Celia flew straight to River City in South River Province. After getting off the plane, David brought Celia back to the South River International Residence. Although she had not returned for a long time, the housekeeper would come to clean the house every week, so her house was still very clean.
On the way, David called the Golden Leaf Hotel to ask them to deliver lunch to the South River International Residence. He was too lazy to hide anymore, and since he had the strength, he had to use it.
After entering the South River International Residence, David said to Celia, “Celia, if you are tired, you should take a break and I will call you when lunch arrives.”
“I'm not tired. David, is this where you live? Beautiful once.” asked Celia while looking around the house.
“Yes, I used to live here. If you like, we can stay here for the next few days. If you want to stay in a hotel, we can do it too. There's an eight-star hotel near here, mine too.”
“No, I don't want to stay in a hotel. I'm fine living here" Celia said.
“Alright, we'll stay here. In the afternoon, I'll take you to see Aunt Sally and Aunt Diana. They also live in this area.”
“Um... David, do I need to buy some presents for them?” Celia asked awkwardly.
He was still a little nervous to see the elders of David.
“No, they don't lack anything at home. It's okay if you come without bringing anything. Isn't this what you told me when I went to your house?” david said with a smile.
“It... It's different.” whispered Celia.
“Alright, it's okay. Aunt Sally and Aunt Diana were very nice people. They don't care about these things. Do you want to take a shower and rest?”
“No, I'm not tired. I will only see the scenery here, you must leave first." Celia said as she walked towards the large French window.
“Alright, I'll go upstairs and take a shower. I'll be right down, you sit here for a minute.” David went upstairs.
Celia stood by the window and took a few deep breaths to ease her nervousness. After more than ten minutes, David went down. The two sat in the living room chatting for a while before the doorbell rang.
“It was supposed to be lunch. I'll open the door.”
David walks to the entrance, opens the door, and discovers that it is Aunt Sally and the others.
“Dave, why didn't you tell us that you were back?” Aunt Sally asked in a reproachful tone.
“Yes, it's been a while since you came back. If it wasn't for the people at the hotel saying that they would deliver food for you, we wouldn't have known you were back" Aunt Diana said as well.
“Aunt Sally, Aunt Diana, I just arrived. I'll see you guys in the afternoon. Come in and sit down.”
After David said that, he invited Sally and the others to come in. Sally and Diana are not the only ones here, Uncle Alex, Uncle Yousef, Cousin Judy, husband Judy, Cousin Lily, and Cousin Jacey are all here.
The two families, in addition to Lily and Jacey who are still in school, all work at the Golden Leaf Hotel. Plus, they hold medium to high ranking positions, so they don't have to do much to make a lot of money. David deliberately set this up. Their annual salary is more than the general manager's salary at the Golden Leaf Hotel.
David has changed the lives of both families. They had gained a foothold in a big city like River City. They drive luxury cars and live in luxury villas. In addition, they have decent jobs that pay them very high salaries.
They felt very proud when they returned to Shu City together. The two families will drive three luxury cars each worth millions to return to Shu City, creating a dazzling sight. Other than them, there had never been three luxury cars worth millions appearing simultaneously in Shu City.
