Three hours later, I landed in New York City.
As soon as I arrived, Yannick’s mother
welcomed me.
She and my mom were best friends who grew
up together.
Later, one stayed in Beijing, and the other
married into New York City.
Although they lived in two different places,
their relationship never changed.
Yannick’s mom happily and enthusiastically
hooked her arm around mine, looking around.
“Where did that stinky brat Yannick run off
to?”
The butler on the side said, “Young Master
was waiting for the Young Madam just now,
but President Ives just called him away for
something.‘
The butler’s address made me a little
embarrassed.
Yannick’s mom said, “That child, all he knows
is to be busy every day, Starling, Mom will
take you around first.”
Me: “…”
Too fast!
I looked down at my phone. Yannick had just
sent me a message.
[Wait for me, I’ll find you in a bit.]
I replied, [Okay.]
Yannick’s mom took my hand and introduced
me to the guests attending the banquet.
She said to everyone she met,
“This is my daughter–in–law, little Starling,
look how pretty her little face is.”
“Mrs. Davis, isn’t your son still single this
<
year? Look, this is my daughter–in–law, I’ll
invite you to the wedding!”
“Oh my, Mrs. Miller…”
After a few rounds, I couldn’t handle it
anymore!
But fortunately, there were too many people
at the banquet today, and Yannick’s mom was
also busy.
Before she left, she found the butler to
accompany me.
“Young Madam, there are many flowers you
like planted in the garden outside, you can go
take a look.”
I opened my eyes slightly, a little surprised,
“Flowers I like?”
The butler smiled and nodded, “Yes, Young
Master has been preparing for a month, we
know your preferences now.”
It’s impossible not to be shocked.
Under the shock, there were other
indescribable feelings in my heart…
At least, I don’t know Yannick well, but he
found out about my preferences so clearly…
“Thank you, Mr. Peterson, I’ll go take a look.”
I came to the garden. As the butler said, the
flowers planted were all the ones I liked.
As I was admiring them, a familiar voice
<
suddenly rang from the front.
“Starling Jiang, what are you doing here?!”
I looked up and saw Chloe standing in front
of me in shock.
Beside her was Chad Brennan, who had sent
me a text message saying he had something
urgent this weekend.
