Chapter 93: We’re Friends

Xenia Lewis rattled eagerly as she updated Yvette Quinn about everything that happened at William Scott’s grandma’s house. The most important thing was his family’s attitude towards their future daughter-in-law. There was also Lydia Connor, his relative.

“Oh, so Lydia Connor is actually a relative.” Yvette Quinn was a little surprised.

William Scott continued, “You don’t have to specially take care of her. Just do what you normally do.”

Yvette Quinn said, “Lydia Connor’s ability is still alright. If there’s an opportunity, it’s not a big deal for me to help. After all, we’re relatives. If I don’t take care of her, I’ll look like a heartless person. Your mom would be in a difficult position as well.”

Although Yvette Quinn and Janna Sands had only met once, they had chatted a lot via texts. Coupled with William Scott’s reminders, she had some understanding of Janna Sands.

In front of Xenia Lewis, she still had to consider the fact that she was supposedly William Scott’s girlfriend.

Xenia Lewis chuckled and stood up. She said, “All right, I’ve already explained everything that needs to be explained. I have nothing to do with the rest. How you want to resolve it is your business. I won’t disturb both of your private time.”

Xenia Lewis left immediately. Before she left, she even sent both of them an ambiguous look.

When they were left alone in the house, William Scott said helplessly, “The main responsibility for this incident is still my mother. She deliberately set up everything.” At this time, his mother was used as a scapegoat.

Yvette Quinn sat down. “I can’t blame her. I can understand how a mother feels.”

William Scott also sat down and said seriously, “But this matter will be more troublesome from now on. I feel that if this continues, we won’t be able to get away that easily. It will only make things more troublesome for us in the future.”

“Well… that’s true.” Yvette Quinn frowned.

“Then why don’t… we replace an excuse to break up?” William Scott probed.

......

Yvette Quinn immediately shook her head and said, “No, if we break up, other than having to endure the nagging from our families, they will definitely keep urging us to go on blind dates. It will be equally troublesome.”

William Scott coughed lightly and said, “It’s fine if it’s something else, but if you come to my house again…”

This was also a problem that troubled Yvette Quinn. “That is indeed…” She touched her forehead with a helpless expression.

The two of them gazed at each other. There was nothing they could do at the moment. After a while, Yvette Quinn said, “Why don’t we do this? In the future, when I go to your house and your mother asks me to stay, you can say that it’s not convenient. Then we’ll stay somewhere else or we can come to my house for the night. You can stay at a hotel and I’ll reimburse you.”

“That’s a good idea, but forget about reimbursement. We are both helping each other.” William Scott nodded in agreement.

“There’s another matter. It’s my father’s birthday next month. I’ll have to trouble you to go back with me.”

“No problem,” William Scott replied readily.

After concluding the matter between the two of them, Yvette Quinn said, “Thank you so much for your help regarding the loan.” As she spoke, she took out a card and handed it to him. “Here’s two hundred thousand.”

“Why are you giving me money?” asked William Scott.

“You’ve been a great help to the company. This is to thank you. Actually, two hundred thousand is considered a small amount, but since I’m not paying the bank, it’s not easy for me to have so much cash. That’s all I can have for you. I hope you understand.”

William Scott waved his hand and said, “I won’t accept this money. It’s a win-win situation for us, and I treat you as my friend. It’s only natural for me to help you. If I take your money, that means you’re not my friend.”

“Friends?” A smile appeared on Yvette Quinn’s face. “In that case, we have to make sure we clear everything up clearly. So you still have to take the money you deserve. Otherwise, I’ll be too embarrassed to ask you for help in the future.”

William Scott replied solemnly, “Yvette, other than you being a friend, I don’t like this way of profiting from someone. To put it bluntly, this is a way of using power to get money. If I accept your money, I won’t be able to get over it. If you insist on paying me, I really can’t help you in the future.”

Yvette Quinn looked at him in shock for more than ten seconds before taking back her bank card. She said apologetically, “I’m sorry. I am too used to resolving matters in this way. It definitely won’t happen again. But I have to say that you’ve really impressed me. There aren’t many people who can be so self-righteous and not be tempted by money.”

William Scott grinned and said, “I have no choice. I’m used to being a soldier.”

Yvette Quinn shook her head helplessly. “If only the world was as ethical as you are.” Then she smiled brightly. “I initially thought you were just a man whom I’ve hired, but now I really feel that you’re my good friend. I feel that our cooperation will only get better.”

William Scott extended his hand and said, “To a happy cooperation!”

They shook hands, then smiled at each other.

When William Scott returned home, his mother immediately pulled him over and said, “Son, should you not thank me this time?”

Graham Scott said angrily, “How can you instigate your son to harm a girl?”

Janna Sands glared at him and said, “What nonsense are you rambling about? What do you mean by harming a girl? This is dating, understand? Young people nowadays are dating, so they should stay together. This way, their relationship can progress. Besides, only by staying together can they know if they are compatible.”

Graham Scott’s face darkened. “What nonsense are you talking about? How can you encourage your son like that?”

“I mean lifestyle and habits. What were you thinking?”

“Oh…” Graham Scott was embarrassed this time.

William Scott was torn between laughing and crying. He quickly interjected, “Dad, Mom, stop arguing. I know what to do.”

Janna Sands knocked William Scott’s head and said, “What do you know? If it weren’t for me, would you have won over her so quickly?”

“Yes, yes, Mom is mighty and smart.” William Scott quickly complimented his mother.

Graham Scott shook his head and said, “Your son has been led astray by you.”

“How is my son bad? You don’t know how outstanding he is now. You’re so stubborn, old man. It’s a good thing my son isn’t like you. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to replace an outstanding girlfriend like Yvette.”

“Yes, yes. I’m stubborn. Then why did you marry me in the first place?”

“I was blind then. If I had the choice again, I wouldn’t marry you.”

William Scott quickly slipped back to his room. Although his parents always teased each other, he knew very well that his parents were very loving and they were merely bickering for fun.
