Colin had a nice time dining with his parents. Because of what happened last night, perhaps,neitherRandall nor Colleen mentioned work stuff.

At the end of the dinner, Colleen asked kind of cautiously, “Well, I mean, Colin, I was thinking aboutholding a party for you tomorrow, to celebrate your return. What do you think about it?”

She then added, fearing that Colin would refuse, “They missed you. Your grandparents, your uncle,and everyone.”

Colin didn’t hesitate. “I think I’m switched to the local time. I should visit them actually.”

“It’s alright. They want you to rest well.” Colleen then added, “So, shall I book the restaurant?”

“Okay.” Colin had nothing against the idea. He couldn’t avoid this party after going back from abroad.

But he was thinking about something else. His grandparents from his father’s side were all alive. Butthey only had one son.

Colleen’s parents had passed away when Colin was still a kid. But Colleen had a brother, who was afamous engineer, named Joshua Donovan.

Joshua was very attentive to Colleen. Colleen listened to everything he said. And Randall listened toColleen’s order.

Colin’s grandparents never meddled with his thing. And his grandmother adored beauty. So, she woulddefinitely like Zuri.

So, the only person Colin needed to persuade was his uncle.

As long as Colin’s uncle Joshua accepted Zuri, every problem was solved.

After dinner, Colin went back to his room. As soon as he disappeared from the kitchen, Colleen sighed.

“I planned to invite Michelle to the party tomorrow. But now it looks Like a bad idea.”

The girl Colleen mentioned was Michelle Byrd, Uncle Byrd’s daughter. The two families werecolleagues and friends. They were very familiar with each other since the children were still young.

Now the children were all adults. Colin was handsome and gentle. Michelle Byrd was beautiful andelegant. They were both outstanding among their peers. That was why their parents wanted to shipthem.

Besides, Colleen also heard from Michelle’s mother that the girl Liked his son. So, the wish was evenstronger. However, she didn’t have the chance because both Michelle and Colin were studying abroad.

Now, they have both returned. And they were both at the age of getting married. Colleen wanted themto meet. Things wouldn’t be better if they could hit it off.

But after what happened last night, Colleen thought she’d better quit the idea this time.

Randall nodded, “Yup. It’s not the right timing.” He then said, “He is not even having a career. That’snot part of the plan. How would Michelle think about it.”

Colleen felt ashamed. “Yes, right. I don’t even know how to face Michelle’s family.”

Michelle majored in art and was now a painter. She became a teacher at university after returningabroad. And she was going to hold an exhibition of her work in a couple of days. She was a successnow. And in comparison, their son had given up both the research institute and the colleges. Such ashame.

Randall got up and waved his hand with a headache, “Forget it, I don’t want to mind about his businessnow. As long as he doesn’t steal or rob, he can do whatever he wants.”

Colin had always been a model student over the years. Randall had never needed to worry about him.No one knew what made him so reGordonious now.

Randall wouldn’t beat his child. But he didn’t know what Colin had in mind, so a verbal Lesson wouldn’tdo either.
