Chapter 142: Meeting The Parents (Part-3) (2/2)

Here we go…

“Why didn’t you tell that you are sick!? I would’ve asked my parents to meet you some other day!” she says, pouting cutely.

… Sick?

“Seriously, your body was so hot when I touched you— it nearly scared me to death! It’s good that you were carrying your medicine and that your temperature got back to normal, or I would’ve called the ambulance,” She continues.

Wait…

“Mrs. Bailey told you this?” I ask with a frown.

“Who else would? She was the only one here with you,” Kate answers.

…

“I see… Is that all she said?” I ask.

“Oh, not at all! She told me how your conversation went as well!” Kate answers, getting really excited all of a sudden.

“S-She did?”

“Yes! And I think she absolutely loved you, Jacob! She said that talking to you felt really good and that you’re an amazing guy. She even said that you’re a perfect match for me! Honestly, I’ve never seen my mother look so impressed by someone,” Kate says.

“Is that so?”

“Yes. You should’ve seen my dad’s face when she was praising you so passionately — I thought he was going to explode any second,” she says with a laugh.

“Haha… ha…”

…

So, basically, she lied to them about what happened and even praised me. I may be wrong, but I have a feeling as to why she did it.

Sigh… This is definable not what I wanted, but it’s still better than the other dreaded outcome.

“Oh, and by the way, mum wanted to let you know that she would love to talk to you again sometime. Also, you are invited to visit our house anytime you want. Dad agreed to this as well— he said he will continue today’s meeting some other day,” she tells me happily.

…

“That’s… That’s nice. Anyway, where are your parents?” I ask.

“Oh, mom went out to get some groceries and dad is in his room— the one next to this room,” she answers.

I see…

“Well then, I guess I should be going now. It’s getting late.”

After a short train ride, I am currently walking my way towards my house. Kate strongly insisted for me eat dinner at her place, but there’s no way I was going to wait for Mrs. Bailey to return. I somehow managed to convince her to let me go.

“I still cannot believe my luck. I escaped a disaster today,” I say in a low voice, sighing to myself.

As I come close to my house, I notice a really expensive black car standing outside the gate. And for some unknown reason, it gives me a really bad premonition.

Passing by the car (no one is inside), I reach the door and ring the bell. A second later, I hear the sound of hurried footsteps from inside and Rebecca opens up the door with a jerk—looking exceedingly worried.

She didn’t go home yet?

“Come on in quickly, Jacob. Zakira is here to talk to you. This is an emergency,” she says.
