Chapter 94 - Get Married Before The End Of The Year (2/2)
Mimi was from a middle-class family and while her father had a small factory she could manage, she preferred to live carefreely. So unlike Arianna who had to work in the coffee shop because she needed the money, Mimi did it because it was enjoyable and interesting.
”A-hem,” the man intentionally cleared his throat and looked away having noticed the sudden change in the atmosphere.
The last time they had this kind of conversation, Mimi left the house for nearly a month and he didn't want a repeat of that. He nearly missed his daughter to death during that period.
”So what's your new working place like?” her mother inquired.
”I wouldn't really call it a working place, I would say he just hired my services,”
”He?” her mother only heard that word.
Here we go, Mimi rolled her eyes towards heaven. She was not ready for this conversation.
”Mom, he's off-limits. Moreover, we don't even meet that much since I'm still under training,” she tried to clear the misunderstanding only to pique her father's interest.
”Training?” the man had a suspicious look.
”My new boss has a special way of taking his coffee and I have to master the skill of making it without mistake. But then, his cousin is helping me with that,” she tried to put Victor in a positive light as much as she wanted to badmouth him. But Mimi might as well quit her job if her parents dares to hear what transpired between her and Victor.
”His cousin?” her mother's eyes brightened, ”You mean the same boss has a cousin?”
”He's my teacher,” Mimi said innocently.
”Why is he your teacher? Why can't your boss hire his cousin if he loves his coffee so much? Why you?” her father asked.
”Is the cousin more handsome than your boss? No, are they both unmarried?” her mother was madly curious.
And just like that, Mimi found herself bombarded by questions from both of her parents at the same time.
”I'm uncomfortable with your new job”
”Between your boss and his cousin, who do you feel more comfortable with?”
”What does your boss do for a living?”
”Is your boss an only child?”
And Mimi wasn't able to take it in anymore.
”Mom! Dad! Stop it!” She screamed at them.
”That startled me!” Her mother exclaimed, hand on her chest.
”I get a new job, you both should be congratulating me not killing me with questions,” She cried out.
”Congratulations!” Her parents shouted, faking their enthusiasm when all they needed was answers to their questions.
Mimi simply sighed, at this rate, she would get married before the end of the year.
