“Hmm, how big is his company?” Amelia Lee also keeps up with the news, but she didn’t associate it with Finn Lewis when she heard his name.
“Not bad, although I’m not very clear about the specifics.” Kay Lee didn’t know how to explain it for the moment, should she tell her mother that her previous crisis was handled by Finn?
Amelia actually doesn’t know much about the crisis, but she knows about its connection to Bryski Miller. When Bryski was set up to meet Kay, Amelia was aware. Amelia is not one to place money above all else. However, for Kay, finding an ordinary boy might bring many troubles. Parents generally hope to find an outstanding young man for their daughter.
No one expected such a thing to happen later. Amelia thought about it for a moment, then she voiced her question, “And, what’s this about Sarah?”
“What’s going on with Sarah?” Kay Lee looked at her mother with some bafflement.
“Why did you let her be your manager? You’re well aware of Sarah’s identity,” Amelia pondered over this, then reluctantly spoke her mind.
“Ah, mom, you don’t need to worry about this, also, I hired Sarah as my manager and it’s not like I don’t pay her a salary, so don’t worry, okay?” Kay Lee held back from saying something more: the main focus of that woman wasn’t even on her to begin with. She only became Kay’s manager in order to get money from Finn to pour into their foundation.
Seeing Kay Lee acting spoiled, Amelia felt a bit helpless. She patted Kay Lee’s hand and said, “Darling, don’t blame me for being nosey. I need to tell you that you can often see whether a man is reliable or not. You mustn’t let sweet talkers fool you. Many men in this world desire women for their looks and bodies. You need to be extra cautious.”
Amelia’s advice stemmed from her own experiences. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have raised Kay Lee as a single mother, with Kay even taking her mother’s last name.
“Okay, mom. I get it,” Kay spoke quickly, hoping to avoid bringing up sad memories for her mother. As for the situation with Finn, Kay didn’t know what to say at the moment. It was only after she managed to soothe her mother that Kay stealthily dialed Finn’s number.
“What’s up?” As soon as Kay called, Finn hurriedly answered. A call at this time from Kay would certainly be important.
“Nothing much, I just wanted to tell you, my mom probably doesn’t recognize you, and I didn’t explain things in detail to her. If you can avoid mentioning the scale of your company, please do so. Otherwise, my mom might object to us dating.” Kay voiced this calmly. Although Finn hadn’t confessed his feelings to her yet, it seemed like both of them had steadily advanced to this step together.
After his call with Kay, it wasn’t until the afternoon that Finn drove towards where Kay lived. He, of course, chose to take the car nicknamed “Olivia Thatcher.” As long as they didn’t focus too much on cars, no one would recognize that “Olivia Thatcher” was a particular car. Even though the promotions for the Xuanyuan Sword had begun and the hype was building, Finn only revealed the emblem of the Goddess of Light car and the car’s shape had not been released on any official websites.
Feeling a bit nervous, Finn arrived the bottom of Kay’s apartment building. This unease had no relation to his strength – anyone in his position would be nervous. Of course, if Finn didn’t like Kay, this would be another story altogether.
Standing downstairs at Kay’s apartment, Finn took a deep breath, then carried two boxes of tea upstairs. He was dressed in a more casual outfit from Little Wildcat Protective Suit. Neither formal nor overly casual – coupled with Finn’s demeanor, he looked the part of an attractive, affluent gentleman.
Standing at Kay’s front door, Finn took another deep breath, then rang the doorbell. Not long after, Kay’s voice resounded from inside, “Coming.”
With a creak, the door was opened from the inside by Kay, her flawless beauty presented before Finn. Seeing him, Kay took a subconscious glance behind her to ensure her mother wasn’t near. Confirming that, she coyly stuck out her tongue and whispered to Finn, “Come in.”
After letting Finn enter, she turned around and called out, “Mom, Finn’s here.”
“Oh.” The response came from within, and soon after, a silhouette emerged from the living room. A woman in her forties, much different than what Finn had imagined. She looked like an ordinary woman, her skin wasn’t in great condition, but there was a 70% resemblance to Kay, it was clear she was a beauty in her youth.
“Hello, aunty.” Finn greeted her, slightly nervous.
Amelia was pleased at her first sight of Finn. At least at the first impression, he was definitely not one of those smooth-talking young masters, but had an indescribable stable charm to him.
“You’re here, come, come in and sit.” Having passed the first impression check, Amelia ushered Finn in cheerfully.
Finn didn’t participate in the courtesy, he changed into slippers and went straight in. Kay had brought out the slippers. Seeing the men’s slippers, Amelia couldn’t help but sigh, she already prepared even his slippers, needless to say, Finn must have been coming often, and most importantly, she knew her own daughter pretty well. This young man named Finn occupied an important place in her daughter’s heart.
Since her childhood, Kay has been just like Amelia during her youth, her looks aren’t unmatched, but they were definitely among the top few. Amelia has been chased by countless young men when she was young, so she’s pretty clear that her daughter not only has a pretty face, and a successful career as a famous actress, hence attracting a lot of suitors.
Perhaps it was due to the influence of her family environment, but Amelia had never seen Kay treating any guy with a pleasant attitude while she was growing up, including her father. Although Amelia raised Kay single-handedly, that doesn’t mean that Amelia wanted Kay to have such a strained relationship with her father. So many years have passed, there’s nothing that they shouldn’t let go of, as long as the child is fine, Amelia didn’t want Kay to be estranged from him.
But Kay had always been cold to him, Finn was essentially the only one who got to frequent Kay’s place, and judging by the look in her daughter’s eyes when she looked at Finn, Amelia sighed; it was exactly the same as the look she had used to look at Kay’s father when she was young.
