Interest

[Chapter 221]

It was not long before Celia pulled up in front of Joshua in her favorite car, a red Ferrari.

Joshua was about to open the door to the front passenger seat to get in.

However, Celia rolled down the window and said to Joshua, "I'm sorry! Joshua, my besties don't like going shopping with guys, so you can have fun by yourself! Bye!"

With that, she stepped on the gas and disappeared from right under Joshua's nose.

Joshua was left standing in the wind with a confused face.

He was indeed confused.

He could not believe that Celia would pull this stunt.

Making him wait here for her was just an excuse. She had no intention of bringing him along i n the first place!

She could not get rid of him if he drove and followed her, but it was too late for him to start driving now. He could not catch up with her.

'What should I do?

'Go back?

'I can't afford the humiliation!'

The two of them went out together, but he went back alone.

Finally, he decided to drive away and drink with his buddies!

'F*ck!

Celia did not come home until evening.

She saw her dad Jon and her mom Mindy sitting on the couch in the living room as soon as she entered her house.

She wanted to sneak upstairs.

However, Mindy stopped her.

She could only sit down with them.

"How was it, Celia?" Asked Mindy.

"How was what?" Celia asked, pretending not to understand.

"Don't play dumb. Joshua!" "He's nothing special!" Celia replied casually.

"What do you mean he's nothing special? He's a top student who had studied abroad."

"Mom! He won't even tell us what school he graduated from. A top student? He just spent some money to study overseas because he can't make it here! Don't be fooled."

"Well… Even so, he's pretty good-looking, tall, and has a nice family background. His father's…"

"Mom! What does it matter to me who his father is?"

"Why doesn't it matter? I'm trying to set you two up."

"I'm not interested!"

"You… Jon! Look at the good daughter you raised!" Mindy turned and yelled at Jon.

"What does it have to do with me?" Jon asked innocently.

"Why does it not have anything to do with you? She has been following you around these years! Celia used to be so obedient. She never talked back to me."

"Our daughter became this way because you're away all the time!!" muttered Jon.

"Jon… Young! How dare you blame me? Do you think I want to be away all the time? Do you think I want to fly all over the country and the world? Am I not exhausted? Could you afford to live in such a nice villa and hire people to do the chores if I don't do that? We mother and daughter would have starved to death on your salary!" Mindy roared angrily.

"Okay, okay, okay! It's all my fault. You've worked so hard, Darling! I didn't educate our daughter well. I'll educate her in the future!" Jon quickly admitted his mistake.

If he did not admit he was wrong, she would blow the roof off their house.

"Hmph!"

"Well, Mom, I'll go upstairs first if there's nothing else!"

"Wait! I'm not done yet! Do you have no feelings for Joshua?" Mindy asked earnestly.

"Yes! And I'm still in school! Are you that anxious to marry me off?" Celia said a little aggrievedly.
