Chapter 12Â
Although it was only a temporary stay for a month, the house arranged by the Woods family for Pry. in terms of both size and orientation, as well as the furnishings in the room, surprised her greatly.Â
At one point, she had some doubts about whether she had come to stay or to inspect.Â
This was also Doreen’s first time in this room, and she saw that even cosmetics were arrangedÂ
inside. She showed a high level of approval and rarely praised her son.Â
“I never expected Bruce to be so quiet on weekdays, but he is still very thoughtful in his actions. Ivy, can you see if there is anything else missing?”Â
Ivy shook her head quickly, with a look of surprise and astonishment in her eyes.Â
Looking at her face, which was seven parts similar to Ivy’s mother, and with such a cuteÂ
expression, Doreen felt her heart melting and couldn’t help but reach out to pinch her face.Â
As soon as she raised her hand, Bruce, who had just entered the room, grabbed her and pressed herÂ
onto the suitcase.Â
The plan failed, Doreen drooped her lips and looked at her unruly son, her tone filled with doubt.Â
“Did you really not take the wrong medicine today? Why do you feel more meddlesome thanÂ
before?”Â
Bruce glanced at Ivy, who had a surprised look on her face, after taking a quick look at each of theÂ
well–dressed mothers. He politely reminded her a couple of times.Â
“I checked the weather and Soltharion is slightly cooler than here, both in the morning andÂ
evening. You probably only brought summer clothes, but there are coats in the wardrobe, all newÂ
and clean. You can put them on if it gets cold.”Â
Ivy never expected that someone who only spoke one sentence online in ten days would be soÂ
thoughtful and considerate offline, even taking such small matters into consideration.Â
Thinking back to her actions on the plane, which were based on suspicion and mistrust, sheÂ
couldn’t help but feel a bit embarrassed. Half out of guilt and half sincerely, she thanked him.Â
Two people engrossed in polite conversation completely failed to notice Doreen standing behind them, wearing an incredibly nosy smile.Â
She silently slipped out and returned to the bedroom, took out her phone and sent a Line message to her good friend who was far away.Â

“Elle, it seems like our in–law dream had a good chance!”Â
After Ivy’s mother received this message, she also couldn’t stop smiling.Â
She opened the photo that her best friend had secretly taken, and looked at the handsome man and beautiful woman in it. No matter how she looked at it, they seemed like a perfect match.Â
Rod’s father, who was standing by, also leaned over to take a look, with a hint of amusement in hisÂ
cyes.Â
“Is that the guy who is close to Ivy and has a doll–like face? He seems to be doing well. If both of their children can settle their marriage in these few years, it will be much easier for the two of us.”Â
Ivy’s mother felt the same way, unable to hide the smile at the corners of her mouth.Â
“Rod and Yvette, Ivy and Bruce are all good kids. It would be great if they could settle down earlier, but if Ivy really ends up with Bruce, they will probably have to settle overseas, which does worry meÂ
a bit.”Â
“Children always have to grow up, as long as they are happy, we as parents are happy. As for theÂ
distance, it’s not a problem. In two years, I will also retire, so if you want to see Ivy, I will accompany you to visit her, right? At that time, we can spend half a year locally and half a year inÂ
Soltharion, just like traveling.”Â
“Soltharion? Are you going to travel to Cyrenth?”Â
Rod, who happened to be walking in at that moment, overheard the last sentence and casually askedÂ
about it.Â
Seeing him come back drunk, the smile on Rod’s father’s face immediately disappeared, and he looked at him with a serious gaze.Â
“Early in the morning, I ran out and called you seven or eight times, but you didn’t answer. It turned out that you went out drinking. Your sister today…”Â
