“Are you worried, Mom?’ Seeing the look on Heidi’s face, Josephine was a little afraid that her mother


    was against their rtionship. “I can’t help but worry because our family is not in the same ss as


    him! The most blissful marriage is one between two families of simr backgrounds. With such a great


    difference, I’m afraid that you’ll turn into their servant if you marry him, Heidi exined, expressing her


    concerns to her daughter.


    “The Quarles Family is too high in the hierarchy and there are only a handful of families within the


    country who areparable to them. First of all, I hope you won’t marry far away, and secondly, I don’t


    want you to marry into a family of higher status. I just want you to marry a man with a stable ie


    and live your life peacefully,” she said and sighed.


    Looking into her mother’s worried eyes, Josephine didn’t know how she couldfort her. In the end,


    she said with certainty, “But I like him, and I’m in love with him.”


    Even Heidi was aware that no woman would be able to resist a man with Ethan’s looks and status. “I


    know and I feel you. How far are you guys into the rtionship now?’ Heidi asked in a serious tone,


    studying her daughter. Blushing, Josephine answered, “Well… we just started dating.”


    Heidi knew that she shouldn’t question more. Given society nowadays, it didn’t matter which stage of


    the rtionship they were in. Josephine was at an age where she should have experienced it all.


    “Alright. Let’s see how the rtionship goes, then! I’m not against it and will treat him normally.” In the


    end, Heidi decided not to ce any pressure on Josephine. Truth was, she liked Ethan very much.


    Meanwhile, Ethan was having tea and chatting with Mills downstairs. It also came as a surprise to Mills


    that Josephine had started dating a man with such an impressive background after not seeing her for a


    week. After observing Ethan’s mannerisms for a while, he concluded that Ethan was the best of the


    best and the elite amongst the elites. The young man’s morals, values, and n for his life were all


    very practical and clear.


    At the same time, Mills also found out about Ethan’s feelings for Josephine. To his pleasant surprise,


    not only was Ethan ready to reside in Averna, he had already bought a stake in the broadcasting


    company where Josephine was working and a vi in the surrounding area. He did all these because of


    his daughter.


    “Oh, would you look at the time! It’s almost 6.00PM and we’re still at home. Come on, Ethan! Let’s have


    dinner at Joey’s grandfather’s ce, Heidi said warmly. “Mom, I’ll be taking a car with Ethan.”


    After Mills drove out of his property, he saw a sports car parked in front of their house. From one look at


    the color, he knew that the car was meant for ady and wondered whether it was Ethan’s gift to


    Josephine.


    This is from N?velDrama.Org.


    Seeing this, Mills hoped that Josephine would look at her rtionship with Ethan with a clear head


    despite the material gifts, and not get caught up with mary gratification. Emotional satisfaction was


    also equally important.


    On the way to Peter’s ce, Mills filled Heidi in on his conversation with Ethan. He did so much for


    Joey in such a short period of time, huh? she thought in surprise and couldn’t help but recall the


    Presgrave wedding thest time. How exactly did they get to know each other and be so deeply in love


    in such a short time?


    “Why is Ethan so attracted to Joey?” Heidi asked, turning to Mills. “Our daughter has a rather


    impressive and admirable strength, which is the energy she carries with her. A determined, persistent


    energy just like me when I was young.”


    “Alright, alright. You can justpliment your daughter without taking one for yourself as well!” Heidi


    comined jokingly. Still, the couple was in high spirits when. Josephine introduced her boyfriend to


    them. In Ethan’s car, it was quiet because Josephine didn’t say anything. Ethan’s deep-set eyes saw


    through everything, as though by magic.


    “Did my background cause pressure on your family?” he asked. “Yeah, you did give them quite a shock


    because my parents don’t have any friends from a prestigious background such as yours,” Josephine


    muttered with augh.


    “Trust me. I’ll convince them that we’re good together,” Ethan murmured as he turned to her with a


    determined look in his eyes. Her lips curved into a pleasant smile and she nodded. “Okay!”


    Peter’s ce was a house with a small garden, where he now lived out his semi-retired days.
