Chapter 948 Do Me A Favor


    "By the way, how should I call you, sir?" Jeremy asked Cary carefully as he was afraid of offending him.


    Cary was surprised for a while. Then he realized that he forgot to introduce himself. Thus, he


    immediately replied, "Oh! I was totally blown-away by Mrs. Su''s delicious dumplings that I even forgot


    to introduce myself. My name is Cary Su. I''m Susan''s friend."


    "Cary Su," repeated Jeremy. Then he smiled and said, "What a coincidence. We have the samest


    name!"


    "Right! Maybe we were a family five hundred years ago!" joked Cary. He was socially-skilled and his


    humorous remarks made Jeremy smile from ear to ear. Susan, however, wore a long face as she was


    unimpressed by him.


    Cary didn''t stay any longer. He turned to the aged man next to him and said, "Uncle Jeremy, I can


    finally rx since you are already here to take care of Susan." Then he smiled, "I have something else


    to deal with. Thus, I need to get moving."


    "No problem. Go ahead!" Jeremy smiled back and replied. Then he said, "We want to invite you to


    dinner in our home. Come to our house when you are avable. I''ll have Susan''s mother prepare a lot


    of dishes for you!"


    "Thanks! I''lle for sure," Cary promised. Before he left, he also bid farewell to Susan who was still


    lying in bed with a sullen face. "I''ll see you soon, Susan. If you have any problem, just call me!"


    "Just leave my room!" Susan replied impatiently.


    Jeremy gave her a reprimanding re, very unsatisfied with her rude attitude. He then walked Cary out


    to the doorway. After a while, he closed the door and turned to Susan. His excitement was all over his


    face when he asked, "Susan, who is he? He looks good and he is also very polite. What''s your


    rtionship with him? When did you know each other? Why didn''t you tell us before?"


    Jeremy bombarded Susan with a series of questions. He recalled everything Cary had done and


    couldn''t help feeling that he was a goodd. If his daughter could have a boyfriend like him, he would


    ask for nothing more.


    However, Susan didn''t have a good impression on Cary. She believed that Cary was just a rich second


    generation who knew nothing else but to seek pleasure. She despised such kind of person. Thus, she


    curled her lips andined, "Dad, what are you talking about? I don''t have anything to do with him.


    We are not even friends!"


    "Don''t try to lie to me!" Jeremy didn''t buy what she said at all. He frowned and tried to prove his


    suspicion. Then he asked Susan, "If you are really not a couple, then why was he spoon feeding you


    porridge just now?"


    The question instantly rendered Susan speechless.


    It took her a few seconds to finally force a smile. "I have nothing to exin. In other words, I don''t have


    anything to do with him. Your efforts are useless!"


    "Susan!" Jeremy''s tone came out deep and serious. He sat on the edge of her bed and said, "Your


    mother and I didn''t want you to have a rtionship before because you were still a student. However,


    you have already graduated and you are old enough to start a new period in your life now. It''s time for


    you to have a boyfriend and even get married. I think the boy, Cary Su, matches you really good. Can''t


    you just consider him?"


    A deep sigh escaped his chest before he continued, "Your mother and I were so scared when we heard


    about your ident. You could have avoided being hurt if only there had been a man to protect you. If


    you really like him, just tell us. You don''t need to be shy and even lie to us."


    "Dad..." Susan frowned. She couldn''t understand why her father assumed that. She had exined to


    him clearly that it was impossible to have something between Cary and her.


    One short sigh and she decided to make her father give up the idea. "For thest time, it is impossible


    to have something between me and Cary. Forget it!"


    Though Jeremy just shrugged his shoulders, he was actually thinking of when to invite Cary for dinner.


    It would be nice if Susan''s mother could also take a look at their future son-inw too.


    Susan might not be rushing yet to have a boyfriend. However, they couldn''t just let her like this forever,


    right? Single and alone.


    "I have asked the doctors and they said that your situation is already stable. You can rest at home from


    now on. You only need to stay here one more night for observation. We can move out tomorrow," said


    Jeremy.


    "That''s great!" Relieved, Susan sighed upon noticing that her father changed the topic. It was just such


    a good thing that he finally stopped talking about Cary. However, she never expected Jeremy to begin


    talking about Cary again just a few secondster. "Let''s have a big feast tomorrow. You make a call to


    Cary and invite him to our home."


    "Dad!" Susan almost went crazy. "I have told you that we are just ordinary friends. You are over-friendly


    to him! If you keep doing this, he might think that your daughter is too cheap! Or I was dumped by other


    guys!"


    "Well...that''s right," Jeremy mumbled as he thought of what his daughter said. "How about this? You


    give me his phone number and I''ll call him myself. I''ll invite him out and say that it is our way of saying


    ''thank you'' and then you invite that girl you are always talking about. Sher...Sheryl, right? That would


    make it discreet since it wouldn''t appear that the feast is really for him. What do you think about this?"


    "I..." Susan looked at her father''s excited face, unsure of how to react. In the end, she gave up


    protesting because she knew that her father was more stubborn than her.


    After he left the hospital, Cary headed straight to BM Corporation. The receptionist assisted him to


    George''s office. George smiled and stood up as soon as he saw Cary. He walked forward to wee


    him. "Cary! It has been a long time! When was thest time we drank together?"


    They had been college ssmates in the past and they had a good rtionship. Cary smiled and


    replied, "Yes. It has been almost five or six years."


    George couldn''t help but sigh, "After so many years, you look still the same!"


    "But you have changed a lot!" Cary smiled. Then heined, "You didn''t even invite me for a drink


    after you came back to Y City."


    "Well..." Embarrassment flooded George''s face. He came to Y City because of Holley. He was fully


    upied by her affairs recently. Thus, he had no time to cope up with his old friends.


    He breathed a sigh and exined, "Honestly, I wouldn''t have time to visit you if you didn''te here


    today. I have been very busy these past few days. I have been running off my feet!"

    He then smiled and filled a cup of tea for Cary. "Anyway, it''s my fault. So...how can I make up?"


    "Tsk! That is unnecessary, of course!" replied Cary. He took a sip of tea before continuing, "In fact, I''m


    here today because I want to ask you about someone."


    "Ask about someone?" George was suddenly confused. "Who?"


    A smile cracked Cary''s lips. He stared at George and exined calmly, "You do understand that I''m


    already at my marrying age, right? I have a girlfriend and I want to bring her home. I want to introduce


    her to my family. She still has a contract with yourpany."


    Cary smiled bitterly, then continued, "You do know how important the old people attach profession,


    appearance and background to just about everything. My family would not like her current job.


    Therefore she decided to change to another job. I came here to terminate her agreement with your


    <ppany today."
