Chapter 532
I looked at the phone, feeling doubtful. Mom sounded rather strange just now. It felt as if she was trying
to hide something. I could not help but wonder if she had fought with Mark.
However, a whileter, Mom called again, sounding more rxed this time. She told me she was
having breakfast just now and had identally spilled her oatmeal, almost scalding herself. She
reassured me that she would go to the restaurant with Nathanter, and asked me not to worry.
That cleared up my doubts. I must have been overthinking. Christopher had been going through his
wardrobe for a long time, unable to decide what to wear. “Eve, what do you think I should wearter?
Should I wear something more formal? Or is it better to wear something casual that gives off a youthful
vibe? It’s my first time meeting your mom after all. I want to give her a good impression.”
I almostughed when I heard “youthful vibe.” Randomly, I chose something casual that was currently
in trend and passed it to him. “Just this is good enough. You’re meeting my mom, not going on a date
with me. Why do you need to look so handsome? Others might think that you’re going on a blind date.”
“Isn’t this equivalent to a blind date? It took us so much effort to settle my mom. I have to make sure
that your mom doesn’t find fault with me; otherwise, who knows when we can finally get married!”
Christopher held up the outfit which I had picked out for him in front of himself and said in
dissatisfaction, “This feels too frivolous. I’m not wearing it.”
“My mom won’t think that way. Let’s go now. If not, we’ll miss the flight.” I tugged on Christopher’s
hand, dragging him away from his pile of clothes.
When we arrived at the departure hall, I spotted Benjamin from afar. He was looking around and he
seemed a little anxious. Pacing back and forth, he looked up intermittently. Looking disappointed, he
gazed at the ground again.
It was my first time sending someone off at the airport. That could be because I did not have any close
friends. I had specially dressed up for the asion and brought along a present. ncing at the time, I
urged Christopher to hasten his steps, realizing that it was almost time for boarding.
When we trotted over, boarding procedures had already started. I saw Benjamin turning away, looking
dejected. Immediately, I shouted, “Benjamin!”
He turned around at once and his eyes lit up when he saw me standing in the corridor, still trying to
catch my breath. He jogged over toward me and said emotionally, “I thought you aren’ting.”
“Why would I do that? I’ve already promised you that I’ll be here. This is your farewell present. Safe
trip!” I said with a smile, passing him the gift.
“Thank you, Yvonne! I appreciate it!” Benjamin’s gaze was fixed on me as he looked at my white maxi
skirt and the pink hair clips I was wearing. He seemed to be in a daze as if he was reminiscing.
“You’re wee. Just hurry up and leave. Don’t look for my wife if there’s nothing urgent. She’s a very
busy woman,” Christopher said, feeling displeased. He had stepped in between us and pulled me into
his arms, blocking Benjamin’s view of me.
This guy must be jealous again. I shrugged helplessly and said apologetically, “Don’t mind him. He’s
always like that.”
Benjamin snapped out of his daze and let out a bitterugh. A momentter, he seemed relieved as he
said, “I don’t have any right to mind. Last time, it was me who… Oh, forget it. Anyway, remember to
send me an invitation if you get married. I’ll definitely fly back to attend your wedding.”
“I’m d that you know you have no right to mind. I think you need to get your eyes checked! You
should onlye back after you’re cured…”
“Ahem!” I coughed a few times, interrupting Christopher. What’s wrong with this man today? Why is he
provoking Benjamin? Does he really want to start a fight?
Benjamin was known for having a hot temper. In fact, his temper was even worse than Lyle’s. However,
he seemed so calm today. Looking at my fingers, which were interlocked with Christopher’s, he had a
serious expression as he said to Christopher, “Both of us are lucky enough to meet an angel. Since you
have found her, I hope you’ll always treat her well.”

“Of course, I will. I will do that for the rest of my life.” Christopher crossed his arms in front of his chest
and lifted his chin. “All right, time for you to go. The ne is not going to wait for you.”
I looked toward the departure gate. Indeed, the people who were queuing up a while ago were all gone.
There were only two airport staff members remaining, and reminders for passengers to proceed to the
boarding gate had been broadcasting.
“Yvonne, will you be happy?”
