Now it was Glenn Hutchinson’s turn to have a headache.
"What are you going in there for? You should be running after her. When did you start shirking your responsibilities? You brought a young lady here in the first place, aren’t you obliged to see her home safely? What if she encounters danger on the way?"
Kirana Williams anxiously paced around Glenn Hutchinson, irked by his nonchalant demeanor, she wished she could push him out the door herself.
It was just so odd – her son couldn’t possibly be this irresponsible!
Of course, she didn’t know that Glenn Hutchinson and the others had planned for Flossie Wright to "encounter danger". The drama they enacted merely provided Flossie with an opportunity not to be escorted by him.
Even though the entire act was orchestrated and performed by Flossie Wright herself, Glenn Hutchison simply went along with it on the spur of the moment. It was solely to let Flossie Wright "bully" him a bit and satisfy her desire over these past days.
However, Glenn Hutchison had not anticipated that dealing with the one at home would be more difficult than dealing with the crowd outside.
"She’s just throwing a tantrum, it’ll pass in a bit."
He casually dismissed after closing the door.
"Can a tantrum go to this extent?" Kirana Williams didn’t believe him at all. She caught his arm and questioned with a frown, "Flossie always seems calm and rational to me. Nothing ordinary would upset her. Be honest, did you do something to offend her?"
It wasn’t Kirana Williams’s fault for imagining the worst, even suspecting her beloved son. It was simply because Flossie had made such a good impression on her.
Kirana Williams, after all, was a strong woman who had experienced the business world. She appreciated Flossie’s cool-headed personality. Seeing Flossie unfazed and at ease from the moment she entered the door, it wasn’t feigned aloofness, nor was it snobbishness.
On the contrary, she was very polite.
While chatting with Kirana Williams, there was never a hint of impatience. She attentively listened to minor matters, and when they discussed big issues of current events, she was discreet and composed, neither pretending ignorance nor forcibly trying to comprehend, rational and restrained. Talking to her was almost a pleasure.
On the other hand, Glenn Hutchinson, could render people speechless with just a few sentences. Chatting with him was just boring for Kirana Williams. Naturally, her liking for Flossie seemed to rise sharply, even surpassing that for her son.
Of course, the essential part was Flossie’s retreating figure, calm and easy-going, not at all like someone "throwing a tantrum."
No one could believe Glenn Hutchison’s dismissive reasoning.
Faced with Kirana Williams’s insistence, Glenn Hutchinson finally stopped. He spoke to her quite calmly, "No."
Kirana Williams gazed at him, uncertain whether to believe him or not.
After a pause, Glenn Hutchinson started speaking in a deep voice, "Miss Kirana."
All of a sudden, Kirana Williams instinctively stood still. Although still skeptical, she suppressed her doubt.
Whether it was her son or her husband, when they talked like this, it always put certain pressure on Kirana Williams.
Glenn Hutchinson turned around to face her, his deep voice was quite solemn and steady in his words, "She will definitely be your daughter-in-law."
Just in the blink of an eye, Kirana Williams was relieved.
"Daddy, phone call."
At this moment, the young Hutchinson walked over, toddling on his tiny legs. He was holding Glenn Hutchinson’s clothes in his hand and handed them to him coolly. Despite his polite action, his expression was that of annoyance.
