Sabrina looked at Figario to appease him when he asked her about her boyfriend. The following day, she had breakfast with her family before getting ready for work. However, as she was about to leave, her father said, “Remember to find a chance to invite that Reinhart guy to have dinner with us.”
“I got it, she agreed helplessly, surprised that her father remembered that. When she arrived at the company, Timothy was already there. “Good morning. Tim,’ she greeted him proactively.
Then, he hugged her and kissed her forehead. “Good morning.” After exchanging affectionate gestures, they shifted their focus back to work. Once Sabrina finished reporting the work progress, she left the office.
Nevertheless, she didn’t mention anything about her father’s request as she was too conflicted and didn’t know how to bring it up. She felt it was too soon to introduce her boyfriend to her parents since they had just started dating.
Later in the day, Timothy observed that her distraction impacted her work. So, he called her into his office and asked, “Why were you not focused on work today? Did something happen? Or did Prospera Group trouble you again?”
“Uh, no, nothing happened.” She pretended everything was fine and shook her head. Little did she know that the more she tried to act normal, the more obvious it was that something was wrong.
Seeing that, he got up from his desk and pulled her to sit on the nearby couch. “Come on, tell me what’s going on. Don’t tell me there’s nothing wrong. I can tell from your eyes that something is bothering you,” he said.
“I” Then, Sabrina looked into his dark, deep- set eyes and finally confessed, “It’s not a big deal. My father wants to invite you to have dinner at our house after hearing that you took care of Prospera Group.”
“So, you’ve been conflicted all this time over this?” he chuckled. She was about to refute, but he interrupted her. “You don’t have to worry about this in the future.
If Mr. Gulliver wants to meet me, I should be happy. Let’s set the meeting for this Sunday.” Afterward, he gently pinched her hand. and set a date to meet her parents.
Sabrina was happy to see him taking the initiative. After chatting for a while, they went back to work. However, Timothy was multitasking, thinking about what gift to bring for his first meeting. with her parents. At that moment, Henry came over, and he asked Henry for advice. “What gift should I bring when meeting my girlfriend’s parents for the first time?” he asked.
“Tim, if I didn’t know you for four years in university, I would think you’re only showing off that you have a girlfriend,” Henry replied in annoyance. He was already frustrated that he had to watch them being lovey-dovey daily. In addition, he was now being smothered with such words again by Timothy. “Don’t forget, I’m still single. You’d better ask Nicholas. He definitely knows better than I do.”
“You’re right. It’s useless to ask a single man like you.” Timothy agreed solemnly.
After hearing that, Henry was so annoyed that he threatened to break off their friendship for a day. Unfortunately, Timothy ignored him and focused on finishing his work so that he could leave early to seek advice from Nicholas.
That night, he went to Dynasty Gardens. After learning about his purpose for coming. Tessa cuddled up in her brother’s arms and couldn’t help but tease him. “I didn’t expect you and Sabrina to progress so quickly. It’s only been half a month, and you’re already meeting her parents. Looks like the day when I can hold my baby nephew is not far away.”
Although he was a little embarrassed by his sister’s teasing, he didn’t forget his purpose for coming. “Do you and Nicholas have any good ideas?” he asked.
“For the gift, it should touch the heart of the recipient. You can inquire about Sabrina’s parents’ preferences and send a gift accordingly,” she suggested.
No matter what, meeting the parents for the first time was a serious matter. It had to be taken seriously to leave a good impression.
