“Also, even if you’re just putting on an act, if the girl is to marry into our family, you have 10 promise me one thing, that is…”

In the basement parking lot.

After an hour, Jack finally arrived. Naomi noticed the bag of medication in his hands. She furrowed her brows and asked concernedly, “Are you sick?”,

“It’s for you.” Jack pretended to nonchalantly throw the bag in Naomi‘s lap. He observed Naomi’s reaction through the corner of his eyes via the rearview mirror

“I know. You did well.” Upon hearing what she said, Jack smiled.
