Chapter 128

As soon as Susan left, his phone rang again.

Ben took a look and frowned even more.

“Edie, I’ve decided to come back. After experiencing the outside world, I realized that you’re the best harbor for me. I know that you have a new wife and I don’t want to destroy your family, but we can still get along as friends, can’t we? I’ll arrive at the airport at eight. o’clock tomorrow morning. Can you pick me up?”

Ben didn’t know what to reply.

So his decision was to blacklist Monica.

Then, he sent a message to Thomas: [Monica’s flight will land at eight o’clock tomorrow morning.]

At the Smiths‘ house.

Thomas was being asked to match the clothes for tomorrow’s blind date.

“Nice suit.” Mrs. Smith looked at him in the mirror and nodded with satisfaction. “What do you think?”

“Does my opinion matter?” Thomas asked.

Mrs. Smith thought for a moment and said, “No. Well, you don’t have to answer. That’s it.”

“Ok, Mom!”

Seeing that he was not interested, Mrs. Smith couldn’t help but remind him, “Thomas! You’re almost 30 years old. It’s time for you to get married and have children.”

Thomas didn’t take it to heart and was about to say something.

Mrs. Smith raised her hand and began to wipe away her tears. “Do you think I want to force you? I’m getting old, and my health is getting worse day by day. If I suddenly die and there isn’t any family by your side, how can I rest assured? Your father passed away early. Since you were a child, we depended on each other. Do you remember? Once…”

Mrs. Smith began to recall their difficult times, and Thomas could only comfort her with all his might.

After half an hour’s nagging, she concluded, “Anyway, if you don’t get married and have children as soon as possible, I won’t let you go even if I become a ghost.”

Thomas was shocked. “Mom! You can’t mean it, can you?”

“Of course I mean it!” Mrs. Smith glared at him. “Anyway, you have to perform well on this blind date tomorrow and try to leave a good impression on the girl. I’ve learned about her information carefully. She’s been well–behaved and good at studying since she was a child. She’s a graduate student at Anaville University! Anaville University is one of the top universities in the country. Since she is a graduate student there, she must be very excellent.”

Mrs. Smith showed him a thumbs–up.
