The Carter’s.

After clearing up all the flowers, Emmett’s father sat on the sofa and asked in a sinking voice, “What on earth is going on?”

Emmett’s mother patted him on the shoulder with a frown, “Don’t be so serious. Talk nice.”

Emmett stood there. After a long while, he said, “Dad, Mom, I lied to you.”

“Lied? Emmett, make it clear.”

“Stella isn’t my girlfriend, but I like her, so I asked her to do me a favor to come to visit you.”

However, he had to admit that he had a special intention behind what he did.

Originally, he thought that as long as Stella agreed to visit his parents, he meant different in her heart anyway.

After that, he could use this as an excuse to make her continue being his girlfriend.

He had never expected that his plan was ruined by Clarence.

Emmett’s father snapped, “Look what you’ve done!”

After a while, Emmett’s mother said, “Is it her boyfriend who sent the flowers here?”

Emmett shook his head, “It’s her ex-husband. They’ve divorced. He kept pestering Stella. She hasn’t agreed yet.”

Emmett’s father looked a bit annoyed, “Why didn’t you tell us earlier that she divorced?”

“I didn’t think it’s necessary.”

“Unnecessary? You’ve taken her home already. Shouldn’t you tell your mother and me about her basic information? Now her ex-husband came here. Do you know what this is? You actively let him slip in your face!”

Emmett’s mother meddled in, “Enough. Enough. Just stop it. Stella is a good girl. I like her. Since her ex-husband changed his mind to chase after her again, it means this girl is indeed a good one. If she could marry into our Carter family, it’s our fortune. But you can only let nature take its course on things like love.”

As she spoke, she looked over at her son, “Emmett, you’d better know who on earth that girl likes. If she likes her ex-husband, don’t get in between. If she likes you, that would be wonderful.”
