Mabie had been very worried the moment Vera left with Sheridan. She also regretted that she did nothing as a mother.

She had already discussed with Vera before that she felt that there was something wrong with Sheridan. Why did she still let Vera go out with him?

As time passed, Mabie became more and more anxious. She didn't want to manage the restaurant anymore; she wanted to go look for Vera.

Seeing she was restless, David complained.

"What's going on with you? You've been anxious since Vivy left. What's the matter?"

Mabie was anxious, but there was nothing she could do. Hearing David's words, she sat in front of him.

"Don't you think there is something off about Sheridan?"

David asked, "Why are you being so suspicious about him? What is there to worry about? Isn't he getting along with Vivy well?"

"It is exactly because there is no problem at all that it is suspicious. Think about it, when had Amelia ever introduced a good partner to others? Something would always happen. I actually didn't want to agree to this. We are not in a hurry to find a boyfriend for our daughter anyway, aren't we? But who would've thought that Vivy actually agreed to this blind date? I have no idea what this child is thinking."

Davis said, "What else? She probably started having the idea of getting married. Why would she agree to the blind date if she didn't want to get married?"

Mabie was rendered speechless.

The thoughts of a basic man could really drive one crazy.

"It's one thing if young boys don't understand these things. How can an old man like you be so simple-minded? Can you think about it properly? Vivy is your daughter; can you not treat this like it's no big deal?" David didn't know how to respond after being scolded for no reason.

What did he say wrong? Why would Vera agree to the blind date if she didn't want to get married? She could've just rejected if she didn't want to.

Mabie didn't want to explain it to him anymore. She grabbed her phone and said, "No, I have to call her to find out about the situation."

"Vivy has grown up and has her own way of thinking. Don't disturb her, or else she will find us annoying."

"I'm not trying to mess things up; I'm just worried about her safety. I'm afraid that Sheridan will harm Vera. Can't you understand?"
