Karen couldn’t help but recognize Jeffrey’s knack for smooth talking.

Opening the trunk of his car, Jeffrey revealed a bounty of gifts for Karen’s parents.

Peeking inside, Karen was struck speechless.

Skincare products and fine wine were one thing, but bringing a solid gold ornament as a first-time gift to meet the girlfriend’s parents?
