That evening, Joshua accompanied Lilliana back to the Green family residence.

He played the role of the ideal fiancé, apologizing to Cedric Green, Lilliana's father. “My father has been ill for quite some time, and there are still several matters at the company that require my attention. I have already received a few calls asking me to come back. Please take care of Lilliana for now. “I will come back to pick her up tonight.”

Lilliana grabbed onto his arm, reluctant to let go. “Come back soon.”

“I will,” Joshua replied, gently running his hand through his hair, his eyes softening. “I’ll be back by ten at the latest.”

"OK."

Meanwhile, Cedric stood nearby, watching them silently.

Lilliana pouted at him. “Dad, you’re kidding me again.”

“Don't lose yourself in this relationship, Lilliana,” Cedric warned her.
