Chapter 163

Jocelyn hadn’t expected that the issue would weigh so heavily on her mind. The more she worried, the more it showed how much she cared.

Sincerity is always the key,” Jocelyn said earnestly. “Why not just be sincere?”

Melvin fell silent for a moment. “How do I do that?”

Jocelyn was at a loss for words.

“I’ve got it.” Melvin suddenly said, as if a light bulb had gone off in his head.

“How?” Jocelyn was curious.

“Just come over after dinner. I’ll be waiting at my place,” Melvin teased.

Jocelyn was speechless.

After hanging up the phone, Jocelyn really wanted to know how Melvin planned to win over her parents.

She parked her car in the neighborhood and spotted Harrison’s vehicle, which made her hesitant.

After paying the taxi fare, she walked upstairs. The door was ajar, and she could hear the laughter and chatter inside, as carefree as a family gathering. Her frown deepened.

“Yeah.” Harrison said. “Try some later.”

Jocelyn rolled her eyes. Harrison chuckled and stood up. “I’ll help out.”
