Chapter 107 The Mother-in-law’s Coming
At ZL Group, Carlos was listening to one of his secretaries, Zelda, do a report in his office when his phone rang. The caller ID said it was his mom.
"Mr. Huo, that's all. I'll leave it at that." When Zelda realized it was a personal call, she put the file on the desk and excused herself.
Once she stepped out and closed the door behind her, Carlos took the call. "Hello, Mom," he greeted.
"Son, did I catch you at a bad time?" Tabitha Luo asked in a gentle voice.
"No, not at all. What's up?"
"Your father and I saw the news this morning. Did you..." Tabitha Luo didn't finish her sentence.
Carlos knew what she was trying to ask. "Yes, Mom, it's true," he admitted.
"Then bring her home, please. Your father and I would like to meet her. Or, even better, I can come over in the two days I'm taking off duty." Something important occurred to Tabitha Luo. She urgently needed to meet her daughter-in-law-to-be.
"Okay. I'll have Emmett book an air ticket for you." For Carlos' part, he wanted to wait until his mother arrived to tell her that he and Debbie had already gotten married.
"Okay then. I'll let you go back to work. Take care of yourself. Okay?"
"Sure. I will, Mom. Bye."
Hanging up the phone, Carlos looked out the window, deep in thought. Not long after he and Debbie had registered for marriage, his grandfather had fallen into a coma. Therefore, till now, his parents still hadn't known about the marriage.
