Paula echoed, "Mr. Russell, Miss Saunders, please go ahead. I can take care of Mrs. Saunders."
To avoid Shirley worrying, Mya nodded her agreement. "OK. I'll go back with Finnley. See you
tomorrow, Mom."
Finnley still hesitated as he couldn't rest assured.
Mya forcibly dragged him away.
After the youngsters left, Shirley closed her eyes, feeling bitter.
"What's wrong, Mrs. Saunders? Do you feel not well?" Paula bent over and asked with concern, "Shall I
call your attending doctor over?"
"No, thanks, Paula." Shirley opened her eyes, looking at her. She sighed, "I feel so sad..."
Sorrow also surged in Paula's chest.
Shirley said, "I don't know what's in the Russells' mind. They won't add insult to injury in front of the
reporters. Or they would be disdained."
"Are you worried about Miss Saunders?" Paula got what she meant.
Shirley replied with acquiescence.
A while later, Paula sat in the chair next to the bed and consoled her, "Mrs. Saunders, as you could
see, Mr. Russell treats Miss Saunders very well. Please rest assured."
"People will change." Shirley still felt upset. "The best marriage should be based on matched
backgrounds. They used to match, but now..."
Her words made Paula's heart heavy.
Finnley drove Mya back to Russell's Villa. The light in the car was yellowish. A romantic French song
was played.
Outside the car, the neon lights were on gradually. The night was out.
In silence, the two youngsters arrived at Russell Villa.
Their car was parked in the yard full of tulips. The night breeze spread the fragrance.
Mya returned to her senses. "Shoot! We forgot to buy gifts."
"What gifts?"
"We can't visit the elders without anything, can we?" Mya felt embarrassed. Her good manners told her
she shouldn't come over without any gift, even if she was visiting an ordinary friend.
Seeing her tense, Finnley gripped her hand. "It's your own house. We're married. Forgotten?"
He unbuckled her seat belt and smiled at her warmly. It sent security to her heart.
After getting off the car, Finnley propped his arm on her shoulder, passing encouragement to her.
No matter what Mya confronted, she wouldn't fear as Finnley and his love would protect her.
When they entered the living room, no one was seen.
"I need to use the bathroom." Finnley left Mya alone in the living room.
When Mya was about to call Albert and Violet, she heard some voices.
"If you hadn't stopped me, I would have let Finnley get divorced," Albert's voice sounded from the
second floor. "Clarence Saunders was eager to see his daughter get married, leaving all the trouble to
us."
Then Mya heard footsteps going downstairs. Standing in the living room, she gazed at the corner of the
stairs.
"Separating a couple is a crime," Violet retorted, "Our son loves her and is willing to marry her. Why are
you so nosy?"
The next second, the Russell couple passed by the corner and saw Mya in the living room.novelbin
Their eyes met in mid-air. The Russell couple paused their pace, and their hearts tightened. After a
long while, they checked the yard and saw Finnley's car.
"Hey, Mya." Violet adjust her expression and hurriedly went downstairs. "You are back. Why didn't you
call us earlier."
Mya seemed to freeze, still gazing at the mid-aged man on the stairs.
His complaints reechoed in her ears.
