A Call That Changed Her Entire Life

Inside a quiet park, Cherish and Carlos were peacefully sitting on a wooden bench. Cherish snuggled up into Carlos' arms and both of them just enjoyed the sunshine on their faces. After a while, the sun was starting to hurt Cherish's eyes and she thought it was time to go back. She raised her head to meet Carlos' eyes and said, “Maybe we should give my parents a visit? They called me a few days ago and said that they would love to have a meal with us.“

Carlos slowly opened his eyes and replied, “I think that's a wonderful idea. How about we go later this afternoon? We should also go to the mall to buy some gifts for them. I'm sure they'll enjoy that, right?“

Cherish smiled when she heard Carlos' plan. While nodding at him, she enthusiastically responded, “Okay, let's do that!“

After eating lunch at their place, the two of them took their luggage to the trunk of their car. They also bought some tonics, clothes, and a few other things to give as gifts. Cherish was quite the filial daughter, so going to her parents' house without bringing something was unlikely of her.

“Did we forget anything? If not, we can leave right now!“ Carlos asked while catching his breath as soon as they finished carrying everything to the car.

Before giving an answer, Cherish stood at the back of the car and checked the trunk to see if everything was ready. When she was happy with what they had brought, she replied, “All right, we're good to go. I just need a moment to change into another pair of shoes.“

Carlos helplessly looked at Cherish. As usual, women always had to do a wardrobe change before leaving.

Meanwhile, In the Shen Family's household, Saul, Fabian, and their maid were busy preparing a feast for the couple.

When they were done, Saul looked at his watch and said, “When are they going to be here? The dishes are starting to get cold.“

Noticing that Saul was starting to get impatient, Fabian glanced at him and said, “Don't worry. Young people are busy, so naturally, they'd be late. We can just wait. If you are worried about the dishes, we can just cover the food.“

Just when Saul was about to reply, Carlos and Cherish pushed open the door and walked in with tons of gifts in hand. When they heard the door open, Saul and Fabian rushed over to the living room and saw the couple struggling to carry everything they had brought. “Oh my! You kids didn't have to bring this many gifts. Your father and I already have everything we need.“ Fabian greeted them with a blissful smile on her face while she helped them carry their luggage.
