Koa Jackson: "..."

After a moment, he said irritably, "Are you short on money?"

"Not at all." Mia Ginger shook her head and added, "But if I charge rent for a single room, we can stay over there for a bit too."

The two got in the car.

Koa Jackson started the car and hit the road, thinking for a bit, then said, "Stay at a hotel."

Hotel?

Mia Ginger frowned and thought, it didn’t seem very necessary.

She didn’t say anything, simply took out her phone, looked down to find Olivia Williams’ number, and dialed it.

Koa Jackson asked her, "Who are you calling?"

"Just Olivia, she’s the friend I was talking about."

"It’s already one o’clock, you’re calling someone?" Koa Jackson reminded her.

Mia Ginger was taken aback, quickly looked down to hang up, and saw the call had already been answered. Olivia’s soft voice came through, "Hello, Mia."

"Sister Olivia." Mia Ginger quickly smiled and said, "Am I bothering your rest? I didn’t notice the time."

"I haven’t slept yet, what’s up?"

"Are you at Blossom Quarter?" Mia Ginger asked.

"Hmm," Olivia hesitated, "Not there."

"Oh?" Mia Ginger paused, suddenly hearing a man’s cough over the phone, her mind turned, suddenly understanding, she chuckled, "I forgot you married Lawyer Petal, have you moved to the Petal Family already?"

"No." Olivia hurriedly denied, "That’s quite a complicated story."

"Oh." Mia Ginger stopped speaking, laughed, "We’ll chat when you have time. Just letting you know, I’ll be going back to Blossom Quarter to stay the night, since you’re not there, I’ll just go directly."

"Okay, take care on the road." Olivia said.

"Then you get some rest early."

Mia Ginger hung up the phone and glanced at Koa Jackson, a bit thoughtful.

"What’s up?" Koa Jackson drove without turning his head.

"There was a man’s cough on the phone, do you think it’s Lawyer Petal?" Mia Ginger was very curious.

"..." Koa Jackson glanced at her, "Why are you so gossipy?"

"Just curious."

"Curiosity killed the cat."

"... Dr. Jackson, you really lack conversational skills."

Mia Ginger didn’t want to talk to him anymore and looked out the window deep in thought.

——

Petal Family, Bedroom.

Olivia hung up the phone and rubbed her forehead.

Utterly frustrated.

She knew earlier that Denver Petal approached her because he was under constant pressure from his parents to get married,

but she never imagined that his parents would pressure him to this extent, it was simply... bizarre.

Ever since Denver brought her to meet his parents, they’ve been required to come home and stay three days a week, mostly on Friday, Saturday, and the weekend.

At the same time,

Denver’s parents are nice people, but when it comes to this matter, they can’t seem to let go.

After all—

Denver is nearing thirty, too handsome, and most of those around him are men.

The old lady is always suspicious of her youngest son.

And now, somehow, they’re in this situation.

She and Denver were lying on the same bed, and to top it off, there was a light purple nightgown placed on her bedside by the old lady when she came in, saying she dressed too plainly, and that it’s good for a woman to take the initiative. She also said her son is as dull as wood, and asked her to be more tolerant.

Simply put...

Olivia couldn’t describe her feelings.
