Slept together? Why told her that? Finnley was in shock.

“Mrs. Saunders, what are you talking about?” Finnley wanted to justify himself, “I...”

“Bullshit! You didn’t see me waiting for you here just now?" Shirley said, “You think that because you work for Ivan Marsh, you can play all the women in the world in your hands? How dare you deny it!"

Finnley looked into her eyes and understood how she felt, "Mrs. Saunders, there is really nothing between Mya and I.”

"You know what you did," Shirley was pissed, "I just want you to be a responsible man who dares to admit it, at least.”

“But won't I be lying if I admitted something I never did?” Finnley was still gentle.

Their eyes met and Shirley could see the sincerity in his eyes. “I will ask you one more time, Finnley Russell. What's your relationship with Mya and where are you now? Tell me the truth if you want to keep being with her.”

Finnley was confused. What was going on here?

Outside the cafe, Linda did not leave, but found a place to hide and observed them inside.

Finnley told everything to Shirley honestly.

It was really simple.

On that night Mya lost her key, he kindly took her in.

She slept in the bed, and he took the sofa.

It was that simple!

After listening to his words, Shirley was stunned. She was a smart woman, which was why she could marry Clarence.

Finnley’s words were coherent, patient and serious.

Shirley observed his micro-expressions and found that he didn't seem to be lying. But the truth was beyond her imagination

However, they went shopping in the supermarket together. They were both single, was there really nothing between the two of them?

"Mrs. Saunders, believe it or not,” Finnley said. "At least for now, I'm not dating Mya.”

"What do you mean? You might date her in the future?" Shirley asked, "Do you like my daughter?”

Finnley didn't deny it, "Of course.”

"Well, you're honest at last." Shirley got mixed feelings.

“I've always been honest," Finnley said, "Mya is frank and cute, and she is a talented cartoonist, I guess there are few people who dislike her.”

"Stop with all those sweet words. Let me ask you, how old are you?" “I'm 26.”

“You are six years older than her,” Shirley said, as a mother, "Mya is my only daughter, I don't want her to start a relationship with someone who might hurt her. Will you ever pursue her someday?”

Finnley didn't know how to answer, "I will let fate decide.”

“You seem passive.”

Finnley didn’t answer.

Shirley thought that he might not like Mya that much. It might simply be a crush.

And Mya didn't seem to have feelings for him either.

“That will be the best. Please keep a distance from her from now on, you both don't want to stuck in anything, I suppose,” Shirley said, "Thank you for letting her stay in your place. She will move back home from today on.”

Finnley felt at a loss.

“You should go to work now. Thank you for your time.”

Finnley looked into her eyes. “Mrs. Saunders, bye.” He bowed and left. Looking at his back, Shirley was lost in thought. Finnley seemed like a nice guy, but Mya was too young to be in love.

Moreover, as a mother, she didn’t want her daughter to fall in love so soon.

As she stood up, Linda walked in towards her.

Shirley didn't walk away but looked at her.

“Mrs. Saunders, there's something I figured I should tell you,” Linda stood by the table and smiled, “Finnley has a fiancée.”
