Chapter 1201 What’s Your Relationship?
Jamarion fell asleep and slept soundly. In his beloved girl’s home, what came into his view were her favorite decorations and the bedding she chose. He fell asleep almost as soon as he lay down on the bed.
After hustle and bustle in Ascana and a long flight, he could finally have a sound sleep.
He naturally woke up the next day and found that Alana had left home.
Alana left him a note on the dining table, “I’m going to work. You should take a good rest before you leave. There’s breakfast in the kitchen.”
The girl’s handwriting was as gentle and touching as she was. Jamarion’s lips curved into a happy and satisfied smile uncontrollably.
After eating the breakfast Alana had left for him and dressing up, he took a taxi home with his luggage.
“You, you –”
After Nina opened the door and saw her son standing outside, she was so astonished that she lost her tongue.
Jamarion explained with a faint smile, “I came back by flight last night and slept at … Alana’s.”
Jamarion blushed while telling the truth.
“My goodness!” Nina covered her mouth and exclaimed, “Your relationship is going so fast?”
Jamarion said helplessly, “Mom, you are overthinking it. I yearned to see her, so I went to her place after arriving. And since it was late at night, she let me stay for a rest.”
“Explanation proves it’s fishier.” Nina teased her son and led him into the house at the same time. Cameron, who was about to leave for the office, glanced at his son and silently helped bring in his son’s luggage.
“I’ll go to the office first,” he said.
Glaring at Cameron, Nina said, “Do you have to? Our son just arrived home today. Couldn’t you stay home with him?”
Cameron glanced at his son, “Does he need my company?”
Though he said that, he walked back obediently and sent a message to his assistant, saying that he would not go to the office today.
He didn’t dare disobey his dear wife’s order.
She was the one he tried everything to marry, so he would cherish and pamper her.
Nina hummed in satisfaction, and then asked her son, “Have you eaten breakfast yet?”
Her son blushed, “Yes.”
Nina got it instantly. Alana probably saved some breakfast for him.
Nina was one hundred percent willing to have Alana be her future daughter-in-law. Alana’s character was like Emelia’s. Both of them were very gentle and caring, and her son would be happy.
Of course, she was confident that her son was also caring. Both were excellent and perfect, and being together would be a win-win for them.
“Then do you need to sleep and rest?” Nina asked.
“No need, I have a good sleep last night. Now I am very awake. I’ll go upstairs to unpack my luggage first and come down later to chat with you,” Jamarion said.
“Okay,” The couple responded.
As soon as her son disappeared at the staircase, Nina immediately threw herself into Cameron’s arms and happily punched him, “Ah, did you hear that? The first thing our son did when he returned late at night was to meet Alana, and Alana took him in. I feel that they’re very likely to be together!”
“Alana must be in love with Jamarion. Otherwise, she would not let him enter her house at midnight.”
“It’s not like that Jamarion has nowhere to go. If she disliked him, she would have asked him to leave.”
With an insatiable appetite for her son’s gossip, Nina tried to confirm Alana’s feelings for Jamarion.
Cameron smiled dotingly as he embraced Nina in his arms, thinking, ‘My dear wife is so simple-minded. If it was some other woman, she would be unsatisfied with her son who went to another woman instead of going home to her first.’
But Nina showed no satisfaction. Instead, she supported her son to woo his love.
She was so good. Cameron believed that she would be a good mother-in-law in the future whether her son’s wife was Alana or not.
He smiled and said, “Why do I feel you are more excited than your son?”
Nina sighed in his arms and said, “Well, I used to worry that our ‘nerdy’ son could not find a boyfriend.”
“He’s been soberer and more mature than others since he was a kid. He was never innocent and happy like other children, and he focused on his studies all day, so I suspected that he never thought of being in a relationship.”
“He is doing scientific research. I was afraid that his life was all about scientific research. But I never thought he would fall in love so early.”
Nina laughed as she said, “He’s like me in this aspect.”
“No, I think he’s more like me.” Cameron hugging her expressed his disagreement, “As you know, I pursue the girl as soon as I have a crush on her.”
Nina wouldn’t haggle over it with him, since it didn’t matter at all. It was great that her son could be in love.
Alana went to the office later than usual, and Julian expressed his concern, “Is there something going on today?”
He knew Alana well. She had never been late and even arrived early since her first day at work, but she was late today.
Julian could not help but express his concern. Did she fail to sleep well last night? Or did she encounter something on the way here?
“I woke up a bit late this morning and happened to run into a traffic jam,” Alana explained in a somewhat guilty manner.
Actually, it was because she prepared breakfast for two in the morning and wrote a note to Jamarion. Then she hesitated about whether to wake him up at home for some time.
Julian stared at his daughter’s averted eyes for a few seconds and then suddenly asked, “I heard that Jamarion is returning home today. Do you plan to have a welcome dinner for him?”
Julian started to talk about Jamarion, which made Alana, who was a bit guilty, unable to follow his thought. It took her a while to say, “Yes, Benedict and Alaric will arrange it.”
She told the truth. But she hid the fact that Jamarion had returned last night.
Julian looked at her again and said nothing more about it but changed the subject to the work she had to do today.
After leaving her father’s office, Alana breathed a long sigh of relief. She felt bad to lie with guilt, as she was not a good liar.Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
It wasn’t that she wasn’t good at hiding her emotion. She could be stony-faced when facing other people in the business circle, but the person she was lying to was her father, so it was hard for her not to feel guilty.
She wondered if she should tell her parents about her relationship with Jamarion, as she didn’t want to hide it anymore.
But then she thought, ‘What was my relationship with Jamarion?’
They were just friends now, though they agreed on marrying each other in a few years.
If she told her father, he would be furious.
