Chapter 84 Kimberly texted Olivia and Vincent before going to bed on Friday night. For Olivia, she
reminded her to pay attention to safety on the road. The audit for recent projects was not that urgent,
and the time was relatively ample. Considering that Olivia had not spent time with her family for a long
time, Kimberly suggested she take the opportunity to stay home longer. As for Vincent, she wrote
concisely: [Good luck!] Finally, the Saturday that Vincent had been looking forward to had arrived. Early
in the morning, he put on his best clothes. The wild Maserati, the noble Rolls-Royce, the coquettish
Porsche, the calm Bentley, and rows of luxury cars were ready in the garage, waiting for their owner’s
call. Like most successful men, Vincent loved cars and always rewarded himself with luxury cars. That
calm Bentley was the reward he gave himself after winning the lawsuit against Christopher last time.
Whenever he was depressed, he would admire the cars in the garage. In his eyes, they seemed to
have vitality and could quickly accumulate energy for him when his spirit was low. Vincent walked
around the garage. The first one he had his eyes on was the wild Maserati, but soon he rejected the
idea himself. It was not that the car was not good. Every car there was his favorite. It just occurred to
him that the car was too wild and lacked steadiness. When a family chose a son-in-law to marry their
daughter, the first thing to consider had to be whether the man was steady and worthy of lifelong
entrustment. Although the car was only a means of transportation, it could also show the quality of its
owner. Finally, he fixed his gaze on the calm Bentley. One reason for choosing that car was that it was
earned by Olivia rather than himself. The significance was unmatched by other cars. At the same time,
the style of the car certainly would fit the widely recognized image of a satisfying son-in-law. Appearing
calm, low-key, and reserved, not only could the car give people a comfortable sense of affinity but also Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.
make them feel more secure. Chapter 84 Although Olivia said there was no need to prepare anything,
Vincent had made a big purchase yesterday, and his trunk was already full. He could not just waste the
rare opportunity. Some people said that as long as one had money, shopping was not a problem. In the
past, Vincent had thought so, too. But after yesterday’s exhausting shopping, he no longer did. In the
past, he only bought things for himself or someone he knew well. With a specific. goal, he would head
straight to the shopping mall, and there would be no issue as long as he went for the high-end ones.
But now, it was as if he were finding a needle in a haystack. He had no idea what the Salter family
liked, and he could only guess and use Google. He had searched the Internet for what the in-laws liked
best. He got a variety of answers, and a ton of dazzling recommended products flooded his phone
screen. In the end, he had no choice but to seek help from his elder brothers in the group chat, Protect
Sis PLUS, of which Kimberly was not a member. Vincent: [Everyone, I’m going to meet my future
father-in-law and mother-in-law tomorrow.] He wanted to insert a new line but accidentally hit the send
key. Before he could type the second sentence, a commotion had arisen in the group. Simon: [Good
job. Who is the lady?] Edward: [I didn’t expect you to be the first among the five of us to be out of
bachelorhood.] Samuel: [When are you bringing her to meet us?] Vincent did not have time to read
those replies and hurriedly sent his remaining text. Vincent: [What shall I bring for the first visit?] After
that, he did not forget to add a frustrated emoji. Indeed, the wisdom of the masses exceeded that of the
wisest individual. Everyone brainstormed and earnestly offered their suggestions. David: [Famous
tobacco and alcohol are the most basic. Bring the best cigarettes and wine from your home.] Samuel:
[Your mother-in-law is also a woman. She naturally loves skincare and healthcare products.] Chapter
84 Simon: [That’s right. Supplements can’t go wrong.] Edward: [Bring coffee beans. Your father-in-law
probably likes coffee. Or, how about you be more generous and offer your new coffee set from the 18th
century?] Upon reading Edward’s suggestion, Vincent could not help but grumble. He sent a crying
emoji and texted: [Kimberly has swindled the coffee set.] Then, the other four people sent a snickering
emoji in unison. If Kimberly had not acted fast, Vincent might actually send the coffee set to Norham,
after hearing Edward’s suggestion. At that moment, David texted again: [Alright, stop chatting here.
Hurry up to buy those things we mentioned just now. Add more as you see fit. It should be enough.]
Vincent felt reassured by David’s words. After that, he had gone shopping in a hurry, and that was how
the trunk was filled up by today. It looked like he was going to meet the parents and propose to the
daughter. After everything was done, Vincent called Olivia. He told her that he would be at her house in
half an hour and asked her to get ready quickly so that they could set off early. It was a three-hour drive
from Dellmoor to Norham.. Despite having prepared many gifts, Vincent planned to shop around in
Norham again. with Olivia to add some more things to her family’s liking. Better safe than sorry. Olivia
was an efficient and self-disciplined person, and she seldom slept in. She had woken up early and
finished her morning run. Then, she took a shower, changed into a floral dress, and put on beautiful
light makeup. If Benedict and Madeline saw her sloven appearance, they might mistakenly think she
did not live a good life and might not let her live on her own again. Therefore, Olivia had to return home
in her best condition. She did not expect that Vincent would call her so carly and would arrive in half an
hour. She used that time to check roughly the luggage she had packed last night. Then, she called
Kimberly and said, “Kim, I’m leaving soon. When I get back, I’ll bring you Norham’s pickles you’ve been
craving for.” Like Olivia, Kimberly loved Norham’s pickles. The pickles could also be bought in
Dellmoor, but both of them thought it was not as tasty. % Π Their favorite was a small
shop owned by an old lady next to the university, which they used to visit now and then to satisfy their
cravings.
