Can't Help Falling In Love

Soon, Mary took out a fancy breakfast. Kate hurried to the bedroom with her luggage. She wanted to take a shower first so that she could have more time to think. She couldn't tell the truth. They were just dating and hadn't seen their parents. Didn't she know that Brian's father was William?

Or her colleague who sent her back was Jacob, not Brian. She was with Jacob now.

Kate deleted this reason right away. It was easy to persuade her mother. But when it came to Brian, Brian would definitely be angry again, just like last time.

Kate thought about it and still couldn't come up with a good way to lie to her. The best way was to tell her that she was dating with Brian...

Kate sighed, opened her suitcase and took out some beautiful clothes. Looking at the traditional conservative clothes, she was in a cold sweat. Her luggage was packed with the help of Brian. That guy was really bossy.

She had to wear those sexy clothes in front of him. Why wasn't she allowed to wear them when she got home?

But his overbearing attitude didn't disgust her, on the contrary, it made her feel relaxed. She randomly picked a suit of clothes and went to the bathroom. Lying in the bathtub, she stretched herself comfortably. She had been feeling so uncomfortable these days that she even didn't dare to take a shower

She turned around and inadvertently saw herself in the mirror, the steaming mist in the mirror looming. She bowed her head hastily, in a terrible situation, and her body was full of somebody's marks.

'our CEO is not a fox, but a wolf, a hungry wolf!!! Kate thought resentfully and felt a little shy. She buried herself into the water to calm down.

"Kate, come out to have breakfast." Mary knocked on the door.

"Okay." Kate stretched her head out and gave her a simple response.

After Kate calmed down, she came up with the idea.

Dressed up and going out, Kate swallowed her saliva when she saw the full table of dishes. She quickly sat at the table and began to eat like crazy.

"Slow down. You like a dead meat. What if you can't get married?" Mary sighed with a loving smile.

"It doesn't matter. I come back to keep you company if I can't get married." Kate said with difficulty while stuffing food into her mouth.

"Oh, I almost forgot. Aunt Jasmine has a son and he has gone back in the Mid Autumn Festival. We will go to have a meal tomorrow and you can make friends with him," Mary said with a smile. Kate rolled her eyes at Mary. She just wanted her to go on a blind date with her again.

"I have a boyfriend." Kate said as she lowered her head to eat.

"Brian?" Mary raised her eyebrows.

Kate dared not to meet her mother's serious eyes, but she still nodded and replied: "yes."

Mary's eyes became cold. She knocked at the china bowl with chopsticks. With a glance at Kate, she trembled with fear.

"Broke up with him. Come with me to see Aunt Jasmine's son tomorrow." Putting away the chopsticks, Mary said indifferently.

Kate kept silent. She knew her mother well. The more calm she was, the more scary she was. Therefore, what she said in such a calm tone was the order to Kate.

"Kate, I know you won't let me down. Brian was a good kid, but marriage was not a matter of two people, but a matter of two families. Will you accept Juliet as your other mother? "Asked Mary. Kate lowered her head. After a long while, she raised her head and said: "Brian didn't live with them."

Mary threw her chopsticks on the table and raised her voice. She looked at Kate with a sneer and asked, "so what? They are family after all. Who are you? Do you think that Brian will be on your side?" Kate was speechless.

Mom was right. No matter what contradictions were there between Brian and the Li family, she would always be an outsider to them. Her surname was not Li, but Luo.

"Even if you don't marry in the rest of your life, I won't agree you to be together." Then Mary looked up at Kate and continued, "unless you break up with me and never come back home."

Mary tone was so serious that Kate got panicked.

Anyway, she would come back home.

Kate's mouth twitched. She was still very happy. However, the cold water dropped from her face and extinguished all her feelings.

"Let's eat." Mary picked up some food for Kate. Seeing that Kate was depressed, Mary didn't dare to say more harsh words to her.

After a long time, Mary sighed and said, "Kate, no matter how poor the people you find who can't meet my requirements, I will not object as long as you like him. But I don't agree you are with Brian because he is that man's son.'

Kate knew it earlier that her mother would say so, and she also knew that in the past ten years, her mother still couldn't forget William. That was why her mother ran at that time and was so angry that she ran back home suddenly.

"I'm full." Kate put down the bowl and chopsticks, stood up and went back to her bedroom.

Before leaving, Kate heard her mother's faint sigh.

Kate could only choose to ignore it.

Her happy mood at home was also disturbed by this matter. She should have thought about why her mother suddenly asked her to go back home. Her mother found that Brian was William's son, and was afraid that they would further develop.

But Mary didn't know it was too late

Kate was still wearing the coat that Brian had given her. She slowly took it off, folded it and put it aside. She never had the initiative, always passive.

This kind of feeling made her feel a little helpless, but she could not refute it, because that was her mother. She could ignore everything, but she couldn't ignore her mother's feelings.

Kate had been lying on the bed. Till the afternoon, Mary knocked on the door to come in.

"What a tragedy! I have arranged so many blind dates for you, but you just don't want them. Why do you have a crush on that man?" With these words, Mary sat beside Kate, who was reluctant to get out of the quilt.

"Are you dead? Get up and have dinner if you are still alive. " Mary poked the newly wrapped up Kate.

"Dead." Kate's muffled voice came out from the quilt.

Mary smiled, "You have another boyfriend, don't you? Where is Jacob? If you like him, you can marry him."

"Do you think I can marry whoever I want? He didn't like me." Kate replied.

"Who says he won't like you? I can tell from his eyes that he has feelings for you."

Kate curled up her lips and made a fool of herself to believe her mother. Even herself was not trustworthy, how could she trust her mother? All the bad genes of lying was inherited from their parents. "Mom, it's none of your business. If you want to have a grandson, I can find a man to have a child." After staying in the quilt for a long time, Kate couldn't stand the air anymore and stretched out her head. "Kate, I warn you, if you dare to do this, I will kick you out of my house!" Hearing that, Mary put her hand on Kate's ear and warned her fiercely.

"Ouch! Ouch What are you doing? My ears hurt! " Kate held Mary's hand and screamed.

Kate struggled to free herself from Mary's grip. She covered her aching ear and took a glum look at Mary. Humph! Even Brian would not pull her ears or beat her. But why did she beat and scold her as she liked? Was this woman really her mother?

Kate was suspicious.

"Get up and go shopping with me." Then, Mary pinched Kate's butt and pulled her out of bed.

Kate touched her painful butt and looked at Mary with dissatisfaction. "Didn't you say that we were going to have dinner?"

"I was just kidding," Mary then forced a smile and pushed Kate away. Kate, who was afraid of her mom, was about to roll down the stairs by her sides.

Today was Mid Autumn Festival, and a lot of people went to the vegetable market for groceries. Kate held a bag in her hand and silently followed Mary. She had almost forgotten all the aunts since she hadn't come back for so many years. When someone greeted her, she only smiled back politely.

"Kate, you're home! Your mother is so proud of you. I heard that you work for the Li group. What's your position? My daughter is also studying in Z city. She will graduate this year."

Kate gave the woman a forced smile. Before she could say anything, Mary said first, "I heard that my daughter lives a good life in Z city. Since your daughter lives in Z City, they can help each other." "Hmm, that's exactly what I think. Could Kate recommend her?" The woman giggled and looked at Kate.

Kate silently backed behind Mary and thought: 'forget it, forget it. I can't interfere in their conversation. I just want to say how powerful an ordinary girl like her can be.'.

"Kate, my son wants to develop the business in Z city. Could you please put in a good word for me and do me a favor?"

"That's right. My daughter is also capable, but we haven't met a respected person. Kate, you are the respected person in our family..."

Then, more and more men came out from nowhere. Kate was wearing a forced smile as cold sweat trickled down her forehead.

Kate was sure that her mother was flattering her indeed. Kate wanted to escape.

"Alright, alright. We are neighbors. This is not a big deal. Kate can be capable because of your help. " Mary continued to politely talk with them. Kate carried the basket and ran out of the crowd quickly.

People gathered around Mary to greet with each other, not noticing that the main character had already left.
