Chapter 932 - 006 I can just stay at a hotel_2
Michael Auclair woke up, drank some water, and then went back to sleep, content.
The next day, he woke up at seven o’clock. Breakfast was served before eight at home, and he planned to pick Avery up. However, as he came downstairs, he saw his parents with very bad complexions. Usually, the kitchen would already be bustling with activity, but today it was silent.
"Dad, you’re up so early too? Mom, haven’t started cooking breakfast yet, eh? What do you want to eat? I’ll buy it and bring it back for Avery and me," Michael spoke to his parents with a smile.
"Michael, come here first. We have something to ask you," Mrs. Auclair called out in a low voice, devoid of any mood, worried the neighbors might overhear because of the poor sound insulation on their side.
Yesterday, Avery had dragged her suitcase out, and it was likely that the neighbors had already seen her. Their family’s issues had probably become the joke of the residential area early on.
"What do you want to ask me about? I still need to go pick up Avery," Michael walked over, seeing his parents this serious for the first time during a conversation.
With a ’slap,’ Mr. Auclair slammed his palm on the table, "I’m asking you, this Avery Graham you brought, did you pay her to deceive us, and she’s not really your girlfriend at all, did you hire her just to put our minds at ease?"
It was a good thing they hadn’t given any money to their future daughter-in-law yet. Still, it was all prepared in advance, including gold jewelry and such, with the idea of presenting it to them on the last night of their stay.
But before they could present it, such a problem cropped up on the very first night.
"Pfft—" Michael was stunned for a moment, then burst out laughing, "Mom and Dad, did someone tell you something? Or have you watched too much TV? Others might do that, but why would your son? Do I need to find a fake girlfriend to deceive you?"
