Chapter 377
Kate accepted the phone reluctantly. She stared at Dahlia, who gave her an encouraging smile, which was more like pressure to Kate.
She wasn’t really the lovey-dovey person. She could encourage but not act spoiled to her boyfriend, especially not when her future mother-in-law was in front of her.
"I’ll call her, but can I go somewhere a bit more private?" Kate asked. Her cheeks reddened as she got even more embarrassed. "I’m not used to talking with him when there’s someone around."
"Oho~ things must’ve heated up between you two," Dahlia chuckled. She pointed at the empty bedroom near them and said, "You can talk to him inside that guest room. I’ll be waiting here, okay?"
"Okay, thanks, Dahlia."
Dahlia helped Kate unlock her phone, and the shy woman entered the guest room and hurriedly locked it.
Dahlia stared at the door and chuckled again, "What a cute couple. They are surely making me envious."
Dahlia leaned on the sofa and stared at the window. It was the same mundane routine she did in that mental hospital too.
She had grown to enjoy this idle activity because she had nothing going on in her life. Other than protecting her small family, Dahlia had no motivation in life.
She was a shell of her former, glorious self.
"Isn’t that right, husband?" Dahlia smiled as she talked to herself. "I remember how romantic you were when we got married. You were dashing and whipped for me. I couldn’t help falling into your embrace and accepted your proposal."
