Chapter 29: Red Dragon Tattoo
Yera contemplated if she should inform Xander about the dinner that her team had arranged for her, as her welcoming party this evening.
In the end, she decided to tell him because she felt a strong urge to do it and she couldn’t fight it.
Xander was in a meeting for their hospital’s annual fundraising event when his mobile phone beeped.
His eyes widened when he saw whom the message was from, and he naturally broke into a smile.
[ From: My Darling.
Will have dinner with the team as a welcoming party later. Please inform Father-in-law that I won’t make it to dinner. Thanks. ]
’Did she just make me a messenger to relay her message to Dad?’ He complained. But that simple text message from Yera had managed to make his day. The fact that she told him about the dinner party meant that Yera had thought of him somehow. It was a good progress.
As soon as the meeting ended and everyone was dismissed, Xander looked at assistant Ron and said, "They will have a welcoming party for Yera tonight. Find out where it is."
In all actuality, Xander was worried. It wouldn’t be much of a welcoming party if there was no alcohol involved. And having been introduced to his wife’s other personality when she transformed into the drunken version of herself, he was afraid. Very afraid...
"Sir, I actually received a message from Dr. Gong earlier. He has invited you to the dinner party as well... But you were still in the meeting, so I didn’t..." Assistant Ron tried to explain, but got nervous when he saw his boss staring at him with a crumpled face.
"Ron... My wife always comes first... Do you want your yearly bonus to be cut by half?" Xander asked in a threatening voice.
