"Ms. Alvarez, are you alright?" Joseph asked with concern."I'm okay, maybe just a little lightheaded." Mason Alvarez rubbed her forehead and let out a soft breath."Come on, let me walk you home," Joseph said again.Given how unsteady Mason was on her feet, Joseph couldn’t risk leaving her alone. If anything happened, he wouldn’t be able to forgive himself."By the way, Mr. Wilson, what were you whispering about with Director Myers and Deputy Director Gray earlier?" Mason asked as they walked along."Nothing much, just some personal matters," Joseph replied with a smile."You and them having personal matters? That’s a surprise. Honestly, I didn’t expect Myers to come over and toast with you."Mason glanced at him, curiosity in her eyes."Myers might be annoying at times, but he’s not the same as Charles Martin." "In the university, we’re competitors—sometimes even adversaries—but that’s mostly academic. It’s about different viewpoints, not differences in principles or int

"What I mean is... this isn't right!" Joseph tried to explain, albeit awkwardly."Not right? Then what would make it right?" Mason Alvarez countered, clearly not planning to let him off the hook."I don’t know. But I should go now." Joseph tried to pull away from Mason’s grasp."No!" She held on tightly, her arms locked around his neck."What are you doing?" Joseph sighed, already feeling the headache coming on."I have something to tell you." Mason’s tone turned mysterious, her grip tightening as if afraid he’d flee."If you have something to say, just say it. But could you let go of me first?" Joseph asked."Can’t I say it like this?" Mason said, her voice soft and sultry, her face now dangerously close to his. Joseph could feel her warm breath brushing against his skin."You..." Joseph was momentarily at a loss. Under the faint ambient light, Mason's features were stunning, her scent intoxicating. It was overwhelming.With a gentle tug, Mason collapsed back onto t

"Something important? What important thing?" Mason Alvarez asked instinctively, her mind not quite catching up."You silly girl, have you already forgotten? We were just talking about Mr. Wilson—about something very important concerning him." Her mother spoke in a coaxing tone."Oh, that!" Mason finally caught on."Exactly! So, when are you bringing Mr. Wilson home to meet us? We want to see our future son-in-law." Her father grinned from ear to ear."It's just the first day of break. Why are you two in such a rush? I already promised you, didn’t I? I’ll bring him back." Mason replied, sounding a little impatient."You said as soon as break starts—you'd bring him. Well, break starts today. You’re not planning to go back on your word, are you?" Her mother looked slightly wounded."Your mother’s not been feeling well lately. She’s getting older, and her one wish is to meet her future son-in-law. Is that too much to ask?" Her father chimed in, putting on a dramatic tone."O

"How does it feel? I mean the feeling!"Alice froze for a moment, not immediately catching on. But when she followed Joseph’s train of thought, her cheeks flushed red in an instant. What came to mind were those moments when she had felt Joseph’s growing strength—and not just physically."So?" Joseph pressed with a teasing smile. "How does it feel?""I don’t know," Alice muttered, squatting down and covering her glowing cheeks with both hands. Embarrassed beyond measure, she wished she could disappear into the floor.This Joseph was getting more and more mischievous. Even the way he spoke was full of traps."I’m not talking to you anymore. I'm going to make breakfast," she huffed and turned to leave.Just then, footsteps echoed outside."Tsk tsk tsk, I knew you two would be here," a voice drawled. "Exercising first thing in the morning—really into staying fit, huh?""Daytime workouts are nice, but night exercises are even more intense."It was none other than Mason Alvarez.She and Ali

Seeing Alice’s adorable expression, Joseph couldn’t resist leaning down to give her a quick kiss on the lips.“I’m going in now. You don’t need to come upstairs. Hurry and head back—the old lady said she wants to go shopping for all sorts of random stuff this afternoon.”“After all, I’m bringing my boyfriend home. Gotta commit to the role, right?” Alice said with a satisfied smile.“Alright then, go on in.” Joseph affectionately ruffled her soft hair.Alice nodded, stepped out of the car, and stood by the roadside, waving goodbye as Joseph’s car drove off. Only when it disappeared from view did she turn and head upstairs.Soon after, Molly opened the door.“Aunt Molly, has my dad arrived yet?” Alice asked with a smile.“Not yet. His flight’s been delayed a bit,” Molly replied. “I offered to pick him up at the airport, but he said no need. Once he gets here, we’ll all head over to your grandfather’s villa together.”She ushered Alice inside with a warm smile.“Alice!” Leah came running

"All done. This is what I’m wearing today."Mason Alvarez looked quite pleased with herself. She had not only changed into a stylish outfit, but had also taken the time to apply a light touch of makeup.She was already blessed with stunning looks, and a bit of makeup only made her all the more dazzling.Not long after, the two of them got in the car and headed toward New Century Plaza in Nova City."By the way, Professor Wilson, you still haven’t told me what you said to Director Myers last night!" Mason said, suddenly remembering."I told him I could cure his hair loss," Joseph replied casually while driving."Pfft!"Mason nearly choked with laughter."And he didn’t start yelling at you on the spot?"She was puzzled. Joseph had teased Lincoln Myers about his bald head more than once, and each time, it had nearly driven the man into a rage. Why not this time?"Because I was being serious. I really can cure his baldness."Joseph glanced at her as he spoke."And he believed you?" Mason

“The hobby they share—food.”“My dad and mom are both absolute foodies. With your cooking skills, you don’t need to buy anything at all. Just whip up a simple meal, and they’ll be completely won over.”Mason Alvarez explained with a grin.“So that’s what it is.” Joseph nodded, suddenly understanding.“What did you think it was?” Mason gave him an odd look.“Nothing in particular,” Joseph coughed lightly.“They also love the idea of having grandkids. That’s another shared interest. Of course, that only happens if you have the... ability for it.”Her eyes sparkled with mischief as she glanced at Joseph.“That sounds... a little weird,” Joseph said, scratching his head.“What’s weird about it?” Mason asked.“It’s not about ability—it’s about... willingness,” Joseph defended himself.“Men, when they’re young, love to boast—things like ‘I’ll leave you unable to get out of bed.’ But once they get older, it turns into, ‘Not tonight,’ or ‘I’m tired,’ or ‘Work was exhausting today.’” Mason rol

“Thank you for running around on my behalf. I feel like I’ve troubled you quite a bit.”Mason Alvarez sounded a little embarrassed.“Didn’t I promise you I’d help with this?” Joseph replied with a light smile.“You did, but when things actually come up and I really need your help, I still feel a bit guilty about it.”“No need to feel that way. If I gave you my word, then it’s something I should follow through on.”“I’ve been thinking about how I should repay you,” Mason said, gazing out the window as if lost in thought.“It’s not a big deal. No need to repay me,” Joseph said casually.“No—it is a big deal. I have to repay you.”She turned to him, eyes firm with determination.“You already have. The clothes you bought me—that counts.”Joseph tried to wave it off.“Please, clothes? You could easily afford them yourself. That amount of money means nothing to you. You’re not short on cash.”Mason shook her head again.“Alright then...” Joseph gave a small sigh, feeling a bit helpless. Why

After arriving at the villa, Joseph put together a simple dinner. Once they'd eaten, he tidied up briefly before heading back to Mason Alvarez's home.It had to be said—Mason Alvarez had quite a lot of things to bring home. The two of them were busy until late at night before finally wrapping things up.Perhaps it was the exhaustion from the day's hustle, but Mason Alvarez was unusually well-behaved that night. Once everything was done, she headed straight to bed without a fuss.By around nine the next morning, they were already on their way to Mountain City."Ms. Alvarez, is there anything I should be careful about when meeting your parents?" Joseph asked as he drove."Careful about?" Mason Alvarez blinked, seeming to think for a moment before replying, "Not really.""It's actually quite simple. Just act close—don’t let anything slip, and we’ll be fine.""That's it?" Joseph raised an eyebrow, surprised."Yeah, just act like we’re close.""Mr. Wilson, are you nervous?" Mason Alvarez l

The luxury car slowly pulled up and came to a stop on the side of the road.Stanley Alvarez and Madeline Castillo took a closer look—and instantly, their faces lit up with joy.“It’s our daughter! It’s our daughter!”Overcome with excitement, they rushed forward to greet her.“Dad, Mom! Don’t tell me you’ve been standing out here waiting for us?” Mason Alvarez stepped out of the car with a helpless smile.“Hello, Uncle. Hello, Auntie,” Joseph greeted politely as he got out as well.“Good, good, very good! What a fine young man!” Stanley Alvarez beamed, stepping forward to shake Joseph’s hand enthusiastically.“What do you mean, young man? He’s Mr. Wilson, isn’t he?” Madeline Castillo scolded her husband lightly before quickly turning toward Joseph with a bright smile. “So you’re Mr. Wilson, Mason’s boyfriend? I’m Mason’s mother, Madeline Castillo. Welcome to our home!”“Thank you, Auntie. I’m Joseph, Ms. Alvarez’s boyfriend,” Joseph replied, glancing at Mason with a slightly awkward e
