“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

    "Are you slow or what? Do you really think our daughter’s the one unwilling to take that step? It’s that Wilson guy—he’s the one holding back!" "That Joseph Wilson is honest to a fault. You can tell he's conservative and certainly not someone with a dominant personality," Madeline Castillo said, full of conviction. "Our daughter’s still a girl—she can’t be too forward. With both of them hesitating like this, things have dragged on to where they are now." "Don’t forget, every time we called before, it was always Joseph driving her home and then leaving right after." "Both of them are being reserved. He’s too proper, and she’s holding back." "Hmm... the more I think about it, the more that makes sense," Stanley Alvarez said, furrowing his brow. "Of course it makes sense. She’s my own flesh and blood—of course I understand her better than anyone," Madeline said with a hint of pride. "So... are we really letting them share a room tonight?" Stanley asked. "What else? Didn’t

    "Isn't that the truth? Remarkable—truly remarkable!" "Your master must have been an extraordinary person, raising you so well. That couldn't have been easy," Madeline Castillo said to Joseph, her admiration deepening. As a parent herself, she understood how much effort it took to raise a child. She had always been proud of raising Mason Alvarez and her brother into the people they were. But now, meeting Joseph for the first time, she felt a different kind of respect. "Uncle, Auntie, you're too kind," Joseph said modestly. "From now on, you're not alone anymore. This is your home, and we're your family," Stanley Alvarez said sincerely. "That's right. We're your family now. Mason is your family, too," Madeline added warmly. "Thank you, Uncle, Auntie," Joseph replied, warmth rising in his chest. To be honest, he had rarely felt anything resembling a true home. He had always regarded Alice as his family, and from her, he’d felt a kind of warmth he’d never known before. But t

    Stanley Alvarez finally snapped out of it after Madeline Castillo’s reminder and quickly poured a cup of tea for Joseph.“Here, here—have a seat and enjoy some tea, future son-in-law,” he said warmly.In just a short span of time, Joseph’s title had shifted from “Mr. Wilson” to “Joseph,” and now to “future son-in-law.” The progression was impressively swift.“Thank you, Uncle,” Joseph said as he accepted the tea.“Seriously, Mom, Dad, you don’t need to be so formal with Mr. Wilson,” Mason Alvarez sighed as she watched her parents bustling around.“What do you mean, formal? You two work so hard outside. Now that you’re home, as your elders, it’s only right that we take care of you,” Madeline replied matter-of-factly. “Future son-in-law, take a seat and relax. Mason, keep him company. I’ll head to the kitchen and get lunch ready—it won’t take long.”With that, she disappeared into the kitchen.“I’ll help out too. You two must be starving. Lunch will be ready in no time,” Stanley added a

    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

    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
