"You speak fluent Mandarin, madam," the cab driver was happy to hear a foreigner speak Mandarin fluently.
"My dad is Chinese, he grew up here in Shanghai," she answered.

Moriah was flustered and her heart beat began to pick up speed. The thundering of her heart became audible to her hearing despite the noises in the hall. Jianyu and Anastacia maintained their calm demeanour and gave a warm smile to their daughter. Moriah need not to say a word, they knew how tense she was though she didn’t show an outward sign of her uneasiness. Mr. Wang walked ahead of them, followed by Mrs. Wang with Moriah. They walked like they were mother and daughter. Some of the guests looked at them and speculated. Jianyu and Anastacia were behind Mrs. Wang and Moriah, following them towards the study. The tension within Moriah was slightly alleviated once entering the huge, classic, and the elegant study room. Nevertheless, the tension built up again to an even greater measure when she spotted Dylan seated on the couch. As they were approaching Dylan, he stood up and bowed. “Good evening, Uncle and Aunty.” he greeted Jianyu and Anastacia. Although surprised at how Dylan

“You were right, admiration is not enough to sustain a marriage,” Mr Wang said, nevertheless, Mrs Wang wanted to protest, but Mr Wang patted her hand softly and shook his head, a gesture that she should keep her mouth shut. “You are also a remarkable woman, however, you and Dylan are not made for each other. Thank you for taking the courage to knock some sense into us and help us see reasons,” Mr Wang smiled. Moriah and Anastacia breathed a sigh of relief while Jianyu gave a faint smile. “We won’t pursue the marriage,” Mr Wang finally said what Moriah and her parents wanted to hear. “Thank you, Mr Wang,” Moriah couldn’t stop her joy spilling over. She was smiling from ear to ear. She can’t wait to tell Ethan. This news will give him peace. Ethan was hesitant to leave her and persuaded her to come back to London with him even as she sent him to the airport.

Cameron saw Hazel entering Ethan's office and immediately followed her. He quickly clamped his hand over her mouth and pulled her out of the room before she could say a word and ruin the couple’s moment. He didn't want the couple interrupted. Ethan had been grouchy because his wife didn't want to talk to him. Now that she answered the call and was talking to him, Ethan would be definitely furious if they were interrupted. Ethan saw what Cameron did, he sauntered towards the door and locked it so no one would disturb him. "I just discovered that I have married a beautiful and witty woman," Ethan chuckled, went back to his desk and sat on his chair. "Where are you now?" Moriah asked. "I'm at my office," Ethan answered.

I knew nothing about it,” he stopped and thought for a while. “I only want to marry now because my mom wants me to marry and have children.” he answered with all honesty because he felt close to the Chens and trusted them. “May I ask something?” Jiany spoke after listening to Dylan. “Yes, uncle,” Dylan replied. “What do you think about divorce?” Jianyu asked Dylan, watching his reaction to his question. A frown appeared on his face, forming creases between his eyebrows. It didn’t take him long to understand Jianyu’s point.“Thank you, uncle and aunty for enlightening me,” he smiled from ear to ear.
