She thought of her parents.In their era, society's mindset was different. Everyone wanted a son to carry on the family line. Not having a son would invite ridicule, especially in poorer regions where this belief was deeply ingrained. Back then, her parents were often mocked by their relatives. But looking back now, her parents had found solace in each other. She was their daughter, but she rarely spent time with them.Professor Sandler had a son, but he still felt lonely, with no one to keep him company.Therefore, the happiness in one's old age doesn't depend on how many children one has, or whether they are sons or daughters, but on having a spouse who can grow old together, support each other, and keep each other company.If Professor Sandler's wife were still around, she would have been there to keep him company, and he wouldn't have been so lonely.Leaning on Jason's shoulder, she said, "I know you're busy, but you should spend more time with your parents. When people grow

"Okay." Vince looked like he wanted to say something, but Elise was already gone.Iris told Vince, "Vince, I have to go abroad for a while. You and Elise can stay here while I'm gone. I've also arranged for someone to find Rachel, so don't worry too much. Be good to Elise during this time. The baby is still young; his family can't break apart.""Okay." Vince seemed to have a lot to say to Iris. His eyes were full of gratitude. "Iris..."A grown man like him was surprisingly choking up. "Thank you, to you and your boyfriend.""Huh?" Iris asked, "How do you know that Jason's helping you find Rachel? Did he tell you?""What? He's the one helping us find Rachel? He didn't tell me. I want to thank him because he offered me a job," Vince said excitedly. "The salary is forty thousand dollars a year."Iris looked at Vince in astonishment.Vince grabbed Iris' shoulders. "I can't thank you enough. When my restaurant ran into trouble, it was you and your boyfriend who helped me too. And

Jason wrapped his arms around her shoulders. "What about fireworks?""Huh?" Iris turned to look at Jason. "Who would set off fireworks..."Before she could finish her sentence, a burst of fireworks exploded in the sky, illuminating the beautiful night with vibrant colors. Following that, an elegant arc streaked across the sky, bursting into a magnificent display of colors. One after another, fireworks lit up the sky, making the entire city shine."It's so beautiful," Iris gazed out the window, her eyes reflecting the colorful lights."Did you prepare this as well?" she asked.Jason asked, "Do you like it?"Of course, Donahue was also the one who came up with this idea.Iris nodded. She liked it. She really liked it. She really, really liked it."You're so cute." She suddenly felt touched by Jason's awkward romantic gestures.She leaned on Jason. "Thank you.""You've thanked me so many times today. Don't be so polite with me," Jason said.Iris didn't know why she said that.

Then his injury was worth it."Where's Mr. Just?" He instinctively glanced towards the door."He went to see the doctor to ask about your condition," Iris said.Samuel felt grateful. "I'm an orphan. I'm lucky Mr. Just took me under his wing. Oh, right. I heard from Mr. Just that you paid my hospital bills? How much was it? I'll pay you back," Samuel grabbed his phone.Iris declined. "It wasn't much. I only made the first payment; the rest was covered by Jason.""Thank you anyway." Samuel suddenly understood what Jason liked about Iris.It wasn't just her good looks.She had a kind heart too.Just then, Jason walked in.He stood by the bed. "The doctor said you just need rest. You'll be fine after a while.""Thank you, Mr. Just." Samuel had heard from the hospital staff that Jason had arranged for the best doctor to perform his surgery.He was also staying in a VIP single ward, with a professional caregiver looking after him."You should just focus on recovering in the hospi

"Huh? It's already so late, there's not much else we can do today. If you want to check out the temple, let's do it since I happen to be free now," Jason said."Okay," she replied eagerly.She then looked at him.Jason frowned slightly. "Why are you looking at me like that? Is there something on my face?"Iris withdrew her gaze. She just felt that Jason was too kind to her.He's spoiling her too much.She didn't have to worry about anything when she was with him.He also cared about her feelings and went along with whatever she said."Let's go," she said, pulling Jason along."By the way, did you not bring any casual clothes? You're always wearing formal clothes," Iris held his hand. "When we go to Fiji, can you not dress so formally?""Sure, but..." he leaned in, deliberately whispering in her ear, "you have to buy the clothes for me."The heat of his words fell directly on her sensitive earlobe.Iris instinctively shrank her head back. "Why should I buy them for you?"
