Chapter 18 Promised to Be Issac Shaw’s Girlfriend
“Oh, yes.”
Issac Shaw suddenly realized something. He took off his coat, sunglasses, and fixed his short hair, which had been cleaned and dried, in front of the rearview mirror of the car to make the shape more ordinary. Then he raised his eyebrows and looked at Vivian. “How about this?”
“Not bad.”
“Okay, let’s go.” As spoke, he opened the car door and carried four kinds of nutrition products.
“Why are you carrying things?”
Vivian was about to take him to the supermarket to buy a fruit basket and didn’t expect that he had prepared something.
“When a boyfriend sees his future mother-in-law, he doesn’t bring anything. It’s unreasonable.”
Issac raised his eyebrows and smiled at her.
“Okay. Then I’ll transfer the money to you later.”
“It’s nothing.”
They entered St. Hospital together. On the way, Issac asked about Vivian’s adoptive parents and took the opportunity to ask about her birthday.
To his words, it is only not to give the game away in front of her mother, but in fact, he just wanted to know more about her.
Although everyone thought that Vivian was a little ugly, Issac felt that she was real. She was frank and did not flatter him.
She was unique.
On the 21st floor of the inpatient department, Vivian took Issac into the ward. “Mom, I’m here to deliver you dinner.”
Issac followed her in. When he saw Jenny, he restrained his playful manner as a rich playboy and smiled politely at her. “Auntie, my name is Issac. I’m Vivian’s boyfriend. I just came back from a business trip and had to came to see you till now. Auntie, please don’t be angry.”
Jenny Doyle looked at Issac , who was wearing a white shirt, suit pants, short black hair, and a handsome and clean face.
“Oh, come on, why are you taking things? Come, put it down, sit for a while.”
Jenny pointed to the sofa and asked Issac to sit down, while she sat next to him. “Your name is Issac, isn’t it?”
“Yes, Auntie.”
In daily life, Issac always looked like a playboy. Sitting on the sofa, he habitually crossed his legs and put his hands on the back of the sofa, looking like a boss.
But this time in front of Jenny, he sat upright and restrained the ruffian’s look on his face, as if he had changed into another person.
“You look so handsome and have a good temperament. Why do you like my daughter? You must be my daughter’s fake boyfriend, right?”
She was indeed the mother who had raised Vivian that had seen through everything at a glance.
Vivian’s heart skipped a beat. She was worried about Issac’s performance.
“I don’t like to listen to Auntie’s words. I, Issac, never judge people by their appearance. Although Vivian looks ordinary, she is kind-hearted. I like her very much.”
“Really?”
“Of course.”
“Have you decided when to get married?”
Jenny’s thoughts were jumping. It’s no idea whether if she was really worried that Vivian wouldn’t be able to get married, or just trying to find out Issac’s true identity by surprise.
“Oh, Mom, it’s the first time you’ve met Issac. How can you ask him this question?” Vivian was speechless.
“Shut up. I’m talking to Issac.”
Jenny chided.
Issac glanced at Vivian. He couldn’t help rubbing his hands together, feeling a little nervous.
This kind of feeling seemed to have not happened for many years.
He smiled politely and said, “Auntie, I need to discuss the marriage with Vivian. This kind of thing can’t be rushed.”
“All right, stop acting.”
Jenny patted Issac on the shoulder. “Auntie can tell that my daughter’s ugly appearance is not worthy of you.”Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
The boy in front of her was handsome. Although he wore ordinary clothes, there was a kind of temperament in his bones. It was obvious that he was not an ordinary person.
“Mom…”
Vivian wanted to cry. She didn’t expect her adoptive mother to see through the truth.
“All right.”
Issac shrugged helplessly and sighed. “Since you have seen through it, I won’t pretend anymore.”
He stood up and walked toward Vivian.
Just as Vivian was about to scold, he suddenly stopped in front of her and said, “Since Auntie is here today, I will express my love for you again. Vivian, I’ve liked you for a long time. Can you be my girlfriend? Although I don’t seem reliable, I will prove to you with practical actions that I am worthy of your trust.”
Vivian’s eyes widened. She was stunned by the sudden reversal.
F*ck, what is Issac doing?
Just as she was in a daze, Issac suddenly winked at her and signaled her with his eyes.
She realized that this guy was still acting!
“Ah? I… I…”
Vivian cleverly cooperated. “I just asked you to pretend to be my boyfriend. Issac, don’t do this. We’re really not suitable.”
“Whether it’s appropriate or not, we’ll know after getting along with each other. I, Issac, really don’t judge a person by her appearance. I hope you can give me a chance in front of auntie today.”
“Forget it, we can only be friends. I don’t deserve you.”
Issac grabbed her hand and suddenly got down on one knee. He took out a square brocade box from his trousers pocket and said, “I’ve seen enough of all the good-looking leather bags. But you’re different. Although you’re not beautiful enough, you’re kind and hard-working. You’re a rare good girl. Vivian, would you be my girlfriend?”
His sudden move was matched with bringing a brocade box. There was a delicate necklace lying in it. The pendant of Four Leaf Grass was very beautiful.
His words seemed to come from the bottom of his heart, and even his eyes were so sincere.
If Issac hadn’t winked at her just now, Vivian would have thought that he was really expressing his love for her.
This acting skill was not inferior to that of a young actor at all.
“Wow, there’s a handsome guy expressing his love.”
“He’s so handsome. But he likes such a mediocre girl. It must be true love.”
“I’m so envious. I also want such a boyfriend.”
…
Because the door of the ward was not closed, several nurses who came back after dinner happened to see this scene, so they stopped and even recorded the video with their mobile phones.
The nurses were familiar with Vivian. After all, they would meet every day.
“Vivian, agree right now.”
“He treats you so well. Hurry up and promise him.”
“That’s right. It’s now or never.”
The nurses, who had stopped to watch, jumped up excitedly. They looked even more excited than Vivian.
Seeing this scene, Jenny, who was sitting on the sofa, had a smile on her face. “Vivian, I think Issac is really sincere to you. Otherwise… why don’t you try to get along?”
Facing such an ugly face, how could Issac not dislike it? Jenny felt that he was not bad.
Maybe they could try to get together.
When the time was ripe and she was going to take Vivian to see his parents, she and the old man should have been discharged from the hospital.
At that time, Vivian would no longer have to pretend to be ugly in front of the Lee family. She could also meet Issac’s parents with her real face.
A marriage would succeed.
“Mom, I…”
Vivian finally understood. Her adoptive mother was really worried that she wouldn’t be able to find a boyfriend with her ugly face, so she pushed her out in a hurry.
She curled her lips and looked at Issac helplessly. “How about… have a try?”
