"I didn't cherish her before. If I could be with her again, I would say to her that I love her. I wish we could be together forever..."
Eventually, the phone rang.
Eileen picked up the phone. It was Ruben. H e asked, "Are you free tomorrow?"
She asked, "What's wrong?"
"My mom is coming to me tomorrow. She keeps urging me to get married. I helped you before. Can you help me?" Ruben asked.
After freezing for a moment, Eileen said," Well, I'm not convenient, you'd better ask someone else for help."
Ruben said, "Brad said you are in the hospital these days. Can you have dinner with my mom? It won't take a long time."
Eileen still wanted to refuse him.
Ruben said, "Please help me."
She felt so embarrassed that she didn't refuse him.
The two of them were talking while Luke was reading his newspaper.
But he was moving his ears and eavesdropping on their conversation.
He regretted asking Brad to call and tell Ruben that Eileen took care of him in the hospital.
'What a scheming bastard!' "Alright. Tell me about it when you set a time." Eileen said. She seemed to remember something and continued, "By the way, what gift does your mother like?"
Hearing these words, Luke narrowed his eyes and kept staring at her back.
After a while, Eileen hung up the phone.
As soon as she turned around, she saw Luke staring at her. He asked, "Are you going to meet his parents?"
Eileen ignored him.
