Sir, Madam Dispeared Again After Divorce! novel Chapter 923

Even though Mrs. Chase looked at him fussily, he didn't feel offended or unhappy at all.

Before coming, he had especially invited a few married secretaries to his office and asked them what problems people might encounter when they met their future parents-in-law for the first time and what they should do to leave a good impression on the parents.

Those secretaries told him that parents-in-law would test a son-in-law or daughter-in-law to judge whether the person was suitable for their son or daughter.

The first common test was to examine the appearance of the person.

If the person's appearance was pleasant to the eye, it was half the battle.

So, Julien had prepared to be examined.

When Mrs. Chase looked at him up and down, he stood there detachedly and unhurriedly.

He had always been confident in his look. To be honest, no man was more good-looking than him, except Micah, who resembled a beautiful lady.

Sure enough, Mrs. Chase became deflated noticeably after examining his appearance, and she didn't point out that he was dressed inappropriately.

Thus, Julien had passed the first round of the test and could sit the second round.

Thinking about it, Julien gave a faint smile and saw Sydney secretly give him a thumbs up.

At the sight of it, his smile deepened. "Mrs. Chase, am I dressed properly?”

In effect, he was asking whether she was satisfied with him.

As he couldn't ask her straightforwardly, he put forward a roundabout question.

Mrs. Chase understood what he meant.

Hearing his question, she didn't answer it, but just took a glance at him. She held Sydney’s hand and queried kindly, "Syd, I haven't seen you for some time. Why do you look so thin? Is it because someone treats you badly? If so, tell me. I’ll teach that person a lesson!”

Then she cast a meaningful look at Julien.

Julien raised his eyebrows.

Well, the second round of the test began.

The secretaries had said that if parents-in-law were gratified with the appearance, they would ask their son or daughter indirectly whether his or her partner was considerate, even if they knew that the partner was good to their son or daughter.

The reason why parents-in-law caviled at their child's partner was to test the temperament of the person.

If their child's partner had a bad temper and was touchy, they tended to be affronted and leave at once. Parents-in-law usually wouldn’t allow their child to be with such an ill-mannered person.

But the partner, if good-tempered, wouldn't consider those words offensive, as they knew the parents-in-law wanted their child to be loved and cared for.

When feeling their child’s partner was good and reliable, parents knew that their child's partner would brace themself for the following challenges.

Julien was in such a state.

He gave Sydney his unreserved and genuine love.

Though irritable sometimes, he had always been tender to Sydney. The tenderest man in the world must be he!

Hearing Mrs. Chase’s question, Sydney knew she was asking her on purpose.
