CHAPTER 386: CHAPTER 399 THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE TWO PEOPLE

In fact, Dad could have chosen to say nothing at all! Alice Conley mumbled in her heart, hearing her dad continue to roar, "Especially with that kind of flashy car, parked right at the entrance of our community. Do you want the whole neighborhood to come and see?"

Alice Conley knew that her dad had always been conservative when it came to educating her. When she was dating Archibald, even just holding hands made her dad grumble for ages, fearing she would be taken advantage of, let alone the time she was kissing Dorian Howards in the car. Alice figured her dad was quite traumatized by that.

"Dad, please don’t be mad. I’ll be careful next time," Alice hurriedly said.

Then her dad’s eyebrows shot up again, "Next time? You’re expecting a next time? Planning to take the car to the neighboring community’s entrance for this?"

"..." Alice thought she might as well be struck by lightning, "I guarantee there won’t be a next time!"

Only then did her dad feel a little calmer. After all, his daughter was his daughter, so he decided to direct his anger towards outsiders instead.

"What’s your name?" Her dad asked Dorian Howards grumpily.

"Dorian Howards."

"Age?"

"30 years old."

"What is your relationship with my daughter?"

On the side, Alice found herself tangled up. She hadn’t mentioned her past relationship with Dorian to her family. Naturally, her parents didn’t know she had yet another ex-boyfriend. If Dorian said something now, she would surely be grilled by her parents again.

So, Alice started making "facial cues" at Dorian, but it was in vain as he didn’t even look her way. Instead, he stared intently at her dad and said, "Alice is the love of my life, and I hope my relationship with her will be husband and wife in the future."

"So, you’re dating our Alice with the intention of marriage?" Alice’s mom, on the side, seemed pleasantly surprised.

Her daughter had graduated from college, turning 23 after the New Year and nearly reaching 24 virtually. Naturally, she started worrying about her daughter’s lifelong matters. Her daughter finally had a boyfriend, but they broke up not long after, leaving her worried for days. Now, unexpectedly, not long after, her daughter found another handsome and dashing man.

"Yes." Dorian answered firmly.

Alice stumbled at the side, almost falling. Dating? Please, when did she ever date Dorian?! Moreover, she and Dorian would definitely not become a married couple in the future!

"Mom, Dad, he and I aren’t even..."

But her dad wasn’t listening to her explanation at all, and just said to Dorian, "Even if you are considering marriage, you shouldn’t take advantage of a young girl before that."

"Because Alice is just too cute, I couldn’t help myself," Dorian replied.

Alice, usually quite thick-skinned, couldn’t help but twitch at that. How could Dorian say that out loud?

However, her dad nodded in agreement, "My Alice is indeed very cute. Tough on you though..." After a conversation, her dad’s attitude towards Dorian improved quite a bit.

Alice sweat buckets, while her mom, like a mother-in-law eyeing her son-in-law, grew more and more satisfied, starting to inquire about Dorian Howards’ detailed background.
