"It's alright." It was strange to think that Nadius once too had been driving on the same courses that Ellie had ten years ago.  Preben reminded him of his more dangerous days where he did stunt driving to make some extra income so he could finish his degree.  They had both almost died on film sets just to get their paychecks while they did pro driving. In those days it didn't pay anything, but the call didn't leave him until he meet Mei.  He was glad that he had more stability now and was hopeful he wouldn't never have to think about his next rent payment on the back of driving ever again.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click www.novelhall.comfor visiting.

As Sheng Mei and him started to eat, they began to laugh as they talked about past friendships.  Sometimes the laugh was a sad one, but it was nice to have each other to share the feelings. They were getting older so everyone had scattered around so they were harder to track.  Now that social media was making it easier to find everyone, this type of news was good to find.

As they slowly found the stories of others dwindling, Sheng Mei wondered.  "I can see that my nephew has found his flawless plans to have fallen apart.  He's not very used to dealing with complications, he hates the idea of doing so.  He is very good at cutting off loose ends. I don't think that bodes too well for our daughter-in law."

Nadius nodded with creases lining his forehead.  "You are very good at reading Henry. Of course, you know him very well and from his message it seems exactly so.  Henry hopes to find a way to cut off this loose end of a wife. You know I would be inclined to agree with him usually, but you know it's such a waste.  I would like to think that Ellie Chen and Henry Wong could be quite a good match if they gave it a chance. Ellie would be a wonderful mother and supportive partner to his endeavors.  She's an ideal bride in all ways, but one which is that he didn't choose her. That's too bad that he won't even give her a chance. But it is true that he does have reasons to fear marriage.  I wonder if his childhood is what is frightening him so much."

"That's such a silly reason to throw away a lovely girl.  I know my brother well, he had this thought in his mind when he decided to write it into his last wishes.  He is quite smart." Sheng Mei smiled darkly. "Think of it this way forces him to choose somebody. I think Conrad hoped that Henry would eventually come to see the benefits of having someone around to keep him company.  It's such a shame the way he treated Henry when he was divorcing. He was such a sensitive child even then. I have always been worried that he would be a life long bachelor."
