Lawrence went straight to his car as soon as he stepped out of the bar. But, instead of going to his apartment, he drove straight for the Chu family's villa.
Bill was weeding the garden when Lawrence arrived at the villa. He stopped what he was doing and met Lawrence by his car.
"What brings you here, Mr. Lawrence?" Bill asked with a puzzled look the moment Lawrence stepped out of the car. It had been a long time since Lawrence visited the villa, not since he bought his apartment. Why was he suddenly here, without any notice, Bill wondered.
"I have to take care of some things. Where is Lily?" Lawrence asked while he headed for the villa.
"Lily is inside the villa," Bill replied, as he entered the villa after Lawrence.
Lawrence went straight to the living room, with Bill behind him. He settled himself on the lounge without saying anything.
Remembering that Lawrence needed Lily, Bill looked for her. He came back to the living room with Lily in tow.
Lily studied Lawrence as she entered the living room. With his blank, emotionless face, she couldn't figure out what was on his mind. She stood a few feet away from him, not saying a word.
"Lily," Lawrence greeted the old maid earnestly.
"Hello, Mr. Lawrence, welcome back. What can I do for you?" Lily greeted with obedience.

"Mrs. Cherry will be there. She is a sensible woman and she loves her son very much. She will understand. And she can talk to Mr. Jackson about it," Lily blurted out. "But the lady still comes from an unknown family. That's going to be a big problem."
Bill was silent. He knew what Lily said made a lot of sense. But he didn't think there was a solution to this problem. Once the Chu family were back together under one roof, he believed Lawrence's marriage was going to be their focus.
It was already past 8:00 pm when Lawrence opened the main door to the apartment. He found Aria watching TV in the living room.
Aria already heard the door open before Lawrence came into the living room. Without saying a word, she stared at the television screen.
Lawrence watched Aria before he took off his coat and placed it in the closet. He changed his shoes to slippers before he joined her on the sofa.
He settled himself on the sofa beside Aria and watched what she was watching. "What time did you get here?" Lawrence asked with his eyes on the screen.
