Chapter 547

Chapter 547“It's almost done.” Silas recalled about the record he had went through the other day.
Shane lifted his head. “Great. Once that is settle, arrange a day and invite the department heads over
for a meeting.”
“Understood. Is there anything else, Mr. Shane?”
“Nothing for now.”
“In that case, I'll take my leave.”
Just as he took a few steps towards the door, Shane called out to him, “Wait.”
“Is there anything else?” Silas went back to his side.
While fiddling restlessly with his fountain pen, Shane asked, “What do I have to prepare when meeting
with my girlfriend's parents? Is there anything I should say?”
Although he had met Yulia in the past, their relationship was at most acquaintances who exchanged
pleasantries. And toward acquaintances, his attitude was generally indifferent. But this was different.
After all, he would be meeting his future mother-in-law. This was a first for him, and he was at a loss of
what to do.
Th€ connection to th€ §ource of thïš dat@ r€§t$ in n0v3lebookSilas was momentarily baffled by his question. Never in his wildest dream did he expect an omnipotent
man like Shane would be troubled over such ordinary matters.
“It's almost done.” Silas recalled about the record he had went through the other day.
In the past, Silas saw him as an aloof and out-of-reach figure, but nowadays, it seemed that his boss
was acting more like a human being. This change was only possible after he fell in love with Natalie.“Has Ms. Smith's mother returned?” Silas threw a question at him instead of answering his question.
Shane tapped the fountain pen methodically against his desk. “Yes”
The former pondered for a short while before suggesting, “Well, all you have to do is to be polite, and
assure her that you'll treat Ms. Smith well. Oh, and don't forget to prepare a gift for her.” Having been
single all his life, these were all ideas he picked up from television shows.
“A gift?” Shane narrowed his eyes. Hmm... That does make sense. “I'll leave this task to you then,
Silas.”
“Mr. Shane, I...” Silas knew nothing about Natalie's mom's preference and he was about to reject the
request when he saw Shane's no-nonsense look. In the end, he could only agree to it. “Got it. I'll have
the gift prepared on time.” How hard can it be? I'll just pick something women generally like.
Based on my understandings, women of all ages loved bags and make-up products. With this idea in
mind, Silas left the office feeling like a load had been lifted off his mind.
After work, Shane went home to fetch Natalie and the kids. At the back of the car, the kids were fiddling
with the gift bags curiously. Natalie inquired, “Are those for my mom?”
“Yes.” He nodded.
“Daddy! What's inside the bag?” Sharon took the question right off her mother's mouth. As for Connor,
although he remained silent, he was also observing the bag keenly.
Through his rear mirror, Shane saw their wide-eyed and curious expressions. He unknowingly smiled at
this adorable sight. “I don't know. Silas bought it.”
Natalie pursed her lips. “You don't know what you got for my mom?”Isn't he afraid if Silas got something weird? She kept her thoughts to herself so as not to dampen his
efforts. At least he tried, I guess.
Not long later, the family of four arrived at the restaurant. Natalie held Connor's hand while Shane
carried Sharon in his arms. As they walked in, their dazzling looks commanded the attention of
everyone on the floor.
