True Love Waits novel Chapter 1156

Wesley chased Erica around the living room. She begged, "Dad, please stop chasing me. Please!"

This was a day in the life of Erica—being her father's smelly socks.

A few minutes later when Erica realized that she had nowhere else to go, she opened the gate and ran out of the house.

Wesley ran after her and didn't stop until she was out of sight. He took the feather duster and walked towards the foreigner. When Wesley waved the duster in front of him, the young man immediately raised his hands, gesturing surrender and said, "I'm sorry! I'm very sorry!" Then he disappeared from the Li family's living room as fast as he could.

That evening, Erica sat at the main gate of the Li house, cupping her chin, and lazily shouted, "Dad, let me in! Mom let me in! I'm going to die out here if you don't let me in!"

A moment later, the gate squeaked open and revealed Wesley standing in the doorway.

"Dad!" Erica jumped to her feet and looked at her father expectantly.

What her father said next was just the words she had been hoping to hear. "Come in," he said.

"Really?" A sudden burst of happiness made her feel ecstatic.

"Yes," he confirmed.

She ran towards her father and hugged him tightly. "Dad, I knew you still love me."

Wesley tried his best to suppress his giggle and said, "Just get inside. Your mom's waiting for you in the dining room with pork ribs. Your sister will be back soon."

"Boohoo..." Erica hugged him harder and burst into tears, wailing like a spoiled child. "Dad, even if I'm a pair of stinky socks, I'm your stinky socks. You can't just throw me out."

Wesley sighed and pulled Erica away from him. "Don't be so dramatic. Go inside and have dinner. Then, go straight to bed. I don't want you staying up late!"

"Why not?"

"I'm taking you back to Y City tomorrow!"

Erica's eyebrows shot up in bewilderment and she immediately pleaded, "Dad, no!"

See? She knew she was just a pair of unloved, smelly socks to him!

Erica walked into the dining room and picked up Ethan from the baby chair. She kissed him so many times that the baby's cheeks started showing a tinge of pink. Blair didn't want her daughter disturbing the baby, so she pushed Erica into the bathroom.

Fortunately, Erica had come back at a good time because Yvette was supposed to bring her boyfriend home to talk about the engagement with her family.

Earlier, Yvette had mentioned nothing about her boyfriend, and thus, Erica had never met her future brother-in-law.

Wesley and Blair, however, had met the man and they were quite convinced that he was going to be their future son-in-law.

As soon as Erica came out of the bathroom, Yvette stepped into the house.

With Wesley's and Blair's hospitality, Yvette led her boyfriend into the dining room.

Yvette's boyfriend, Remus You, was the second son of the You family, a literary family from A Country who valued education very much. He had majored in Aerospace Dynamics Engineering from The A Country University of Technology. And now, he was studying for a doctorate in The Y City University of Aeronautics and Astronautics.

Yvette introduced Erica to Remus You. "I mentioned this one to you before. My father's undisputed rival—Erica Li!"

"Sister!" Erica said as she shook Yvette's hand discontentedly, feeling embarrassed.

Remus You smiled and politely greeted Erica, "Nice to meet you, Erica. I've heard a lot about you."

Erica then secretly observed Remus You, scanning him with her eyes. He was wearing an expensive navy blue casual suit. With black short hair and chiseled features, he exuded an aristocratic aura. Erica immediately deduced that he must have been from a rich family.
