Chapter 370

“I do have some half-siblings that share the same father. My father has quite a few women, therefore

he had more

children.”

Mr. and Mrs. Sweeney had not expected such an answer, so

the atmosphere became rather awkward. They did not know

how to continue the conversation.

Lina Sweeney immediately said without further thoughts, “Mom, Dad, these are the affairs of the

previous generation. His parents are his parents, he is himself!”

Hadwin Stephenson was rather surprised by Lina Sweeney as he looked at her with a hint of warmth

that even he did not

realize.

Mr. Sweeney reacted first and conceded. “Indeed. Those were the affairs of past generations. So…

Tingxin, what are you working as?”

“I mainly manage a company,” Hadwin Stephenson replied.

“Manage… a company?” Mr. Sweeney looked at him in disbelief. He thought perhaps he had misheard

him. “What

company do you manage? You’re only 29 years old.”

For Mr. Sweeney, it was good enough if a 29-year-old young man could get a regular managerial

position.

As for managing a company, he still found it rather implausible.

“I’m not sure if you’ve heard of Stephenson Group.”

Mr. Sweeney was a man from a small suburb. He was not familiar with any famous shipping

companies. However, he could tell the brand of cars from the logo within his suburb.

Mr. Sweeney smiled awkwardly. “Um… I haven’t heard of it before. Is it a new company?” After all,

young people nowadays liked being entrepreneurs. It was not uncommon for them to build a new

company.

Lina Sweeney felt more awkward than her dad.

Hadwin Stephenson said nothing but merely smiled.

After chatting a while more, Lina Sweeney wanted to find an

excuse to send Hadwin Stephenson off, but her parents asked

him to stay for a meal.

“Didn’t you say that you have some things to settle in the

office?” Lina Sweeney kept signaling him with her eyes.

“This meal won’t take much of my time.”

Lina Sweeney was rendered speechless.

‘Is he saying that he wants to stay for a meal?’

After the meal ended, Lina Sweeney noticed that her parents wanted to chat further with Hadwin

Stephenson to get to know him further. Thus, she quickly said, “Let me take him out

for a stroll to digest our food.” She did not waste any second in

pulling Hadwin Stephenson out.

Lina Sweeney finally heaved in relief once they reached the

elevator. The meet-the-parents-day finally ended.

Lina Sweeney could not help from exclaiming, “If I didn’t bring

you out just now, my parents would probably ask about your ancestral tree as well. Earlier when my

parents asked you those questions, you didn’t need to answer with much detail. You could have just

brushed them off with a simple answer.”

He suddenly said, “I think you wish that your parents aren’t pleased with me. If that’s the case, why did

you say something like ‘my parents are my parents, I am me’ kind of thing?”

Lina Sweeney was taken aback for a moment. She had said

that out of the spur of the moment.

“So… you don’t wish that your parents dislike me?” he asked.

His gaze seemed to make her inexplicably flustered. “I just felt that the deeds of the past generation

should not be equated

to you as a person. Don’t overanalyze the meaning of what I

said.”

She turned her head away to avoid his gaze.
