"It'll takea thousand years to pay back the loan with my reporter's salary." Rita laughed bitterly.

Sherman frowned and said, "You're making it sound like I'm forcing you to change jobs. I never asked you to repay the money. The leaked video already ruined my reputation, and now you want other people to think I mistreat my wife?" Rita shook her head vehemently. "Of course not, that's not what I meant! It's just that my family did ask your family for a loan... There's no such thing as a free lunch, and I don't want him to think he could take advantage of your family whenever he wants. It's better to keep things clear." Despite how tense their relationship was, Rita still blushed at the word 'wife' for sreason. Sherman remained silent for the rest of the journey, leaving Rita to deal with the embarrassment alone until they reached the Parr family's residence.

Despite knowing that Sherman was wealthy, Rita was still surprised and impressed when she saw the grand mansion. Her family's mansion seemed insignificant compared to it. No wonder Sherman could conceal his family's wealth so well; nobody knew his family was this wealthy.

Sherman frowned at Rita as she got out of the car. He then strode briskly over to her and stood beside her. "Don't forget what I told you in the car." Startled, Rita said, "Sorry. It's just a bit awkward meeting the in-laws for the first time." Rita then cautiously linked her arm with Sherman's. "If you don't like this, I can just hold onto the hem of your clothes. You said we should act like a loving couple, so we shouldn't walk in like we don't know each other, right?" Surprisingly, Sherman held Rita's hand instead. "Can you please act more naturally? You look like I'm forcing you to do this right now. I'll be surprised if my family doesn't notice something is amiss." "Okay..." His hand was indeed as large and strong as Rita had imagined. She felt like her entire hand had been swallowed by his.

Sherman had the sthought; her hand was so small, almost boneless and soft.

As Sherman led the blushing Rita into the mansion, where his elderly grandparents and parents awaited them. It was the first ttheir daughter-in-law was visiting, so out of respect, they all showed up at the door to greet her.

Rita was surprised by the warm reception, especially since it seemed inappropriate for the elders to wait at the door. Anxiously, she tugged at Sherman's arm. "Let's hurry, shouldn't keep them waitingel UM draft." the Seeing her pulling on his hand, Sherman's gaze darkened. How nice would it be if things could always be so simple between them? "You're finally home, Sherman!" Simona, his mother, exclaimed softly.

It was their first tmeeting Rita, so there was inevitably sawkwardness. After all, Sherman had never brought any girl het before. However, Rita was much more well-behaved than they had imagined, taking the initiative to greet them.

"Hello, Grandpa Roger, Grandma Chelsea, Mister and Missus Parr d'm sorry for not bringing anything withsince I was only informed of this meeting at the last minute..."

As she spoke, Rita even glanced back at Sherman with a hint of playfulness, as if blaming him for not arranging things in advance.

Seeing their interaction, Simona chuckled and visibly relaxed. "There's no need to bring anything since you two are married. Think of it as coming back to your own home." X
