Mr. Billionaire Boundless Love

Selene left Houston in the afternoon. Clint had some work to do that day. She sent him a message, “I’m heading back to my hometown for a few days. Wanna come with me?”

“Can’t. A lot of work this week. I’ll go with you next time.” Was the reply she received later.

Selene curled her lip when she read the message.

Back when they used to be married, Clint had avoided meeting her parents, and Selene didn’t like that one bit. But now that they had managed to create a happier and, in her eyes, better relationship, she chose to let him off this time.

Just let it be, she reassured herself.

When Selene returned to her hometown, the first thing she did was throw herself at all the housework left undone. Harry’s hand was still not in good condition, so he had been unable to do it himself.

The next day, when they finished eating breakfast, Selene took tools to clean the yard.

After she had just finished sweeping the yard, Harry took her phone to him and said, “Someone is calling you.”

Selene soon took her phone in her hand and answered with a smile, “I thought you were busy with work. Did anything happen?”

“I canceled my work for today in advance without telling you.” Clint laughed.

“Oh, I see.”

“Are there many arch bridges on the river that flow through your hometown?”

“Yes, there are,” Selene answered with a slightly confused tone, unsure as to why he was asking that question.

“There’s an arch bridge right by an old willow tree, isn’t there?” Clint asked again.

Selene felt at a loss but soon recomposed herself. “Where are you now?”

“I…”

Before Clint finished his words, Selene interrupted him out of excitement. “Just stay there. I’m coming!”

She hung up with a wide smile on her face. “Dad. I’m going out for a while.” She shouted.

Selene ran towards the river. Eventually, she could see the bridge in the distance. As she got closer, she spotted a familiar figure standing under an ancient willow tree.

The tall and slender man captured her full attention. Her heart beat faster, and she quickened her pace. She then slowed down her pace and adjusted her breath.

Clint kept his gaze on her as she got closer. He wore a light smile.

Selene felt euphoria when she saw Clint but tried to hide it. When she reached Clint, she stopped in front of him and lifted up her wrist, looking at the watch. “It’s only 9. How did you get here so early?” Selene beamed with a bright smile.

Houston was a 4 hours’ car drive away.

“I got her last night, but it was late, and I didn’t want to disturb you.”

“So you stayed alone at a hotel?”

“Yes. The town is as beautiful as I’ve imagined.” Clint nodded.

“I know it is.” Selene nodded with pride.

“Could you give me a small tour?” Clint looked at her and smiled lightly.

“My pleasure.”

Selene then took Clint around the town, showing him her old school, her favorite restaurants, and the only park in the town.

These places showed Selene’s childhood.

Finally, they got back to the riverside. There were people selling all kinds of flowers there. “This is a special moment. I’ll get you some flowers.”

“Haha, silly. Austin also bought me flowers by this riverside.”

“Austin? Why did he buy you flowers?”

“Yes. He truly cares about our friendship. He told me that he hoped that our friendship would be like the flowers, beautiful and glorious.”

“Friendship?” Clint glanced at her. “Then he shouldn’t have given you roses.”

“Haha, don’t take this so seriously. You sound childish.”

“There’s also still a lot you don’t know about me.” Clint casually raised the corner of his lips, hinting at secrets unknown.

“It’s getting late. I need to go back to prepare lunch. Let’s go home.”

She started walking but realized that Clint remained in place.

“Are you coming?”

“I wasn’t expecting to meet your father when I came here.”

“It’s okay. Don’t sweat it. He’s easy to get along with.”

“Okay,” Clint said but still didn’t move from his spot.

Seeing Clint’s hesitation, Selene frowned slightly. “Are you nervous?”

“Yes, a little.” Clint tried to force a smile.This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.

“Don’t worry; he’s really friendly. You don’t need to impress him.”

“Does he know I’m coming?”

“No. It’ll be a surprise.”

“Or maybe a shock.” Clint joked, which he hardly did before.

Selene did not pay much attention to his words.

When they arrived at Harry’s house, she took out the key and opened the gate. “Dad! We’re back.” Selene shouted loudly.

“Selene, I’m preparing lunch. What do you want to eat?”

“Dad, let me do it. You should rest.” Selene said, running up to Harry.

At that moment, Harry saw Clint, who was following Selene. “You didn’t tell me that a friend will be joining us.”

“This is my new boyfriend,” Selene whispered into Harry’s ear. “Take it easy.”

“What?” Harry looked at Selene as if he misheard her.

Selene blinked her eyes towards Harry and stepped back to Clint. She pushed Clint forward and introduced him. “This is Clint.”

“Nice to meet you. Mr. Morris.” Clint greeted him respectfully.

“Clint?” Harry’s eyes swept over Clint’s face, and he became confused. Selene nudged him; finally, he came back to normal and nodded. “Nice to meet you.”

“This is a big surprise for you, dad.” Selene laughed loudly.

Harry glared at Selene. “Take a seat. I’ll get lunch ready.”

Selene stopped Harry. “I’ll go make lunch. You stay with Clint and have a talk.”

Harry smiled embarrassedly and went back to greet Clint, who stood still without moving.

Harry rubbed his hands uneasily. He looked at Clint, deep in thought, as if trying to work out a puzzle. “Where do you come from?” He asked.

“Coast City.”

“Great place,” Harry smiled. “What does your family do?”

“The same as you. My parents work in the same industry.”

“Oh wow. And how are your parents doing?”

“They are good.”
