Chapter 749
Just as Elizabeth was about to tidy up her room, she heard her phone ring. She took a look and froze.
It was from her mother!
It seemed like they hadn't been in contact for a long time. Elizabeth self-deprecated herself. Her mother must have read the reports of her and Richard Hughes, so she realised that she still had a daughter.
Elizabeth thought for a moment, then picked up her phone to answer the call.
"Mom!"
"Eliza, are the reports online true? Are you really Richard's girlfriend?" Sure enough, her mother's tone was filled with shock and disbelief.
Elizabeth nodded and replied, "Yes, it's true. Mom, how have you been recently? How is brother? "
"Let's have dinner together tonight. Bring your boyfriend over and introduce him to us, okay?" Her mother asked in a gentle tone with a trace of happiness in her voice. Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
Elizabeth rejected her instinctively, "Mom, he and I still have other things to do tonight, so we might not be able to go back home to eat dinner."
"That's unfortunate. Alright then, tomorrow noon. Mom will prepare a sumptuous lunch at home. Bring him back to see us. You're my daughter, and since you have a boyfriend, of course I care about you." Obviously, she did not expect her own daughter to be so charming, to actually date a superstar.
"Mom, I'll come back tomorrow afternoon. Richard has been rather busy recently, so he might not have time." Given her current relationship with Richard, there was no way she could bring him home.
Even if she begged him, he would not go home with her.
"So busy that he doesn't even have time to have lunch with us?" Her mother was obviously dissatisfied.
"Mom, our relationship isn't very stable yet. Let's talk about the meeting later in the future. I'II be coming home tomorrow!" After Elizabeth finished speaking, she hung up.
Holding the phone, Elizabeth sensed the bitterness. Her mother calling her was completely out of respect for Richard Hughes, and it was not because she wanted to see her daughter. From the day she could remember, everything her mother did, had a very clear purpose.
"Who were you talking with?" Suddenly, a lazy male voice was heard from outside the door.
In fact, Richard just reached the door and heard her talking. When he saw her standing there dumbstruck, he asked her out of curiosity.
"It's my mom!" Elizabeth did not hide from him.
Richard raised his brows and looked at her: "Does your mom need anything from you?"
"Nothing, just want me to go home to have lunch!" Elizabeth hid the sadness in her eyes and replied lightly.
"When?"
Elizabeth Jones casually answered: "Tomorrow at noon!"
"I don't have anything to do at noon tomorrow, so I'll go home with you." Richard suddenly said.
Elizabeth's small hand that was holding onto her phone trembled, she looked at him with disbelief: "You will go back with me?"
"What is it? You don't want to bring your boyfriend like me back home?" Richard thought that she was looking down on him, and his pretty face instantly revealed an expression of displeasure.
Elizabeth immediately shook her head and explained, "That's not what I meant. I just didn't think that you would be willing to come home with me I don't have money to pay you for putting on a show with me!"
"I'm not in need of money like you are!" Richard rolled his eyes at her.
Elizabeth became even more astonished, her beautiful big eyes anxiously flashed twice: "Then why are you willing to come home with me? My house is not as warm as yours, I'm afraid that if you go home with me, you will be very disappointed."
"It's precisely why I want to follow you back to take a look myself!" Richard's serene eyes focused on her little face. He didn't know why, but he had a nagging feeling that she didn't like that family and couldn't hide the sadness and disappointment in her eyes.
Elizabeth became a little messy because of his words.
"Actually, my mom told me to take you home for lunch just now. I didn't agree." Elizabeth laughed at herself.
"Is your mother not nice to you?" Richard had heard her say before that her mother had given birth to two brothers and had forgotten about her.
"No, she was very nice to me. She was just too busy and didn't have the time to care about me." Elizabeth didn't complain about her mother. She knew that her mother had suffered a lot for her and she was very grateful to her mom.
"Oh, then you're luckier than me. My mom abandoned me!" Richard raised his eyebrows and said indifferently.
Elizabeth immediately felt pain as she looked at him. Losing the love of his parents, that was a huge blow.
"Don't look at me with such sympathy. You are no better than me." Richard didn't like the look in her eyes at all, as if he was extremely pathetic.
Elizabeth laughed mockingly, "Yes, what right do I have to sympathize with you? At least you have money and status."
"You have status now." Richard could not bear to see her sad look while laughing at herself, and he suddenly smiled.
"What status do I have?" Elizabeth blinked her eyes strangely, she was just a nobody.
"You are Richard Hughes's girlfriend now, is that not enough?" Richard's smile was evidently more.
Elizabeth froze, then she quickly lowered her head and laughed bashfully: "Oh, I almost forgot, I still have such an enviable identity, but unfortunately, this will not be true in the future!"
"Are you telling me you don't like a time limit?" Richard suddenly approached her, his long and straight legs moving gracefully and lazily.
Elizabeth did not expect him to walk towards her, so she instinctively took two steps back. A gigantic French window was behind her.
Sunlight shone in from outside the window, and the man's imposing figure was highlighted, suffocating Elizabeth.
"I….. That's not what I meant, don't misunderstand me!" Elizabeth's mind went blank. Her words made her blush and her heart beat faster.
Richard walked in front of her, and with the advantage of his height, he could easily trap her in his arms.
Her skin was white and translucent against the light. It was soft, showing the kind of clean and pure look that only a young girl would have.
Richard had only wanted to tease her in the beginning, because he was too bored now. In the house, only Elizabeth was left to provide him with and fun.
The elegant hormone's smell on the man's body made Elizabeth tense up. Oh my god, why does this man always smell so nice? It caused people to be reluctant to part with it.
Elizabeth felt her head swelling, she had the urge to approach him voluntarily.
