Chapter 1464
Since Larry's parents had overheard the phone conversation with Lulu, they moved out. Larry was the only one in
this house now.
The initial plan was to gradually decorate the house with auspicious characters before the wedding, which Larry
vetoed.
"Let's wait a bit. Girls have different tastes from ours. My new girlfriend seems to have even better taste than Lulu.
If we arrange everything too early and she doesn't like the decor, our efforts will be in vain."
The elderly couple exchanged glances. "You're right."
However, they couldn't help but ask, "When are you going to introduce this new girlfriend to us?"
It was hard for them to believe that Larry had fallen in love so quickly.
Larry thought that it would be better to bring Cecilia back home as soon as possible. He thought for a while, before
quickly giving them a time. "Soon. Not later than this week."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSeeing their son's confident demeanor, they were pleased. They didn’t intervene in the matter of the house
anymore.
Now, Larry was about to fulfill his promise and bring Cecilia over. When they reached the downstairs of his
residence, Cecilia looked at the residential building.
"Where are we?"
"I need to add some decor to my home, but I don’t have good tastes," Larry said, keeping up his amiable and
simple facade. "You can give me some suggestions. I'll buy what you like and put it in."
Cecilia didn't think much about it. ’Sure!"
She usually liked researching beautiful things when she had nothing to do. If she could help Larry decorate the
room, she'd be happy to do so.
"Come over here," Larry said. Seeing that she didn't refuse, he felt relieved. "I thought you might have some
complaints about the place I live in, because it's quite an old community.

"Not at all!" Cecilia, with good manners, considered others at such times. "Have you ever thought that with the
slums I used to live in, I have no right to find fault with you?"
"You're right." Larry wasn’t smart sometimes, and he simply agreed with her. As soon as he said that, he realized
what he had said.
Just as he was about to apologize to Cecilia, she continued, "Larry, you're really funny."
His plump face turned red in an instant.
Previously, during his school days, everyone used to say he was a clumsy rooster, only capable of crowing loudly.
His spoken words were as annoying as the morning crowing of a rooster that disrupted people's sleep.
Even when he started working, he remained clumsy with his words. Some colleagues would suggest he take
language classes to improve, while others would bluntly tell him not to speak due to his lack of eloquence.
Even if someone praised him, they would say he was blunt.
The term might sound like a compliment, akin to calling someone simple and honest. However, only Larry knew
that being blunt, much like being cute, was just a polite way of insulting him.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAmong all those people, Cecilia had been the only one to say Larry was funny.
This sentence acted like a spell, opening up a warm excitement in Larry's heart. His face turned slightly red, and he
enthusiastically introduced Cecilia, "Ms. Jarvis, my home is in an old building without an elevator. Can you climb up
to the sixth floor with me? Will that be okay?"
Cecilia nodded. "Of course."
Although climbing the stairs seemed simple, due to the lack of exercise for a long time, she clearly felt the exertion
as they reached the top. Her legs were a bit sore.
Cecilia stretched her legs, and said, "Quick, get me a glass of water."
Larry nodded and hurried into the room, coming out with a pink cup.
Cecilia looked at him in surprise, "Did you prepare it specifically for me?"
Actually, it was prepared for Lulu before. But Lulu wouldn't be coming here anymore, and Larry had Cecilia now. He
had firmly closed that chapter of his life.
Larry shook his head, and said, "It was for my ex-girlfriend. Don't mind it."
Cecilia wasn't upset at all. "I don't mind. I'm glad you're so honest with me."
