“Penelope, I just told my dad that there is an important project recently and asked him to help keep an eye on it. As a supervisor, to control the quality, so he showed up at the construction site.”
Darren was still making excuses.
Because I was busy with the villa design recently, Darren was not satisfied with the design of the master bedroom and the courtyard and changed it back and forth for several versions. Now I thought about it and realize that the project was for his little childhood sweetheart.
I didn’t have time to contact my dad for a while. I just remembered that it was my dad’s birthday the day before yesterday. I wanted to go home to give him a surprise, but I found that he was not at home, so I called him.
It was very noisy on the other end of the phone. It was the sound of construction, but my father’s joyful voice was still clear. “Penelope, Dad is here at your and Darren’s new villa. Dad will decorate it for you as soon as possible, I guarantee you will be satisfied!”
I knew as soon as I heard it that Darren had lied to Dad that it was a villa for his childhood sweetheart.
