Clarence stopped the car in front of a wooden green gate. The house was situated at a two-way road within the city limits but far from the business district. There were two factories found within the vicinity. Only a few vehicles were using this road, making the place peaceful for the residents. Most people who lived there were workers in the said factories. Beauty's parents were part of the few who had jobs outside of the area.
A tall middle-aged man with well-combed hair came out of the house. He was only wearing a sleeveless white shirt, a pair of black pants, and a pair of red sandals. Looking at this man, one could tell he was attractive when he was younger.
"Papa!" Beauty shouted as she ran and hugged the man.
"Huh? Beauty? Oh, you're back." He returned the hug his daughter gave him. "Bella, your daughter is back… who is this boy?" His father shouted back at the house before scrutinizing this handsome young man with his daughter.
"Pa, this is Clarence Peres. He is a chef."
