Texas.

Galveston.

All four were Experienced Driver, so they took turns driving, and the car hardly stopped for a moment. They arrived home in no time.

"Heather, why don't you come stay at Karen's Home with us?"

Juno suggested, "Her parents aren't home, and the house is big, so it's very convenient."

Heather couldn't help but look at Adam.

Adam glanced at Juno, who was smiling and had a "I'm doing this for your own good" expression on her face. After thinking for a moment, he nodded and said, "Alright, there are a few troublemakers in the family. Actually, I'd like to move in with them all."

"Come if you want to."

Juno teased, "We left the door open for you. It's not like you've never stayed here before. Have you forgotten?"

"..."

Adam's lips twitched.

It's better not to mention it, because it makes him feel a little uncomfortable.

I did stay overnight at Karen's Home last time, but I have almost no memory of that time at all.

However, he had a feeling that one day he would remember.

Because while ordinary people suffer from permanent amnesia, Adam's intelligence improved as his nervous system and memory also recovered and improved.

The fact that he could clearly recall not only his memories before this life's transmigration, but also all the information from his previous life in 2020, when his IQ was elevated to genius level, is proof of this.

Who knows what earth-shattering changes will occur when IQ is raised to the level of a super genius?

"Okay, see you tonight."

Adam asked Juno to park in front of his house, let him out, took various gifts from the trunk, waved to signal that they could leave, and then, carrying his bags, rang the doorbell.

"Charlie, open the door."

My mother's voice came from inside the house.

With a creak.

A tiny little one peeked out from behind the door, her face full of wariness. It was none other than Charlie.

Wow! Adam!

Upon seeing Adam, Charlie immediately cried out in delight and pounced on Adam.

Adam crouched down, opened his arms with relief, but then his face darkened.

Six-year-old Charlie nimbly dodged Adam's arm, went around to Adam side, hugged the pile of gifts, and kept saying, "Mine, mine, all mine, thank you Adam!"

"Just saying thank you makes you think all these gifts are yours?"

Adam, his face dark, sneered, "Do you think you're Qin Shi Huang?"

"Big brother~"

Upon hearing this, Charlie's eyes darted around. She put down the gift, leaped towards Adam, and was quickly caught by Adam. She wrapped her little arms around Adam neck, kissed Adam, and sweetly exclaimed, "I missed you so much~"

"I miss you as well."

Adam kissed his little sister and teased, "But why do I feel like you're more interested in my gift?"

"It's because I miss you~"

Charlie didn't dare look at Adam, but instead pressed her head against Adam and said coquettishly.

"Adam is back!"

Hearing the noise, Mom came out carrying our Fifth Brother, Toby, overjoyed.

Where are Dad and the others?

Adam carried his things into the house and, seeing that no one else was there, asked curiously.

"There are more bugs that need to be exterminated urgently."

Mom complained, "Teddy has completely gone crazy since he went to college. He said he wants to play with his classmates for a few days before coming back. As for Gabe, do I even need to say anything?"

"Hehe."

Adam smiled.

The third brother Gabe, is now sixteen years old. He has been a mischievous troublemaker since he was a child, and now he is becoming even more unruly.

Not to mention that it's summer vacation now, so why not just stay at home?

That would be pure fantasy.

You came back by yourself?

Mom smiled knowingly and said, "Did you come back with Juno and Karen?"

"Of course, I'll be with them."

Adam said casually.

"Then why don't you come in and sit down?"

Mom said reproachfully, "I really like Juno. I'll invite her over for dinner tonight, and I'll cook a big meal."

"No."

Adam smiled wryly and said, "Juno and I are really just good friends, not what you're thinking."

What do I imagine?

Mom rolled her eyes at Adam: "Can't I invite your best friend over for a big meal? Besides, what's wrong with me thinking about it? You've already graduated from college, not only can I think about it, but you should start thinking about it too."

"I'm starting medical school this fall."

Adam complained, "After four years of medical school, there are still seven years of residency. I'm so busy that I don't have time to think about anything else."

Is there an inherent conflict between being busy with career and dating?

My mom retorted, "I know you've never lacked romantic partners, but you're all grown up now. You should consider having a serious relationship. It's not good to keep playing around like before."

"I know."

Adam replied dismissively.

"You know nothing!"

Mom interrupted, "Juno such a wonderful girl. You two grew up together and are always together. You're such a perfect match. If you really knew, you would have made your move long ago. Why would I need to nag you like this?"

"..."

Adam immediately felt a headache coming on.

He was immediately confronted with "forced marriage" as soon as he entered the house, which instantly reminded him of the nightmares he had during holidays in his past life. Many times he had thought that he might as well not go home for the New Year.

Unexpectedly, after enduring several years in my previous life, I have now transmigrated to United States in the United States and will encounter the same situation.

Oh my god!

He's only 21 years old, still a child!

My mother makes no secret of her affection for Juno.

She originally liked Karen just as much, but over the years, she had noticed that something was off about Karen, though she couldn't quite put her finger on it. In short, it seemed like there was no chemistry between Karen and her son.

And Juno?

She was beautiful, had a pleasant voice, and a close relationship with her son; the more she looked at her, the more she liked her.

In the past, she worried that Adam would mess around and cause a death, trapping them in this small town for the rest of their lives.

Now, Adam has graduated from university, is worth millions, and his wealth is still growing rapidly. Even if he doesn't become a doctor, he can still have no worries if he becomes a writer.

However, she found that Adam was still messing around and didn't seem to be taking things seriously at all, which made her a little worried.

Because once you become a complete Playboy, it's very difficult to seriously cultivate relationships in the future.

It is truly tragic to lack serious feelings.

Many Playboy live a glamorous life on the surface, but their later years are actually miserable!

She and Bob are very satisfied with their marriage and hope that their son can seriously manage his own relationship and find his own other half.

Adam naturally understood his mother's thoughts.

But he couldn't very well say, "Hey Mom, stop thinking about Juno. She's a real tomboy and doesn't like your son's type!"

"I have a girlfriend."

Adam couldn't stand his mother's fierce and piercing gaze, so he gritted his teeth and decided to temporarily elevate Heather's status from 'more than friends, less than lovers' to lovers.

All in all, Heather has indeed been his longest-lasting and most stable female friend over the years. If Adam hadn't planned ahead and avoided dating when he was young, even in name only, the two would have made their relationship public long ago.

Moreover, after living together for more than two years, Adam discovered that Heather and Rachel were different, leaning towards conservatism.

Take William Haver's pursuit of her, for example.

If it were Rachel, she would definitely not accept it but wouldn't firmly refuse either. Even if her boyfriend was unhappy, the two would definitely become good friends.

If Rachel has a disagreement with her boyfriend, she'll seek comfort, whether willingly or unwillingly, and the slightest Mars will likely ignite a major conflict.

Heather, on the other hand, took the initiative to approach Adam, hoping that he would step in and force William Haver to back down.

You know, William Havre has Tom Cruise's face and a playboy vibe, making him incredibly alluring to women.

Who is it?

When Mom heard this, her eyes lit up even more.
