"I'm excited to meet my date," Lilian said in excitement. Her online boyfriend Hugh had sent a message to meet her. She had met him through an online dating app a few months ago and was looking forward to meeting him in person. On the day she was to meet Hugh, he suddenly called, saying that he had an urgent business meeting to attend to, and he would be back the next day. However, his servants would attend to her during her stay. He gave her his residential address.
Lilian went to the address that Hugh had provided and pressed the doorbell. A man in his late twenties and a middle-aged lady answered the door.
"Hi, my name is Lilian, and Mr. Hugh Kam gave me this address," Lilian introduced herself.
"Hi, Miss Lilian. Mr. Hugh had informed us that you will be coming. Come on in," the lady said. She helped Lilian with some of her luggage as she entered the house.
"I'm Lucas, and this is my mother, Rachel. We're both Mr. Hugh's servants. He has instructed us to take care of you during your stay, so we'll be your servants for the week," introduced the man.
"I don't need servants, but if you're my friends, I'll accept it," Lilian shaked both Lucas and Rachel's hands and said. They gave her a tour around the house and showed her the guest room. As Lucas and Rachel were preparing dinner, Lilian offered to help. Within half an hour, dinner was ready and the dining table was set.
"Why don't you join me for dinner?" Lilian suggested. Lucas and Rachel joined her in eating. As they ate, Lucas and Rachel shared about how Hugh had taken them in when they had just arrived in Hong Kong to start a new life and were robbed of all their savings. Back then, they ended up having to beg for money after being robbed. Hugh found them on the streets and offered them jobs as his servants, with a good pay and accommodation. Lilian shared about how she had experienced poverty during her childhood when her father's business failed, and how her parents had worked several jobs to put her through school. As such, she could understand how it was like to be poor. They spent the next few hours chatting about their peronal experiences.
The next day, Lucas and Rachel said they were going to the market. Lilian received a call from Hugh, saying that he would be returning. Just then, Lucas and Rachel returned. Lucas revealed that he was the real Hugh, and the middle-aged lady is his aunt Rachel, who had raised him since the death of his parents, and he did not hire servants.
"It was a test and you passed," Hugh declared. He then revealed that he became a successful businessman with support from Rachel, but he had several bad experiences with women, who loved him only for his money. As such, after discussing with Rachel, they decided to pretend to be servants to test the true nature of Hugh's prospective bride. After hearing the whole story, Lilian quickly forgave Hugh and Rachel, saying that she still wanted to be with Hugh even if he was a servant.
Hugh and Lilian started dating. After 50 dates, Hugh proposed to Lilian, who agreed. They got married, happy that they had found each other.
