Judith served the tea she had just made to Diane's family with a smile. "Felicia, please have some tea!"Felicia tried to smile. "Yes. I was quite surprised when Diane said she was staying here when I called her. I thought there was something wrong with my ears. And it turns out my ear is fine. You guys are really staying here!"She took a sip of the tea and spat it out. "Blek! What tea is this?"Judith was embarrassed. "It's Rooibos tea…""Tsk, tsk. Is it the one that comes in a loose pack of just maybe a few dollars or the one that costs more than ten dollars? Do you guys seriously drink this all the time? Dear me, this is way too cheap!" Felicia complained without thinking it would make Judith feel bad.Subsequently, Megan also took a sip of the tea. "Yuck! It really is disgusting. Totally a different class from the one we used to drink!""Um…Felicia, I'm sorry. But this is the tea we normally drink. I didn't know you were coming to visit today. Why don't I ask Maurice to buy
Megan was the one who answered. "Diane, why don't you take a guess? It's a piece of good news!"Diane smiled coldly. "Oh really? But I don't think either of you would actually come bearing good news to me!"Felicia smiled. "Diane. Your dad and I know you and Selene had suffered a lot for the past few years. But we did it for your own good. We were afraid you are going to suffer misery if you had the baby. Besides, you refused to tell us who the father of the child is. We had no choice. For the sake of the family, there was nothing we can do when Catherine wanted to kick you out of the house."Diane smiled faintly. "It's already in the past and I don't want to remember it. I just hope the future will get better and the same goes for our lives!"Felicia smiled. "Of course, it is going to get better. Do you know why we are here? We're here to bring you back.""Bring me back?" Diane was stunned and shocked. She did not expect the reason her parent and sister to come to visit her today
Megan had a disgusted look on her face. "I know you are living in this big villa now. But if you don't work hard, you are going to have trouble paying the maintenance fee in the future. And Selene is older now. She is at the age to study in preschool. Don't tell me you are going to enroll her in those lousy types of preschools. Education is very important for a child!""None of you need to worry about that!" Diane talked back immediately."You…!" Anger overpowered Megan so much that she could not find words to form a sentence.Diane's personality was different from how she remembered in her memory. Did Severin give a bad influence on Diane just within the few days he was back?Since Diane reacted that way, Felicia quickly switched her method by changing her expression and trying to appeal to Diane with emotion. She approached Diane, knelt in front of her, and grabbed her hand."Diane, I have been missing you dearly every night. Do you think I'm not worried about you? In fact, all
"Diane, what makes you think like that? Don't worry. No one is going to look down at him!" Felicia smiled embarrassingly.Her ultimate purpose was to trick Diane and Severin to move back together with them."That's right! We are a family. Family sticks together!" Judith smiled and said.Although she was worried Felicia would give trouble to her son when Severin moved, she still hope to see Diane could rekindle with her parent.Severin was touched by the words Diane said. "Honey, you don't have to care about my feelings. Don't worry. They are your family. I will try to avoid any conflicts with them."Diane nodded. "Dad, mom. Grandma treated me heartlessly in the past. She refused to listen to me even when I beggar her. I told her I will leave the house after I gave birth to the baby and rested well. She disagreed and shouted at me to make me leave. She was only going to accept me if I had an abortion. She forced me to leave my own house!"At this point, she was very determined. "M
Judith got scared by what Severin said and felt embarrassed. 'What's wrong with Severin? Why can't he just tolerate it? He shouldn't bluff and talk nonsense just because he is angry at what they said!'Both Maurice and her were embarrassed about what Severin said."Dad, mom! Stay out of this. I'm a man of my word!" Severin insisted. "Otherwise, how are they going to know Diane had made the right choice?""Hey kid, you really like to bluff, do you? Fine. Show it to me! I'm going to give you a month's time. Let's see if you really have the money. If you failed to do it, you need to promise me to get a divorce with my daughter and let her marry Edward! Do you dare to bet on it?" The anger had gotten into Felicia's head.She glared at Severin angrily. "Since you want to act, I'm going to expose you!""Fine! A month! But what if I fulfilled the dowry and threw Diane a wedding? What are you going to do?" Severin did not back down and glared back at Felicia.Felicia scoffed. "If you rea
"Done. You must hand over seven million dollars of dowry within a month! Haha. Let's wait and see. If you really did it, I'm going to do more than accept you as Diane's husband. I will be sure to call you gently and softly. I can even wash your feet!" Megan mocked.Obviously, she did not believe in the crap Severin said."Haha. Everyone heard that. My sister-in-law has specifically said she's going to wash my feet for me if I fulfill the promise!" Severin laughed again when he heard what Megan said. How stupid of Megan to say such a thing."Severin. Stop it! I know you don't have the money!" Diane's face was looking more and more terrible until she finally reprimanded him angrily."Don't worry. I'm not bluffing!" Severin said seriously.Felicia could not be bothered to waste any more time with Severin. It happened that she just recalled the purpose of this visit. She looked at Diane. "Diane, are you sure you are only willing to go back when grandma comes to pick you up personally
"Honey, what nonsense are you talking about? I really can afford to give your parent the amount I said. I want to prove to them that you did not marry the wrong guy. And I really want to throw you a wedding. I swear. Can you please trust me?" Severin put his hand to swear.The genuine look on his face did not show he was lying.Diane thought for a while and thought she had figured it out. "Oh, I know! Are you thinking about selling this villa? I think it costs at least twelve million dollars. The main thing is there are not many villas like this out in the market. I presume we can sell it at thirteen million dollars. Right?"Before Severin could explain, she continued, "Severin, if you are trying to prove yourself by selling this villa, do you think my parent will think otherwise of you? Leaving them aside, I will look down on you. Although this is a gift from Henry, do you think it is appropriate for us to sell it right after he gave it to us?"Severin did not know if he should be
Ever since Fabian Winter, the bank director, saw the figure in Severin's bank account, he had been suffering from insomnia. 'That amount of money! How could a person be able to save that amount of money?' he thought.It would be wonderful if he could keep a good relationship and connection with that man. The bad part was the man did not contact him even once after he gave the man his name card.While he was dozing off out of boredom in his office, his phone rang abruptly. It was an unknown number. He rejected the call immediately because he disliked having spammer call him. However, the same phone number was calling him again within a few seconds.Fabian answered the call. "Hello? Who is this? I'm not interested in taking a loan or planning to renovate and I don't…"Before he could finish his sentence, Severin sounded panicked. "Mister Fabian. I have a favor to ask. I'm Severin Feuillet.""Severin Feuillet? Who are you? Hmm, I don't remember your name. Do I know you?" Fabian tried
