Chapter 1411

“I’m not asking you to return the debt with me! I’m trying to make the numbers, and I might just be able to do that.”Lulu analyzed the situation for Larry. “We’ve been together for so long. Do you think I know nothing about you? You bust your pay the moment you receive it! You might need to use your credit card for this month’s living expenses. You even had to dig into the money your parents have been saving up for you just to buy a diamond ring for me! That was probably the last stash you have, right?“Where else are you going to get money from?“Larry Webb, let me tell you this. I’m getting married so that I can live a better life! I refuse to take on a single cent of debt!“As for your parents taking the initiative to move, that’s them being sensible!“Otherwise, I wouldn’t marry a fatass like you!“As for the betrothal gift, 150,000 dollars! Nothing less!‘I must keep it for my brother to use when he gets married!”The phone was on loudspeaker mode, and Larry’s parents som

She would continue being with him.“But, I can be his secret lover,” Lulu said again. She said it so casually, but Larry was thunderstruck. Blood rushed to his brain, and his temples started throbbing. “Larry, I love you, and I can’t bear to see you hurt,” Lulu went on. “If I become this man’s lover, your parents won’t need to move out of their house. You wouldn’t need to be troubled over money, too.”She started crying.“My parents wouldn’t force us to fork out 150,000 dollars, either. If I don’t get married, my brothers won't be able to get a share of my betrothal gifts.”Larry wasn’t cunning, but he wasn’t a complete fool either.He was simply too well-protected by his parents, and seldom encountered such a sly and conniving person since he was a child. In addition, most of his colleagues at work were technical geeks. Everyone spoke using technical terminologies, and few beat around the bush. He quickly understood what Lulu actually meant, despite her saying she wanted

They had to help plan their son’s wedding.Things like the hotel and banquet had to be properly arranged.These things needed money. There was a lot to consider—they needed a wedding host, a wedding gown and suit, as well as decorations. They did some preliminary calculations, and the cost came up to around 30,000 dollars.And yet, that amount wasn’t even enough for them to put up something presentable. If they wanted something grand, they would have to spend no less than 75,000 dollars for something barely passable. To hold a grand, unforgettable wedding would require even more. They didn’t want to let Lulu down, so they told their son, “We’ll pay for all the wedding expenses. We’ll give you all the wedding gifts we received, so just get married in peace.”Larry nodded. “Okay. Thank you, Mom, Dad.”He couldn’t bring himself to tell them that he had broken up with Lulu. Despite all that happened between him and Lulu, all he needed to do was to find another daughter-in-law fo

Chapter 1414

Sue didn’t expect Cecilia’s blind date to do so well. Since Cecilia believed her lies and was willing to break up with Noel, Sue had been trying to find suitable men in Richburgh for Cecilia.However, she wasn’t able to find anyone from the heirs of wealthy families, or outstanding students from the Chimmery and Jarvis families.Finally, a friend of hers told Sue about the café. “That café is the most popular blind date venue for young people right now. Find someone suitable, and let Cecilia meet him there.“They’re all youngsters who are there for a blind date. Even if they end up not liking each other, they can be friends and things won’t be awkward between them. It’s pretty good.”And so, Sue took on her friend’s suggestion.For the sake of her daughter’s future happiness, she made a trip to the café to confirm that the people attending the blind dates there weren’t bad first. Then, she selected an ex-student of hers.He was a man of few words, a decent-looking lad who was

He looked like a miser through and through.Sue didn’t like him one bit.“He is definitely not my ex-student!” she cried, aghast. To make things clear, Sue called her ex-student to ask about his impression of Cecilia.To her surprise…“My apologies, Mrs. Chimmery. I didn’t manage to make it to the blind date because I was caught up with something. I’m still stuck in an academic conference right now. I wanted to call you after it ended, but I didn’t expect…” Sue knew about the academic conference he was talking about. It was an international meeting that only people of relative academic accomplishments could attend. No one could decide how long the meeting went on for. Everyone at the meeting worked in the same industry, and that was likely the reason that the meeting dragged on longer than expected. “It’s not your fault,” Sue said understandingly. She didn’t tell him about Cecilia going for the blind date today, and hung up after some small talk.Sue had always been magnan

Sue had never come across someone as rude as this boss. He was yelling so loudly at her, at a decibel that exceeded what she was used to. Her hand trembled in fright.Knowing that her daughter was standing right next to her, Sue forced herself to remain composed.Cecilia, however, thought her mother was just like a little girl. To think Sue would get so easily frightened by someone yelling.Cecilia was about to take over the call, when the man said over the phone, “It’s true we’re running a business, but there are times when mistakes happen. Since things have come to this point, just don’t come again.”With that, he hung up. The phone beeped, leaving Sue and Cecilia staring silently at each other.Cecilia was shocked, too. Was that really the man who ran such a booming business?!She heard that the café was located on a plot of land where all past businesses that opened there closed very shortly after. The café was the only business that stood strong, raking in the money in the v

He thought he must have been seeing things, but after checking and double-checking, it really was a text from Cecilia—his blind date earlier!The thought of Cecilia’s perfect figure and innocent yet sensuous features excited Larry.If he could really bring Cecilia home, Lulu would be nothing to him! His parents would completely forget about her.He would keep their daughter-in-law by their side and in the Webb family forever!In fact…Larry looked at the washroom behind him.When the time came…To keep Cecilia by his side forever, he would smash her head against the wall of the washroom. The bright red blood trickling down her beautiful face would make it even more stunning.

Chapter 1418

The sky had turned dark by the time Noel was done with work.He stood up, feeling his shoulders all stiff from sitting down and focusing on work over a long time.The coffee on the table had turned cold. That was when he realized he didn’t even drink a sip of it.His lips were dry and chapped, desperate for something to drink. He raised his hand, and called politely for a waiter, “Hello, I need more coffee please.”The waiter was very busy, and didn’t have the time to come by.Just then, Ginny came down from the second floor and spotted Noel immediately.He looked outstanding and was dressed in a suit, completely unlike an insurance agent. In fact, he looked more like a business elite.He was the blind date of that beautiful young lady from just now.Ginny remembered that good-looking couple very clearly. Out of the blind dates today, they looked the most outstanding.By the time Ginny was done with her tasks, Cecilia had left. She therefore didn’t see Cecilia leaving with Lar

Chapter 1419

Although they did have a good chat, Cecilia was all that occupied Noel’s heart. He didn’t have any intention to start on a new relationship.All he needed to do was carry out what Diana wanted him to do.He didn’t say much, neither did he have the intention of continuing to chat with Ginny. “I’m sorry, I came down to work before the blinds lifted.”So that was what happened!No wonder they didn’t see each other! They really didn’t!That lady who fancied him must have been heartbroken.The usually cold Ginny transformed into a super gossip monger. “I see!”She decided to help them out. She tapped on her tablet and showed him their group photo just now. “It’s this lady. How does she look? If you like her, I can give you her contact number!”She was already trying her best to imitate the cute tone that normal girls spoke in, lest others found that she was a heartless murderer.However, Noel didn’t want to respond to Ginny. He rubbed his nose in slight disdain, and looked away

Ginny nodded. “Yes.”Noel was flabbergasted.How did this happen? Did Diana arrange for him to have a blind date with Cecilia?Noel felt light-headed, but he was sure Diana couldn’t possibly do something like this. Even if she wanted to use this method to make him and Cecilia open up and resolve the misunderstanding between them, Cecilia wouldn’t agree to it.“Are the blind dates matched based on the customers’ original preferences, or based on your random matching after the participants register for it?”Ginny said, “It’s based on the customers’ original preferences, but…”She pushed her glasses up her nose bridge, and went on, “Due to my boss’s mistake, this time round, some blind dates didn’t make it in time. Unfortunately, we couldn’t get the list of absentees as my boss was drunk. Because of that…”“You arranged some couples at random?”Ginny nodded, then shook her head. “Some were arranged at random, but we had no choice. Also…”Ginny recalled the words of her unreliable
