Chapter 95 The Conditions Of Marriage
Taking her as a shy girl, Lucy pulled her over and sat down next to her.
During the dinner, Pei family took good care of Andy. Just as what Peter said, they treated her better than him.
But she knew very well that there was no such good thing in the world without any reason. Most of them had their own purposes. She was not like a wild cat that no one wanted, who could be at the mercy of some delicious food.
After drinking for a while, Lucy put down her chopsticks and looked at Andy, “I heard from Peter that you want to confirm the engagement as soon as possible, but are you afraid that we can’t treat the children well?”
Andy didn’t deny it.
Lucy nodded and looked back at William for approval. “It’s human nature. As a mother, you should always think about your child.”
She patted on the back of her hand and comforted her, “but don’t worry. Although Pei family is not as rich as those wealthy businessmen in the capital city, we are still a part of the rich family in River City. On behalf of Pei family, I promise you that you will marry with children and I will protect them for a lifetime.”
Hearing this, Andy kept silent for a while. Then she looked ahead and said slowly, “Mrs. He, Mr. Pei, I believe you two, but…”
She paused, turned her head to look at them, and said almost inhuman, “it’s hard to predict what will happen in the future. No one knows what will happen in the future. It’s not biological. There is always a layer between you. For the sake of the children, although some words are unpleasant, I have to say them.”
“Go ahead.” William and his wife listened intently.
“Although I don’t have a family background, I have never thought of becoming a Phoenix. I don’t think I’m inferior to others. As for the marriage, it’s a matter of convenience. If you want me to marry Peter, you have to promise me one condition.” Said Andy in a tough tone.
“Just say it.” William said anxiously.
But there was no smile in her eyes. She said coldly, “I want you to make my children the heir of Pei family, which must be notarized.”
As soon as she finished his words, even Peter, who had been absent-minded all the time, paused.
The heir of the notarization department represented the property of the Pei family. In the future, the property would be equally divided into six children of Andy.
It didn’t matter if those kids were his. They were just putting the money in another pocket.
But since they found the first child, they had been immersed in the joy of having a successor. They hadn’t carried out a scientific identification to confirm that it was the blood of Pei family.
If the final result proved to be wrong, it would be equivalent to giving up Pei family’s business.
Linda and William looked at each other in tacit understanding. Apparently, they were also thinking about this.
However, Andy had already made a judgment. This short hesitation was enough to prove the real purpose of Pei family.
Lina was the first to react and broke the embarrassment with a smile. “Okay, after you get engaged, I will go to notarize immediately. What do you think?”
“No,” said Andy in a tough way, “it must be notarized first.”
The atmosphere fell into a stalemate again. Lucy had planned to delay the time with the engagement so that they could arrange the paternity test, but at the moment, there seemed to be no other way.
“Miss. Jian, I understand your consideration, but I hope you can also think about it for us. It’s not difficult to add the names of several children to the heir. But if you don’t want to marry my son after the notarization, what can we Pei family do?”
It was William who spoke. After all, he was an experienced businessman. Of course, he wouldn’t be led when negotiating.
Seeing that she couldn’t answer, he said again, “how about this? The engagement and notarization will be arranged on the same day? In this way, the outsiders will know that I have not only married a good daughter-in-law, but also got six good grandsons. It will also be the children’s finding ceremony.”
After thinking for a while, Andy nodded and said, “Okay, let’s do it as soon as possible.”
William nodded slightly. Seeing that Lucy was still a little embarrassed, he patted her on the leg from the table, indicating her to calm down. Then, the smile on Lucy’s face returned.
They then raised their glasses to celebrate their agreement.
After a glass of wine, the waiter came forward to refill it.
She leaned against the chair behind her to make room for them. Out of the corner of her eye, she found that the waiter standing behind Peter was actually Jack.
She frowned and was confused. Wasn’t he a parenting teacher? Why did he become a waiter here again?
Jack was not surprised at all when he noticed her gaze. Instead, he raised his eyebrows at her complacently, with a touch of provocation in his eyes.
When she was wondering, Linda suddenly stood up and shouted to the door, “Bill, Bob.”
When Andy turned around, she met Bill’s dark eyes.
He was standing outside the door, and Bob was standing behind him. He craned his neck and looked inside curiously. “Aunt, what… What are you doing?”
Lucy smiled and said proudly, “what else can I do? Your good friend, Peter, is going to be engaged.”
“Engaged?” Bob asked in confusion, “with whom?”
Last time in Ginza, Peter said he wanted to be responsible, but he didn’t expect it to come so soon.
“You all know her. She is the designer who helped you solve the exhibition and new product release.” As she spoke, she turned to look at Bill and said in a reproachful tone, “you’ve heard what I said. From now on, Andy will be the daughter-in-law of the Pei family. Don’t find her trouble.”
Bob’s jaw almost dropped. What the hell was going on? The woman of Bill was engaged to Peter?
Did he live in the last century? Why didn’t he hear anything?
After a moment’s silence, Bill said flatly, “I won’t bother you. The client is waiting. Goodbye.”Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
Then he walked to another room.
Bob glanced at the room again and followed Bill sulkily.
When he walked up to him, he couldn’t help but whisper, “do you think that Peter is so shameless that he pried your woman without even saying hello?”
Ignoring his words, Bill quickened his pace, pushed the door open and walked in.
As soon as the door was opened, a client who had been waiting for a long time came up.
“Mr. Huo, Mr. Gu, you two finally come. But we wait for you so long!”
Bob stopped thinking and focused on dealing with these old foxes.
This was the table culture in China, where everything had to be discussed on the drinking table.
However, both sides were well prepared. They brought their assistants or women, and at most 2 glasses of wine would really be drunk in the end.
This was the usual practice, but for some reason, Bill didn’t refuse a toast from the other party.
In the end, Bob was afraid that he would have a stomach perforation, so he brazenly took him out and asked Jiang to send him home first.
Halfway through the car, he woke up and looked at the familiar street. Drunk Bill said, “don’t go home.”
Everywhere was fine. He didn’t want to go back to that place at all. There were traces of that woman everywhere.
