"Chloe, you're back?"
"Mom, is dad back?"
Sheilya put down the magazine. "Yeah. You said that you were going to find Isaac, but you suddenly called your father and asked him to go home." As she said this, she took Chloe's hand and let Chloe sit next to her. "I asked you on the phone but you didn't tell me. What on earth is going on?"
Chloe was not in a hurry to answer her and just said, "I'll ask dad to come here first."
"Chloe, why are you looking for me?" Waddell asked, as he went downstairs.
"Dad, come here and sit down first."
Waddell walked to the sofa and sat down. "Go ahead. What's the matter?"
Sheilya looked at Chloe and patted her hand. "Tell me about your decision. Have your dad and I ever not supported you?"
Chloe pursed her lips. "Dad! Mom! I want to marry Isaac."
She had come up with this idea a long time ago, but Isaac didn't agree. At this time, she couldn't care much. He wanted to leave her. If she didn't try her best, what should she do if he really left her?
However, getting married was a very important thing, and she should talk to her family. Moreover, it would be better to let her parents talk to Old Master Bai.
Waddell was stunned for a moment. "Why do you suddenly want to get married?"
Sheilya echoed, "Yep. Besides, even if you want to get married, you should ask Issac to mention it in front of us. How can you mention it yourself? You're a girl." She reached out and touched Chloe's forehead. "You've got some nerve." Although she said so, her tone was so doting.
"Your mother is right. Although you two are engaged and we know that you like him, I think it's better for Isaac to bring this up in person. How can you... mention it on your own?" "I don't care!" Chloe said in anger. "This is a new era. What's the point of caring about so much? I've been with him for so long, and we've been engaged for a long time. He... You should know that he wants to get married to me after he has a successful career. However... I don't want to wait any longer."
"Chloe." Sheilya took a look at Waddell and then said to Chloe, "You suddenly said that you want to get married, and you... Let me ask you. Is it because Isaac has done something that makes you feel insecure?"
Chloe smiled, as if nothing had happened. "Mom, what are you thinking about? Issac and I have known each other for several years. Don't you know what kind of person he is? I just... Today one of my good friends got married, and I thought a lot. Besides, I'm not in my early twenties now, and I've been with him for so long. I like him and I want to marry him. Isn't it normal?"
"His current career may not have reached the level he wants, but he is the best in my opinion. He can get married before settling down, right? In fact, it's pretty good, isn't it?" "Dad, you know that he is very excellent. I am going to marry him, anyway. It is not bad to marry him earlier."
After that, she turned to look at Sheilya, who was next to her. "Mom, moreover..." She bit her lip. "You know what has happened between us. I don't want to wait anymore."
Sheilya immediately understood what she meant and nodded.
Waddell looked at them, who sat opposite him suspiciously. "What are you talking about?"
Maxwell nodded with a smile, "That's right."
Waddell coughed softly, "Well, Issac and Chloe have been engaged for a long time. Isaac is already in his thirties, and Chloe is twenty five years old. Sheilya and I don't think it's appropriate to delay their marriage. What do you think?"
Although Waddell didn't make it clear, Maxwell knew clearly why they met him. He laughed heartily, "Ha- ha! Waddell, you have the same idea as me. Although Chloe I didn't watch Chloe grow up, I know her very well because we're business partners. I am very satisfied with her. But..." He hesitated for a moment and seemed to be in a dilemma, "Issac is a little stubborn. I have mentioned it many times before, but his temper is hot. Alas!" In front of outsiders, he should act like a kind father.
Sheilya said with a smile, "Maxwell, back then, we moved to A city. Although we didn't move here all because of Chloe, it accounted for more than half of the reason. Moreover, Chloe and Issac have..."
Before she could finish her words, Chloe pulled the hem of her clothes.
Sheilya paused and smiled awkwardly, "I think that they will get married sooner or later. It's better to get married earlier."
"Yeah." Waddell said, "We know what Isaac is thinking about. In fact, we shouldn't have taken the initiative to mention it. However, Chloe is not young. It's not a good idea to delay it. Besides, Isaac is going to work in Bai Company, and he has had a better development."
With a kind smile on his face, Maxwell nodded and agreed with Waddell, but he did not say much.
Waddell was somewhat embarrassed because Maxwell didn't give him a definite answer. As Chloe's father, he took the initiative to talk to Maxwell with his family, but Maxwell put on air in front of him.
He was awkward and angry, but he did not show his emotions on his face. He said in a somewhat unfriendly tone, "If we keep delaying it, Chloe's time will be wasted. Even if Chloe can wait, we can't afford to lose face. After all, my family is quite respectable. Am I right, Maxwell?"
