The Osborne mom intentionally spoke like a guest, just to gloss over the issue of a "bride price."
Kenneth Osborne brought it up first, so she couldn’t remain silent any longer.
The Osborne mom had no choice but to laugh and say, "Our Kenneth getting married of course ans the bride price is already prepared. But shouldn’t you tell your aunt? She’s doted on you since you were little, you’re getting married now, you can’t keep her in the dark, right?"
Kenneth Osborne nodded, "Of course, I need to tell them, my aunt, uncle, and cousin, and see when they’re available. Once we set a wedding date, they’ll be the first to know."
"That’s good." The Osborne mom smiled warmly at Lawrence Winters, and tentatively asked, "So where will you live after you’re married? Why not live at your house? That large apartnt of yours can house so many people. You and your wife live together, and when you have kids, your mom can help take care of them."
Lawrence Winters smirked and clapped his hands, "That sounds great! Kenneth, after we get married, you can live at my house, and the kids can take my surna, how about it?"
Kenneth knew she was joking, and he had no intention of living at Lawrence Winters’ house after marriage, but just as he was about to say sothing to ease the situation, the Osborne mom protested.
"What did you say?! Why should the kids take your surna?! Kenneth is a part of our Osborne family! Of course, they need to have our surna!" The Osborne mom’s voice was especially loud.
Lawrence Winters spread his hands and said with a smile, "You’re the one who suggested Kenneth live at my place after we get married. For instance, the Spencer family just had a son-in-law move in; he rightly lives at his wife’s house, and surely their kids will have the surna Spencer."
Lawrence’s words almost rendered the Osborne mom speechless.
The Osborne mom had her eyes on the large apartnt of Lawrence Winters’ family, thinking since Gabrielle Winters had only one daughter and Nick Zeller had no kids, wouldn’t that big apartnt belong to Lawrence Winters?
Since it’s Lawrence Winters’, it would belong to Kenneth, and hence to their kids, eventually becoming part of their Osborne family.
But if the kids were to take the Winters surna, the Osborne mom wouldn’t agree.
The Osborne mom gave Lawrence Winters a glare, "Lawrence, that’s different. Blake Leaf made it clear that he’s moving into the Spencer family, so, of course, the kids need the Spencer surna. But did Kenneth ever say he’s joining your family? What does living sowhere have to do with anything?"
Kenneth Osborne didn’t want Lawrence to continue arguing with his mom, so he quickly took her hand and accepted the luggage sent down by Brooke Osborne, saying, "Mom, don’t argue anymore. I have a house, it’s small, but I bought it myself. After marrying Nora, we’ll live in my house. As for Nora’s house, that’s hers and has nothing to do with us, so don’t worry about it."
"How am I worried? For whom am I doing this? You ungrateful brat! Really throwing your mom away after getting a wife!" The Osborne mom couldn’t handle what Kenneth said and started to lose her composure.
Kenneth closed his eyes and said simply, "Mom, after Nora and I get married, we still need to care for her grandparents. Why don’t I just join her family, after all, whether I do or not, one of our kids will take the Winters surna, I’ve promised them that."
"What?!" The Osborne mom’s voice bood towards the sky, "A child with their surna?! That can’t be given away for free! We must get money to change the surna!"
"You needn’t worry about that." Kenneth nodded, pulling Lawrence Winters towards the door.
The Osborne mom wanted to catch up, but the Osborne dad held her back and signaled with his eyes, whispering, "Don’t go too far. The son is grown up, do you think he’s Brooke, listening to everything you say?"
"He’s my son, if he doesn’t listen to , should he listen to that little vixen?" The Osborne mom fud, annoyed.
She originally liked Lawrence Winters a lot, but Kenneth’s defense of her annoyed her.
Your own son suddenly speaks up for another woman, many mothers would feel temporarily bewildered.
The Osborne dad saw it clearly and gave her a stern look, saying, "That’s Kenneth’s wife! You better know your place! Kenneth is your son, so why are you competing with his wife? Lost your mind? Or do you think I’m dead?!"
Though the Osborne dad didn’t often lose his temper, when he did, the Osborne mom still feared him sowhat.
Her lips moved slightly, then she turned around and went upstairs, saying, "I’ll call my sister."
When Kenneth Osborne and Lawrence Winters were heading to the airport, the Osborne mom called her sister, Joan Lawson.
Joan Lawson was an obstetrics and gynecology doctor at River City Hospital and was just about to start her shift.
