Chapter 614: Chapter 614 Think Carefully Before Marrying_1
Speaking of marriage proposals, Riley Montgory felt a bit embarrassed.
“To be honest, I was really shocked at the ti,” Riley said with a bitter smile, “He was handso and wealthy, a respected Justice, and I was just an ordinary nurse. Being proposed to by him really felt like a dream… like a pie falling from the sky.”
Purple Sumrs asked, “What happened then? Did you accept his proposal?”
“Why not accept?” Riley sighed softly, “I couldn’t find a reason not to… My family was overjoyed when they knew, saying I had made sothing of myself, and that it would an a better future for my younger brother and sisters. But on the night before the wedding, for so reason, I felt especially anxious. I asked myself, do I love this man?”
Purple Sumrs listened intently.
“… In fact, I didn’t know if I loved him; I just felt he was very excellent.”
Riley looked at Purple Sumrs and smiled gently.
“Ms. Sumrs might understand that feeling of uncertainty. During my school days, I vaguely experienced the bittersweetness of being in love. Later, when I started working, I was so tired every day, and the first thing that ca to mind when I saw a man was whether he could make my life a little easier. I’ve heard so people marry for love, but many others… They marry because the ti cos, and they’re at the age to do so.”
Riley sighed, “To marry for love is a true fortune.”
How many people spend their lifeti searching but never find the person they truly love.
Purple Sumrs thought of herself and Nathaniel Sumrs.
She felt she was sowhat like Riley, at a marriageable age with constant pressure from her family, and conveniently there was a man beside her who was suitable in all respects, so it naturally led to marriage.
As for love, it all seed like pretension, unless one truly t soone who could drive them wild; otherwise, it was difficult for anyone to be sure of their feelings.
Purple Sumrs then asked about so details of married life, to which Riley cooperated and elaborated carefully.
On the way back, Marcel Jefferson said to Purple Sumrs, “Hearing what you’ve said, I’m starting to want to get married too. It’s not easy in this life to find soone you like… Sigh, I don’t even know if Larissa Hamilton would agree to marry .”
Purple Sumrs laughed, “How long have you two been dating, what’s the rush?”
“We haven’t been dating long, but we’ve known each other for a long ti…”
Purple Sumrs looked out the car window and sighed faintly, “Better not rush it, wait until you’re sure before bringing it up.”
“I am sure, I really like Larissa Hamilton,” Marcel Jefferson said, “The more I get to know her, the more I love her!”
Purple Sumrs said, “But she may not be sure she likes you.”
Marcel Jefferson: “…”
…
The day of the negotiation ca in a blink, and after much discussion, they decided to hold it at Marcel Jefferson’s law firm.
Just as Purple Sumrs had expected, Norman Douglas brought two people, one was a lawyer, and the other was a paralegal.
But it was also sowhat unexpected, because Norman Douglas’s lawyer was a woman, and moreover, she was pregnant.
“That’s despicable,” Marcel Jefferson whispered to Purple Sumrs, quietly complaining, “He’s trying to play for sympathy with the child.”
“So tactics are inevitable, he’s just trying to fight for his interests,” Purple Sumrs smiled, unconcerned, and patted Marcel Jefferson on the shoulder, “Take care of Riley’s feelings, and don’t let her get swayed by them.”
“Right,” Marcel Jefferson nodded, then asked his assistant to invite Riley over and joined Purple Sumrs walking into the reception room.
Upon entering, Purple Sumrs saw Norman Douglas sitting erect, dressed formally, with deep-set eyes and fine lines at the corners of his mouth. He looked solemn and authoritative, giving off an oppressing aura.
“Ms. Sumrs,” Norman’s gaze fell heavily on Purple Sumrs, devoid of warmth, “So, this is what you call helping.”
