Chapter 1081: Chapter 1061: Asking for a Hand in Marriage
Rio Gordon saw that Senna Leon wasn’t hurt, then let go of her hand and turned to walk towards Mrs. Leon with relief.
“Please have a seat, Young Master Gordon!”
With such an esteed guest, Mrs. Leon naturally offered a thousand tis the service. Observing the man’s deanor just now, a woman’s intuition could still sense that he had a bit of interest in her daughter, “If Young Master Gordon has anything to say, please speak directly!”
“Just call
Rio!”
Rio Gordon smiled faintly.
Yes, smiled. Since Senna Leon had t him, she had never seen him smile; he always had an indifferent face. So, when Senna Leon witnessed this scene, she even doubted her own eyes.
And he even allowed her mother to call him Rio. Was this man sick?
Suddenly like this, it was too much for her little heart!
“Well… if Young Master Rio has anything to say, just say it. Whether it’s possible or not, I will try my best!”
If people knew that Young Master Gordon was a guest in her ho, that was a matter of increasing prestige. Who knows, maybe tomorrow there would be more partners, so Mrs. Leon was ready to fulfill any requests he had.
“Actually, it’s not really anything, but…”
Rio Gordon didn’t know why, even though he had spent a long ti preparing, but when it ca to saying it, it was still hard, “I want to marry Senna. I wonder what your thoughts are?”
I want to marry Senna?
I want to marry Senna!
Senna Leon felt as if there were two voices echoing in her ears, one on each side. Had Rio Gordon gone mad, or had she gone mad?
It took Mrs. Leon a very long ti to fully comprehend what was said. Her gaze lingered on her daughter for a while before falling on Rio Gordon, “Young Master Rio, do you know what you are saying?”
Even if they had known each other before, Senna Leon had just co back and brought a child with her. For the esteed eldest son of the Gordon family to propose marriage just like that, as a mother, she was truly shocked.
“I want to marry Senna and would like to seek your opinion!”
“Shouldn’t you be seeking Senna’s opinion?”
“Senna has no objections!”
Rio Gordon chose to approach Mrs. Leon precisely because he didn’t intend to give Senna Leon a chance to object, “Of course, my dad and mom will co to the Leon family to formally propose, and we won’t skimp on the proper traditions!”
“This…”
Mrs. Leon looked helplessly towards her daughter, only to find her daughter totally smitten, not even aware of her gaze, all her attention fixed on Rio Gordon’s face, her expression nearly obsessed…
Was there even a need to ask?
The answer was obvious!
“But Senna still has a child with her, though this child isn’t…”
“Her child is my child. In the future, I will cherish her child as my own!”
Before Mrs. Leon could finish her intended statent, Rio Gordon interrupted her, “My sister has three kids, and I’ve always liked children. It’ll be lively to have them all together!”
This…
With that said, what more could Mrs. Leon say? Looking at her daughter, who seed utterly captivated, Mrs. Leon finally understood why this girl had never dated—she had been holding a torch for the esteed eldest son of the Gordon family.
“If Senna has no objections, naturally, I have no objections either!”
Matching the Leon Family with the Gordon Family, it always seed like a reach. Although the Gordon family had a good reputation, it was just that—a reputation. With only one daughter, naturally, there were concerns about how challenging it would be to be a daughter-in-law in such a wealthy family. When Mrs. Gordon first married Chairman Gordon, Mr. Gordon’s father did not acknowledge her, creating a storm of controversy that nearly resulted in a fatality.
Although it’s all in the past now, she couldn’t completely disregard it!
“However, Rio, as for the marriage, it’s enough that Senna decides. But our Leon family is ultimately not on par with your Gordon family. Compared to your sister Miss Gordon marrying into the Thompson family, which is a suitable match, our family clearly falls short. If Senna truly marries into your family, she won’t…”
They were all sensible people; there was no need to spell it out. Rio Gordon was also aware of what Mrs. Leon was worried about.
“Aunt, you don’t need to worry. Since I’ve decided to marry Senna, naturally I won’t let her suffer the slightest grievance. If Rio Gordon marries, he will treat her well for a lifeti. Moreover, my mommy and my sister liked her very much since she was little. If you don’t believe , you can ask Senna!”
“Senna, my mommy and sister really like you, right? Back when you were at our house!”
Uh?
Ah!
“Yes, Mrs. Gordon and Miss Gordon are both very nice; they even kept
for dinner!”
What Senna Leon was saying was the truth—they were all nice, except for him, the one who wanted to drive her away!
Senna had been to the Gordon family’s house as a child and had dinner there?
Suddenly, Mrs. Leon recalled the sight of Rio Gordon bringing her daughter ho one day. So it turned out…
“Then I’m relieved!”
“Since you agree, aunt, I’ll have my dad and mommy co over tomorrow to formally ask for her hand!”
Since they had settled the matter, Rio Gordon naturally saw no need to continue staying there, lest the woman have a change of heart at the last mont. Now that he had settled things with her mother, she really didn’t have much to rebut.
Thus, the marriage was verbally settled. It was ti for him to go back and have his dad and mommy co and formally propose.
Rio Gordon had just gotten into the car when a ssage ca through on his phone. As Rio started the car, he glanced at the phone’s screen placed on the passenger seat; the na displayed was “Annoying Ghost.”
Senna Leon?
Indeed, Rio Gordon swiped open the phone and discovered the ssage was from a phone number he had been using for the past six years, still holding the contents of the ssages?
Yes, it was definitely this phone.
Rio Gordon didn’t have many contacts in his phone and didn’t like changing his number. His work phone, managed by his assistant, and his private phone, consisted of a few friends and family. He had kept all the contact information without changing the phone for so many years.
It was a specially crafted phone with a superior tracking function, made particularly for him by Michael Gordon and Oliver Thompson. As such, any text still in it, especially from conversations six years ago, would appear whenever Senna Leon texted.
Had she not changed her number after six years?
The opened ssage read, “Why suddenly decide to marry ?”
This question…
For a mont, Rio Gordon truly didn’t know how to respond, so his slender fingers slid across the screen, inputting a line of text: It’s not sudden!
Then he hit send!
This was sothing he had been thinking about for the past five years!
“It’s…”
“We’ll talk tomorrow!”
After sending this ssage, Rio Gordon tossed his phone on the passenger seat. Dealing with soone who asked such inconsiderate questions was better handled by simply not replying.
