CHAPTER 28: MEETING THE IN-LAWS

For Audrey, the weekend came sooner than imagined.

Dmitri visited the Blaydes’ mansion to meet Audrey's parents regarding his marriage proposal. 

"We live in a society in which the criteria for the selection of the perfect partner can turn out very differently," Mr. Blaydes commented while interacting with Dmitri at his home- his den.

"You're right, Mr. Blaydes. Our world is driven by consumerism that often prevents us from seeing the things that really matter," Dmitri replied politely.

"While some are looking for a better half with a great personality, others may choose their partner by economic factors. But is it the definition of love ?" Audrey asked, looking at her Dad dead in the eye, silently asking him to be lenient with her lover. 

However, her father chose to ignore her and listened to what Dmitri had to say.
