"It's alright." Chris took the things in Laura's hand and walked forward. "They divorced when I was 10 years old. I grew up with my grandmother after that. You will only have to meet my grandmother tomorrow. You don't need to give her this whiskey, you can save it for me."Chris kept an indifferent face. It seemed that he didn't care about if his parents were together or not.Laura pursed her lips.No children would hope for their parents to be divorced. Laura looked at Chris and wanted to comfort him, but didn't know what to say.'His parents were divorced when he was 10. He's 30 now, so 20 years has passed.'In the end, Laura reached out a hand and patted the back of Chris's hand to comfort him.Her fingers were soft and white, and so was her palm. When her hand landed on the back of Chris's hand, he felt a little ticklish. He couldn't help but look at Laura with a smile.Laura chuckled in return.On the morning of the next day.Laura got up early and cooked breakfast. After

With that said, Jennifer stood up and brought the whiskey that Laura had bought over to the dining table.Shona was so angry that her hands were trembling. The smile on Nicholas's face froze as well. However, he quickly smiled and said, "Sure, we drink whatever Gary likes."Nicholas took the bottle of whiskey and poured a glass for Gary."Chris, do you want some?" Nicholas asked Chris and held the bottle up for him."No, thank you. I have to drive later on," said Chris.Seeing this, Nicholas didn't insist. He then poured Luke a glass as well.Gary picked up the whiskey glass on the table and clinked glasses with Nicholas before taking a couple of sips. He then complimented, "Not bad. Not bad at all."Shona gave Gary a puzzled look. "I thought you often drink this at home, right?"His actions just now looked like he was drinking whiskey for the first time. He took a sip and found the taste very nice, so he immediately took another sip."Huh? Yes, I do drink it quite often. Howe

"Why not?" Seeing that Jennifer raised her voice, Shona raised hers as well. "At first we did decide to give you 40 thousand dollars as bride price, but we didn't say that the car had to be under Jessica's name, right? A car that's worth more than 40 thousand dollars is already under Jessica's name. What else do you want?""Is the car for Jessica? The car may be under Jessica's name, but it's also for the child, isn't it? Is the child in Jessica's womb going to be a member of the Walker family or the Holland family?" Jennifer wasn't backing down at all. She stood up from her chair and looked at Shona angrily."How can that be the same?" said Shona. "The child isn't born yet. If the child is born, then I won't have any problems putting it under the child's name. However, the child isn't born yet. What's your dowry anyway? Is the dowry the bed covers and the worthless washbowls?""What are you calling worthless? Do you want this marriage to continue or not?" Jennifer slammed the table

After the Holland family had left, Laura and Chris didn't stay either. They were about to leave.Before they left, Chris went to take a call.Luke was lying on the sofa and texting Jessica with a smile on his face. When he saw that Laura was about to leave, he stopped her."Wait a sec, sis." Luke locked his phone and put it on the sofa. "There's something I want to tell you."Luke first raised his head and looked out the door. When he was sure that Chris wasn't around, he continued, "Lend me some money."In the past, Luke would never call her "sis", he would just call her by her name.Laura knew that Luke wanted to borrow money as soon as Luke called her "sis"."I don't have any.""What are you talking about?" Luke furrowed his brows. "Today is your payday, if I remember correctly. How can you not have any money? You would always give us some money every month in the past, but you haven't been doing so for the past few months. Now that I want to borrow some money from you, you

"Chris, watch your attitude towards Helen." Lewis was dissatisfied with Chris's attitude. He led Helen Foster inside the house.Lewis first scanned the room and placed the briefcase in his hand on the sofa. He took his jacket off and walked up tot he dining table. He then sized Laura up and down. "You're Chris's newlywed wife?"Laura noticed how Lewis addressed Madam Jacobs when he walked into the house.'He's Chris's father?' wondered Chris.Laura looked at Chris. When she saw that Chris had a dark face, she didn't make a sound."Is this your attitude when an elder is talking to you? Where are your manners?""That's enough!" Madam Jacobs slammed the cutlery in her hand on the table She raised her head and looked at Lewis in the eyes. "Who said you could come back? Didn't I tell you that if you choose to be with this woman, then you're no longer part of the Jacobs family?"Helen was the person who caused Lewis to cheat on his wife during their marriage.Because of her, Lewis ig
