We’ve only been together for about three months since we started dating. So, it sure is a sudden and
quick marriage for us, Lola thought.
Then, Fiona asked, “Did they mention the value of the bridal price?”
Lola replied, “No.”
Afraid that her daughter might be displeased with this question, Fiona hurriedly explained, “I don’t
mean to be rude. I just want to find out about it beforehand. Your dad had bragged to the neighbors
that we’d receive an expensive bridal price. So, when Logan comes over to pass us the bridal price,
our neighbors will surely come here to ask about it. If we get to know the value of it in advance, we’ll be
better prepared…”
Lola understood that her mother was trying to say that they would be better prepared to face the
neighbors if they knew the exact figure in advance. Not knowing the value of it either, Lola replied, “I
don’t know. They never talked about it.”
Fiona said, “Never mind. We shouldn’t ask them about it. No matter how much they’ll give us, we’ll just
take it. I’ll discuss with your dad how to stop our neighbors from coming over.”
Since there was nothing else to say, Lola hung up the call.
When she returned home in the evening, she never talked to Logan about the bridal price, and he
seemed to have forgotten about it as well.
On the day of the ceremony, Lorraine arrived at Logan’s home in her own car, which was crammed with
gifts.
Seeing this, Lola said, “You don’t have to pass more gifts to my parents. There’s one room in their
home that’s packed with gifts. They won’t be able to use them all.”
Without getting out of the vehicle, Lorraine replied, “It’s fine. I don’t think I should visit your parents
empty-handed. There aren’t a lot of gifts here anyway.”
There aren’t a lot of gifts here? Her car is filled with them! Lola thought.
Following that, Logan and Lola entered their own car as they headed for Lola’s hometown.
Langdon and Fiona were already waiting for them in the living room with desserts and fruits on the
table.
When they were about to reach Lola’s home, Lola could see that many neighbors were waiting outside
her home. Do these people have nothing better to do?
Lorraine’s lips curled up when she saw this.
After they entered the house, Fiona and Langdon told them to have a seat.
Normally, parents from both families had to be present when the ceremony took place. However, since
Old Mr. Jefferson had been under the weather, Lorraine had to do this on his behalf.
Already seated, Fiona and Langdon were fine with this arrangement. While Logan and Lorraine were
seated together, Lola took a seat beside her parents. They hadn’t unloaded the gifts from the car yet.
Just then, Lorraine placed a packet on the table and pushed it toward them. Although the packet was
bulging, it certainly didn’t contain a lot of cash.
With a calm expression, Fiona took over the packet and poured some tea for Logan and Lorraine.
Logan’s expression did not change when he saw it. After taking a look at the packet, Lola retracted her
gaze. The atmosphere didn’t seem to be affected by the gesture.
Then, Lorraine went on to talk about the wedding ceremony with Lola’s parents. Fiona and Langdon
were fine with the Jeffersons’ arrangement. As long as their daughter was happy, they didn’t have to
get involved in the preparation.
After that, Logan mentioned to them that he had prepared a house for them, which was near where
Lola and he would live.
Elated, Langdon said, “Of course we’d love to stay near your home. Lola was swamped with work
when she was a policewoman. Not long after she resigned from the job, she got married to you.
Honestly, it’s disheartening for us to think that she might leave us. Fortunately, you’re willing to let us
live near where you are. However, will we be a burden to you?”
“Of course you’re not a burden to us. We’re family now,” Lorraine replied.
Hearing that, Fiona laughed in a joyful manner.
When they were done with the discussion, Lorraine rose from the couch and told Logan to help her
unload the gifts from her car.
Lola had wanted to help them out, but Lorraine patted her on the shoulder and said, “Stay here to talk
to your parents. We’ll be leaving soon, so you won’t have much time to stay with them.”
Lola nodded and returned to the living room.
At that moment, Fiona had opened the packet and saw a pile of cash. Surprisingly, there was also a
bank card with the passcode written on it. Astonished by the sight of it, Fiona and Langdon then
realized that they had underestimated the value of the bridal price.
