Since the Jeffersons had agreed to give them a seven-figure bridal price, it certainly wouldn’t be in the form of
cash. So, this bank card probably contained a few million.
After taking a look at the card, Fiona turned to Langdon, who then eyed his daughter with a hesitant expression.
Although they had no idea how much money the card contained, they didn’t think it was a small amount of money.
Fiona and Langdon had lived modestly for all their lives, so they were nervous to have received so much money all
of a sudden.
When Lola saw them like this, she said, “The card is yours now. Just take it.”
Trying to remain calm, Langdon replied, “Since we’re moving to live near your home, we won’t need so much
money anyway. We’ll keep the money first. It’ll still be yours in the future.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJust then, Logan and Lorraine came in with the gifts and placed them on the floor. After they chatted with Lola’s
parents for a while longer, they returned to the city. In the past, Lola would feel reluctant whenever she had to
leave her parents’ home. This time, however, she was relieved because her parents would be moving to live near
her soon.
After they were gone, the neighbors started streaming into the house.
While Fiona was cleaning up the table, one of the neighbors asked, “They were here to pass you the bridal price,
right? How much is it? Is it really a seven-figure bridal price?”
Some of them were taking a look at the gifts, but they were shocked upon hearing that it was a seven-figure bridal
price, so they turned to look at Fiona. “No way! How rich is their family to afford a seven-figure bridal price? Could it
be a bluff? Where’s the money? Show us!”
Ignoring the gossipy neighbors, Fiona picked up the empty cups and plates before entering the kitchen.
One of them was relentless and walked over to pat her shoulder. “Seriously, how much is it? They’ve promised to
give you a seven-figure bridal price, so they shouldn’t go back on their word. If that’s the case, you have to make a
scene at their place. You didn’t force them to make such a promise.”
Despite having received the card, Fiona had no idea how much money it contained, since the amount of money
wasn’t written on it. With a smile, she replied, “We’ve received it.
” One of them questioned, “How much is it? We have to know the exact figure!” Seated in his room, Langdon gazed
at the bank card in his hand. This thing is so light. I can’t believe it contains a few million. Since the neighbors
couldn’t get the answer from Fiona, they went to look for Langdon. Seeing the bank card in Langdon’s hand, one of
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmthem shouted, “Hey, Langdon! Is that the bridal price the Jeffersons have given you? Did they tell you how much is
in the card?” When the others saw this as well, they started gossiping. “You have to check the amount of money
inside the card. Don’t just believe what they tell you. We’re all modest villagers, but they’re smooth-talking business
people. Maybe they’ve told you that this card contains a few million, but there’s no money in it at all! After
everything is settled, it’ll be too late for you to regret it!” “That’s right. Quickly confirm how much money is in the
card. They told you it’s a seven-figure bridal price, but maybe there’s only ten thousand in this. You have to be wary
that they might have lied to you!” One jealous villager even said mockingly, “You’re just a modest family, so I don’t
think they’d be willing to give you so much money. If they had to fork out a few million, they would have looked for
a girl who came from an equally wealthy family. I don’t think they’re serious about accepting your daughter into
their family.” One of them motioned for the jealous villager to shut up. At this point, Langdon didn’t really care
about the value of the bridal price. Previously, Logan had sent them a large amount of gifts. Langdon told a friend
to check the prices online and found out that these gifts were worth more than a hundred thousand, which was a
significantly higher amount of bridal price than other families would ever receive. So, he didn’t think that Logan
would lie to him. Moreover, Logan and Lola had gotten their marriage certificate. .
