No matter how much the bridal price was, as long as Lola was happy, they would be content with it.
A moment later, Fiona came into the room in an attempt to retrieve the bank card.
One of the relentless neighbors said, “Hurry up and check how much money is in the card. I don’t believe they’re
able to fork out so much money at once. What’s wrong? Are you afraid that we’ll borrow money from you, so
you’re not willing to show us?”
With a frown, Fiona stopped what she was doing. It seems that before these people find out how much money is in
the card, they won’t be leaving anytime soon. If I insist on not showing them the amount of money, they may
spread false information to other villagers.
Fiona turned to gaze at her husband, who directly lay down on the bed. It seemed that he decided not to care about
this anymore.
After cursing her husband secretly, Fiona fell into a dilemma with the card in her hand. “Well, I don’t know how to
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtcheck the amount of money in this card.”
Sure enough, someone among them knew how to do this. The person took over the card and called the bank’s
careline. The neighbors were so fervent about this that Fiona couldn’t even get a word in.
Initially, Fiona was flustered, but seeing that the neighbors were more nervous than she was, she managed to calm
down instantly. Then, she went out to pick up the fruits that she had yet to finish preparing and returned.
The neighbor followed the instructions, then he was eventually connected to a customer service representative.
Nevertheless, Fiona couldn’t hear what the person on the other end was saying.
After the inquiry ended, the neighbor hung up the call. With a conflicted expression, he smacked his lips and
returned the bank card to Fiona.
In a curious manner, Fiona asked, “How much is it?”
The neighbor pursed his lips and said in an obviously jealous tone, “They’re really generous.”
Hearing this, Fiona understood that the bank card indeed contained a lot of money. Langdon, who was pretending
to be asleep, opened his eyes immediately.
At this point, the neighbors understood that the Jeffersons never went back on their word, so they stopped
pestering the Hunts and streamed out of the house.
After all of them were gone, Fiona closed the main door and returned to the bedroom.
Seated on the bed, Langdon asked with widened eyes, “Did you hear how much it was?”
Fiona shook her head. “I didn’t.
Just now, I asked the one who called the bank how much it was, but he just wouldn’t tell me. I guess it has to be a
lot of money. Otherwise, they would have mocked us.” Yeah. If it’s a petty amount of money in the card, they would
have laughed at us for sure. Gazing at the card, Langdon asked, “How rich do you think they are?” Fiona raised her
eyebrow. “How would I know? I haven’t been to their place.” Well, she’s right. We’ve learned about Logan mainly
from our contact with him. We don’t even know where he lives, Langdon thought. At the thought of this, both of
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmthem felt guilty. They had always seen themselves as responsible parents, but they didn’t even know where their
son-in-law lived. Basically, they had allowed their daughter to get married to Logan without much consideration.
After a pause, Fiona said, “You may take a rest first.
I’ll call Lola now and tell her that we’ll go over to their home someday.” They had awakened early in the morning
since the Jeffersons were coming to their house. Normally, Langdon would wake up late in the morning, but on this
day, he got up earlier than Fiona. However, he couldn’t have a shut-eye at the moment. After taking a rest on the
bed for a while, he decided to stroll around the backyard. On the other hand, Fiona hesitated for a long time before
calling her daughter. Still on the road, Lola picked up the call and asked in a languid manner, “Mom, what’s the
matter?” With a smile, Fiona asked, “Have you reached home?” “No. Did something happen?” Lola asked back.
Smacking her lips, Fiona replied, “It’s nothing serious. It’s just that we haven’t been to Logan’s home before, so
we’d like to visit his place one day. When will you be free? Your dad and I will go over on our own.” .
