Chapter 167 He Is Very Persistent About His Daughter
The women who attended the noble banquet in Country E would wear very expensive jewelry, but they would wear clothes of big brands. In most novels and TV dramas, those nobles would compare whose clothes were newly designed. It was bullshit.
The real noble clothing was custom-made by hand workshops.
It would be honorable to wear a dress left behind by one’s grandmother. It represented the glorious history of one’s family.
This was something that money could not buy.
Scarlett put on her gloves in the car and adjusted her gorgeous white dress. Her current makeup was very much like that of a noble lady when she didn’t speak.
“Mike! Darling!”
Under Mike’s sharp eyes, she took the initiative to change the way she addressed him.
“What?”
“Do I look alright?”
She didn’t know where Mike got her this dress.
Although she looked very beautiful and her waist looked slender, she felt that she was going to choke.
“Just so so.”
Scarlett curled her lips. She had long been used to his proud personality. But why couldn’t he just admit that she was pretty?
“I feel that these old clothes are so tight that I can’t breathe. Darling, when we got married, you also let me wear the old wedding dress, right?” She patted her belly.
“This dress has been passed down for three generations. If you are going to gain weight, our daughter will blame you after she grows up.”
It was also a blessing to pass on the dress and wedding dress. Mike was too lazy to explain it to the dumb cat.
“How do you know that it must be a daughter? Maybe I will give birth to a few sons.” Scarlett retorted.
Mike suddenly braked and turned to glare at her coldly.
“Three daughters and one son. It’s better to not have a son.”
His serious expression almost made Scarlett feel that she had done something unforgivable.
“Why are you so serious? Besides, I may not give birth to your child.”
Under Mike’s cold eyes, Scarlett spoke in a low voice.
“Take back what you just said!”
“It’s just a joke, what are you doing?”
“Take it back!”
“Alright, I’ll take it back,” Scarlett recalled that he had gone crazy and sat on the cliff.
When Mike went crazy, she couldn’t try to reason with him. She should listen to him. It was her experience.
Only then was Mike satisfied. The car was close to the manor.
Scarlett whispered, “Why do you want so many daughters? I think a boy and a girl are perfect.”
“Three daughters and one son!” Mike was quite insistent.
“Alright, alright. We will have daughters. You sound as if it’s real.”
Mike snorted. How could it not be true? He tried hard every day, alright?
This dress was from his grandmother, and it would be passed to his daughter sooner or later.
“One girl is enough. Too many girls will annoy you.” Scarlett said in a small voice while Mike was parking the car.
“Three, not one less!” Mike knocked on her head.
In the face of Scarlett’s inconceivable expression, he said generously.
“At least two daughters!”
So…
It sounded like a deal.
At the banquet, Anna, dressed in gorgeous clothes, raised her head and was waiting for Mike. She nervously asked her mother beside her.
“Will Myke come?”
“Of course! How could he miss your 20th birthday?”
Anna’s family was confident that they could win Mike’s heart.
It was not only because Mike would inherit the title of Marquis.
It was also because of the Abraham Group’s huge wealth. To Anna, even if Mike did not have those things, he was still her favorite.
When Mike appeared, Anna put on a bright smile.
However, she was stunned because she saw Scarlett standing beside Mike.
Why did Scarlett appear! Anna glared at Scarlett.
Mike and Scarlett attracted the attention of many people.
The diamonds on the diamond crown on her head and her ceremonial dress that symbolized her identity instantly attracted a lot of attention.
Scarlett was a little nervous being stared at by so many foreigners.
She was not particularly short, but she looked tiny.
Mike shook her hand and asked Scarlett not to be nervous.
Scarlett calmed herself down and thought about the etiquette she had once learned, following Mike with a smile.
Anna was hoping that Scarlett would make a fool of herself because Scarlett had never seen such a noble scene.
But unexpectedly, Scarlett’s behavior was very elegant.
Anna couldn’t find any mistakes that Scarlett made.
During the opening dance, Anna hoped that Mike could invite her, and when Mike came over, her heartbeat was racing.
However, Mike suddenly turned around in front of her and walked towards Scarlett, who was tasting food.
Anna’s expression was very ugly.
She saw that Scarlett seemed to whisper something in Mike’s ear, and she felt that Scarlett was mocking her.
In fact, Scarlett didn’t.
“The food is really awful.”
It was rare for Mike that he didn’t talk back to Scarlett. He nodded. The food here was really awful.
“I feel that they’re here to eat tableware. Look at how dazzling the tableware is, but no matter how beautiful and noble one is, it’s not good to have no connotation.”All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.
Anna heard the last sentence. She thought that Scarlett was mocking her.
The most infuriating thing was that when Mike passed by Anna, he echoed Scarlett’s words.
“It is difficult to hide the essence of a bumpkin.”
“Why is your description so accurate? It’s so disgusting that I want to vomit!”
As a great cook, Scarlett couldn’t bear to see someone waste food.
But what she did not expect was that Mike was talking to her about a different thing.
Anna smashed her glass on the ground.
The wine was on the skirt.
Her behavior attracted the attention of many people, and it was enough for the upper class to gossip for a long time.
Her mother realized that her daughter was rude and quickly smiled apologetically.
“Why are you so careless? Hurry up and change your dress.”
After Anna ran away, her mother looked at Scarlett, who was dancing with Mike.
Mike was tall. He hugged Scarlett, who was much shorter than him. They danced the waltz. Scarlett’s dancing skills were perfect.
Feeling Anna’s mother’s unfriendly gaze, Mike stared at her without any trace. His sharp gaze made Anna’s mother look aside.
Scarlett couldn’t do anything about it. She suddenly felt that Mike seemed to be a little domineering.
“What’s wrong?”
“Nothing.” Mike held her hand and Scarlett turned around. She smiled softly.
It was best not to touch his bottom line. Otherwise, the Abraham Group would have another excuse to buy a business…
