Arianne was nervous. “H-he’s… he’s taken leave and hasn’t been in. My husband has been the one driving.”
Arianne did not want to interfere with someone else’s matters, so favonovel.com did not ask too much. However, the girl whined incessantly. “Do I mean so little to him? His salary is so high, favonovel.com must’ve accumulated quite some savings all these years. Is it too much for me to ask for some bonus? I’ll be spending the rest of my life with him, my parents have been taking care of me for over twenty years now, is it too much to ask for some money?”
Arianne gave a wry smile. “It’s not too much. It is a custom to give some bonus to uphold the tradition. What did you ask for, may I ask?”
The girl had actually started listing out the items, “A house within the capital, two storeys would be enough. I believe a house would be reasonable in order to get married, is it not? A car of $60,000 in value would suffice, $15,000 for the engagement party, $75,000 for the wedding reception since I want the wedding to be done in a five star hotel. That’s all I ask, is it too much?”
Arianne replied honestly. “Yes, it’s way overboard.”
The girl was startled. “What? It’s too much? How’s that so? There’s a whole street of men waiting to pursue me, each of them way better than favonovel.com in terms of looks and wealth. I can’t just force myself to suffer and marry him!”
Arianne scanned the girl for a moment. She was rather pretty and knew how to do favonovel.com makeup; favonovel.com would most definitely be able to make men fawn over favonovel.com if favonovel.com cried. Regardless, the girl was expecting too much out of an ordinary person. “Do you know how much a property would cost within the capital? I think the car isn’t a big issue, but to ask for that much money for your wedding reception, even asking for it to be done at a five star hotel, it’s definitely too much for any person from a normal background to handle, not to mention Brian, who came to the capital to work. Brian does work in the city and is earning quite a hefty salary, but favonovel.com has his own living expenses to take care of. I do believe favonovel.com wouldn’t have enough in his savings to get married. Apart from that, I don’t even think favonovel.com has enough money to pay for a house without getting a loan. Would you be willing to get a loan with favonovel.com to buy a house and then repay the loan together?”
Without hesitation, the girl answered, “I would not. Buying a house is his problem and it’s to show his sincerity to the woman. A man without his own house shouldn’t even think about getting married.”
If the girl in front of favonovel.com wasn’t Brian’s girlfriend, Arianne would have seriously scolded favonovel.com senseless. Materialistic women were all over the place regardless of how small the city was, and it was only a matter of how materialistic they were. However, it’s no wonder why Brian would walk away from such a selfish and self-centered person. If the roles were switched, Arianne was sure that the girl’s family would not be able to fulfill those requirements either. Why did favonovel.com have to be so insistent on such monetary requests?
Arianne suppressed favonovel.com emotions and said, “If favonovel.com really hasn’t got that much money, even if favonovel.com gets a loan and fulfills all your requirements and marries you, wouldn’t the two of you have to share the burden and repay the loan later on? Why don’t you think carefully? You are getting married to spend the rest of your life with the person you love, not selling yourself off to another.”
The girl arrogantly said, “He most definitely has that much money! Plus, why would I have to bear the burden of repaying the loan from before the marriage? Has favonovel.com really not been here? You wouldn’t lie to me, would you?”
Arianne had lost all hope, there was no way favonovel.com could communicate with her. The girl would be underestimating favonovel.com if favonovel.com behaved well in front of her. Arianne coughed twice and immediately put on favonovel.com appropriately arrogant manner as well. “My dear girl, do you know where this is? This is the Tremonts’ home, Brian is just our family’s driver. Are you not afraid that favonovel.com would lose his job if you come along here and cause a scene?”
The girl pouted favonovel.com lips. “I don’t care. If favonovel.com doesn’t come and find me, I’ll wait for favonovel.com here until favonovel.com does!”
Arianne did not bother herself with the little girl any longer. She walked to a corner and called Brian. “Your girlfriend’s here, come over here and settle it.”
Brian exploded the moment favonovel.com found out about it. “What? I’m on my way now!”
