Chapter 461 Say Something (Part One)
Although the atmosphere was serious, everyone's face changed slightly. The corners of their mouths twitched and they tried not to laugh. After a long time, Charlie seemed to realize something. He smiled awkwardly and said, "Didn't I say that? He's over twenty years older than her. "
"If you take over the Xu group, it will be a disaster sooner or later." Staring at Charlie, Brody couldn't help saying something sarcastic. Charlie moved his body and said with a dark face, "Mom, we are talking about Elsa's marriage. Be serious."
Mrs. Xu glared at Charlie and then loosened her grip on his ear. She turned her head and stared at Bob angrily. She said impolitely, "I only have one daughter. Anyway, I don't agree with you. Let's not talk about anything else. Age is a problem."
With a calm look on his face, Bob didn't say anything. Mr. Xu, who was standing next to him, heaved a long sigh, seriously looked at him and said, "You two are not right for each other at all. I don't care what happened before, but it's all over now!"
His words were very light, but they made people feel an irresistible dignity. Turning his head to look at Elsa, Brody said, "Elsa, life is not a game. You are not a child now."
When she heard Brody's words, a wave appeared on her dull face. She looked at him sadly and said weakly, "Now you finally know that I'm not a child anymore. I thought you always treated me as a child. "
With a complicated look on his face, Brody sighed and said coldly, "For your future, I won't support you to marry such a person. Elsa turned her head and didn't say anything. Bob's face changed. He made up his mind and stared at her father. He said firmly, "I know what you fear most now is not the age difference between us, but our identity. Yes, I used to kill a lot of people, but I can face myself. I am a murderer. How noble are you. Have you ever done anything illegal or colluded with government or business? Who dares to say that he is innocent? " At the same time, the look on Bob's face suddenly
became a little cold, and at the moment when everyone was stunned. "Of course, except for Elsa, she is just a child. She knows nothing."
Seeing this, Charlie added, "You really treat her as a child."
Then, there was another silence. Bob continued coldly, "About me, I can face myself. I've paid off all the charges against the law. Now, all I know is that I want to marry her and make her happy. "
"Stop it. I won't agree." Mrs. Xu interrupted her angrily.
There was another dead silence, which was unusual. Elsa, who was standing beside Bob, had always been like an outsider. Looking at their every move and behavior, she always gave people a sense of death on her face, and it was difficult to associate the word "Hope" with her. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
Looking at Mrs. Xu, and then at Mr. Xu, then at Brody and the indifferent Charlie, a sense of helplessness attacked his heart. Finally, Bob lowered his head, as if he was pinning his last hope on Elsa. Elsa raised her head feebly and took a look at him indifferently. The corners of her mouth twitched imperceptibly, and then she looked at Mr. Xu and said indifferently, "Dad, don't quarrel with each other. I want to marry him."
Although Elsa said in an indifferent tone, everyone was shocked except for Charlie. They looked at her worriedly, as if they were afraid that she would think of something.
After a long time, Brody looked at Elsa seriously and said, "Do you think you will be happy with him? Or can he make you happy? Have you forgotten all the things happened in the past? "
Although others didn't understand what he meant, they knew each other well. When he said these words in a suggestive tone, Elsa panicked for no reason. Because... If he had to tell Elsa what had happened in the past, he would really be unforgivable, especially at this moment. In fact, the reason why he came here today was to make trouble, and he didn't want him to get what he wanted.
Elsa looked at Brody coldly and sneered, "Happiness? Of course I will be happy. He will be very good to me, very good, and will never hurt me. Apart from you, he will also be obedient to me. No matter what I want, he will give me, just as you did to me when I was a child. I want shells, and you will pick them up for me regardless of anything. If I want to go to the seaside, you can take me to the seaside. If I want to swim, you can teach me how to swim... "
Brody's expression became more complicated. He looked at Elsa apologetically and said, "Elsa, don't do that. You know what I mean. Do you really think you will be happy to marry such a person?"
Elsa suddenly looked at Brody and said firmly, "Yes. I will be happy! "
"You don't need to worry about that. I'll give her everything she wants. She must be very happy," said Bob, taking her hand.
"Well... In fact, I support them... "
With a stern look on his face, Elsa's father said, "You should know that you are not a child now. You have to be responsible for what you have said and done one day."
"Dad, please don't say that. I know what I'm doing. Stop arguing. I'm about to get married." Elsa said to her father seriously.
Mrs. Xu looked at Elsa with a distressed face and said hesitantly, "Elsa, if you know what you are doing, you shouldn't have said that now. If you know what you are doing, you should know how absurd your marriage is."
Mrs. Xu, who was about to say something harshly, softened her tone when she saw Elsa's pale face. She tried her best to make her tone sound sincere instead of blaming. With a smile on her pale face,
Elsa said, "Mom, it's okay. I know what I'm doing. I like him, and I'm going to marry him. I'm sorry, but you can rest assured. Well, I will take good care of myself. "
Elsa's words made everyone flabbergasted. At this time, the same thought almost flashed through their minds, namely, this kind of obedient words should not be said from Elsa's mouth. It could be said that she was rebellious, arrogant, and had never been so obedient before. Now she suddenly became gentle and soft, which made everyone a little surprised. They were not used to it, and even doubted her true thoughts at the moment.
For a long time, no one spoke, and the atmosphere was silent.
Finally, after a long time, Elsa continued, "I'm sorry. Marriage is my lifetime business. I have the right to make decisions by myself. I want to marry him."
Looking down at her pale face, Bob breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that what she said had worked!
All of a sudden, Charlie stood up from the sofa, yawned and said, "Since you have said so, it's settled, ah... Don't worry too much. She is an adult and has her own thoughts. "
All of them looked at Charlie almost at the same time. As if nothing had happened, he said in a gloating tone, "Well... In fact, Elsa didn't have to hurt others after she got married. What a happy thing! At least, after she gets married, I don't have to look after her every day. "
Charlie's words made other people's faces darken again. Looking around, Elsa just felt bored. At last, she frowned and said indifferently, "Thank you. If you are willing to arrange the marriage, it doesn't matter. Anyway, it's just a wedding." *
