Let's Get Married

Chapter 745: The Mood of Meeting Parents

Jasmine also has this thought and obediently nods, "Alright. Don't worry. Let Dad get well first. As for the rest, it's not too late to talk about it later."

"OK!" hearing her saying this, Bridget feels relieved. Thinking of Pehry, she says, "When your father gets better later, we will treat your boss to a meal as a token of gratitude."

Jasmine's eyelids twitch as she thinks of the scene of them eating together....

"Mom, there's no need. My boss is usually very busy and doesn't have time to have a meal with us."

"Then you ask him first. Anyway, we have to thank him for this. If he doesn't have time to have a meal with us, we should at least thank him in person. He can ignore it. But we have to be grateful!" the more Bridget speaks, the more excited she becomes. In her opinion, more than 100,000 is astronomical. If they really accept it silently, she will be stuck.

Jasmine doesn't want her to get emotional. So, she nods. "Alright. Then I'll ask him later."

The first week of hospitalization passes. When it is time for Cyrus to recheck, Pehry insists on coming over personally. Jasmine cannot stop him anyway. So, she has no choice but to have a showdown with Pehry.

"You can't go. If you go there, my mother will definitely not let you go."

"??" Pehry is dumbfounded. He has been a little upset by her constant refusal. But now, he ignores it, "What do you mean?"

Jasmine has no choice but to tell the truth, "My mother said that you helped our family with such a big favor. She had intended to treat you to dinner to express our gratitude in person. I refused it with great difficulty. If you go there now, she will definitely...."

"That's perfect!" unexpectedly, Pehry does not retreat. Instead, he agrees, "How can I not be available if Ms. Bridget wants to meet me? Even if I am very busy, I still have to be available, okay?"

With that, he suddenly realizes something and squints at Jasmine sitting beside him, "Jasmine, how can you be like this? You refused it for me without asking my opinion. How do you know that I'm not going?"

Now, it is Jasmine's turn to be dumbfounded.

She doesn't understand what Pehry and Bridget can talk when they have a meal. What can they talk about?

"I refused because of you. I've been postponing it...."

"What's wrong with me? I'm glad! It would be my honor to have dinner with Ms. Bridget!" The more Pehry speaks, the more excited he becomes. In the end, he takes out his phone and asks his assistant to book a restaurant. "No time like the present. Let's go today. I'll get someone to book a restaurant with a good environment. Let's have lunch together."

"..."

Jasmine has a premonition, "You ... don't be impulsive."

"I'm not impulsive. I'm very rational." As Pehry speaks, he sends the message to his assistant, "What kind of food does Ms. Bridget like? Generally speaking, people at this age prefer Chinese food, right?"

Seeing that he really starts to arrange it, Jasmine presses down on his hand and looks at him. She pauses for a while and says seriously, "Pehry, that's my mother."

Pehry sighs silently and nods, "I know."

"Isn't it strange for you to go to meet her?"

"What's strange about it?"

"It is...." Jasmine doesn't know what to say. After thinking for a long time, she squeezes out a sentence. "You and I are in love. My family don't know. It's easy for you to let it slip."

"No." Pehry raises his eyebrows and says, "Although I am willing to make it public, if you think it is inappropriate, I can cooperate with you in lying."

What??

Jasmine is astonished. Lie?!

He uses that word to describe her?

"I, I...." Words fail Jasmine. Especially when she sees the sincerity in his eyes, she feels like a lecherous man who is in love but still irresponsible.

How can it be her fault?

"Don't be so nervous. We are just having a meal together. I won't say anything. Besides, you cannot stop Ms. Bridget from seeing me forever. I'll see her sooner or later." Pehry persuades her emotionally, "Otherwise, Ms. Bridget will always keep it in her mind. It looks like that we are all not nice. We should be sensible."

Jasmine is a little conflicted by Pehry's words. Indeed, Bridget is an honest person, who has been nervous because of money recently.

A hundred thousand is too much for an ordinary family like them. If Bridget can't meet Pehry, she will probably not be at ease for the rest of her life.

Jasmine also feels a little uncomfortable while looking at it.

However, if they really meet, it is not certain what will happen.

Seeing that Jasmine does not say anything, Pehry knows that she is hesitant. He takes advantage and adds, "Well, I'll go to the restaurant first and wait for you and Ms. Bridget. After Mr. Cyrus finishes examination, you guys can come over. Is this okay? It is up to you what to talk while having a meal. I'll echo whatever you say, okay?"

Actually, Pehry usually hates to contact elders the most. He always tries his best to evade the elders in his family. But he does not have such thoughts while facing Jasmine's mother.

Even he doesn't know why he is so eagerly attentive. But when he thinks of that he can meet her parents, he feels excited and happy, as if their relationship will take a step forward.

Pehry feels more and more that helping Cyrus cure illness is really the best choice he has ever made.

"Alright." Jasmine thinks for a long time before finally relenting, "But you have to behave yourself. My family is very conservative. I don't want them to worry too much."

"Sure." Pehry hastens to nod. At this moment, no matter what Jasmine says, he will agree without any complaint.

Then, they happily decide to have lunch this afternoon.

After arriving at the hospital, Jasmine accompanies Cyrus to finish the examination before telling Bridget about the news. After learning it, Bridget quickly changes into new clothes and brushes her hair neatly.

"How do I look?" she asks her daughter while looking in the mirror.

Seeing Bridget being so formal, Jasmine feels a little strange, as if she has been in love and is going to meet the parents. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

She can't help but feel a little nervous. "Very good, Mom. Let's go, or we'll be too late."

"OK."

Bridget goes out with her bag. They walk out of the hospital arm in arm and have intended to go there by car. But as soon as they get to the door, a black Mercedes-Benz stops there.

"Hello, is this Ms. Bridget?" the driver sticks his face out and asks respectfully as the window falls.

Bridget points at herself. She has never seen such a situation before, "Yes, it's me."

"Mr. Pehry asked me to pick you up. Please get into the car."

Hearing this, Jasmine immediately rolls her eyes inside. Pehry has promised to wait for them at the restaurant. However, he doesn't come himself but asks the driver to come to pick them up?

She glances at Bridget and can tell that Bridget is indeed ... scared.

Jasmine has no choice but to fake a smile and open the car door, "Mom, my boss is considerate. Let's get in the car and don't be late."
