Chapter 783: Break off Relations with Her Mother
"Me?" Being scared by the man's frightening aura, she feels nervous, "Who are you?" Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
Just as Bridget is still thinking about how to deal with him or ask what he has come for, Macon says baldly, "Is your daughter Jasmine?"
Hearing him mentioning Jasmine, Bridget becomes alert, "How do you know about my daughter...?"
"I come here today to talk about her. Open the door first."
"..." Bridget glances behind her. Cyrus has just fallen asleep. If someone comes in now, he will be awakened. Moreover, he cannot be scared in his present situation.
Thinking of this, Bridget opens the door and walks out, instead of letting Macon in. "What's the matter? Let's go downstairs to the garden and talk. My husband hasn't recovered yet. It's not convenient for him to see the guests."
Macon nods. He is surprised that Bridget can still remain polite to him under such circumstances.
They walk to the garden of the community. The environment is not good and no one is playing in it.
Bridget comes straight to the point and asks, "What happened to my daughter?"
"You've seen Pehry before, haven't you?" seeing her being so blunt, Macon also feels relieved. So, he doesn't have to remind her again and again.
Bridget nods and says truthfully, "Yes."
"Then I'll speak very frankly. Pehry is the only son of his family. His family will arrange his marriage. Your daughter has been with him. All the members of his family do not agree. We have talked with Jasmine. But to no avail. I come here today because I want you to persuade her."
Bridget's hands, which drop to her side, slowly clench. She is shocked as the man speaks. She has told Jasmine before. But she doesn't expect things to turn out this way.
Now the other party has come to her, which is an insult to them anyway.
Although Bridget is anxious, she does not lose her composure. "I originally did not agree with them being together. But they have their own thoughts. I will persuade my daughter. But you also need to persuade Mr. Pehry."
It is definitely not the fault of one of them to fall in love. Although Jasmine shouldn't be with someone like Pehry, if Pehry doesn't agree, it is impossible for them to be lovers.
"Besides, Jasmine has always been a nice girl. I'm also worried that a man with complicated experience like Mr. Pehry will have a bad impact on her." Bridget has never been sharp-tongued. When she says this, she is already extremely angry.
As Jasmine's mother, she hasn't said anything yet. But Pehry's family has sent someone here.
Macon glances at her and says, "This is the best."
"By the way, Jasmine is only twenty years old and is very young. So, she is less defensive about people and things in the society after all. I don't think Mr. Pehry, who is in his thirties, will not know what he is doing."
After saying that, regardless of what Macon is thinking, Bridget directly says and leaves, "I will tell Jasmine. Bye."
Macon looks in the direction Bridget leaves. He has always heard from Mr. Alfred that Jasmine is very bold. Now he can understand. She lives in such a family. No wonder she is so bold.
Bridget is also an upright woman.
Macon takes out his phone and calls Mr. Alfred, "Mr. Alfred, it's done...."
...
The first thing Bridget does when she returns home is to contact Jasmine. Cyrus is still asleep. She takes the phone and goes to the second bedroom.
The phone rings a few times before it is picked up soon. A familiar voice sounds, "Mom?"
"You still remember I'm your mother!" Bridget says in anger, "What did I tell you before? You turn a deaf ear to it, don't you?"
At that time, Jasmine has just finished her class and is getting annoyed by Mary. She has intended to go to the cafeteria for lunch. But Mary insists on following her. Jasmine can't get rid of her.
It happens that Bridget calls her. Jasmine walks farther away before answering the phone.
However, as soon as she answers, she is scolded harshly. Jasmine is confused, "Mom, what are you talking about?"
"Don't you know what I'm talking about?! Ever since your father was hospitalized, I had told you not to socialize with Mr. Pehry. You didn't listen to me, did you?" the more Bridget speaks, the angrier she becomes. She is enraged because she cares about Jasmine and is afraid that Jasmine will suffer.
Hearing her suddenly mention Pehry, Jasmine pauses for a moment. She feels a little guilty and lowers her voice, "Mom, I have nothing to do with him. Stop thinking nonsense. Besides, Mr. Pehry isn't as bad as you think...."
"Nothing?" Bridget sneers, "What do you know? He is so much older than you. You can't even see through him!"
"Come on. I really have nothing to do with him. He helped me out of kindness." Jasmine feels sorry for Pehry because Bridget always speculates about his intentions.
Hearing Jasmine say this, Bridget becomes even angrier. Seeing that Jasmine is so stubborn, Bridget comes straight to the point. "Today, his family has come to our house. How can you say you have nothing to do with him? Do you remember that you are a student now? Your focus is on studying hard, not dating. You also know about our family. I have always thought that you are a nice and sensible girl. Why have you become like this now?"
Jasmine doesn't listen to the rest after Bridget finishes her first sentence. Jasmine frowns and says, "Mom, what did you say? Pehry came to our house?"
"It's not Mr. Pehry, but his family." When it comes to this, Bridget still can't conceal her grievance, "His family directly say that they don't agree to you two being together. You ... even bring shame on me and your father!"
Jasmine feels nervous while hearing these words. She doesn't care about what will happen to her. She can quickly ignore it even if Mr. Alfred came to meet her and made his position clear to her before. But Bridget is different. Bridget is even more stubborn. What Pehry's family has done has embarrassed her.
Pehry's family ... is also sent by his grandfather?
Not hearing her voice, Bridget angrily shouts, "Do you hear me talking to you!?"
"Mom, I hear you." Jasmine says in a low voice, "I admit that Pehry and I are well disposed towards each other and are willing to keep in contact in a responsible manner. He is very responsible and has never looked down on me or my family. The opinions of his family are not his."
"I don't care what you think. From today onwards, you can no longer contact him. If someone comes to our house because of this again, I will break off relations with you!"
