Daddy, Chasing Mommy Back is On Us! novel Chapter 558

Reuben Murray grew up with his sister, and he was the one who doted on her the most. Despite the fact that he was already well past his fifties, he couldn’t help but shed tears of sorrow upon recalling memories of his sister.

“Hey, it’s all in the past now. I’ve finally managed to stop it, so don’t make me start crying again,” Lindsay quickly chided. During the past few days, she had been immersed in the happiness of having a granddaughter, so she didn’t want to cry anymore.

Reuben was a man after all, so he turned around to wipe away his tears quietly. “Alright. It’s all in the past now. I’ll stop crying. Linda, your aunt and I prepared for you a present when we got news that you’re coming home. We hope you will like the present.”

Then, he signaled Jocelyn with a look, which prompted her to go into their room with a smile on her face. After retrieving a pretty box with a folk design, she handed it to Linda. “Open the box and check it out.”

When Linda opened the box, she found out that it contained a set of jewelry. Glimmering under the light, the ornate jewelry was obviously worth a lot. Upon seeing that, Linda reacted as if she was given a bar of hot steel, which she quickly tried to pass back to Jocelyn. “Uncle Reuben, Aunt Jocelyn, I can’t take this present. It’s too expensive.”

“Just take it if people are giving it to you! The price doesn’t matter! We’re family after all,” Lindsay quickly said.

“Yeah, Linda. This is nothing. We had planned to give you these to be added to your dowry, but... Oh, let’s leave those behind us. Now that we have given it to you as a present, you should wear this when you get married in a glorious wedding.”

However, Lindsay pouted before retorting, “That won’t do! She can wear this during other more casual occasions. I will order better ones for her when she gets married!” Despite the fact that she was eighty years old, she looked all childish when she pouted.

“Okay, it’s up to you.”

Enamored of the set of jewelry, Linda was still holding onto them when she returned to her room. Lindsay declared that she will present me with better jewelry when I get married despite the fact that these look expensive enough! The Murrays sure are filthy rich!

Immediately, she did a quick search online to find out more about the Murrays’ assets, only to end up finding nothing. She couldn’t even find Jerry’s name on the list of the world’s richest people. That’s impossible! Judging from the architecture of Vince Manor, it should be worth hundreds of millions! It’s impossible that Jerry isn’t on the list of rich people!

However, she just couldn’t find Jerry’s name on it even after spending a long time looking through the list. Eventually, the conclusion she came to was that Jerry was so rich that he bribed the people who made the list in order to wipe his name off of it.

Whenever the list was renewed annually, a lot of rich people would contact the producers to have their names removed from the list. Selena had been listed among the richest women before this, so she had told Linda about it. With that, Linda thought, It’s perfect that I have such a rich grandfather! When will Selena be sentenced to death? Why is there no news about it yet?

During dinnertime, the Murrays sat in the dining room, livening up the space. After that, they gathered in the living room for a pleasant chat. They were so engrossed in their conversation that nobody was watching the TV even though it was turned on. In spite of the lively atmosphere, Jason seemed a little distracted, as he was fiddling with his phone while sitting on the sofa.

All of a sudden, Jocelyn brought up the topic he dreaded. “Jason, I met Lina recently, who told me about your marriage with Jane. When do you plan on holding it?”

The mention of Jane’s name was enough to give Jason a headache, but he couldn’t bring himself to tell Jocelyn he didn’t want to marry Jane, as the family marriage was already decided long ago. “I’ve been busy as of late. Besides, Jane and I aren’t well-acquainted with each other, so I suppose I should postpone it.”

“That’s true. The two of you aren’t that close, so you’ll probably need time to build up a relationship with her.” Jocelyn didn’t want to force things on her son, so she let it slide for the time being.
