"Don't doubt yourself, Silvia. You are much more important to Jayden than you think." As a mother, Karen knew exactly what Jayden was thinking.
"Mom, Silvia's mother is here. You should come over." Silvia wanted to ask Karen about Jayden, but she did not expect Jayden would appear out of a sudden. What an annoying guy, Silvia thought.
When Karen heard that Mrs. Turner had arrived, she immediately put everything down and went out to receive her. "Jayden, why didn't you tell me earlier? I'm so unprepared now."
Karen wanted to leave a good impression on Mrs. Turner. She did not want Mrs. Turner to think that she was an arrogant elder nor did she want Mrs. Turner to worry about handing her daughter over to Jayden.
Jayden said, "Mom, Mrs. Turner is a reasonable person."
Karen said, "If that is the case, then we should treat her even better. We mustn't make her feel that we have neglected her and we must let her know that we treat Silvia as one of us too."
Things were completely different to the time when Karen Joy got married to Lionel. At that time, the only thing that Karen had to take into account was Lionel's personality and his love for Karen Joy. As long as Lionel loved Karen Joy, Karen would not have anything else to ask for.
However, it was different this time. Not only did Jayden have to take care of Silvia, he had to take care of Silvia's family too. It was only then Mrs. Turner would feel at ease to let Silvia be with him.
In fact, it was Grandpa Kyle's idea to invite Mrs. Turner to the house. After he had proposed it, both Kevin and Karen agreed to it, so Jayden personally went over to Mrs. Turner's house to bring her to West Side.
Now that Mrs. Turner was here, the topic of their conversation eventually moved on to Jayden and Silvia's wedding.
Although Jayden and Silvia had already gotten their marriage certificate, they had not held a wedding banquet yet. That was to say, they had not announced Silvia as Jayden's wife to the public.
To the Kyle family, a wedding, no matter how simple or extravagant, signified a declaration of Silvia's identity. It was something indispensable.
Grandpa Kyle was the oldest member in the family, so he represented the family to talk to Mrs. Turner, which implicitly showed how much the Kyle family valued Silvia. "Mrs. Turner, we are planning to hold a wedding for Jayden and Silvia after the New Year's. Please feel free to let us know whatever requests and opinions you have on your side." "I don't have any special requests in regard to the wedding. I just hope that Silvia will not bring any trouble to the family after marrying Jayden. My only wish is for them to live a happy life together." To Mrs. Turner, a wedding was not essential. All she wanted was that Silvia could live a good life in future.
After talking to them for quite a while, Mrs. Turner noticed that the Kyles were very well-mannered. Although they were the richest family in the world, they were very friendly and humble. She was really happy that her daughter had married into such a family.
Grandpa Kyle was also very satisfied with Mrs. Turner's answer. He politely said, "Mrs. Turner, Silvia is a sensible and considerate young woman. Jayden is really blessed to be able to marry her."
Mrs. Turner knew that Grandpa Kyle was just being polite. However, since he had said so, it would mean that the Kyles had no objection towards Silvia joining the family.
Jayden treated Silvia very well and the elders of the Kyle family were all happy to accept Silvia as one of them. Mrs. Turner no longer had anything to worry about, so she politely said to Grandpa Kyle, "Jayden is an outstanding man. It's really a blessing for Silvia to marry him."
Grandpa Kyle laughed and said, "Since that's the case, let's listen to the kids' opinion. We'll just hold the wedding according to their wishes."
Mrs. Turner nodded in agreement. "Yes, it's their wedding, we should just let them decide. What we want is for them to be happy, right?"
Seeing that the elders were almost done talking, Jayden spoke, "Grandpa, Silvia and I know exactly what we are going to do for the wedding."
Grandpa Kyle asked, "What do you have in mind? Tell me about it."
