"Look at you, child. What are you talking about? Marriage is a big event in life. How can it be something unnecessary? I'll say that you haven't found the person you like, but if you dare to not get married for the rest of your life, I will be the first to kill you."
Vera was speechless.
"Forget about it," she thought. "I'd better not say anything more about my thoughts."
And who said that she didn't want to get married? She wanted to get married; she wanted to get married to the person she loved, and this person had to love her as well. Only such a marriage could be a happy one.
However, the person she liked did not like her back.
She thought that she probably would not fall in love with any man except Quill in this life, so she felt that she would never get married for the rest of her life.
"You still have a long life to live. How old are you now? Don't keep thinking about these things. When you reach a certain age, you will find that there is nothing you can't go through. Life is
always full of ups and downs."
Mabie was an experienced woman after all. She knew a lot of things better than her. Furthermore, Vera was her daughter. How could she not see the change in Vera after she came back? It was just that as her mother, it was not easy for her to know everything from her.
"I see, Mom. I'm going to see if Beanie has woken up."
After that, Vera went to wake Beanie up. He had been following her these days. Knowing that he was staying with Vera, David kept insisting that he wanted to be discharged from the hospital.
She naturally knew why her father wanted to be discharged from the hospital, but he had not completely recovered from his injuries yet, so she and Mabie did not allow him to do so no matter the reason.
For this reason, David even became unhappy for a long time. Everyday, Vera would send meals to him, and he would glare at her, and then ask when he could be discharged from the hospital.
Every time she thought about this, she found it funny because she didn't expect her father to be so childish.
Because the restaurant was going to open for business, Mabie specially chose a good day.
However, after considering for a long time, she found that the good days were only available the following month.
That was to say, if they wanted to choose the best date for the opening, they would have to wait until next month.
However, Vera couldn't wait. She wanted to get busy as soon as possible so that she could forget all the things in her mind.
"What if we don't look at the date anymore. Dad will be discharged from the hospital in a week. The day he leaves the hospital will be a good day for our opening."
Mabie thought about it carefully and said, "Then I'll go pick up your dad. I'll go straight to the restaurant after picking him up from the hospital."
Vera nodded and agreed, "Alright."
A week later.
Vera's restaurant was ready. Mabie bought some fireworks for her opening ceremony, but Vera felt that they were too dangerous, so she refused them and only got some balloons and flowers.
As the contract had been signed, Vera was not stingy. She directly paid for two assistants. Since the restaurant was newly opened, she also had discounts for her new customers.
For example, after taking photos and sharing them on Facebook, the customers would need not pay for their bills if they had more than a certain number of likes, but this offer was only limited to the first 500 customers. After they had been fully redeemed, the customers would need to pay.
There were also some small activities such as giving out free gifts upon spending a minimum amount in the shop. In any case, Vera had spent several nights preparing these things. Although that day was the opening day and she was in good spirits, she had a pair of extremely dark circles around her eyes.
Moreover, over these past few days, she had lost a lot of weight.
Vera did not have an oval face, but more of a round one. However, after losing weight, she lost some of the roundness on both sides of her cheeks. This made her facial features appear sharper, and her eyes looked deeper. Although she looked a little gaunt, she was much prettier than before.
