Still Wanna Escape After Stealing My Heart? novel Chapter 2116

Phil looked at his daughter, Mira. He did not say anything, but his gaze had already told her everything. 'You've seen it, right? The man from a lowly background is right in front of you. The typical man from a lowly background is a man who had made something of himself, so he had to take care of his entire family, which includes his parents, grandparents, and also sisters. Also, his family is going to be occupying a very important position in his life. You, as his wife, are simply just an outsider. Do you still want to marry him?'

After he had asked his daughter that with his gaze, Phil turned his head around and looked at Lucius and his wife, as well as the three daughters of the Payne family in an incomparably contemptuous manner.

The three girls, however, did not sense Phil's contemptuous gaze at all. It was particularly so for the third daughter. She was the one who had the gift of the gab among the three sisters.

The third sister, Abigail, was wearing a small leather jacket. The shiny fur collar seemed extraordinarily expensive. As for the bottom, she was wearing a pair o f solid-colored jeans made from high quality pure cotton. She was also wearing a pair of knee-high boots worth more than two thousand dollars. The way she dressed truly was expensive.

Abigail stood at the door looking expensive and confident. "Mister Turner, Miss Turner, do you think people from our small county are all country bumpkins? If our small county is filled with country bumpkins, how could my parents bring you to such a high-end private room? I'm guessing that even if it's i n the provincial capital, there aren't many hotels there that are on the same level as The Grand Julius Hotel i n our county, right? Then, let me tell you something, w e, the Payne family, are not some small family and country bumpkins who know nothing!"

Phil and Mira were speechless. Mira, in particular, suppressed the anger within her and looked at Abigail, "Then, tell me, if you're not country bumpkins, then what are you?"

"I am your sister-in-law!" Abigail suddenly reprimanded Mira.

Mira was startled.

"Do you know what sister-in-law means? There are plenty of rules in our Payne family! You're the new daughter-in-law, so you're supposed to serve tea to your elders and to us, your sisters-in-law! Do you understand that?" Abigail simply wanted to first assert her dominance over Mira.

Mira muttered haltingly a little as she truly did not know what she should say in reply for a short moment. That was because she truly admired Vireo too much and she wanted to marry this man too badly. She simply fell in love at first sight with Vireo.

When she saw Vireo again, she fell head over heels for him and was no longer able to suppress her feelings. She had also made a promise to Vireo earlier on that she would certainly treat the Payne family as her own and would certainly be gentle and meek. Surely, she could not just go back on her words after just one meal, right?

Mira forcibly suppressed her anger and then she smiled gently. "You must be Vireo's third sister. Nice t o meet you. Then, the two of you should be his eldest and second sister, right? Come in and have a seat. This table is so huge and we're a family, so we should discuss it together."

Only then did the three sisters sit proudly at the table. It was after they had properly taken their seats that Mira respectfully said, "You're right. It truly was difficult for the Payne family to raise a college graduate and he is a high achieving student who had completed the seven-year combined program. Don't worry. My family, the Turner family, certainly will not treat you poorly. We'll be a family in the future."

Mira felt that she had already taken the stance as the bigger person. Throughout the entire country, was it not the groom's family who was supposed to be giving gifts to the bride's family? It was truly a first for Mira t o hear that the groom's family was going to ask the bride's family for gifts. However, since they had asked for it, that meant that they had the reason for doing s o. Fine, she would put up with it!

At that moment, the second sister, who had yet to have the chance to speak, finally spoke. "Mister Turner and Miss Turner."

In comparison to the others, the second sister, Ashnah, was gentler when she spoke, but she also was not going to back down. "This is the case. Our family indeed had many challenges in order to let my brother go to college. The concept of a family is very important to people like us in the small county. When you marry a woman, you marry her whole family. Likewise, when you marry my brother, you also marry his entire family. Our brother has three sisters, his parents, and his grandparents. He doesn't have many loved ones, but our family is inseparable. How about this, according to the Turner family's ability, and also because my brother indeed is a talented man who is one in a million, the gifts that the Turner family should be giving us should be two hundred thousand dollars in cash, a high-end car, and also a house under my brother's name. Other than that, your family should buy three stores at strategic locations in our small county for my parents. After all, our brother is going to follow you back to the provincial capital and b e a doctor at your family's hospital. In the future, my brother is going to take care of your family's business with all his heart and soul."
