We’ve only been together for about three months since we started dating. So, it sure is a sudden and quick
marriage for us, Lola thought.
Then, Fiona asked, “Did they mention the value of the bridal price?”
Lola replied, “No.”
Afraid that her daughter might be displeased with this question, Fiona hurriedly explained, “I don’t mean to be rude.
I just want to find out about it beforehand. Your dad had bragged to the neighbors that we’d receive an expensive
bridal price. So, when Logan comes over to pass us the bridal price, our neighbors will surely come here to ask
about it. If we get to know the value of it in advance, we’ll be better prepared…”
Lola understood that her mother was trying to say that they would be better prepared to face the neighbors if they
knew the exact figure in advance. Not knowing the value of it either, Lola replied, “I don’t know. They never talked
about it.”

discuss with your dad how to stop our neighbors from coming over.”
Since there was nothing else to say, Lola hung up the call.
When she returned home in the evening, she never talked to Logan about the bridal price, and he seemed to have
forgotten about it as well.
On the day of the ceremony, Lorraine arrived at Logan’s home in her own car, which was crammed with gifts.
Seeing this, Lola said, “You don’t have to pass more gifts to my parents. There’s one room in their home that’s
packed with gifts. They won’t be able to use them all.”
Without getting out of the vehicle, Lorraine replied, “It’s fine.
I don’t think I should visit your parents empty-handed. There aren’t a lot of gifts here anyway.” There aren’t a lot of
gifts here? Her car is filled with them! Lola thought. Following that, Logan and Lola entered their own car as they
headed for Lola’s hometown. Langdon and Fiona were already waiting for them in the living room with desserts and
fruits on the table. When they were about to reach Lola’s home, Lola could see that many neighbors were waiting
outside her home. Do these people have nothing better to do? Lorraine’s lips curled up when she saw this. After
they entered the house, Fiona and Langdon told them to have a seat. Normally, parents from both families had to
be present when the ceremony took place. However, since Old Mr. Jefferson had been under the weather, Lorraine
had to do this on his behalf. Already seated, Fiona and Langdon were fine with this arrangement. While Logan and
Lorraine were seated together, Lola took a seat beside her parents. They hadn’t unloaded the gifts from the car
yet. Just then, Lorraine placed a packet on the table and pushed it toward them. Although the packet was bulging, it
certainly didn’t contain a lot of cash. With a calm expression, Fiona took over the packet and poured some tea for
Logan and Lorraine. Logan’s expression did not change when he saw it. After taking a look at the packet, Lola
retracted her gaze. The atmosphere didn’t seem to be affected by the gesture. Then, Lorraine went on to talk
about the wedding ceremony with Lola’s parents.

Fiona and Langdon were fine with the Jeffersons’ arrangement. As long as their daughter was happy, they didn’t
have to get involved in the preparation. After that, Logan mentioned to them that he had prepared a house for
them, which was near where Lola and he would live. Elated, Langdon said, “Of course we’d love to stay near your
home. Lola was swamped with work when she was a policewoman. Not long after she resigned from the job, she
got married to you. Honestly, it’s disheartening for us to think that she might leave us. Fortunately, you’re willing to
let us live near where you are. However, will we be a burden to you?” “Of course you’re not a burden to us. We’re
family now,” Lorraine replied. Hearing that, Fiona laughed in a joyful manner. When they were done with the
discussion, Lorraine rose from the couch and told Logan to help her unload the gifts from her car. Lola had wanted
to help them out, but Lorraine patted her on the shoulder and said, “Stay here to talk to your parents. We’ll be
leaving soon, so you won’t have much time to stay with them.” Lola nodded and returned to the living room. At that
moment, Fiona had opened the packet and saw a pile of cash. Surprisingly, there was also a bank card with the
passcode written on it. Astonished by the sight of it, Fiona and Langdon then realized that they had underestimated
the value of the bridal price.
