Connie was scared by the strength of Adam. she was afraid that it would be bad if he continued saying like this. So she pulled his clothes and signaled him not to say anything more. Connie tried to ease the situation and said, "Victor, you should understand uncle Adam's mood. After all, it doesn't matter whose daughter meets this situation, it will certainly stir up trouble in their parents' heart, let alone An family. Since you have had a miscarriage with Teresa, it would be very unkind for you to say something like that now... "
After Connie finished, she glanced at Teresa. Wearing the light blue dress she wore last night, Teresa sat quietly on the sofa like a white porcelain doll, making people feel sorry for her.
Grace understood Adam and Connie's feeling. Grace felt ashamed of themselves, especially after hearing what they had said. Grace had watched Teresa grow up, so she knew her well enough that she was better than an outsider. Grace strongly agreed on the marriage of Teresa to Xiao family.
"Teresa, I have watched you grow up. I know how you feel about Victor. You can rest assured that Xiao family will give you a position, and we will absolutely treat you well!"
Teresa nodded gratefully, and deliberately said, "It doesn't matter if Victor is unwilling to marry me. I don't want to give him too much pressure..."
After hearing what Teresa said, Adam felt more sorry for her daughter. He interrupted her in a low voice, "Teresa!" He didn't want her to continue.
Seeing that there was nothing she could do with Victor, Connie had to turn to Christopher for help. "Uncle, you see, our dear Teresa is still in love with Victor. If both of us have no objections, should we discuss their marriage as soon as possible? It's understandable that Victor is young and aggressive. But he will understand us in the future."
The moment Connie finished talking, everyone turned their eyes to Christopher. Christopher was the most trustworthy person in his family. Every single word he said carried weight. After he said something, nobody would refute him.
Christopher heard what they had just said and understood what had happened. He picked up the teacup, sipped at the tea that had just been brewed, and said slowly, "I have understood what happened. In fact, what you said makes sense."
Hearing Christopher's words, Connie exchanged a knowing look with Teresa. Connie had a feeling that their plan would work.
After a pause, Christopher changed the subject. "But the times are different. Young people have grown up. They have their own thoughts. What they think, you don't necessarily feel right. And what you think, they don't necessarily feel right. Especially when it comes to love, they know it themselves. It is the two of them who really got along."
"Therefore, young people should make their o
king at the osmanthus cake on his plate, Victor couldn't help but frown. He asked the servant to bring him a clean plate and said, "I don't like eating this in the morning." Then Victor took a toast and put on some jam.
Although Victor said so, it occurred to Teresa that she had an excuse to stay in his house for a night once. The servant had prepared a real Chinese breakfast and he was enjoying it with Sophia.
Thinking of this, Teresa got angry. But she concealed her expression very well, still with a sweet smile on her face, and said, "It turned out that you had to eat western food in the morning. I remember that, from now on, I will never make mistakes again!"
In fact, the harmonious picture of Victor having Chinese breakfast with Sophia kept flashing across her mind. Right now, she hated Sophia very much and she was eager to deal with Sophia after she got married to Victor. Teresa wanted to know how could Sophia show off in front of her if Sophia couldn't be with Victor anymore!
Although Christopher was eating noodles on the surface, he had witnessed the movements of Victor and Teresa. Looking at the two's state of being together, Christopher also understood the last night's meaning of Victor's words to him.
Realizing that she couldn't help him to pick up the food just now, Teresa stood up and poured a cup of hot milk for Victor. She said, "Victor, don't you have the habit of drinking milk in the morning?"
In front of the elders at home, it was not proper for Victor to refuse Teresa again and again. So he had to take the milk and put it in front of himself.
Knowing that Teresa was deeply concerned about Victor but she always got no response and Teresa would be embarrassed, so Grace praised, "Look at Teresa. You are so considerate even before you get married into our family. What would you be in the future after you marry into our family?"
