Assistant Fiancé Breaks Heirloom, I Cancel EngagementChapter 1
My mother made great contributions to the National Aeronautics Institute and was awarded the Artemis Lunar Commemorative.
After she passed away, I, who was also an engineer at the space agency, kept the news a secret and escorted her belongings back to Newport Harbor City alone. I also discussed the wedding date with my Legacy Engagement partner Victoria Kingsley.
As a result, as soon as she got off the plane, she was knocked to the ground by her male assistant.
When I saw the Artemis Lunar Commemorative in the specially made NASA-grade shockproof transport box smashed into pieces, I gasped, but the male assistant bit me back.
"Are you blind? You knocked my watch off!"
I was stunned and tried to reason with him.
"Please make it clear that you were the one who rushed in recklessly and damaged my mother's belongings. Why are you the first to complain?"
The male assistant seemed to have heard a shocking joke.
"A dead person's things are worthless, so just break them!"
"My watch is a limited edition, worth millions! Can you afford to offend the future male owner of the Kingsley Family?"
I was stunned, then I took out my cell phone and called my future mother-in-law.
"How come I didn't know that the Kingsley Family has two sons-in-law?"
……
I had not intended to take the Legacy Engagement I subscribed to more than 20 years ago seriously.
What's more, my mother just passed away.
It was my father who kept nagging me, saying that the Kingsley Family was nostalgic and Victoria was successful in her career, and asked me to set the wedding date as soon as possible.
But we haven't seen each other for more than ten years. This time we came back not so much to discuss the wedding date as to give each other a decent break.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I called Victoria's mother, she got angry.
"Who are you? What do the sons-in-law of our Kingsley Family have to do with you?"
Before I could reveal my identity, the call was hung up.
It was then that I remembered that I had just changed my phone number before returning to China and had not had time to notify anyone.
Seeing that I was turned away, the male assistant gloated over my misfortune.
"You're so tough, I thought you had someone to back you up! That's it? Just pay the money!"
