Damn, I wanted to cover my eyes.
At this time, Roy held the menu. My dad cleared his throat and pretended to be mysterious. "I haven't introduced this gentleman yet. This young man next to me is the husband I have chosen for Hazel!"
I almost squirted the water in my mouth.
My mother continued, "This gentleman said that he is willing to pay a dowry of 50,000 dollars to marry Hazel! Freya, we will be nice to you. As long as you are willing to marry Reid, we will also pay a dowry of 50,000 dollars!"
Wow, so they wanted to marry me off for 50,000 dollars and used the money to get Reid a wife.
This was not over yet. Reid reminded me, "Hazel, you promised to sign over the flat, remember?"
When it came to the house, Freya got excited. "I heard you've got a large flat. When will you take me to see it?"
She waved her empty wrist and hinted crazily, "My sister-in-law bought me a bunch of gold bracelets and necklaces when she married my brother. Hazel, you are so rich. You gotta buy me diamonds!"
Hearing her demand, Reid looked satisfied and echoed, "Of course, my sister will buy it for you!"
My mother clapped her hands regretfully. "It's our fault for being inconsiderate. Hazel, there is a shopping mall downstairs. Take Freya to pick a gift later. Just consider it as a gift from our whole family to her!"
Roy stared at me with an evil leer the whole time.
Unintentionally, a few drops of saliva flowed into the gap between his double chin.
I had no appetite at all!
My stomach was churning.
I wanted to leave on the pretext of having a stomach ache.
Reid blocked my way at the hotel door and shouted into the private room, "Mom, Dad, Roy, Hazel wants to run away!"
After saying that, he rushed up and held down my hands and feet.
Roy even provocatively lifted my chin and pouted, as if he was about to kiss me.
