After we confirmed our relationship, he was even more considerate and tender.
In a society that often promotes fear of marriage and childbirth, I felt so lucky to have found such a wonderful love.
Therefore, I couldn't fathom associating him with the word "demon."
"Hello, baby?"
I shook my head violently, struggling to clear my mind, and replied.
"Yes, I'm here. We'll be there soon. Please drive safely."
Closing the diary, I was filled with doubts as I left with my parents.
Upon meeting, Felix gave me a big hug and tenderly kissed my forehead.
He also showed great respect to my parents, serving them coffee with ease.
My parents couldn't stop smiling at this prospective son-in-law.
At the dinner table, both sets of parents exchanged pleasantries and then discussed the main topic of the day: the dowry and wedding arrangements.
Katie looked at me with a smile and said.
"Katrina is such a good girl. It's our blessing to have her. We've calculated it, and the dowry will be 48,880. The remaining money will serve as a down payment, and we'll also buy a house with both of their names on it."
"Nowadays, young people don't like to live with the elderly. I understand that. I still have some savings to help with the mortgage, so they won't feel too much pressure. What do you think, Mr. Durham and Mrs. Durham?"
My parents were filled with joy and surprise. They hadn't expected such high regard from my future in-laws.
In our area, a 30,000 dollars dowry was already considered quite high.
Felix's father passed away early, leaving them a sum of money from his business, which allowed him to complete his education and achieve what he had today.
Now that they were willing to provide a 48,880 dowry and put the house in our names, it was already the greatest show of sincerity.
Anyone would be touched from the bottom of the heart.
However, when I heard the amount "48,880 dollars," I began to tremble slightly.
It all matched the content in the diary...
My mother spoke in a gentle voice.
"It's Katrina's good fortune to have such a good mother-in-law, Katie."
My father raised a glass to Katie.
"It's not easy for you to raise Felix by yourself. As parents, we all hope for our children to live happily. We've prepared 50,000 dollars as a dowry, also as a sincere gesture."
Felix and Katie exchanged a glance and shared a knowing smile.
