Chapter 1046
Σ
Mackenzie was assessing Ruby with her icy gaze; she suspected that Ruby was responsible for this situation.
However, finding a suitable woman for Ryder, given his intelligence and capability, was truly challenging. You can’t put a crown on a clown and expect a king, after all.
On the other hand, Alessandra was more open-minded. Although she had her sights set on Tia, now that Ryder was with Ruby, she was willing to lower her standards as long as she could find a woman for him and create a complete family.
With a polite smile, she said, “Come on, Ryder, Ruby, take a seat with Tommy, and let’s enjoy the meal together.”
Ruby was in high spirits.
As long as Ryder confirmed his desire to marry her and Alessandra approved of her, she would hold nothing back.
After taking a seat, she immediately linked her arm with Ryder’s and said, “Ryder, since you promised to marry me, let’s discuss the wedding matters today!”
“Ah? Oh… alright!”
Ryder couldn’t refuse, considering he had agreed to it himself.
Alessandra, upon hearing this, also became interested. “Since you two are planning to get married, today is indeed a good opportunity for a serious discussion.”
Roselynn suppressed her anger and remained silent, waiting to see what Ruby was up to!
Emmanuel and Mackenzie also stayed silent.
Since it was Ryder’s own choice, they, as outsiders, couldn’t intervene.
Upon hearing Alessandra’s words, Ruby got straight to the point. “Well… for the dowry, let’s stick to the previous agreement of 70 thousand!”
“What? 70 thousand? Are you worth that much, woman?”
Roselynn was the first to get agitated and slammed the table.
Ruby looked hurt, tightly holding onto Ryder’s arm, and said, “My parents agreed on at least 150 thousand. I genuinely want to marry you, and I’ve already reduced the dowry by half. You won’t go back on your word, will you?”
Ryder looked helpless. Why? Why couldn’t I control myself last night? Why did I take advantage of her? He truly didn’t know what to do now!
“Hehe, 70 thousand is not a problem. Ryder is my son, so as his mother, I will naturally find a way for him!”
Alessandra, surprisingly, accepted the condition. Now that the Lowe family’s financial situation had improved, she wouldn’t mind forking out 70 thousand as dowry.
Seeing Alessandra agree, Emmanuel had no choice. After all, he was her son.
Ruby, at this point, was elated and took the opportunity to say, “After we get married, we should have a house, right? I came across a house in Cloud Bay that I really like. Why don’t we buy it? It’s not too expensive, just over 300 thousand, and we only need to pay 120 thousand as a down payment!”
