"Angela, do you think I should agree them to be together?" He asked.
Angela was shocked. She didn't expect that Wayne would get her involved in this. And she was not stupid. She knew from his words that he had agreed in his heart. He just wanted to find someone to get down the stairs.
"Dad, although Eric is a stubborn child, I must agree to his insistence. You have seen how I got together with Richard. I don't want my children to follow the same path as me, so both Richard and I will agree them to be together. Moreover, Lily is really good to Eric." She spoke out her thoughts and for the first time she spoke for Lily.
"Ah." Wayne sighed, "As their parents, you all agree. If I insist on my decision, I'm afraid they will hate me. I will think about their things."
Jade, who was sitting quietly beside, was already pissed off. Two hands under the stone table were interlaced with each other, clenching, loosening, and looking at Angela with hatred.
But Angela pretended she didn't see that. Lily was together with Eric as the eldest daughter of the Qiao family, and now with the support of Kerr, the commercial value of the Gu family had already surpassed that of the business value of Claire brought to the Gu family. No wonder she was angry.
Since Kerr had done what he was supposed to do and had achieved his goal, he thought it was unnecessary for him to stay here any longer. So he pulled Tina to stand up. The lawyer collected the documents and stood up as well.
"Mr. Wayne, if there is nothing else, we should leave now." He said politely.
"Yes." "Send them." Said Wayne without any intention to make them stay.
"I know, Dad." Angela nodded and stood up.
Wayne stood up, "I'm tired. I won't walk you out. Jade, take me to my room."
"Okay, Dad." Hearing her name, Jade stood up immediately, walked to Wayne and helped him away.
Angela walked in front of them and showed them the way. As soon as she got out of the gazebo, she stopped and turned to look at Kerr and Tina, saying, "Actually, you don't need to do this. Two people like each other can be together, if it is related to interests, it will become a contradiction in their future life."
Hearing what she said, Kerr smiled, "No, Eric knows it. I have explained the reason to him. I think it will only be a good chance for him to be with Lily, not a conflict between them."
"Does Eric know about it?" Angela asked in surprise.
"Yes." Kerr nodded, "He heard it when I told Mr. Wayne about it. The night before yesterday, when he came to have dinner with Lily, he offered to talk about it with me."
"You..." Angela didn't know how to describe her current mood. It was such an important thing that Kerr didn't discuss with anyone in his family, but he told it to Eric. It seemed that he trusted Eric to a certain extent.
Even Tina, who was on the side, was full of surprise. It turned out that he went upstairs to tell Wayne about it that day, and then went back to do it silently.
"Well, don't think too much," He said to Angela, "We know which is more important and we understand the principle. Now, the only thing we can do is to stand on their side, agree them to be together and create benefits for them. As for how they will live in the future, and how they will proceed with it is also their business. We adults should do what we should do."
"Yes." Angela nodded.
At this time, Tina walked up, held Angela's hand and said, "I know that you are a good mother. After Lily stays with Eric, I hope that you will be less dissatisfied with her. As a mother, as a daughter-in-law. We both have experienced the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law relationship, and I don't want my daughter to experience what we have experienced."
Hearing this, Angela suddenly laughed. "I know, but I will not 100% guarantee to you that I will not scold her. If she does something wrong, I will curse her."
In fact, she was not a woman with sharp character. She had a prejudice against Lily because of the external factors. But now that she was agreed to be together with Eric, she naturally would not deliberately target at her.
"Of course." Tina nodded in agreement, "Even if you don't scold, I will."
Angela smiled and shook Tina's hand back. "It seems that you are a good mother. If Eric did something wrong, I hope you can help me to discipline him."
"He doesn't need my help. You've already taught him well. He has his own principles no matter what he does."
"It seems that you are getting along well with each other."
They talked to each other, ignoring Kerr. But Kerr didn't mind it at all. On the contrary, he was glad that they got along well with each other, which reduced the conflicts between Lily and Eric.
"Lawyers, you may go back first. I think it will take a while to leave here." He said to the lawyer, casting a glance at the two who were chatting happily.
"Okay, Mr. Kerr. I'll leave now." The lawyer said.
"Yes."
Until half an hour later, Angela and Tina finally stopped, with smiles on their faces.
