Bring Your A Game, Mr novel Chapter 883

Chapter 883 Humans Are Fortune’s Fool

Yuri fell asleep not long after getting into the car. Perhaps her pregnancy made her feel easily exhausted. When she woke up and noticed the familiar mountainous scenery, she sobered up.

She turned her head and looked at Brendan in surprise. “Why are you taking me here?! Stop the car! I want to go back!” She tried to urge him to stop.

Brendan remained composed as he maneuvered the steering wheel calmly. “We’re getting married soon. As the soon-to-be son-in-law, I should personally visit my in-laws.”

Yes, they had come to Yuri’s hometown and would reach her house soon. Yuri had not returned to her hometown for more than a decade.

It was not that she did not want to come back, but she dared not to. However, she was defeated by Brendan’s insistence. After all, she was pregnant now and could not afford to risk harming the child she was carrying.

Soon, they arrived at the entrance of Yuri’s house, and her parents were waiting at the door. As soon as the car stopped, the two elders came forward, opened the front passenger seat door, and helped Yuri get out of the vehicle.

“Yuri! It’s really you! You’re home! I miss you so much! You’re gone for so many years. Why haven’t you come home even once? How can you do this to me…” Cindy, Yuri’s mother, began to cry.

Yuri’s father, Thiago Fox, expressed his yearning with a firm attitude and red-rimmed eyes, “Yuri, why didn’t you visit? How could we ever rest easy not knowing how you were doing?!”

Yuri could not bear to see her parents’ tears. She refused to come home all these years because she was worried that she wouldn’t be able to handle her parents’ disappointment.

At this moment, she could no longer feign composure when she looked at her aging parents. She finally let go of all her reservations as she embraced them tightly and sobbed.

They wrapped their arms around each other as they walked into the house and conveyed their pain and longing for the other after at least a decade of separation.

Brendan did not disturb their family reunion. Instead, he gave them the privacy they needed as he went to the kitchen and began to cook them lunch.

This meal was the most lively one the Fox Family had had in over a decade.

The overjoyed Thiago dragged Brendan into drinking. Unfortunately, due to his joy, he went more than a little bit overboard with the wine. So, at the end of the day, they were so wasted that they fell asleep right there and then.

After Yuri and Cindy hoisted the men into the room and tucked them in, they went back to sit in the living room and began to have a heart-to-heart between mother and daughter.

Yuri ran her fingers through her mother’s hair and pursed her lips in heartache. “I gave you so much money over the years because I want you to live a comfortable life. Why don’t you hire a maid? I’ve only been gone for a few years, but look at your greying hair and wrinkles…”

She thought her parents would be able to live a comfortable life as long as she provided them with financial support. Therefore, when she saw the white hair on Cindy’s head, she realized nothing was more important than being by her parents’ side.

“It’s your money. I can’t use them. I spent some because your father was sick last year, and I saved up the rest as your dowry.” The corner of Cindy’s eyes crinkled when she smiled, but she was delighted to finally see her daughter again. “Brendan is a good man. Your dad and I are happy that you’re together.”

“No.” Yuri looked a little awkward. “We’re not in that kind of relationship.”

“What do you mean? Hey, you’re pregnant. Don’t you want to marry him?” Cindy scolded sternly, “Darling, you’ve been working for so many years. It’s time for you to settle down. It’s hard to find a good man these days!”

“Mom!” Yuri whined. “I’m your daughter. Why are you taking his side instead of mine? What if he’s not as good as you think? This is the first time you’ve met, and you are already siding with him.”

Earlier, when they were having lunch, Brendan and Thiago were like close friends as they chatted and drank wine. Their closeness made Yuri feel like an outsider when this was her family.

“Nonsense! You’re our daughter, so of course, we will always side with you!” Cindy took her hand and confided solemnly, “Brendan has been taking care of us all these years. He didn’t even mind doing the farming work. During the farming season, he would rush here from the city to help us. Also, he helped us a lot when your father was admitted to the hospital last year. He did everything for us without any complaints. If it hadn’t been for him, your dad and I would have collapsed!”

Yuri was utterly unaware of Brendan’s efforts. She didn’t expect him to take such good care of her parents.
