Drunk and Daring I Kissed a Tycoon novel Chapter 340

In a way, it was a sigh of relief.

"Vera, as long as you understand that it's impossible with Mr. Reid, that's all I need to hear. I just don't want you to get stubborn again, where no one can talk sense into you."

"Mom, I won't be like that anymore."

"Look, Mr. Reid may be impressive. He buys you books and orchids, and there's no doubt he's making an effort. But your dad and I aren't naive.

"Even if he treats you well, what good is it if his family doesn't approve? If his parents look down on you, your life will be hard.

"And let's not forget, a man like him is always surrounded by many women who'd want him. Remember, a man's heart can change in the blink of an eye, and we can't afford to make the same mistake again."

"Okay." Vespera lowered her gaze and nodded. "I understand."

"You've only been divorced for a short time, so there's no rush to find someone."

"I'm not in a hurry."

Vespera smiled faintly, her eyes filled with unshed tears.

Wanda rinsed the fresh tomatoes she had just bought and handed one to her.

"Your dad and I can only give you advice, but the final decision is yours. I can buy you books, but orchids are too expensive. We'll return them once your dad takes care of them. It'll be fine."

"Okay," Vespera replied, picking up the tomato Wanda had washed.

She sat down at the table and took a bite.

This tomato was incredibly sour.

Wanda walked onto the balcony, her gaze fixed on Vernon as he lovingly tended to his flowers. The sight sparked a surge of anger deep within her.

"Enjoy them while you can," she said coldly. "Once I return them, there won't be anything left to admire."

Vespera left her parents' house, her stomach still full from the large bowl of tomatoes.

As she stepped outside, she remembered there hadn't been any parking spaces available when she came on Saturday.

So, she decided to park in the vacant space in front of the building across the street.

Just as she took a step forward, she heard someone call her name.

"Vespera!"

She paused and turned around.
