Flash Marriage He Made My Jaw Drop
Chapter 13
“He has something to do, so he’s leaving first.” Damien started the car, “I’ll take you back first.”
Damien sent Vivienne and her mother back to their rental apartment, which was the first time he came to the place where Vivienne lived.
The apartment was small with only one bedroom.
There was a bed in the living room, which was separated by a curtain. The apartment was small but tidy.
Obviously, Vivienne lived in the living room and left the room to her mom. The rent in Washington DC was expensive. Just such a small apartment, the monthly rent was more than 500 dollars.
Vivienne’s income was about 2000 a month, and Mrs. Quinn worked as a sanitation worker in a hotel, earning more than 1000 a month. The income of the mother and daughter in Washington DC was really just enough to survive.
Damien thought of the five thousand that Vivienne gave to buy the car, and she must save that for a long time.
It was nothing to Damien, but to Vivienne, it took her a long time to
save.
Seeing Damien looking around the rental house, Vivienne felt a little embarrassed, “There is only plain water at home, is it okay for you to drink that?”
There wasn’t even coffee at home, and she didn’t usually drink coffee.
The apartment was too small and there was no dining room. Vivienne usually ate on the table in the living room.
Compared with Damien’s three–bedroom house, this apartment was really small, so Vivienne was naturally embarrassed.
But there was no look of disgust in Damien’s eyes, and he sat down on the sofa, “Yes.”
Vivienne poured water for Damien, and Mrs. Quinn suddenly said, “Vivienne, Damien is on vacation today, so you can move in with him today, you can’t live here all the time after you get married.”
Vivienne looked at Mrs. Quinn in surprise, “Mom, then what about you?”
The meaning in Mrs. Quinn’s words was obvious she didn’t intend to live them together.
“Didn’t you pay a year’s rent before, it’s not due yet, and the landlord won’t refund the money, what a waste, so, I just live here, I’m old, so I’d better not bother you two.” Mrs. Quinn Then looked at Damien and said with a smile, “Damien, take her with you.”
Mrs. Quinn was a smart person. Just now when Damien went to check out, Vivienne mentioned to her that Damien wanted to let her live with them.
It was considerate enough of Damien to have this kind of thought, since they had just got married and had no relationship foundation, she knew it was not suitable for her to live with them.
Vivienne said anxiously, “Mom, I can’t leave you alone. Your health is not good, you need someone to take care of you.”
Damien knew why Mrs. Quinn refused to live with them, and said, “Mrs. Quinn, let’s move there together. The environment over there is better and you can save a lot on rent. As for the rent you paid before, I will communicate with the landlord and ask him to return it. Both Vivienne and I are worried about your health.”
Damien knew that they were frugal, so this was why he mentioned the rent to persuade Mrs. Quinn to agree with him.
Mrs. Quinn shook her head and insisted, “I’m used to living here, and Willow Garden is not far from here, if there’s anything I need, I’ll just call you. Vivienne, don’t dawdle, pack your things quickly, and follow Damien home.“.
Neither of them could hold back Mrs. Quinn, and Mrs. Quinn insisted on letting Vivienne move out today.
So Vivienne had no choice but to give in. Thinking that there was just 20 minute’s drive between her rental apartment and the Willow Garden, she didn’t force Mrs. Quinn anymore. She packed her clothes and moved into the Willow Garden with Damien.
