At this point Talia looked amiable, the corners of her eyes bent slightly, glanced at Darren on the side, turned back to Catherine, the force in her hand slowly increased, and finally released.
Talia held the ring on her other hand with one hand and took it off little by little, then she grabbed Catherine's hand again, but this time it was her finger, and without waiting for Catherine to refuse, Talia pushed the ring up directly, her face showing joy, but her words seemed extraordinarily serious.
"Catherine, since you are the daughter-in-law of the Kirkland family, it is time for this item to be handed over to you. This ring was given to me by my mother-in-law, and now I am handing it over to you in the same capacity, although this item is not precious, it has been passed down in the Kirkland family for several generations. "
Catherine could clearly feel the residual warmth left by Talia on the ring, which reminded her that she was not dreaming, everything was real!
What! A symbol of the Kirkland family's daughter-in-law? Why is it so dramatic? Isn't this a scene that should appear in a drama? How could it happen to me?
Catherine's mouth grew, a series of question marks in her mind, incredulous at what was before her.
"It's...it's too expensive, I can't take it." Catherine didn't have time to think too much and replied stiffly. She and Darren had only gotten their license suddenly and in a hurry, so she didn't dare to take the symbolic ring.
"What! You don't want to be my daughter-in-law of THE Kirkland family?" Talia feigned anger.
"I ...... I ......" Catherine was so asked by Talia, open-mouthed I half a day, feel justified, do not know what to say.
Darren winked at Catherine from the sidelines and told her to take it.
After Catherine saw it, she frowned sadly and said in her heart: "It's come to this, we can only take one step at a time.
After Catherine made her decision, she stopped pushing back and opened her mouth to explain her attitude just now, "Mom, I just think the ring is too expensive, not that I don't want to be the Kirkland family's daughter-in-law."
"That's good, it's valuable or not, it's going to be in your hands sooner or later anyway." Talia's face was filled with an unspeakable smile, she was quite satisfied with Catherine, although not a famous girl, but just as Darren said, she does not play some scheming mind.
Catherine could only smile sarcastically, feeling the unusual weight of the ring on her wrist, which was no lighter than a small mountain! If Talia knew the real reason for their marriage, she would be furious.
"Well, Catherine ah, I have some other things, so I will not accompany you and Yihan to dinner." The more Talia looked at Catherine, the better she looked at her, and her tone of voice was quite calm.
"Ah, you're leaving, I just made soup especially for you."
Hey, it seems that the soup is white, but it is good to go, together with the dinner is not necessarily how awkward it.
Talia's contrast, Catherine can also appreciate, but she thought in her mind, Darren and herself is not necessarily the case, if one day Darren and her divorce, she will see Talia again must be embarrassed to death? So she thought it was better to do more than nothing now.
Darren and Catherine then escorted Talia out the door, and the moment they returned home and closed the door, Catherine slipped the ring Talia had put on her finger straight off.
Catherine handed the ring to Darren, opened her little mouth, and said, "Here."
Darren gave a light eek, and then a smile was put on his face, and the smile was hidden with deep meaning: "What are you giving me, that's my mother's gift to you, not to me."
Hearing Darren's reluctant explanation, Catherine could not help but be a little speechless, your mother gave me, then we two divorced how to do? You'll come back to me for it? It will be more embarrassing then, might as well just give it to you!
