His Real Wedded Bride novel Chapter 405

"You..." Fiona was literally shaking in anger and humiliation. Her face became red. She could barely tolerate the insult but looking at her husband and son coyly giving in to the situation, she had no other choice than to become quiet.

"Fine." Colin walked up towards Fiona and said, "Mom, let's go. It's an important day for Aron and you presence is ruining the party for everyone."

Then he quietly escorted her out. Albert followed them immediately.

One could have heard a pin drop in the room for a while. And then Mike spoke. He covered his face with his two hands and heaved a sigh, "I'm so unfortunate to have such a disobedient son."

"Calm down. Otherwise, it will effect your health." Joanna patted Mike's back gently and persuaded him, "We all are well aware of Fiona's nature. This is nothing new to us. So there is no point in getting angry with her."

Mike managed to bring a smile on his face but could not hide the pain. He turned to John and said, "I'm so sorry for... what happened today."

"It's Okay." John spoke after exchanging a glance with Jina, "Actually, that lady needn't worry so much. We have discuss about the money for our daughter's wedding well in advance."

He stopped for a moment and added, "We... don't want any money from you."

"What?" Mike, Joanna and even Aron were taken aback. Aron said to John, "Please don't take Fiona's words to your heart. The money... is paid by me. It has nothing to do with my grandparents. So please don't feel the pressure to take it."

"It's not the money that concerns us." John smiled and said to Aron, "The economic gap between my family and yours is immense. But it doesn't matter because we believe that Aron will treat Isla well. No matter whether Aron is rich or not, we give our consent to their marriage."

John paused for a moment and continued, "I don't want to be considered to have allowed Isla to marry Aron only for his family's fame or money. So I spoke with Jina and both of us mutually decided not to accept your money."

"It's inappropriate..." Aron frowned and said, "This money is for your pension when you are old. You have spent a lot to bring Isla up and now she has to leave you after getting married to me. This money... is not enough to express my appreciation for you so I hope you won't refuse it."

"Aron." Jina looked at Aron and said, "I can tell that you really love Isla from what you said to Isla's aunt. I think your heart for Isla is the best gift for her and us."

"We aren't old yet and with God's grace are also in good health. When we get old, please come and pay visits to us often with Isla. That will make us happier that anything else." Then she added, "Let's make a deal. John and I almost know nothing about how to prepare for a wedding, so... thank you for your help."

Mike and Joanna tried with all their might to persuade them to accept the money but failed.

The plan of the wedding was decided quickly, albeit following a small episode. When they all came out of the restaurant, Isla took her parents to the shopping mall and bought them new clothes and gifts for the Spring Festival.

Then Isla prolonged her stay in Y City for several days before she went back to the countryside with Aron.

At the new year's eve, Autumn called everyone from the Zhao family to her home including Emily to celebrate together. Chris called Edward to invite him but he didn't answer the phone.

Chris was worried and called Edward again and again but she couldn't get through. In the afternoon, Edward called her back and Chris finally felt assured. She charged him out of concern, "Why didn't you answer my calls?"
