His Real Wedded Bride novel Chapter 873

Peggy looked at Sue with pleading eyes and begged, "Child, I know you have suffered a lot. But you should also think about me, your mother. Please help me. I promise this will be the last time. When this matter is settled, I won't cause any more trouble for you."

Sue began hesitating as she heard Peggy's words. She didn't know whether to believe her mother or not.

Luckily, Sheryl was much calmer than Sue. She glimpsed at Peggy and said indifferently, "Aunt, we all know you are facing difficulties, but have you ever thought about your daughter's difficulties?"

Peggy arched a brow when she heard Sheryl's words.

She glanced at Peggy and added, "Fine, I'll call the usury lenders and ask them not to charge the interest. You should return the five hundred thousand. Only this way, can the matter be settled."

She paused for a moment to think and then added, "We can only offer appropriate money for Allen's wedding, but not as much as you asked for. After all, marriage is supposed to based on love, not money. And it is not Sue's responsibility to pay for Allen's wedding."

"You..." Peggy stammered out of anger. Peggy was annoyed with Sheryl because a moment ago Sue was beginning to sympathize with her and now she was siding with Sheryl.

Peggy frowned ignoring Sheryl and said, "Sue, it's so hard for your brother to find a girl willing to marry him. I can't destroy their wedding plans because of money, otherwise, he will resent me for the rest of my life."

"Mom, you don't have to pretend to be so sad," Sue said with a sigh. If Sheryl hadn't been there to stick up for her, she would have been deceived by Peggy once again.

Sue looked at Peggy and added, "Sher is right. Marriage is not based on money. I really appreciate that Doris is willing to marry Allen and I will do my best to help her in the future if that's what she wants. But, she shouldn't be asking for so much money as a wedding gift. I can't help but doubt her real intentions. Besides, all the money that I have earned these years has been sent to you. So how can I give you that much money now?

There are only two choices for you. You can take the money from the usury lenders to finish the wedding but they will go to you every day and I must remind you that they are all brutal guys." Sue paused for a moment and added, "Or, you can return the money back as Sher suggested. As for Allen's wedding, I'll deal with it. Maybe they should have it in our village because it will cost much less than in the city."

"No!" Peggy rejected decisively. She looked at Sue extremely annoyed and asked, "Do you mean to tell me that you won't help in this matter?"

"I want to but I don't have the means to help you," Sue said indifferently.

"Don't try to deceive me. You may not have money, but Anthony has!" Peggy sneered and threatened, "Anthony is the father of your unborn child so he is obligated to offer some money. If you feel reluctant to ask him for money, I will do it for you. Either way, I won't allow my son's wedding to be held in some village. We won't have it anywhere but here!"

Sue gave a bitter smile. "So it seems that we can't make a compromise, right?"

Peggy glared at Sheryl with ferocious eyes. She hated Sheryl for preventing Sue from agreeing with her requirements.

All of her plans had been destroyed by Sheryl.

She looked at Sue with cold eyes and said, "Sue, will you agree with my request? This is the last time that I am going to ask you."

"I won't agree," Sue rejected without any hesitation.

A cold smile appeared on Peggy's face. "Then don't blame me for what I will do next."

With that she turned and left in a huff. Sue watched as her mother left and felt uneasy by her threatening words.
