I'm A Quadrillionaire novel Chapter 222

Chapter 222
“Celia, I’m not anxious to marry you off. I’m just trying to find you some great guy. Just like Joshua. His height, appearance, status, and background are at least better than those still in school! I just don’t want you to waste your time with poor students.”
“What makes him better than anyone else? Isn’t he just a rich heir who only relied on his parents?” Retorted Celia.
“So what if he’s a rich heir? What’s wrong with rich heirs? As long as he’s kind, ambitious, and has his parents help him, he might be able to outshine his parents in the future!”
“Alright! Alright! You’re right! But I’m still young! I don’t want to date so early! Will you stop pushing me?” Pleaded Celia.
“No! Something’s wrong! Do you have a boyfriend at school?” Mindy asked suddenly.
“Wh… what? I… I have no boyfriend! Don’t make things up!” Celia replied nervously.
“There’s something fishy about your nervousness. I’ve been in the business world for years. D o you think I can’t see what you’re up to? Tell me… Who on earth is he?” Mindy said sternly.
Jon also put down his newspaper and looked at Celia.
He had no idea his daughter had a boyfriend.
If it was true, this was serious and needed to be addressed.
Girls got bullied easily.
“Mom! It’s true! Could you stop making things up?”
“Jon! Look at the good daughter you raised!”
“Celia, tell me if you have a boyfriend. We’re not making things hard for you, but you as a girl must have self-respect, got it?” Said Jon.
“Dad! I… I really don’t have one! How could you not believe me?” Celia said aggrievedly.
“Did he go to high school with you? Or did he go to your university?”
“Wait a minute!’
Something recurred to Jon!
Celia followed him to Shu City for a year of high school. He was transferred back, but she refused to come back and wanted to continue school there, saying she should learn to be independent since she had grown up!
He thought his daughter had grown up.
‘Looking back, could they have gotten together at the time?’
‘During that year, we only went to see her occasionally. They didn’t move in then, did they? It’s possible!
Jon was heartbroken by the thought.
Some punk had managed to charm his beautiful daughter.
If he knew who it was, he would break his legs.
“Celia, tell me the truth! Did you refuse to follow me back during senior year just to be with him?” Jon asked after calming down.
“What? Celia, so you didn’t want to come back during senior year so you could be with him? Speak… Were you living together at that time? Do you think you’re ready to spread your wings and leave the nest, you damned girl? How dare you move in with someone else without telling us? Are you trying to piss us off?” Mindy was so mad after hearing what Jon said.
Had their daughter moved in with someone else without telling them?
That was simply atrocious!
The point was that they did not even know who the boy was! That was what infuriated them the most
“Dad! Mom! What are you talking about? I didn’t move in with anyone.” Celia was on the verge of tears.
“Jon, you’ve done such a good job. How could you not have known that something was going o n with your daughter? How did you raise our children?” Mindy turned to question Jon.
Jon said nothing.
It was indeed his fault.
He figured out who it was.
David Lidell!
A boy who saved his daughter’s life, who was also her classmate.
He remembered his daughter often mentioning him at that time.
He even asked his daughter to invite him over, but he seemed to have rejected.
He was also busy with work at that time, so he did not pay it any more attention.
He did not even have time to thank David.
Now it seemed that he had indeed failed in his duties as a father.
