I'm A Quadrillionaire novel Chapter 223

Chapter 223
“Is it David?” Asked Jon.
“Dad! I’ve never moved in with anyone!”
“Who’s David?” asked Mindy.
Jon told Mindy all about David’s rescue of Celia.
“What? A delivery boy? Celia, I’m telling you. I’ll never allow you to be together! How is a delivery boy good enough for my daughter?” Exclaimed Mindy.
“Mom! What’s wrong with delivering food? Besides, David only works part-time. It’s not like h e delivers food all the time!” Celia shouted back too.
Mindy could criticize her, but not David.
David risked his own life to save her.
“So you admit it?” Mindy felt her blood pressure increasing a little.
Was her daughter dating a classmate who delivered food?
How could she accept that?
Celia had always been her pride.
She had trained Celia from an early age, regardless of the cost.
Celia was hardworking too. She could play the piano, play chess, calligraphy, sing, dance, and d o almost everything
Most importantly, she cultivated Celia’s temperament.
She believed her daughter was the absolute center of attention wherever she went.
However, such an excellent daughter had chosen to be with a delivery boy.
Even if he was not a delivery boy, he was working part-time delivering food instead of studying hard in high school. How well off could his family be?
No!
She could not let David ruin her daughter.
They had to break up.
“You must break up at once!” Mindy ordered Celia.
“No! I want to be with David! He risked his life to save me. It’s okay that you don’t thank him, but how could you say such a thing?” Cried Celia.
“Celia! David saved your life, and we’re very grateful to him, but you shouldn’t give yourselft o him just because he saved your life. This isn’t love. You just want to repay his kindness. You won’t be happy in the future!” Advised Jon.
“Dad, how do you know we won’t be happy? David’s strong-minded, ambitious, optimistic, and cheerful. He’s a hundred times better than the Joshua Mom had just introduced!”
“You… You’re trying to piss me off!” Mindy was so mad at Celia that she could not say a word.
Jon had a headache too.
His daughter seemed to have made up her mind about David.
Oh! He had been careless.
When his daughter was rescued, he should have talked her through and given David some money as compensation.
Given David’s family situation, he would not say no. In that case, they would not have faced these problems afterward!
Her daughter was young, and someone had risked their lives to save her, so the tall figure must have occupied a space in her heart.
Besides, the two of them were classmates. It would be weird if they did not develop feelings for each other when they were together every day.
What should they do?
He did not really care!
If David was indeed as Celia said, he was not against them dating.
He thought his daughter had always been a good girl, but then she suddenly did something like that without telling her parents, so he found it hard to accept.
Besides that, they had lived together for a year without them knowing who the boy was.
Now that he knew it was David, who had saved his daughter’s life, he had no comments.
Someone who would risk their lives to save a passer-by must be a kind person.
He had no requirements about money and background.
He just had to be good to his daughter and she had to like him.
Their family did not lack money, and in his opinion, having too much money was of no use.
However, that was not the case for his wife, Mindy!
He had struggled in the business world for years and had known many excellent boys.
A guy from a small town like David was no match for these guys.
Besides, his wife was a very proud woman. If her friends and partners in the business world learned that she had gotten such a son-in-law, she would dig a hole in the ground to bury herself in.
What a headache!
One was his daughter.
The other was his wife.
He did not know what to do!
“Jon, what do you suggest we do? It’s all your fault! We had an obedient daughter. It’s only been a couple of years and look how you raised her to be! What’s the point of me working my butt off out there?” Mindy scolded as she pointed at Jon.
“Why don’t… we meet David first?” Jon asked carefully.
“Meet him? What good is there meeting a man from a shabby county?” Rejected Mindy.
“Mom! I won’t have you talking about David like that!”
“You… You really want to piss me off, don’t you?”
“Alright, alright! Stop arguing, you two! I think we should meet David! He saved our daughter’s life after all. Without him, she wouldn’t be sitting here right now. What’s the point of our lives then? Don’t you think so, Darling?” Asked Jon.
Mindy stopped talking.
She was not unreasonable.
She was grateful that David risked his life to save her daughter.
However, he could not just save someone and steal them away without saying a word!
If David were her daughter’s classmate at Greenwood University, she would have accepted him if he was from a better family.
However, David was from a small county and did not even seem to be from an established family, which made it difficult for her to accept.
.Her daughter was excellent.
Just look at Joshua and his mother’s reaction today.
The Houston family was an affluent family with hundreds of billions of dollars in assets. The heir of such a family could not take his eyes off her daughter.
If David became her son-in-law, her friends in business would find out about it. How was she supposed to hold her head up then?
It could not happen!
It would be nice to meet David.
She would let him know the difference between him and Celia and then slip him some money s o he would leave Celia.
A grassroots member from a small county like David had probably never seen one hundred thousand dollars.
“That’s settled then!’
After figuring it out, Mindy turned to Celia and said, “Celia, don’t blame me! I’ve been there before. And I want to be with you all the time, taking care of my husband and child at home, but your father isn’t good enough. His scant salary could only keep us from starving, but I want the best for you. So I could only work my butt off. Otherwise, how do you think you got this big house and the car you drive? Trust me! I won’t hurt you!”
