Let's Get Married novel Chapter 616

Ryan's words surprise Lorraine, but it is clear to her that Ryan and Eunice are not in some filthy relationship. They truly love each other.

Convinced of this, Lorraine feels a little lighter in her heart. She doesn't accept Ryan's suggestion immediately and says that she wants to consider it.

"Ryan," Before Ryan leaves, Lorraine says to him seriously, "Eunice is a very, very good girl. She is innocent, sensible, firm, and self-respecting. I've never worried about her since she was a kid. For some reason, her father didn't fulfill his responsibility to this family, and I was always sick. This family is supported by her. Although we are poor, I can guarantee that Eunice is not a greedy girl. Now that I finally recovered and she finally went back to school to complete her studies, I didn't expect her to...."

At the end of her sentence, Lorraine almost choked with tears.

Lorraine recalls the smile on her daughter's face on the day the semester began. Her heart feels an unbearable pain as if it is fried in a pot of oil.

Every word she says is like a knife in Ryan's heart. He moves his cheeks and grits his teeth to hold back the tears in his eyes. "I know, she's good, better than anyone else."

...

Eunice's treatment is still under discussion. Meanwhile, Ryan takes care of everything in Eunice's school. Lorraine is by the hospital bed almost all the time. Worried about her health, Karl sets up an extra bed in the room for her to rest at night.

As for Thomas, apart from the first few days, he rarely comes to the hospital. Fearing that Thomas’ immaturity may cause him trouble, Ryan sends people to follow him, only to find that he works part-time every day.

On his busiest day, he works as many as five part-time jobs, starting at six o'clock in the morning and ending at four o'clock in the next morning. He even sells stuff in the bar.

Ryan can't stand it. One night, he drives to the bar where Thomas works. When he enters, he hears a deafening DJ sound. Men and women are dancing on the floor. There is a circular stage in the middle. Beside the stage are small tables, followed by a circle of sofa seats.

Behind Ryan are an assistant and two bodyguards. He directly enters one of the private rooms. Not long after, the assistant sends for Thomas, who is wearing a black shirt and a white bow tie.

Thomas has a polite smile on his face when he steps into the room, but when he sees the man sitting on the sofa, his smile vanishes.

"Why are you here?" Thomas is only eighteen years old, and his emotions are written on his face. His words convey his panic and displeasure.

Ryan pretends not to notice Thomas’ emotions. His posture on the sofa doesn't change at all. His sharp gaze pierces through the air and lands on Thomas’ young face. "What's that on your collar? Do you think you're Hello Kitty?"

The light sentence smashes into Thomas’ ears and becomes the biggest insult.

Thomas’ face turns green and red. Facing such a mature, steady, and exceptionally powerful man, he can only reply powerlessly, "This is my job."

"I know." Ryan's tone is still indifferent. He raises his head and looks around the private room. In the end, his gaze lands back on Thomas’ face. "This room will be recorded as your performance."

"..."

It's obviously good for Thomas. After all, this room isn't cheap. He can earn a lot of money from it. Thomas has been trying to get people to order private rooms, but now that Ryan has done so, he is humiliated.

The private room is soundproof. After closing the door, no noise from the outside can be heard.

Ryan stares at Thomas who is straightening his body and glaring at him angrily. After a long while, he suddenly stands up and walks toward him. His footsteps are steady, and his expensive leather shoes land on the ground with crisp sounds. It carries an invisible pressure.

Thomas watches as Ryan approaches him bit by bit. The more he approaches, the more powerful the aura on him becomes. When Ryan walks past his shoulder, Thomas almost holds his breath.
