Chapter 1645
“Will you and my brothers not seek justice if I were together with Remy and got bullied by the Johnsons?”
Elisa returned a question to her mother.
“Besides, I’m not someone who’s easily bullied. It has always been me bullying other people.”
Mrs. Stone choked for a moment and said, “You can act recklessly in Wiltspoon, and no one will dare to do anything to you. That’s because you have the huge Stone Group behind your back. Clive can back you up and clean up your mess.
“If you were to be with Remy, you’d live in Annenburg. Who’ll dote on you and be your shoulder to rely on if you move to a faraway place after marriage?”
Elisa argued her case. “Remy’s job is based in Wiltspoon, and he lives here long–term. I’ll be living in Wiltspoon in the future with him as well. Even if we must return to Annenburg, it’ll only be during the festive seasons to accompany his parents.
“What trouble can arise from that? Besides, you’re aware of what type of family the Johnsons are. The Johnsons are open–minded. They won’t bully their daughter–in–law.”
Mrs. Stone said, “Which of the Johnsons‘ daughters–in–law are easy to deal with? All of them have people backing them.”
The eldest Johnson missus was a Lafayette from Meadspring while the second was an heiress of a wealthy family. The fourth was most likely the genius doctor’s student. All of them could not be offended.
“Don’t I have a backing as well? Is Stone Group not going to be my backing if I get married and move to a faraway place? When I return, will the doors of the Stones‘ house not open for me anymore?”
Mrs. Stone was reduced to silence by her daughter’s retorts but also furious.
“If you’re worried about me marrying into a family like the Johnsons, I think you can just make me stay by your side and become an unmarried woman forever. Don’t even complain about me not getting married despite reaching thirty years old in the future.”
Mrs. Stone was speechless.
“You little brat. Can’t you be considerate of how much I’ll miss you? Everything I said boils down to one point. I can’t bear you moving to somewhere far after getting married. I only have one daughter. If you marry someone who lives far away, I’ll have to sit in the airplane for several hours whenever I want to meet you.”
“Remy’s new house is just beside ours. You won’t have to take a few–hour flight. You can meet me in just two to three minutes of walking. I can even go home and have meals with you every day.
Mrs. Stone said, “Remy will eventually have to return to Annenburg.”
