Selena Holland just got up at this time, ate breakfast and was about to go to work before Georgia Lane called her.
When they had breakfast in the morning, the whole family sat in the table, Jasper Holland and Selena Holland sat aside, their parents sat opposite to them.
Elliot glared at her son angrily.
"Jasper, this is the final offer. Today you have to go to the Johnson family to talk about marriage. No more excuse about finding Robert this time, you must be there in person today. Robert is out of danger now, how long do you want to postpone this? "
Jasper sighed helplessly, he suddenly thought that as he pushed it back for so long, and Robert was totally fine, why he couldn’t disappear for longer? Now he himself was in trouble.
Jasper compromised to his mother.
"Well, Mom, you can arrange everything. Buy some gifts for them and I will show up on time. I have tried my best to marry her, if you wanted me to apple-polish to her parents, it is absolute impossible."
Bailey yelled at him right away.
"Show some of your respect to them. Jennifer's parents will be your father-in-law no matter what. Where is your 20-years manners?"
Jasper sighed helplessly.
"Anyway, I am forced to marry a woman, then I gave you a grandson to finish my task. Don't put other things on me."
Elliot was so pissed off by her son.
"If you say the nonsense one more time, I will kick you out of the family, let lose every penny you have right now."
Jasper actually wanted to argue, he also had his own assets outside and he didn’t need to rely on the family.
Just, it was not necessary to piss off parents for this thing.
"I know, you can rest assured, I promise to marry Jennifer so I won’t regret. Why you seem to be afraid that I will flee from the marriage, don’t worry, I will marry her."
Elliot felt relief a bit, and she asked Selena who was eating breakfast silently.
"How are you and Jason doing recently? I have already put you guy’s marriage to the agenda. I didn't hear from the Murphy family. Is there something between you guys?"
Selena barely raised her head and shook her head.
"No, Mom, it was because Robert was missing, Jason was busy looking for Robert. The Murphy family was investigating on the banquet, they had to give the Simpson family how everything happened. They didn’t have time for the engagement and maybe they would talk about this later."
Selena found an excuse, in fact, she was extremely sad already.
But in front of her parents and her brother, she couldn't show her sadness.
She was so afraid that everyone knew she liked Jasper. As it already embarrassed enough that Elliot had known that, she would kill herself if her dad and Jasper found out it as well.
Elliot believed what she said.
Robert’s missing did make the Simpson family in chaos. He missed in the Murphy family and they have to investigate this clearly.
"I know, you should maintain a good relationship with Jason. Your brother will get married this year, you and Jason would be better get married as well. So that we will double our happiness."
Jasper disdained.
"Jason is such a playboy like me, are you sure you want my sister to married him? He is not a good son-in-law."
Jasper was teasing but Elliot frowned after she heard that.
"It’s not your business, you are still in trouble and even want to control others. Get out, I don’t want to see you again!"
Jasper smiled awkwardly, he just finished breakfast and put plates down, he said to his parents.
"Dad, Mom, I will go to work. As for the things of the Johnson family, you can call me after buying gifts. I will pick you up."
Elliot nodded, Jasper left.
Selena also finished breakfast at this time, she stood up.
"Dad, Mom, I am full now, I will go to work first."
After heard this, Bailey and Elliot nodded.
"Take care."
After Selena went outside, she found her brother was sitting in the car. When he saw Selena coming out from the house, Jasper rolled down the window.
"Selena, I'll take you to work, I have a lot of free time today."
Selena didn't refuse him. After she sat down, Jasper smiled and asked.
"You have kept silent in the morning. Did you encounter something unhappy?"
Selena shook her head quickly.
