Returning from the Dead: His Secret Lover novel Chapter 1939

Chapter 1939

She was right. Sasha and Sebastian didn’t mind, but if this were to happen in an ordinary family, the bride would be looked down upon by her in-laws.

Susan’s cheeks turned pink when she finally understood what her mother meant. She had never considered that before.

“1-1 didn’t know about that. You can call the shots,” she faltered.

After a brief hesitation, Sigrith made up her mind. “Mm. What do you need? I’ll have to prepare household electrical appliances, a carjewelry, and the sort according to traditional customs. I think your in-laws have prepared those. Why don’t I buy you a house?”

A house? Susan was shocked by her suggestion. That’s expensive. One house costs at least millions. After we get married, we7l stay in Oceanic Estate. Who will live in this house, then?

Susan couldn’t make up her mind.

Right then, Ian came upstairs. The door to her room was shut, so he frowned and knocked on the door. “Susan, what are you doing inside?” he pressed.

Shocked, Susan ended the call and hurried over to open the door.

“Ian, you’re awake?”

The tall young man stood at the door. Noticing her averted gaze, he brooded unhappily. Why did she ask that?

“Who were you talking to on the phone? You chatted for so long.”

“1-1 was talking to my mom,” Susan replied as she hung her head low shyly.

The call reminded her of their engagement. After resolving the misunderstanding, they confessed their feelings for each other and then planned their engagement. Everything had happened in the blink of an eye.

She dared not meet his gaze.

“Your mom?”

Fortunately, Ian was reminded of the conversation he had with his mother a while ago.

The tips of his ears turned red.

“What did she say?” he asked.

“S-She asked if she should prepare a dowry for our engagement. She even suggested buying a… house for us. By then, we can do anything we want without asking for the elders’ permission.”

Susan’s head was so low that it was practically in front of her chest.

After revealing the content of her conversation with Sigrith, she couldn’t help but blush.

Mom was talking nonsense.

To her surprise, Ian nodded in agreement. “That’s a great idea.”

“Huh?” Susan lifted her head at once. “Do you think it’s a good idea?”

Huh? How could he say that so matter-of-factly?

I’d love that, too. I want nothing more than to build our own house together. Imagine how blissful we can be in our own home. Nevertheless, won’t his parents get upset?

Matteo: Ian, I heard you’re going to marry Susan. Congratulations!

He replied: Yeah. Remember to come home early.
