Seriously, How Did He Win My Heart novel Chapter 797

"It's OK, Mr. Hilgard. Only then can Jean and I cherish each other more." As a person with a high EQ, Arthur's kind words made Mr. Hilgard less embarrassed. Mr. Hilgard, thus, gave Arthur a thankful look.

Mrs. Hilgard did not continue to embarrass Mr. Hilgard and the dinner for the four ended happily.

After dinner, a chauffeur drove Mr. Hilgard away and Jean and Arthur gave Mrs. Hilgard a lift.

When Mr. Hilgard was about to leave, he tried many times to say something to Mrs. Hilgard. But Mrs. Hilgard did not give him a look and he had to give up.

Mr. Hilgard had accepted the fact that Mrs. Hilgard would not forgive him for a good while. So, he was calm down—as long as they did not get divorced, he still had a chance to ask her for forgiveness.

A week later, Arthur's parents returned from abroad. After coming over jet lag, they made a special visit to Jean's parents in Zoshalor and discussed Jean and Arthur's marriage.

The marriage gifts that Abigail and Brandon brought were so generous that Jean's parents were surprised.

Jean was also amazed. She did know that Arthur's parents would take gifts this time, but she did not expect the great quantity.

She pulled Arthur out of the room and asked in a low voice, "Why did your parents prepare so many gifts? Isn't it too much?"

The sets of jewelry Arthur's mother brought were incredibly stunning, not to mention gifts that could not be seen here, such as stocks, certificates of real estate ownership, and so on. The Hilgards, a family of professional jewelers, had not seen two sets of them before; even so, Jean knew how invaluable they were.

Arthur did not care about it. "No. Anyway, it will be yours, sooner or later."

Jean frowned and shook her head. "I don't want them. Please tell your parents to take them back. Thanks for your kindness."

Arthur took her into his arms and coaxed her, "You silly little girl, no one would turn down marriage gifts, indeed."

At the same time, Abigail was talking with Jean's parents with enthusiasm, "I really love Jean to be my daughter-in-law, so I want to give her the best things in the world. Don't mind the gifts. We still think it's not expensive enough."

Abigail saw that Jean's parents were shocked by the gifts so she conveyed her love for Jean at once; because of the love, she was willing to send all she could get to Jean and her parents.

Mrs. Hilgard was gratified by Abigail's warmth. She was glad that she had stuck to her daughter's side. Arthur was kind enough and his parents were easygoing as well. Jean would be in endless happiness and sweetness when she married Arthur and lived with this nice family.

Jean and Arthur stayed outside for a while. Actually, Jean wanted to come in earlier, but Arthur smooched with her and did not let her go.

After they went into the room, they were told that the wedding would be held in a month. Jean was surprised by the news.

She spoke out her opinion immediately, "Don't you think it's too early?"

Her mom stopped her and said, "Not at all. You are old enough. By the way, your friends have already got their babies!"

Jean explained, "I mean… Is it too fast to hold a wedding in a month, isn't it?"

As a matter of fact, Jean did not think it was too hasty to have a wedding. Arthur had determined the whole wedding process and its details; he even discussed many things with the wedding team one day.

So, even if they were holding the wedding right now, it was not hasty at all.

It was Jean's mind that could not accept a wedding in the near future.

Again, Jean's mother stopped her. "You've got your certificates. If you don't have a wedding quickly, others will think you get fake ones."

Jean did not know what to say.

Abigail said with a smile, "If you get your certificates and don't have a wedding, some people will think about whether the Hudgens look down upon you or disagree with your marriage. But how could that be? The whole family is very satisfied with you. We don't allow others to backbite us like this.
