With that, Monica snorted out laughing. "They might even get married faster than Gareth!"
Thud!
With a dark expression on his face, Gareth placed his chopsticks on the table.
The rest of the table looked at him, perplexed.
Monica returned to her senses and said, "Son, it's not worth getting angry over her. Now that you have Linda, you have to take into account her feelings as well. She is a great woman who is smart and generous – a perfect match to be your wife."
Darren also nodded approvingly. "That's right. We will have to work with the Benett family continuously from now onward. If you marry her, it would be perfect."
Gareth's frown had never eased all this while. "We're in a critical juncture now, and I have a lawsuit to attend two days later. Let's revisit this topic later."
Julia could not help give another sigh. Even though she did not support the divorce, the remaining family were determined to make that a reality, so there was no use in her objection at all.
Even if I force the couple to stay together, or even if they take my feelings into account and decide to stay together, would they be happy in their marriage?
Darren nodded. "Well, I'm not asking you to get married immediately – it won't make us look good as well. But you can start preparing for the wedding in two to three months' time."
Gareth's lips were pursed into a thin line. "Let's talk about this later. You guys go ahead with the meal, I'm full."
With that, he got up. Upon seeing their gazes, he explained morosely, "I have to get back to work, so I'll leave first."
Monica quickly stood up. "Gareth. You–"
Ignoring her, he walked out of the room without even a second glance.
