"Eva, Vinton must be very happy to have you here with him," said Ingrid.
"Ingrid, you are pregnant. You should take good care of yourself. You don't have to come with me in the future," said Vinton. He only wanted Eva to be with him.
Hearing this, Ingrid felt very uncomfortable. After all, she was his wife. He needed to treat them with equality. How could he show his preferential?
"Vinton, I'll take care of you with Eva. I'm not that fragile, and my child is also very strong," said Ingrid.
"Honey, don't be willful." Vinton's tone was not heavy, but there was a bit of sternness on his face.
Ingrid lowered her eyes, and her thick long eyelashes cast two deep shadows on her white eyelids.
When Eva came back, Jim had already come back.
"Did you go to see Vinton?" he asked.
"Yes." Eva nodded.
"How's his leg?" Jim said slowly.
"There will be an operation in a few days," said Eva.
"Come home with me tomorrow and discuss the wedding ceremony," said Jim.
Eva was shocked, "Wedding ceremony! So fast?"
"Is it fast? I don't think it's too slow. Zac's youngest child can run an errand for him now. Shouldn't I get married as soon as possible?" Jim frowned, apparently dissatisfied with her reaction.
"I want to discuss our wedding after Vinton's leg recovers," Eva lowered her head and said in a very low voice.
"He cured his leg, and I got married. Does that have anything to do between the two matters?" Jim glared at her. This stupid woman even delayed their wedding for Vinton. Did she deserve a lesson?
"I want to pay off all my debts to Vinton and get married. Then I won't feel guilty," Eva said in a low voice.
"You don't owe Vinton anything. Before marriage, everyone has the right to make a choice. And you thought he was dead and you didn't do anything wrong to him," said Jim.
"If Vinton didn't give me his life jacket, I should be the one who had an accident in the tsunami, not him," said Eva.
"That's his own choice. If that's the case, you haven't paid off the favor you owe me until today, so you have to pay it back with the rest of your life." Jim pinched her chin.
"I've been tortured by you every day. Isn't it enough to pay your debt of gratitude?" Eva rolled her eyes at him. She had paid her debt of gratitude with her body.
"It's not enough. You have to repay me with a child and the rest of your life," Jim said in a domineering tone.
"You are so arbitrary. You must be the reincarnation of a mixed demon." Eva glanced at him coquettishly.
"You are so lucky. You must have saved the Milky way in your previous life, or I wouldn't have liked you," Jim retorted.
Eva didn't refute. Instead, she felt that she was lucky to meet two outstanding, perfect and loving men, Vinton and Jim.
Normally, it was very lucky for a woman to meet an excellent man, and she met two.
She must have saved the Milky way in her previous life.
"Whether you want it or not, Daddy and Mommy have arranged the wedding date. If you don't want to get married, you can tell them in person tomorrow."
Eva was dumbfounded. How could it be possible for her to cancel the wedding with the media king and Mrs. Kerry?
Did she want to stay in the entertainment industry anymore? Did she want to live in Dragon City?
"When?" she asked nervously.
"Three months later, the wedding is supposed to take half a year to prepare. Considering that you may be pregnant, it's not good to wear a wedding dress if your belly is too big, so they made it three months earlier," Jim said slowly.
"All right." Eva gave up resisting. She found that Jim was reminding her, not asking for her opinion. Therefore, she had no right to speak or veto at all. She only had the obligation to agree.
Jim was very satisfied with her obedience. He stroked her head and said, "You have to be so obedient from now on, understand?"
Eva gave him a ferocious stare. This was not her style. She could explode at any time, and the current surrender was only temporary. How could she be obedient to him all the time?
"Scum Jim, since we have decided to get married, shouldn't we make clear the rights and responsibilities as a couple in the future?"
"What rights and obligation do you want?" Jim asked slowly.
"Democratic and equal. From now on, you can't decide everything at home. I have to have a voice and decision. We have to discuss it together," said Eva.
Jim sneered, "With a brain and intelligence of a trilobite, what can you decide?"
Eva was speechless. "I'm so stupid. Why do you still marry me? Shouldn't the hostess of your Jing family be as wise and smart as your mother, Mrs. Kerry? You'd better change to another wife. Don't look for me."
"It's good to be stupid, and it's also cute to be stupid." Jim smiled, "How about this? From now on, you'll be in charge of buying things and holding parties at home, and I'll be in charge of all the important things."
