"Shame! What a shame!" Seeing Skyler driving the car away, Luis stamped his feet with his facial muscles shaking.
Then he took a deep breath and looked at Iwan, saying, "Iwan Cliff, don't worry. We won't keep your car. I'll ask her mother to give it back to you later."
Iwan fell silent when hearing it. After a long while, he looked up at Luis and said, "You really don't want to approve of the relationship between Jayna and me?" When she heard Iwan's question, Jayna shivered and looked at her father with care.
Luis loudly snorted and said, "Iwan Cliff, now you're also a father, and you also have a daughter! Then my question is: If what happened to Jayna also happened to Emily in the future, what would you think then?"
Hearing it, Iwan fell silent, hung his head low, and sincerely said to Luis, "Sorry..."
At this moment, Jayna dropped to her knees in front of Luis and beseeched, "Dad, it's not Iwan's fault. At that time, he was seriously wound and unconscious, so he didn't know anything. And he has been a soldier in the External Regions these years. He really didn't know anything. Dad, Emily needs a father. I believe that Iwan can definitely take care of Emily and me in this life. Dad, if you want to scold anyone, scold me! I am an unqualified daughter. Sorry..."
"Grandpa, grandpa, don't blame Daddy and Mommy, okay? It's all my fault. I called Daddy, and Daddy came back. Grandpa, it's all my fault. Sorry, grandpa." At this time, Emily also came over, holding Luis's leg and apologizing to him in a great hurry.
The moment Emily held his leg, Luis shook violently, and his heart turned soft in an instant. He squatted down, picked Emily up, and said, "Emily, it's okay. Go play with your aunt. I won't blame your daddy and mommy. Go play."
Jacey also came over hurriedly. When she came to Luis, she said with very mixed feelings, "Dad, my brother-in-law is now back. Dad, previously in Southpool, he helped my sister, so he has now been expelled by the Military Headquarters! Dad, it's true. Please believe my brother-in-law! I promise you he can surely take care of my sister and Emily. I promise..."
Luis put Emily in Jacey's arms. Only when Emily and Jacey were already far away did he heave a deep sigh. He knew what kind of person his daughter was, and he also knew that Iwan really didn't know anything. And Jacey had just told him that Iwan had been expelled by the Military Headquarters because of this unauthorized return. After hearing it, he actually believed Iwan.
After a long while, Luis heaved one more deep sigh. Looking at Iwan, he said, "Iwan, even if you didn't know, Jayna's life was ruined because of you. Then I'm angry with you. Don't you think I should be angry?"
Iwan seriously nodded and said, "Mr. Brown, it's my fault. I promise you and I swear I'll take good care of Jayna and Emily in this life! Please give me some time, okay? I'll hold a wedding for Jayna on the 15th of next month. I'll never let her suffer any grievances anymore. Just give me less than a month, okay?"
After hearing it, Luis sighed noisily. The next moment, he fixed his eyes on Iwan and said, "Iwan Cliff! I know my daughter. You can't imagine how she has gone through the five years. You can lie to me, but if you lie to her, she will probably die. Know it? Understand, eh?"
When he heard it, Iwan shook violently. Then he said more seriously to Luis, "Mr. Brown, I won't. I wouldn't even if I had to die!"
"Fine, at this point, I don't have anything to say but one thing. Iwan Cliff, listen carefully. If you dare to bully Jayna, making her suffer even a bit, I will let you pay for it even if I go to hell!" Luis continued to speak to Iwan coldly and fiercely.
Iwan nodded hard. Looking at Jayna with quite mixed feelings, Luis deeply sighed and said, "Jayna, don't blame your mother. Your mother is just disappointed. It's not that your mother doesn't like Emily. You need to know something. There are a lot of toys in her bedroom. She told me that she picked some of them up somewhere and got the others from the shopping mall promotional events for free. But I know she bought them for Emily. The problem is that your mother is stubborn. These years others have been gossiping about her and looking down on her, so she feels strong animosity toward you, Emily, and Iwan. Alas, wait for it to go patiently."
"Dad, sorry... and please say sorry to my mom in my name when you get back. Now I know I was wrong," Jayna said to Luis in tears.
Luis left. Iwan wiped Jayna's tears off and said to her, "Jayna, don't worry. Please give me some time. I'll prove to you I can make all my promises to you come true. All of them! I will never let you down in this life."
Jayna nodded and looked at Iwan, saying, "Iwan, I had told you my choice last night. Since I've made my choice, I won't regret it. I believe that you'll be a good father and husband. I believe..."
"Yes, thank you, Jayna." There was some pain in Iwan's eyes.
Jayna shook her head and took a few deep breaths. When she had regained her calmness, she said to Iwan, "Sorry, the car you've just bought was driven away by my mother. I don't think she will ever come back."
Iwan said with a smile, "It's okay, Jayna. It's not a big deal. Today is the first day you go back to your company to work. Don't be late! A car can reduce your mother's anger, so it's worth it."Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
"Yes." Jayna bit her lips, glanced at Iwan apologetically, and then hailed a taxi, hurrying to the company.
After Jayna left, Jacey carried Emily to Iwan and said, "Iwan, don't be angry! My mother is like that. Her tongue is sharp, but her heart is soft. She's been bullied so much by the people of the Brown family these years. My sister was more excellent than Krista Brown, and my mother was very happy with it, but that matter of yours happened. Since then, my mother has been getting grumpier. Alas!"
Iwan smiled and said, "It's okay. Your mother drove the car away, but I'm very happy. At least, your mother will not get angry so frequently then. You go home and take a look. Persuade your dad for my sake. The car is your mother's. Regard it as my apology gift. Besides, please ask if your mother has any other wishes. Your sister accepted me last night, then I have to work out some ways to please your mother. But don't reveal my identity at present!"
"Yes, yes, don't worry. I'll take care of it," Jacey happily nodded and said.
After Jacey left, Iwan said to Emily, "Emily, your nanny has driven your mom's car away, then your mom has to go to work by bus. Let's go buy another one for your mom, okay?"
Emily didn't know how expensive a Benz was. She just knew her mother had to take the bus again, so she immediately nodded in excitement and said, "Yes, yes, go, Daddy, let's buy another one for Mommy. Then Nanny won't have to return the car to us."
Iwan kissed Emily's cheek with a smile, then they got in a taxi, going to the Benz 4S store where they had bought that Benz yesterday.
But their experience was different this time. When Iwan came in with Emily, the two saleswomen who had satirized Iwan yesterday rushed to him with glistening eyes and said to him in a highly flattering manner, "Mr.... Mr. Cliff, you came to buy a car again?"
"Ha, you are here to receive me? Apologies, I came here by taxi! It's a waste of time for you ladies to receive me, isn't it?" Iwan sneered.
As soon as Iwan finished speaking, the two saleswomen blushed. They knew Iwan was satirizing them, but they didn't care about it. Compared with making money, losing dignity was nothing. Therefore, they said in a more flattering tone, "Haha, Mr. Cliff, you must be joking. What kind of car do you want to buy today?"
"I'm not going to buy a car. I just passed by, and my daughter wanted to come in and play for a while. Is that okay?" Iwan answered coldly.
When the two saleswomen realized that Iwan only wanted to stay here for a while, a lot of their smiles disappeared. After all, he had just bought a new car for about 150,000 dollars yesterday, so how could he buy another one today? Since Iwan was not here to buy a car, the two saleswomen instantly lost interest.
"Okay, okay, fine. Then move around as you wish. We're busy. We'll leave you alone." The two saleswomen immediately became cold. After saying it, they simply left, even without a wish to pour a cup of water for Iwan.
"Ha..." Iwan smiled speechlessly, thinking, "They're snobbish to the extremes! But they're short- sighted!" At this moment, Tina, the beautiful salesgirl who had sold Iwan the car yesterday, came out from inside and happened to see Iwan. Instantly, she came over and smiled at Iwan, "Oh, you're here, Mr. Cliff! Why do you stand at the door? Come in! Come in and sit. What do you want to drink? Beverage or tea? I'll pour it for you."
"Water will do," Iwan said with a smile.
"What do you want to drink, little beauty?" Tina nodded and said to Emily.
"Miss, could you please give me some candy I ate yesterday? That is delicious. It's so sweet!" Emily said with big, cute blinking eyes.
"Yes, yes, of course! I'll bring you a lot, okay?" Tina smiled and nodded.
"Okay, okay, thank you, beautiful lady." Emily nodded happily.
After a while, Tina brought Iwan a cup of water and Emily some candy. When Iwan was drinking the water, she asked a little worriedly, "Mr. Cliff, what did you come here for today? There is something wrong with the car?"
Iwan put down his cup, stunned, but then said, "The car is fine. It's very good. I'm very satisfied!"
Tina heaved a long sigh of relief before she asked, "Oh, oh, then why did you come here today?"
Iwan said, "Uh, I just dropped in while passing by. What? I'm not welcome? Haha..."
Tina immediately shook her head and said, "Yes, you are! Mr. Cliff, it's our honor you came to our store! Now I'm not busy. Let me show you around and see other cars, okay? And I'll also kill time."
At this time, the two snobbish saleswomen gossiped, "The one is not to buy a car, but someone has a lot of free time!"
Hearing it, Tina trembled, but she still smiled at Iwan, "It's nothing. Let's go, Mr. Cliff. Anyway, I'm free."
"Okay, does your store still have stock for the car I bought yesterday?" Iwan nodded and said.
"Yes, yes, we have. What's the matter, Mr. Cliff?" Tina nodded and said.
Once again, Iwan took the Centurion Card he had used yesterday out of his pocket, handed it to Tina, and said, "My mother-in-law also likes the car I bought yesterday, and I've given it to her. Then
I need to buy another one for my wife. Still the Benz S-Class model. Go prepare the contract. I'll drive it away in a while."
"What? This... This... This..." As soon as Iwan finished speaking, the two snobbish saleswomen were stunned.
