NovelEnglishThe atmosphere froze immediately.
Belle frowned slightly, and Brayden frowned as well.
Seeing their expression, Elizabeth’s smile faded, but she still maintained the basic courtesy and
said, “We pay attention to customs.There should be betrothal gifts, cars, and houses.’
“Of course, Olivia has been married once, so we wouldn’t be that picky.Let’s just do it as usual.We
don’t ask for a large number of betrothal gifts, just two hundred thousand dollars.As for other
gifts…”
Elizabeth paused, and she glanced at the two and showed her palm.
“Five hundred thousand dollars, not very much.’ For poor people, a few hundred thousand was
really a large sum.
But for the rich, a few hundred thousand was nothing at all.
Just like Everett.
So, for the two of them in front of her, she thought the seven hundred thousand was not much.

Brayden’’s face darkened.
Belle was also unhappy.
It was like a deal to sell her daughter as Elizabeth said.
Elizabeth continued, “We are just an ordinary family.Olivia still has a sister studying abroad, so we
don’t have much marriage dowry.If you can’t afford the house and the car, it would still be okay.As
long as you two are happy”
It seemed that she was really sensible and considerate.
Brayden curled his lips and looked at Elizabeth with a cold smile.
“Auntie, I’ll marry her no matter what you said”
His voice was cold and forceful, and his eyes were sharp.
The living room was quiet.
Olivia looked at Brayden, confused.
She didn’t expect him to say that, not to mention what did he mean.
Belle didn’t understand either.
Elizabeth was even more confused.
Of course, she didn’t need to understand.
She widened her eyes and said angrily, “What did you say? No matter what I said? Who are you?
When is it your turn to decide my daughter’s marriage?”
“Let me tell you, my daughter’s marriage should in regard to her parents’ orders! If I don’t agree,
Olivia can’t marry you!”
“Then please give me back the five million that Olivia borrowed from me.”
“Five million? When did Olivia borrow…”
Elizabeth stopped, covered her mouth, and pointed at Brayden.
“You…”
Then she looked at Olivia, her eyes filled with shock and disbelief.
After Brayden said that, Olivia understood what he meant and nodded.

Brayden said, “Olivia can’t afford it.And I’m not in good health.No one else wants to marry me, so I’ll
marry her, and I take it as buying her.’
“It doesn’t matter to me if you don’t agree.You give me back the five million, then I won’t marry
Olivia.’
Elizabeth said quickly, “No! No! She will marry you!”
“This is what Olivia owes you.She should do that!”
She laughed awkwardly and stared at Olivia.
“Olivia, why didn’t you say it earlier? If you had said it earlier, I wouldn’t have said anything about
the betrothal gifts.I’m so embarrassed now!”
After that, she looked at Belle and Brayden and smiled apologetically, “Ms.Weston my son, I’m
really sorry!”
Belle did not say anything, but she showed a more distant expression.
By now, she had known what kind of a person Elizabeth is.
It was just…
She looked at Olivia, her heart aching.
Why didn’t she show any trace of sadness?
