Mrs. Caron turned to look at Kiera and asked, “What do you mean by apathy?”
“Julian’s illness is apathy. He will only respond to one woman in his life. If he can’t meet a woman who can make
him respond, he will be an eunuch. If he can’t be cured, he can be said to be resigned to his fate.”
Mrs. Caron: “I have lived for decades, and this is the first time I have heard of this disease.
So, if you marry Julian, you don’t have to worry about him changing his heart towards you, and you don’t have to
worry about other women crawling into his bed and stealing him from you.”
Kiera replied, “Theoretically, that’s the case. Julian also said that he has no reaction at all when facing other
women. After his parents learned about his situation, they arranged blind dates for him every day. When he didn’t

but to no avail.”
Kiera told her mother everything she knew.
Kiera added, “His parents are worried about his marriage. They are so worried that if he looks at a girl one more
time, his parents will think that he is reacting to that girl.”
Mrs. Caron was surprised. She asked, “How did you know that he had a different reaction to you? What did you two
do?”
After asking, Mrs. Caron said to her daughter seriously: “Daughter, no matter whether Julian is sincere or fake to
you, you should not surrender yourself until the wedding day. Girls should be more pure and self-respecting.”
“My mother often reads some short essays or short videos. Some girls get pregnant before they get married. As a
result, their husbands’ families despise them, and the promised bride price is either lowered or cancelled. You won’t
be happy if you marry someone like this. People look down upon you.
You shouldn’t go too far with Julian because, although I’m not saying I’m old-fashioned and incapable of keeping up
with your young people’s trends, as a mother, I don’t want to see my daughter detested by the family of her future
husband. Even if you are engaged, you still have to keep it. When you get the marriage certificate and become a
legal couple, even if you haven’t held the wedding yet, mom won’t care about you anymore.”
Mrs. Caron was worried that her daughter was young and impulsive and had no relationship experience. Although
Julian had not had a girlfriend in the past, he was older and had been in the business world for more than ten years.
He had seen and understood more things than Kiera.
She was concerned that Julian would persuade her daughter to live with him without getting married and become

Even if her daughter is the only woman who can make Julian’s heart beat, on the surface, the Bucham family’s
parents won’t say anything. Who knows how they will view their daughter in their hearts?
Even if the Bucham family’s parents would not look down on their daughter, Mrs. Caron thought it would be better
to get married and stay together.
It doesn’t matter if she is conservative-minded; this is how she raised her daughter.
People of their generation rarely get pregnant out of wedlock.
Kiera whispered, “Mom, how could something like that happen to Julian and me? I wouldn’t do it without a marriage
certificate. Julian won’t coax me. The men around him know how to respect women and respect any decision of the
one they love. He must be that kind of person too.”
