Chapter 1401
Seeing that her son’s face turned cold, Natalie could only follow along helplessly, “Okay, I won’t
mention her. Anyway, once you receive your medical award, there are countless talented women in the
academic community abroad waiting for you. I just hope you won’t rush into mating. Finish your award
first and then make a good decision…”
Jayden impatiently grunted, “It’s my own business, and I will
make my own decisions. You guys shouldn’t interfere. Also,
Mom, when you were questioning Harper just now, it made her uncomfortable. I didn’t say anything to
respect you as my
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtmother, but when Harper comes out later, say something nice
to her, be polite.”
Natalie understood that her son still wanted to mate Harper. Even if she was reluctant, she could only
go along with her son’s wishes for now. Later, she would find a way to force them to break up. “Fine,
since you’re my pride and joy, I’ll listen to
you…”
Harper just wanted to find an excuse to take a breather. She spent some time washing her hands in the
sink and then came out. The restaurant was quite large, and the server led her around a few corners
before returning to the reserved table Jayden had booked.
After Harper came back, she thought Natalie would continue questioning her, but she didn’t expect
Natalie to ask nothing. Instead, she grabbed her hand and said with concern, “Good girl, you’ve
suffered in the first half of your life. In the second half, you won’t have to struggle for a living by
following Jayden. You will be happy for the rest of your life.”
Harper felt a bit uncomfortable and wanted to withdraw her hand, but when she saw Natalie’s caring
expression, she held back. “Auntie, even if I mate Jayden, I won’t neglect my career.”
She made it clear that she didn’t want to be a housewife, and Natalie not only didn’t oppose it, but also
supported her. “With your large entertainment venue and high annual income, that is all yours. I just
want to tell you that Jayden will always be
your support.”
Harper felt awkward and smiled, “You change your mind pretty quickly.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNatalie’s face stiffened for a moment, then she smiled brightly, “What do you mean by that?”
Harper spoke directly, “Just now, you asked so many
questions. I thought you were not satisfied with my
background and career. I didn’t expect that in the time it took to wash my hands, you agreed. Did you
say something to your
mom?”
The last sentence was directed at Jayden, who nodded with a
smile, “She asked you so many questions, some of which were
a bit excessive. I said a few words to her, sorry about that.
During the questioning, I didn’t interrupt because I was afraid of giving those two intellectuals another
reason to criticize me for being impolite and disrespectful to elders. That’s why I said
a few words afterwards.”
