Chapter 488:
Although he said that, I felt uneasy. These gifts were far too valuable. I couldn’t help but frown. Klein, noticing my expression, quickly asked, “What’s wrong? Isn’t it a happy thing to go back and see your mother? You look a bit unhappy.”
These gifts were specially prepared by Klein. If I refused them, it would only make things more awkward for him. I took a deep breath and said, “I’m not unhappy. My mother raised my sister and me on her own, and it was very hard. I haven’t repaid her for anything. I’ve made a mess of my own life. Thankfully, everything has passed.”
“It doesn’t matter. Your mother is my mother too. In the future, let’s treat her well together,” Klein said, patting my hand.
“Yes,” I said, smiling without objection.
At that moment, Klein suddenly said, “Does this mean that you’ve already agreed to my proposal?””A proposal?”
I looked at him in surprise. Klein gave me a solemn look, then laughed.
“Marry me? The wedding ceremony will be held after Christmas?”
I wasn’t prepared at all. Marriage? We had only been in a relationship for half a month. I laughed and said, “Klein, won’t it be too hasty?”
“Don’t worry. Leave everything to me. All you need to do is try on your wedding dress and become a beautiful bride. Then, I’ll take you and Lucky on a honeymoon. After that, you’ll become my wife. I really desire that wonderful life,” Klein said, laughing.
I frowned, unsure of what to say.
At that moment, Klein’s voice became more considerate.
“Don’t worry. If you feel that it’s too hasty, I won’t force you. How about we wait a little longer?”
His words made me relax a little.
“I’m indeed not ready yet. Why don’t we wait for a few more months?”
“Fine. I’ll listen to you,” Klein said, smiling.
“Okay.”
I smiled and nodded. It was almost Chinese New Year, and there were cars everywhere on the street. The traffic was a little congested. As I glanced out the window, I felt uneasy. Was I really going to marry Klein? Would I spend the rest of my life with him?
Thinking about this, I couldn’t help but feel a little panicked. I knew it wasn’t premarital jitters, since this wasn’t the first time I had been married. But what was going on with me? Before confirming my relationship with Klein, I had already thought about many things. Would I be able to continue with him, giving him the complete family he wanted, or maybe even have a child with him in the future?
Just as I was lost in my thoughts, Klein slowly parked the car in front of my mother’s house.
“We’re here,” Klein said.
Only then did I come to my senses. I hurriedly got out of the car, grabbed the bags from the back seat, and walked into the corridor side by side with Klein.
Thump, thump!
