Chapter 26 Unexpected deal
Melody felt that she had just had a dream. She seemed to have heard something but she wasn't sure about it.
The content seemed to be that Nancy said resolutely that she agreed to marry Mond and she also promised that she would not leave him.
"Miss Nancy, I... Did I get it wrong? Are you really not going to leave?"
At this moment, Melody was astonished and happy, but she was not sure about it.
Nancy only simply nodded and said, "yes, that's my answer, Melody. I won't leave. I'll marry him!"
Nancy had to admire the wisdom of herself. After making this decision, she was very happy. The tangles and unwillingness before seemed to have vanished. "Melody, I'm so hungry. Well, I want to drink plum juice."
When she heard these words, Melody finally came to realize her decision and went downstairs with her arm in arm.
The atmosphere downstairs seemed a little depressed.
There was silence...
Mond had been sitting in his wheelchair, frowning, but his eyes were fixed on the cup on the tea table. His cup that had been used by Nancy aroused warmth in his eyes.
The mistress didn't say anything, so Charlie and Ron didn't say anything more. After all, they had been with him for so many years.
Without even guessing, they knew that the fourth young master was thinking of Nancy.
Charlie was actually quite confident in his wife's persuasion skill. Therefore, he was sure that Nancy would probably stay.
As the saying went, "one cannot afford a single mishap." As he knew that it was difficult to persuade a young girl to do so, he kept fixing his eyes on the stairway and dared not to slacken off. After a while, they finally saw the figures of Nancy and Melody.
"Charlie, it's almost time for lunch. Why haven't you prepared? This time, it's time to show Miss Nancy your special chef's cooking skills."
At the moment, everyone downstairs was not quiet anymore.
Looking at the bright smile on Melody's face, Charlie understood the result of her persuasion. Then he started to prepare the lunch. He was in an orderly way, looking like a chef. He soon finished it. There was a little awkwardness at the table, all closely related to the little episode just now.
When Ron saw that lunch was ready, he stood up and walked towards Mond in the wheelchair. When he was about to push Mond in the wheelchair, he was stopped by a sweet voice.
"Well, let me do it."
Since she went downstairs, Nancy had been sitting on the sofa a distance away from Mond. She looked out of the window as if she was admiring the scenery, but in fact, she was afraid of facing his deep falcon eyes. She didn't know how she felt about him, but he was very handsome, which made her a bit familiar.
He was mysterious and he would attract people to get close to him, to know him, and to find out his mystery. Even she could not escape from the attraction from him.
But at the moment when Ron came over and pushed Mond's wheelchair, she moved her body subconsciously. She also made it successfully. She carefully pushed Mond, the man who was going to be her husband. Mond was surprised to see it. He had thought that when Nancy went downstairs, she would be impatient to tell him her unwillingness and then go home immediately regardless of any cost to find her childhood playmate. It turned out that he was wrong, and he was really wrong.
Mond didn't even think that what had been waiting fot him is Nancy's taking him out for lunch, which made him excited and anxious!
At the table, the five people kept silent, each with their own thoughts in their minds.
During the meal, Nancy was strangely quiet. She was willful and energetic before, but now her bustle was nowhere to be found thanks to her early lady education.
As for others, Melody had been greeting Nancy and kept putting food on her plate, which made her a little embarrassed.
Mond had been observing Nancy. He found that she seemed a little restrained, so he replied, "we're family. You can eat whatever you like." His voice was as cold as usual. With a polite smile on her face, Nancy nodded as soon as possible without doubt.
After lunch, only Mond Lu and Nancy were left in the hall.
As for the other three, of course, they were sensible and went away. They knew well about Mond's thoughts, and naturally, they would not stay there and find a reason to leave.
Mond was quite satisfied with what they did and was considering whether to raise their salary and give them rest time for a holiday?
The girl was holding the plum juice tightly in her hand. It seemed that the bottle was deformed because of her strength. The girl drank a little from time to time. It was obvious that she didn't have an intention of drinking it!
Looking at the plum juice in her hand, Nancy wished badly that she could find a hole in the ground and hide herself. It was better than what she was now. Forget it, she'd better make it clear to the man in front of her, in case of any following trouble.
"Mond, I take back what I have said to you, and you should forgot. I've decided to marry you, but I have my requirements. Do you understand?"
This might be the first time in eighteen years that she had said something so earnest. To be honest, she couldn't believe it either. After all, she was talking to a 26-year-old man? "Yes, I understand."
Said Mond flatly, but with irresistible authority.
Mond was surprised. Of course, he understood what Nancy meant. The corners of his mouth slightly raised. As expected, Mond had a good eye on people, including women.
After calming down, Nancy said righteously, "my first requirement is that you can't force me to do anything. Although we are husband and wife in the future, we can only be named husband and wife? It's impossible. Second, after we get married, we will not interfere with each other, especially our private life. Third, it's also a very important point. Both of us know the meaning of the marriage. So when we reach the goal, it's time we get divorced and we have nothing to do with each other from then on.
"Mr. Mond, I am wondering if you have any objection to these three conditions. If you do, there is no need for us to get married. Please put forward to break off the engagement, can you?"
Listening carefully to the wonderful speech of this little woman, Mond had a plan in his heart. In fact, he had already guessed these three requirements. Likewise, he could fully understand them. But he was a businessman and should not forget his identity.
The most important thing for a businessman was the huge benefits brought by this exchange, and his marriage with Nancy was actually a deal. If he couldn't get benefits from the exchange, how could he agree?
He wanted to make fun of the little woman, especially when she was angry. So he pretended to think about it for a long time without saying anything.000000☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
