“What you said to them?” Anna\u2019s mother\u2019s soft tone became harsh in a moment. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Anna even refused to take the bride price? <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
How can she have such a stupid daughter? <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
The Taylor family has so much wealth. She should have asked for a lot of money. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Anna didn\u2019t listen more to her mother and hung up directly. She knew that if she didn\u2019t hang up, she will be sadder to hear such things from her mother. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Anna\u2019s mother wanted to talk more to Anna to convince her. But before she could say anything, Anna hung up the phone. She was so angry that she pointed to the mobile phone and said to Anna\u2019s aunt, “Look at her, how one would feel to have such a daughter? She is not at all obedient.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Anna\u2019s mother had thought that Anna will take so much money and gifts from the Taylor family, but that stupid girl spoiled everything. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Anna\u2019s wanted to take a big villa from the Taylor family. If she could get a big villa from Taylor\u2019s family then she and Aiden Stark will go there to live, then there will be more chances to find a good daughter in law for their family. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
This wasn\u2019t the only plan for Anna\u2019s mother to have a big Villa. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Anna\u2019s mother has decided to take a large amount of money in the bride price. She can use that money to pay Aiden Stark\u2019s tuition fees in these years and can save the rest of it. But Anna has messed up everything, Anna never thought about her brother at all. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
That stupid girl had messed up her plan. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
The aunt advised, “I don\u2019t think so. Anna is also thinking about you. If they give you a bride price, it means you also have to prepare for Anna\u2019s dowry. Now your two children are in universities. From where do you get the money for Anna\u2019s dowry? I think you should forget it.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Forget it?” Anna\u2019s mother said angrily, “How can we forget it? She is not your daughter, of course, you\u2019re not worried.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Anna\u2019s mother had already thought about it. The Taylor family will give her the bride price. She will buy something for Anna from that and can save the rest. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Therefore, the bride price was a must. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Anna\u2019s mother didn\u2019t want to waste time by talking nonsense with Anna\u2019s aunt here. She went out directly to meet Daniel Taylor. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Daniel Taylor was in his office. When Anna called him, they were having a meeting. Jack Smith answered Anna\u2019s call and sent her the address of the company and Anna came there directly. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
The company was very big. When Anna entered, she looked all around but didn\u2019t know where to go. She thought she would lose this way. She went to the front desk and said, “Hello, I\u2019m here to meet Jack Smith.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
The receptionist at the front desk looked at Anna. Many people came to meet Jack Smith and most of them were dressed up in formal clothes. But, Anna was wearing ordinary clothes. At one glance, she looked like a poor student. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
The assistant at the front desk frowned and said, “Do you want to meet Jack Smith? Do you have an appointment? ” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“I called him.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Name,” the receptionist asked. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Anna told her name, the receptionist looked it up but didn\u2019t find her name. She immediately felt that Anna was a liar and spoke to Anna rudely, “There is no appointment with this name.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Just tell me where his office is.” Anna thought she can go by herself. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
After listening to her words, the receptionist couldn\u2019t help laughing sarcastically. “You want to meet Mr. Jack Smith. I see women like you every day. He\u2019s not the one you can meet!” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
It was annoying to deal with these women who want to meet Mr. Jack Smith! <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Anna took out her mobile phone and was going to call Jack Smith. But Jack Smith has already come down, “Anna.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
He saw Anna and came over. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“How do you know I\u2019m here?” Anna looked at Jack Smith and thought that he came at the exact time. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
He shouldn\u2019t be busy at this time? <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Jack Smith said, “I\u2019m afraid that you will be lost. So I came down to receive you personally.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
What\u2019s more, Anna is Mr. Taylor\u2019s wife, how can he leave her to others? <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
It was his duty to pick and drop Anna, and Mr. Taylor gave him this responsibility. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Anna looked at the receptionist. She looked stunned. The receptionist probably didn\u2019t expect that Jack Smith would come here personally to receive this little girl. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
