Substitute Marriage: Reborn As The Top Big-Shot-Chapter 2000 - 564: Agreed on a wedding date_4

Samuel Thompson said, "There are even people abroad who have twelve kids in one go!"

Twelve in one go?

Mary Perryne couldn’t bother responding to Samuel Thompson anymore, turning her head to Mandel Thompson, "Have you spoken to Isla’s dad about when our parents could meet?"

Mandel Thompson said, "It mainly depends on when you and dad are available."

Mary Perryne smiled, "Then we’re definitely available anytime!"

After all, it’s our son’s lifelong matter, even if we don’t have time, we need to make some time.

As she spoke, Mary Perryne added, "You tell Isla quickly, just say we are available anytime, if it’s convenient for them, next Saturday would be a good day."

No day like today.

Isla Astir’s character and capability go without question, and Mandel Thompson likes her so much, it’s not good to delay some matters too long, better to settle them sooner and fulfill one of her wishes.

Samuel Thompson was just about to speak when Mary Perryne, as if she knew what he was going to say, added, "Once we get your older brother’s matter settled, we’ll take care of your and Flora’s situation. What about you two brothers, both of you have been dragging your feet not talking about love, did you make a pact or something?"

If both sons fall in love at the same time, the focus should be on the elder son’s matters first.

Seniority matters.

As she spoke, Mary Perryne continued, "Borden, remember to explain this to Flora."

Samuel Thompson nodded, "Okay. Mom, I was actually joking just now, Flora is only a junior in college, and her parents don’t want her to marry so early."

Mary Perryne smiled, "No rush to get married, you can get engaged first! You can’t keep delaying like this."

Hearing this, Viola Thompson nodded in agreement, "I think mom is right. Brandon, an engagement is a commitment to a girl."

"But would Flora like it?" Samuel Thompson felt awkward.

Viola Thompson smiled, "Girls are all shy, do you really expect Flora to bring it up first? Mom is right, engagement is a commitment to both parties."

Samuel Thompson felt puzzled, "Really?"

He thought by not mentioning engagement he was respecting Flora, as all girls enjoy the single life.

Turns out, there’s such a big difference in men and women’s thinking.

Mary Perryne continued, "Viola is definitely telling the truth, how could your little sister harm you?"

Samuel Thompson nodded, "Alright, I know. I’ll talk to Flora about this tonight." 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂

The Summer family.

Mrs. Summer looked at Jean Beckman, "Jean, did you hear? Mandel Thompson went to Isla Astir’s house yesterday. Soon their parents are going to meet!"

Once both parents have met, this matter won’t be far from being finalized.

Mrs. Summer has been considering whether or not to have a second child lately.

If her daughter could come around and end up with Mandel Thompson, she wouldn’t have to consider those issues anymore.

Jean Beckman completely ignored the issue, "They haven’t even met yet, and it’s already the talk of the town. It’s not even certain it will work out!"

Clearly, the Thompson Family just wanted her to know about this.

She wouldn’t chase after Mandel Thompson!

Mrs. Summer put down her chopsticks, "Jean..."

Before she could finish her sentence, Jean impatiently said, "Can you stop? All you talk about is the Thompson Clan’s affairs every day, if you love meddling in their business so much, why don’t you become Mandel Thompson’s stepmother!"

Even though Mrs. Summer usually indulged her daughter, she couldn’t take it anymore and slammed the table, "Jean, do you realize what you are saying?"

Is this something a daughter should say?

Mrs. Summer was very angry!

"Are you going through menopause?" Jean, who had been spoiled since childhood, couldn’t tolerate her mother speaking to her like this, "I just said something casually, do you have to react like this, like a lunatic! I can’t stay in this house any longer!"

In Mrs. Summer’s state, where is the demeanor of a refined lady?

Jean was speechless!

Ever since she returned to the country, her parents hadn’t shown her a good face.

Her mother constantly mentioned Mandel Thompson in front of her.

Her father told her to expand and glorify the Summer family and not let him down.

"Then leave!" Mrs. Summer, furious, retorted and pointed to the door.

"Fine, I’ll leave! Just don’t come begging me to return!" Jean slammed the door as she left.

If Jean had a brother or any siblings, she wouldn’t dare to do this.

But now, she’s the only child of the family, and her parents would have to rely on her when they are old!
