The True Heiress is the Reserved Fiancé's Exclusive Memory-Chapter 725 - 744: Have a Few More (7)
"Everyone in your family seems quite capable. Just look at your two sisters-in-law. One is a foreign correspondent fluent in several languages, and the other is a translator, so she must know even more languages..."
"Yeah," Koa Jackson pondered, "my second cousin-in-law knows twelve languages."
"Stop it, I don’t want to hear anymore," Mia Ginger said dejectedly.
"I told you, she’s a translator."
"That’s still too much," Mia murmured.
Koa Jackson chuckled softly, amused by her reaction.
Mia pressed her lips together, thinking, then suddenly asked, "Professor Jackson, how many languages can you speak?"
"Does just speaking count?" Koa asked in return.
"Be fluent, at least enough to communicate."
"Hmm." After a brief thought, Koa whispered, "Not that many, around four."
Mia: "..."
A doctor, why does he need to know so many languages?
Not willing to give up, she asked, "What about the ones you know a little bit of?"
"Just over ten, I guess," Koa replied calmly. 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂
Mia was speechless, muttering, "Didn’t you just say your second cousin-in-law knows twelve languages?"
"She can communicate in twelve languages without barriers."
Mia opened her mouth, completely at a loss for words. Don’t these people understand that one should specialize?
Learning so much, can you even use it?!
She really did not want to admit she was envious and bitter.
Koa seemed to understand her thoughts and comforted her, "You don’t need to feel pressured. It depends on the individual. These things can’t be rushed. My second cousin-in-law is exceptionally talented at learning and is an extreme perfectionist, quite demanding, not as great as you think."
"Is she pretty?" Suddenly, Mia was intensely curious about this second cousin-in-law she had never met.
Koa thought for a moment, "Hmm, not as pretty as you."
Not as pretty as her?
Mia suddenly felt that Dr. Jackson was quite good with words.
Haha.
Especially such straightforward compliments from his mouth were enough to make her swell with happiness.
Hearing her laugh, Koa chuckled on the phone too, gently saying, "Sleep early, let’s stop here for now, I still have something to do."
"Goodnight, hubby," Mia’s words were as sweet as honey.
"Goodnight."
Koa hung up the phone and returned to the living room.
Eddie Jackson and his wife, Shen Qiao, were returning tomorrow, while Benny Jackson and Maya Scott were already home.
Eddie Jackson was twelve years older than Koa, now forty, flying everywhere year-round due to his job. He was considered the most elegant and charming man in the Jackson family, at least on the surface, always carrying a smile on his lips, with refined frameless glasses on his nose, dressed in a perfectly tailored high-end custom suit, sitting gracefully on the couch. Only four words could describe him: the perfect man.
His match, Maya Scott beside him, could only be described in the same four words: the perfect woman.
In the April weather, she had already showered after returning, not in formal wear, wearing a gray long dress underneath and a slightly darker long trench coat over it. Her wavy long hair was perfectly parted in the middle, draping over her shoulders, with the large button on her coat neatly fastened.
She was four years younger than Benny, now thirty-six, sitting next to him with her long legs elegantly together, slightly tilted at an angle, hands crossed on her lap, leaning slightly to listen to the elder speak, simply a textbook-like standard posture, so was her smile.
