Unexpected Marriage: She is the Sugar Mommy!-Chapter 348: Let’s Get Married

Seraphina Sinclair might not even know how wealthy she truly is. She usually acts so stingy that many people are unaware she’s actually much richer than Desmond Fairchild.

The world knows Cloudsea Group is a global powerhouse, ranking among the top of the Fortune Global 500, showcasing its immense magnitude.

But Seraphina Sinclair is genuinely wealthier than Desmond Fairchild.

This might be something even Seraphina herself isn’t really aware of.

"You’re right, the BOSS never intended to give up, but it’s obvious that someone is sabotaging us from behind the scenes, causing the company’s current predicament. We’ve both tried our best, but unfortunately, the situation hasn’t improved, which is why we’ve made this decision."

Irene Rowe sighed deeply, expressing her helplessness, never expecting things to deteriorate to this extent.

Austin White furrowed his brow and looked at her seriously, "Perhaps there’s still hope. Do you trust me?"

"I do trust you, but I estimate there’s little room for a turnaround now." Irene certainly believed in Austin White’s capabilities, but even with his intervention, it would probably be tough to trace the mastermind behind it.

"In the end, you still don’t believe me." Austin’s lips thinned, clearly displeased.

Seeing his adorable demeanor, Irene’s heart softened.

If Seraphina hadn’t instructed her that the plan mustn’t be disclosed to a third person, she would have wanted to tell Austin the truth.

At this point, she could only keep it a secret, unwilling to continue this topic with Austin, so she redirected the conversation elsewhere.

"Austin, there’s a question I must ask you."

Irene’s sudden serious expression made Austin’s whole body tense, and he answered earnestly, "What is it? Go ahead and ask."

"Since Kevin is almost declaring bankruptcy, I guess I’ll be unemployed soon. Once unemployed with no income, I..."

"I’ll take care of you!"

Before Irene could finish her words, Austin raised his hand like a schoolboy answering a question, afraid Irene didn’t hear clearly, he repeated, "Even if you lose your job and income, I can take care of you."

Among the words women love to hear the most, apart from "marry me" is "I’ll take care of you."

Irene felt that "I’ll take care of you" was even more touching than "marry me."

Always proactive and enthusiastic, when she heard Austin’s "I’ll take care of you," her cheeks flushed slightly, a warm feeling blossomed in her heart. She looked up affectionately at the big boy in front of her, "Are you really willing to take care of me?"

Austin nodded affirmatively, "Of course, as long as you’re willing, even if the company doesn’t go bankrupt, I’d still take care of you."

"In what capacity would you take care of me?" Irene asked with a smile.

"Of course, as your boyfriend." Austin spoke with an air of certainty, then lowered his voice, barely audible, "If you’re willing, it could also be as your husband."

Irene’s pupils slightly enlarged, and a smile spread across her face. She was evidently in a great mood.

Seeing Austin’s flushed face after speaking, she felt a bit playful, "Husband? Are you even at the marriageable age? I could get married at any time, but you haven’t even reached the age to get a marriage certificate."

"What’s so difficult about that? If I want to get married, I can do it any time." Austin’s words were filled with confidence, as if what Irene said was just a joke.

"Really?" Irene initially intended to tease Austin but ended up being baffled by his statement.

Austin looked at her seriously, holding her hands tightly. His eyes were filled with passion, "Irene, marry me, let me take care of you. As for getting married, you don’t have to worry, I just need to lift a finger to adjust the age, so just rest assured."

Irene had a blank expression, she had almost forgotten what her little boyfriend did for a living.

With Austin’s skills, altering the age on an ID card was too easy. If he wanted, not to mention his age, what couldn’t he change?

"I’m joking, don’t take it seriously, even if the company goes bankrupt, I can still take care of myself." Irene sighed softly, she wasn’t ready for marriage yet.

Austin was still young, and wanting to marry her might just be an impulsive decision. If she really went to get a marriage license with Austin, perhaps he would regret it not long after.

She truly had no confidence in this relationship and didn’t dare to entrust her future to a newly adult young man.

Upon hearing her answer, Austin was immediately a bit displeased, "Don’t you believe in me?"

"I don’t mean to not believe you. I just feel that two people together might get bored over time. You’re still young, and your feelings for me might just be a temporary passion. You might like me for one, two, or three years, but I can’t guarantee you’ll like me for ten years, eight years, or even longer."

Irene hadn’t failed to consider their relationship carefully, but when it came to marriage, she still felt it was too soon.

If she impulsively married Austin, it might ruin his life.

"I don’t care what you’re thinking, but I truly want to live with you. Whether it’s the past, the present, or the future, I want to spend it with you. I’m not joking, please believe me, okay?"

Austin nervously held Irene’s hand, afraid she wouldn’t believe him, " 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

Can you give me this chance, Irene?"

"But I’m not ready for marriage yet, how about we wait a bit?" Irene knew Austin could be stubborn, she didn’t dare reject him too directly, or he might overthink it.

"You really are unwilling to marry me, right? You think I’m not mature enough, too young, and lacking responsibility, right?" Austin’s face immediately fell. He knew Irene always saw him as a child.

Before and after their relationship, Irene never treated him like a real man, always looking at him with the eyes of a child.

Austin felt very unsatisfied inside, but he never vented it.

He knew perhaps it was indeed because he wasn’t mature enough, making Irene not feel secure enough, so she viewed him as a little boy.

But he truly wanted Irene to know that he was no longer a child, that he was a mature man capable of protecting her.

"I’ve never thought that way. If I really treated you as a child, would I even date you?" Irene realized she might have said something wrong and hurriedly tried to remedy it.

"In that case, let’s get married now." Austin’s eyes were resolute, his tone revealing a touch of determination.

Irene knew Austin wasn’t joking this time; he was serious.

Faced with Austin’s determined eyes, she didn’t know why, but Irene had an illusion, as if Austin really would spend the rest of his life with her.

Mysteriously compelled, she nodded and involuntarily responded, "Okay, let’s get married."

"Did you really agree?" Austin looked at Irene in disbelief, thinking she would keep refusing, and for a moment, he didn’t know how to react.
