In the next few days, Jim was dealing with Carlito and asked about Sam’s family background. As the more news he got, he had already eliminated Carlito, who was eager to cling to, and Carlito couldn’t get along with Sam at all. In contrast, Sam, as the director of the five-star Kimberly Hotel, can be said to be the highest decision maker, and the owner of a small factory is no longer worthy of it.
“Jim, don’t make your own claim about Mr. Carlito. Just ask your daughter’s opinion first.” Rose tried to persuade her. If her daughter knew about it, the father and daughter would definitely quarrel again.
“What do you know, marriage matters should be listened to parents, we are for her good, find a good husband for her.” Jim held the head of the family and said angrily.
“The daughter will not agree.” Rose’s understanding of her daughter is absolutely impossible to let her marriage be at the mercy of her father.
“Huh, it’s a foregone conclusion, I can’t help her.” Jim sneered, his most irritating daughter against him all day long.
“Don’t treat your daughter like this, don’t you really care that she will be like you for the rest of your life?”
“It’s her blessing to marry a good husband for her. She thanked me and it was too late. Besides, I didn’t have to let her marry Mr. Carlito. I thought about her very much.” Jim touched his chin and continued: ” If my daughter has a boyfriend, she should first take it home to meet her parents. She kept us in the dark, didn’t she make me ashamed of Mr. Carlito, he was looking forward to meeting my daughter.”
“Daughter has a boyfriend? How do you know?” Rose was puzzled, she was really worried about what her husband would do with her daughter behind her back.
“Why don’t I know? Isn’t it the man who sent her back that day? She has lived in someone’s house for more than a week. You don’t need to think about the relationship between the two.”
He believed that his daughter and Sam had lived together a long time ago. During this time, he not only inquired about the news, but also went to the restaurant several times. They all ran into his daughter and Sam in and out together. He didn’t believe that the two were just ordinary friends.
“But my daughter said it was just a friend…”
“Don’t worry about this. Since my daughter and Sam have this relationship, I want to see how much sincerity a big hotel director can show. If he dares to put on airs, I will marry my daughter to Mr. Carlito, ha Haha.” Jim plans to have a showdown with Sam recently.
“No!” Rose was very nervous when he heard it. The husband was selling his daughter by doing this.
“You better give me peace.” He warned with a gloomy face.
“You, you are joking about your daughter’s life, I won’t agree!” She was so angry that she cried. In the past, he beat her and scolded her, she could bear it, but she would not give in about her daughter.
“Daughter will marry sooner or later. Of course, we must first agree on the bride price.” Jim said confidently.
Of course he had to make a fortune when she was married, and his daughter was always against him.
Seeing her husband about to go out, Rose hurriedly grabbed his arm tightly. “Where are you going?”
“Let go! I’m going to find Sam and have a good talk with him.” Jim pushed her back, pulled his arm back, and strode away.
Rose looked upright and hurriedly took out her cell phone and called her daughter.
During the meeting, Susan turned her mobile phone to vibrate, so she missed her mother’s call.
In the Kimberly Hotel restaurant, Sam asked the waiter to make some hot tea and waited peacefully.
He received an unexpected invitation today.
He didn’t expect Jim to meet him directly, but he was curious about what this person would say to him.
There was a knock on the door, and Sam deliberately arranged for the female employee in charge of reception to lead Jim into the box and said, “Director, this guest is looking for you.”
“Thank you, come in.”
After the female employee left, Sam spoke to Jim and said, “Mr. Jim, please sit down.”
“I didn’t interrupt your work, did I? But I had to come to you directly…” Jim looked at him, and stopped talking on purpose.
Sam sneered secretly. This man actually wanted to act in front of him. When he thought of hearing the neighbors talk about Jim’s various crimes before, he was upset and wanted to do something for Susan. This time, Jim came here by himself, so you can’t blame it. Him.
“Mr. Jim, if you have anything to say, as long as I can help, I will try my best.”
“Oh… I think your relationship with Susan is pretty good, but recently there was a factory owner who admired Susan very much. He wanted to arrange a blind date. I just came to talk to you if you are dating Susan. Of course I don’t want to. Interfering with you and Susan is just your daughter’s marriage, and I am also very worried.” Jim said as he watched Sam’s expression change.
“Mr. Jim is right. Susan and I are good friends. If Mr. Jim wants to, tell me about the factory owner.” Sam echoed his words, and of course he had to inquire about his rivals.
Jim was satisfied with his reaction, and after deliberately hesitating, he said, “Speaking of Mr. Carlito, he is also a great man. He started a factory from scratch and managed very well, but he worked so hard when he was young until now. He just considered getting married. After he didn’t know where to meet Susan, he recognized her…”
Sam raised his brows and smiled, “Oh? Sounds like an elderly successful person.”
“Mr. Carlito is older than Susan. I remember him in his forties.”
Sam was so angry that he almost squirted out a sip of tea, more than ten years older! “From this point of view, Mr. Jim also thinks I have a higher chance of winning, right?”
“Of course, you are similar in age, so you must have more topics to talk about, and you are young and promising, and you are a restaurant director. You will definitely have a bright future in the future. But then again, although the boss is a little older, he has a stable personality. If Susan can live with him… I think life will be very good too. The most important thing for a woman is to marry a good husband in order to have a stable life, right?” Jim said implicitly. He hasn’t mastered the showdown with Sam. Timing, but he also hinted clearly enough.
“I think he must offer you a very attractive offer, right?”
“What do you mean, I kindly come to meet you…”
Sam looked at the table below and said, “Mr. Jim, just say it.” The meaning is obvious. He is very busy.
Jim looked at him and said bluntly, “Okay! Actually, it’s easy to say, Mr. Carlito… Well, it’s the factory owner. He gave three million dollars, a large store in the shopping street, and a home to do it. The offer for me and her mother to provide for the elderly. I really can’t refuse such a condition. I only have one daughter. Of course I hope she will be married well. After all, our two elders still count on her to take care of…” Jim automatically exaggerated Carlito’s offer. In other words, I just want to get more benefits from Sam.
Sam sneered. That’s how Jim asked him to meet him. As a neighbor said, he sold his daughter as a merchandise as a father. He especially came to tell him that he would lose Susan if he didn’t follow suit. It’s a good calculation, the higher price gets the daughter, right? If he hadn’t seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn’t really think of having such a father. He could imagine that Susan had lived in such a nightmare since he was a child, and her defensiveness and distrust of men must have been caused by Jim.
“What Mr. Jim said is that it is normal to take care of father-in-law and mother-in-law. But please give me some time. I have to discuss with the elders in the family. Marriage is a big deal, and I am also worried that Susan has not yet agreed. I will talk to you privately. Is it useful? If she left…”
Sam resorted to procrastination tactics, and he had to think about how to help Susan.
“Don’t worry, we can make the decision as parents for marriage, but I can only give you a week, and Mr. Carlito is still waiting for me to reply to him…” Jim couldn’t hide his triumphant expression of joy.
“Well, I must be as soon as possible. Mr. Jim can reject him directly. No matter how generous his offer is, it is definitely not as good as my family’s financial resources. I will definitely satisfy u.” Sam deliberately uses riches.
Sure enough, Jim listened to him for sure, and he mentioned his background secretly. He believed that maybe not only Sam is the director of the hotel, but his family may also be major shareholders. In short, he must be rich. Thinking of having such a son-in-law in the future, he He couldn’t help but smile, Mr. Carlito had been left behind by him a long time ago, “Okay, then I’ll wait for your good news.” After speaking, he left with satisfaction.
After Sam returned to the office, he immediately contacted the detective. He wanted to investigate this person to draw up a plan, but he was hesitant to explain to Susan. Because of her personality, he probably didn’t want outsiders to interfere.
Because he offered a generous reward, he got a reply from the detective the next day. Looking at the information, he was angry, but felt sorry for Susan. At the same time, he made a decision to solve Susan’s father, even if she would complain about his nosy afterwards.
The next day, in the same place, this time Sam led the people in.
“Please sit down, Ms. Rose.” He politely opened the seat for Rose and let her sit down.
He contacted Rose, invited to meet him, and went to pick her up by himself.
“Mr. Sam…” Rose was a little wondering what he was asking for her, but thinking that it must be related to her daughter, she agreed.
“Ms. Rose just call me Sam, please have tea.” Sam smiled and poured a cup of tea for her.
“Thank you. Sam, you…”
“Ms. Rose, the reason why you are specially invited over today is because there is something to discuss with you. Actually, Mr. Jim came to me two days ago…”
He quickly decided to deal with Jim’s plan. He was afraid that Susan would refuse, so he didn’t plan to tell her in advance, but he had to let Rose understand the cause and effect.
“What?” She looked surprised, “What did he do with you?”
Sam expressed Jim’s purpose in a serious expression, and then briefly explained his plan.
Rose is heartbroken, and her husband went so far as to ask his daughter’s friend to negotiate the price, just to sell his daughter!
“Sorry for causing you trouble… and thank you for not telling Susan.” She said with tears in her tears.
Although Sam didn’t say anything, the daughter knew afterwards that the relationship between their father and daughter would definitely not be able to continue.
“Ms. Rose, I hope you don’t blame me for making your own claim. For Susan, I can’t watch that person continue to do this. Only by letting him leave you, there is no way to use you and Susan to satisfy his greed, and it can be completely resolved. “Sam’s attitude is very sincere. After all, he must ask Rose for permission first. He knows that Susan cares about her mother.
“I’m sorry for Susan. I couldn’t give her a good home since she was a child. She has always worked hard… I understand that I am useless, I am too weak and soft-hearted… Now, the home is no longer a real Home…” Rose tremblingly said, her husband would be like this, and she would also have to take half the responsibility. It was the fault she had tolerated repeatedly.
“Ms. Rose, don’t blame yourself. Your grievances are all for Susan. She understands that she always cares about you. Don’t let her hear you say this. I think Susan, as long as you have a good life, She’s happy.” Sam handed a piece of tissue to wipe her tears.
He thought, if it wasn’t for the difficulties, Rose would certainly not want Susan to be hurt at all.
After a while, Rose’s emotions finally calmed down. She firmly said: “Okay, Sam, just do as you said. I have no opinion. You can imagine so much for Susan. I believe you will treat her well.”
“Ms. Rose can rest assured that no one will hurt Susan again. I will do my best to protect her.” Sam promised.
