Chapter 269 Do You Want to Marry Me
Chris sat beside Jane uncomfortably. Meanwhile, Jamie walked towards Sam and asked in a serious
tone, "Are you serious this time?"
"Yes, I most definitely am." Sam nodded. "Or else I would not have brought her home to meet you
both."
"If you are serious about this relationship, treat her well. Chris seems like a very good girl." Jamie
patted Sam on his shoulder, then added, "Remember to visit her family and talk about engagement. It's
about time you decide now."
"I know." Sam nodded in sync with his thoughts.
With a strong feeling that Chris was the right one for her son, Jane became more and more happy
about Chris, who sat across her. Though Chris was feeling uncomfortable about her fixed gaze. Finally
she asked Jane, "What is it that you wanted to discuss?"
Upon hearing her question, Jane came back to earth and with an embarrassed look asked Chris,
"Does Sam treat you well when you are with him?"
"Yes, he treats me quite well actually." Chris suddenly blushed pink, as she stole a glimpse of Sam,
who was sitting beside her, and smiled. "He is good to me. He is even willing to buy me everything I
want no matter how unreasonable I may be."
"My son actually has a low EQ." Jane signed. "Earlier I thought he was a gay. So now you can
understand my extreme happiness to see him bring you home."
Jane composed her thoughts for a second and then went on, "You should know that when you were
abroad, I liked you so much. I really think Sam and you make a perfect match. As you two are around
the age to get married, when do you think is the proper time to hold the wedding?"
Chris was baffled when she heard Jane said that. Although she wanted to be with Sam, they had not
discussed marriage just as yet. After all, they had just gotten together. How could she think in this
direction so soon?
"Aunt, I..." Chris silently deliberated as she didn't know how to respond to this question.
However, Jane didn't pay heed to her reaction. She smiled and said to them, "I guess you haven't
discussed about this, have you now?"
"Yes..." Chris said hesitantly. "Now we've just gotten together, we haven't thought so far into our future."
"You must consider this now." Jane said to her, "The point of being in a relationship is ultimately to get
married for companionship. It will not make any difference if you two get married sooner or later. When
your uncle and I were your age, we had already given birth to Sam."
Chris lowered her head, not knowing what to say.
"Chris, I'm not pressuring you into getting married." Jane signed, then added, "You should know that
Sam hasn't decided to settle down in any particular place. As you two now are in a relationship and
he's brought you home to see us, I think it's good to decide on marriage soon. This is also a
responsibility. What do you think?"
"Emmm..." Chris showed an expression of hesitation, sensing that Jane asked her, "Huh? Do you not
want to marry him?"
"No, that's not true..." Chris hurriedly waved her hand. Seeing Jane's smile, she thought she was being
duped by her. But then, in order to comfort Jane, she said in a unconvinced tone, "I'll follow your
arrangement, aunt...."
"Now that's a good girl." Jane was content with the answer. All she wanted was to stop Autumn from
thinking of her son. In her eyes, Autumn was a shameless woman who would still hook up with her son
even after getting married.
As long as Sam and Chris got married, how could Autumn still have the guts to seduce her son?
"That's it. I will visit your parents with Sam soon to discuss your engagement. This is the most
important thing. Do you two agree?" Jane held her hand with satisfaction, making Chris felt a little
embarrassed.
Jane wanted to treat Chris with a dinner this night. However, Chris made excuses to leave. Before
leaving, Jane held her hands tightly and said, "Don't forget what we spoke about. Go discuss it with
your parents. Then remember to call me."
"Don't worry, aunt. I will talk to them." Chris smiled reluctantly. She felt relieved as Sam drove away
from his home.
Sam peeked at her face and asked her curiously, "What is wrong? Are you feeling tired, sweetie?"
"Does it look like I am tired from my face?!" Chris couldn't bear it anymore. She poured out all about
her discomfort. "I've never felt your mother was so over zealous towards me. All of that really
overwhelmed me and made me uncomfortable."
Sam understood what happened with her and laughed happily. Then he thought of something. When
he dropped Chris to the door of Dream Garden, he asked her, "Chris, even though we haven't been in
a relationship for too long, we've known each other for quite a long time. I want to ask you a question:
Would you give me the pleasure of marrying me?"
Chris was stunned. After a long time, she returned to reality. "Are you proposing?"
"Emmm, no." Sam shook his head and explained, "I just want to ask for your permission. If you agree,
we can go ahead and arrange a dinner for our parents and decide the perfect time for our wedding."
Chris could not utter a word after she heard him speak about their "wedding". She could only laugh out,
while nodding her head. Even when she came back home, she was still dazed.
"Why you are laughing sitting by yourself on the sofa, Chris?" Autumn asked her. Autumn had made an
appointment with Charles. They decided to visit the Zhao family. Now it's not the time. When she went
downstairs, she noticed Chris was giggling like a teenager on the sofa. She softly patted Chris.
"Autumn." Chris smiled shyly and blushed as she turned to look at Autumn.
"Did you meet his parents?" Autumn asked her.
"Yeah, I just got back from their home." Chris nodded and said to Autumn, "His parent are really kind.
They even said..."
"Em? What did they say?" Autumn poured a glass of water for Chris and continued to ask her.
"They expect us to get married as soon as possible. Sister, don't you think it's too soon? I mean we just
got into a relationship." Chris looked at Autumn with confusion.
Autumn stood still for a second, for she didn't expect that Sam's parents would urge them get married
so soon. But within seconds she controlled her emotions and said to Chris, "That depends on you. You
know that I didn't even know your brother well before our marriage, so don't be afraid of getting married
too soon. Also, you have known Sam for such a long time. You two must understand each other quite
well enough to know what the right step is. We will not intervene, since it's upon on your decision."
"But..." Chris frowned. She didn't know why, but she was a little worried.
"Don't think too much, just be clear whether you see a future with him or not." Autumn patted Chris's Material © NôvelDrama.Org.
shoulder to comfort her. Right at this moment, Charles got back home, so she stood up to greet him.
