NOVPUBChapter 1186: Chapter 1186: The Starving Camel Is Still Bigger Than The Horse_1 Chapter 1186 -1186: The Starving Camel Is Still Bigger Than The Horse_1 Lyke Zhekova entered, temporarily placed everything on the ground, then said, “The last time I came, I was just Peggy’s friend, so it doesn’t count.
This is really the first time I am visiting as Peggy’s boyfriend, so I should regard it as more significant.”
Mrs.
Lewis felt somewhat overwhelmed as she looked at all the things he brought.
“Are you going to bring so many things each time you visit?
This is not acceptable.” Mrs.
Lewis immediately said.
“When I start coming more often, I’ll bring fewer things each visit.” Lyke Zhekova agreed.
...
It was impossible for him to come empty-handed.
Mrs.
Lewis felt relieved and reluctantly agreed.
“Come in and have a seat.” Mrs.
Lewis arranged for Lyke Zhekova to sit, right opposite Mr.
Lewis.
The atmosphere this time was completely different from the last.
This time, Mr.
Lewis was looking at Lyke Zhekova as his prospective son-in-law, and it felt particularly strange.
They arrived early, purposely choosing a time after Mr.
and Mrs.
Lewis had just finished lunch, and before they had started preparing for dinner.
Mr and Mrs Lewis sat together.
Unlike Mrs.
Lewis, Mr.
Lewis felt as though his daughter was being snatched by another man.
He was very reluctant and worried that none other than himself could treat Peggy as well.
Mr.
Lewis believed that no man could treat a woman better than her father.
But he also thought of Joshua Clarke.
Anyway, Joshua Clarke was an exception.
Wasn’t there also an anomaly like Christy Xenos?
There might be some mothers in the world who do not love their children and are even extremely harsh on them.
But those were rare instances.
Perversely, Christy Xenos didn’t not love her children; she just gave all her love to Wendy Clarke.
Mr.
Lewis realized he was getting off-topic.
In any case, he wasn’t Joshua Clarke.
Lyke Zhekova would definitely not treat Peggy as well as he, her father, did.
Mr.
Lewis’s gaze towards Lyke Zhekova involuntarily became more critical.
Mrs.
Lewis, on the other hand, was growing more and more pleased with her prospective son-in-law.
If they didn’t already know that Lyke Zhekova was 37, they wouldn’t have guessed.
For Mr and Mrs Lewis to feel at ease, Lyke Zhekova quickly moved to the point: “Mr.
and Mrs.
Lewis, I am dating Peggy with the intention to marry her.
You may safely entrust her to me.”
Mr.
Lewis: “…”
Mrs.
Lewis: “…”
Even though Mrs.
Lewis was very pleased with Lyke Zhekova, she was a bit confused.
Hadn’t the two just started dating?
Why was it that they were suddenly heading towards marriage?
Was it so soon?
Could it be that Peggy Lewis and Lyke Zhekova were planning to have a whirlwind marriage?
Even though Mrs.
Lewis was very satisfied with Lyke Zhekova and would like Peggy to marry early, she wasn’t thinking about rushing them quite this much.
The two had only just gotten together, shouldn’t they have some time to understand each other?
In Mrs.
Lewis’s estimation, if their relationship developed smoothly and they stayed together, a year or half a year of dating before getting married would be an ideal pace.
Who knew that Lyke Zhekova would be moving so quickly.
Was he launching like a rocket?
Not only Mr.
and Mrs.
Lewis were surprised, even Peggy was not mentally prepared for this.
Of course, if the person was Lyke Zhekova, she wouldn’t have any pre-marital fears.
She was ready to get the marriage license at any time!
“I am 37 years old this year and have never been in a relationship.
Peggy is my first love.” Lyke Zhekova continued.
Mr.
Lewis: “…”
Mrs.
Lewis: “…”
Mr.
and Mrs.
Lewis were shocked.
“Before this, I’ve always been upright and have not had any woman.” Lyke Zhekova made it very clear.
Mr.
Lewis: “…”
Mrs.
Lewis: “…”
Telling them so frankly, was that really a good idea?
But, he’s already 37, and doesn’t have any experience.
Whether it’s dating experience or that kind of experience, he’s completely inexperienced.
That’s stunning!
“So, Mr.
and Mrs.
Lewis, you don’t have to worry about any third parties, ex-girlfriends, or such.
Moreover, such women will not appear in the future to upset Peggy.
I haven’t encountered such a situation in the past 37 years, and with Peggy now, it will not happen.” Lyke Zhekova assured.
To Mrs.
Lewis’s surprise, did Lyke Zhekova have some kind of precognitive ability?
How did he perfectly address Mr.
Lewis’s worries?
“In the future, we’ll have to see your actions.” Mr.
Lewis didn’t buy into his words.
Now he is saying nice things, but who knows what will happen in the future?
When he says it, he looks very sincere, but when a temptation comes, will he still be able to resist it?
Lyke Zhekova nodded, “Yes, although it might take actions to prove it, time is also needed for inspection.”
It’s not like they can remain unmarried for life, right?
Everyone gets married by taking a gamble, right?
Betting that the other person will be good to them.
Believing that the other person will be good to them.
“My father is still alive, but because of his old age, his legs and feet aren’t very convenient, so he mostly uses a wheelchair to move around.
There are caregivers and housekeepers taking care of him.
Other than that, he is still very energetic.
My mother has passed away.” Lyke Zhekova gave a brief description of his family.
“As for me, I am currently the CEO of Majestic Corp., which is under Pingla Group.” Lyke Zhekova also mentioned the restaurant managed by Majestic, “The brands that I personally own include!”
Lyke Zhekova then listed the brands he owned.
And the shares he held in Pingla Group.
“Mr.
and Mrs.
Lewis, you can rest assured that even if I resign my position in the future, Peggy, with me, will not suffer.” Lyke Zhekova said.
Mr.
and Mrs.
Lewis naturally believed him.
A starved camel is still bigger than a horse.
Lyke Zhekova, on the other hand, was far from being a starved camel.
“This is a general description of my situation, Mr.
and Mrs.
Lewis, you can be at ease.” Lyke Zhekova said.
Mr.
Lewis: “…”
Mrs.
Lewis: “…”
They thought to themselves, if they said they weren’t reassured now, would Lyke Zhekova bring identification, property certificates, and such to show them next time?
As they were thinking, Lyke Zhekova’s mobile phone rang.
He apologized to Mr.
and Mrs.
Lewis, took out his mobile phone, and saw it was a call from the Old Madam.
Lyke said, “This is a call from our family’s Old Madam, which would be Vu Shen’s grandmother.
I’ll take it.”
Mr.
and Mrs.
Lewis, of course, did not mind.
Lyke Zhekova guessed why the Old Madam was calling.
But he still stood up to take the call by the door, “Auntie, I am currently at Peggy’s parent’s house.”
Since he knew what the Old Madam had called about, Lyke Zhekova just said it directly, without leaving her to ask.
The Old Madam was immediately delighted and asked, “How’s it going?
Is everything going smoothly?”
“We just arrived not long ago.
I’m in the middle of introducing myself to Mr.
and Mrs.
Lewis.” Lyke Zhekova explained.
“Yes, yes, yes, it’s important to make everything clear.” The Old Madam said.
