CHAPTER 191
Johnson was completely taken aback."Dad!""What is it?" Mr Edward asked innocently."Why are you saying something like that?"Mr Edward laughed."What is wrong with what I said? I asked a simple question."Johnson shook his head."Dad, you cannot just ask me to marry someone because you have heard that she is a good woman.""Of course, I cannot force you to marry anyone. Marriage is a serious decision, and you must be certain about the woman you choose."Johnson released a breath he had been holding."Exactly, Dad. That is what I am saying."Mr Edward continued calmly. "But I want you to think about it. I am not getting younger, my son.”“I have spent many years hoping that one day I would have grandchildren around me. I want to see them, carry them in my arms, and watch them grow."Johnson's expression softened."Dad, you are still strong. You will have enough time to enjoy your grandchildren."Mr Edward chuckled."That is what you young people always say. You keep telling us that w
CHAPTER 190
Johnson drove home that evening with many thoughts running through his mind. After settling down, he remembered that he had not spoken to his father for some time.He picked up his phone and dialed his father's number. The phone connected almost immediately."Good evening, Dad," Johnson greeted with a smile."Good evening, my son. How are you doing?" Mr Edward asked warmly."I'm fine, Dad. How about you? I hope you are feeling better today."Mr Edward chuckled softly. "I am doing well, my son. You don't have to worry too much about me. I am getting better every day."Johnson smiled. "That is good to hear, Dad. You need to take good care of yourself and follow the doctor's instructions.""Of course, I will. But you know how it is. Staying at home all day can be boring." Johnson laughed."You should be patient, Dad. You will return to your normal activities soon.""I hope so, my son. By the way, how is the estate project progressing?"Johnson adjusted his position on the sofa."The proj
CHAPTER 189
Everyone inside the boutique was stunned by what the manager had said.Whispers immediately spread throughout the boutique."Did you hear what the manager just said?" one customer whispered to another."Perhaps he does not understand who he is dealing with. That woman and her son can destroy this boutique if they want."Brian and his mother were equally shocked. They stared at the manager as though he had suddenly lost his mind.Brian was the first to recover. He stepped forward angrily and pointed at the manager."Are you a fool? Can't you see who is standing before you?" he shouted.The manager remained calm.Brian pointed at his mother. "This is the wife of the Minister of Finance! I am her son, and you have the courage to choose this lowly street beggar over us?"The manager looked at him politely."Sir, I understand what you are saying, but I have not chosen anyone over you. I am only explaining how we treat our customers."Brian laughed angrily and continued, "If we take this ma
CHAPTER 188
Brian looked at Johnson furiously. He could not believe that Johnson had the courage to stand quietly in front of him after disrespecting his mother. His face became dark with anger as he took a step closer to Johnson.“Johnson, do you know who you are talking about?” Brian asked in a loud voice.Johnson looked at him without saying a word.Brian pointed towards his mother.“This woman is the wife of the Minister of Finance! Do you understand what that means?”“She deserves respect from everyone, regardless of where she goes.”“How dare you refuse to give her the parking space she wanted?”Johnson remained quiet.Brian waited for him to respond, but Johnson did not say anything. He simply looked at Brian with a calm expression, as though the angry young man standing before him was not worth his attention.This made Brian even angrier.“Johnson, I am talking to you!” he shouted. “Do you think you can just ignore me?”Johnson slowly raised his eyes to meet Brian's.“What do you want m
CHAPTER 187
The moment Brian heard his mother calling him, he immediately walked towards her with a concerned expression. He looked at her face and noticed that she was angry. Her eyes were filled with irritation, and she kept shaking her head as though she had experienced something terrible.“Mother, what happened?” Brian asked again. “Why are you so angry? Did someone offend you?”His mother sighed heavily before pointing towards the entrance.“Brian, you have no idea what I just experienced outside. I came here peacefully to shop, and a poor man decided to insult me. Can you imagine that?”Brian's expression changed immediately.“Someone insulted you?” he asked.“Yes!” she answered loudly. “That dirty fellow had the courage to disrespect me. I told him to move his car from the parking space I wanted, but he refused. He behaved as though he owned the entire place.”As she spoke, Johnson stood quietly a short distance away, watching the mother and son. The moment he looked closely at the woman
CHAPTER 186
Johnson stared at Brian in surprise after hearing that he intended to propose to Emily at her birthday banquet.For a moment, he wondered whether Brian was serious or simply trying to show off in front of him.Brian noticed his expression and laughed.“Why are you looking at me like that? Are you so shocked that you cannot even speak?”Johnson slowly turned towards him.“What makes you think I am shocked?”Brian smiled proudly and adjusted his expensive wristwatch.“Come on, Johnson. You do not have to pretend. I know you never expected someone like me to make such a decision.”Johnson remained silent..Brian continued speaking as though he was addressing someone who knew nothing about the world.“After all, Emily is our old schoolmate, right? We studied together, and we have known each other for a long time. There is nothing wrong with me wanting to marry her.”Johnson nodded slightly.“I did not say there was anything wrong with it.”“Then why are you looking at me like that?” Brian
