Rebirth of the Villainous Female Boss -
Chapter 955 - Chapter 955 Chapter 928 Hey Not Bad
Chapter 955: Chapter 928: Hey, Not Bad Chapter 955: Chapter 928: Hey, Not Bad “What are you doing cursing yourself as a bastard?” Mario Yuno couldn’t stand it any longer. How much hatred did his daughter-in-law have to curse even herself?
“I’m just telling you, don’t tell him, and don’t contact him, okay? I’ll handle it, you understand?”
“Yeah, got it.” Camden mentally shrugged; it wasn’t that he wasn’t trying to help his mother-in-law. He had relayed what he had been asked to. Kiara was stubborn; once she’d made up her mind, nobody could change it. He just needed to show he had tried to his mother-in-law.
After all, Camden secretly despised that former father-in-law.
Although Robert Johnson ‘Father’ wasn’t her biological father, he was perfectly capable. He had helped with the wedding preparations alongside Kiara’s mother and even used his own money to prepare her dowry; he was no less than a real father.
Mario Yuno preferred to be nicer to this stepfather-in-law rather than to the former one; whoever was good to Kiara was the father-in-law for him. He didn’t care who Kiara’s real dad was; being good to his daughter-in-law was what really mattered.
The Lyon Clan home was filled with jubilation, not only because their daughter was getting married but also because Draco Clark’s predicted exam scores had been released.
Once Kiara got home, Kiara’s mother first glanced at Mario Yuno with a questioning look about that matter.
Mario Yuno shook his head at her, signaling that if she didn’t want to get an earful from Kiara, it would be best not to bring it up.
Kiara’s mother sighed internally. Since her daughter was so averse to it, she decided not to mention it. She wasn’t particularly fixated on the matter; she had moved on from her ex-husband long ago. Her concern was merely that her daughter’s wedding might lack an essential attendee and might lead to gossip among relatives, which is why she had asked Mario Yuno to mention it.
But it still depended on Kiara’s wishes. If she was unhappy, there was no need to bring it up again and potentially spoil the joyous occasion for the entire family.
“Good to have you back. Stay for dinner, Mario, and afterwards, help your Uncle Liao Walker write out the invitations on our side. We can also discuss the wedding details.”
“Sure, Mum,” Mario Yuno adopted the obedient son-in-law manner. To marry the jewel of a family, it was essential to show the right attitude.
“Now that everyone from our home is here, let’s have a meeting to discuss some important matters.” Kiara’s mother had several things on her mind she wanted to talk about.
Draco Clark, who sat on the sofa with his legs crossed, devouring watermelon in his underpants, immediately sat upright upon hearing this.
“Firstly, Kiara is getting married–there’s not much to discuss about that. The Yuno Family called this morning to confirm some details for the wedding day. Your Uncle Liao Walker took note of everything; after dinner, Kiara and Mario can take a look. According to our customs, we’ll have the family reception here the day before and go to the groom’s side the next day. The attire should be delivered tomorrow so you two can try it on and see if it fits. There’s nothing to be said about that.”
Arlong vigorously nodded his head. His sister’s wedding preparations had started a while back; what was there to discuss? With the Old Yates Family attending to every detail, the couple only returned close to the wedding date. They didn’t need to worry; competent family members had taken care of everything.
Get to the main point already~ Arlong looked expectantly at his mum, clearing his throat to grab attention.
Kiara’s mother glanced at him and continued.
“Kiara’s wedding is settled. Now we need to talk about Giorno’s situation. Those kids, really…”
Kiara’s mother shook her head.
Arlong pouted. This wasn’t really what he considered “serious business.”
“Didn’t Giorno already register his marriage? What else could there be?” Kiara remembered that Olivia Brown had mentioned it a few days ago; after what had happened, the two of them had confirmed their commitment to each other and decided not to wait too long, so they went ahead and registered their marriage.
“They’ve finished registering, but now they insist on not having a conventional wedding. They’re talking about some travel wedding nonsense. What kind of message does that send to the neighbors?”
Kiara’s mother felt that since the young couple was getting married openly and honorably, a proper banquet should be hosted to bring both families together. The idea of a travel wedding sounded not only impoverished to her, but spread the impression that she was mistreating her stepson.
In the eyes of the elders, any wedding without a banquet wasn’t a proper wedding.
“Let the child make his own decision,” Robert Johnson said good-naturedly.
Young people always have some new ideas. It was Olivia who wanted the travel wedding; she’s really averse to hassle. Since travel weddings are in vogue, she clung to Giorno, insisting on doing it this way. Though Giorno was somewhat inclined to go along with a proper wedding, he couldn’t resist Olivia’s pleading–in fact, he agreed to it in bed, after all, it wouldn’t be right to go back on his word once out of bed.
“No way, I entrusted this to Kiara. Kiara, you go and talk some sense into Olivia. Our two families are both decent big families, why should we sneak around with a secret travel wedding?” Kiara’s mother was worried that when her daughter went all out for her wedding, while her stepson’s wedding seemed clandestine, it might give the impression that she was a problematic stepmother.
“How is a travel wedding sneaking around? Isn’t it quite nice?” If it weren’t for the Yuno Family’s standing, Kiara wouldn’t want to deal with such hassle at all.
But things in life are unpredictable; those who didn’t want a big fuss ended up having one, while those who had been fussing about having a grand wedding ran into mishaps on the day itself.
Kiara’s mother was discussing wedding matters with Kiara when Arlong wouldn’t have it.
“What’s there to discuss about this little matter? As long as my sister steps in, what problem can’t be solved? Let’s drop it and have my sister figure it out,” he said.
Kiara’s mother thought about it and agreed.
“Then, Kiara, you handle the matter of convincing Olivia. There’s nothing else to do now, and you two must be tired after your long journey home. Go take a shower, eat some watermelon, and then just wait for dinner.”
Being ignored from start to finish, Arlong finally felt depressed.
“Mum! You still haven’t addressed the main point!”
“What main point?”
“About my school and my exam scores!”
“Oh! Right, there’s that too!” Kiara’s mother smacked her forehead, remembering.
“While everyone else is partial to boys, I don’t ask for a higher status than my sister’s family, but you can’t ignore me like this…” Arlong murmured under his breath. At times like this, Camden would pretend to be harmlessly innocent.
Because what came next was the moment for comparison with his older sister.
“You have the nerve to say that; if you were half as capable as your sister in anything, I’d be over the moon. Old sayings go that a son-in-law is half a son, but even if Edward Wheeler ‘Bright Clarity’ were split in two, he would still be far better than your whole self. At best, you’re only a fifth of your brother-in-law.”
Underpants! Arlong was stung by the comment.
“Mum, don’t say that, Arlong is pretty good too,” Mario Yuno tried to smooth things over.
This time, Kiara’s mother didn’t criticize her son as before, and even seemed a bit pleased.
“Arlong’s exam scores were quite good this time; he scored over 30 more points than estimated and made the Tier Three university cutoff.”
Kiara and Mario Yuno both raised their eyebrows in surprise. Well, not bad at all.
