Chapter 763 Impulsive Vow To An Enigmatic Husband
- Hearing these words from an elder’s mouth was indeed a rarity. Nowadays, many young folks were reluctant to have children, given the high cost and the immense effort it took to raise one. However, many parents, stuck in their old ways, failed to understand this and continued to pressure their children to carry on their lineage. Steven said, “Mom, I love you!” Jacqueline asked, “Why the sudden sweetness?” Steven said, “Enough chit-chat, Mom. I’m going to find Hannah.” Jacqueline replied, “Go ahead. As long as you bring her back, I promise to treat her well.” Steven said, “I’m afraid she might not give you the chance to.” Steven continued, “You should go with Kenny. I’m hanging up now.”

After a two-hour flight, Steven landed in Haines in the early afternoon. Rick picked him up, “President Dixon, I knew you’d come to Haines for Christmas.” Steven shot him a cold glance, “You’re getting ahead of yourself.” Rick grinned, “It’s not about me, but it’s about you not being able to leave your wife alone.
