Chapter 137 You Will Not Be Hired

• Isla, on the other hand, expressed her disapproval by saying, “No! That won't do. Nathaniel has been living under our roof and eating our food. How can we let our daughter marry him, too? I won't agree to this unless he gives us a hundred thousand worth of betrothal gifts. Also, he has to at least own a house if he wants to marry our daughter. I won't ask much. A two-bedroom apartment will do.”
• Howard merely sighed and said, “I'm going to make some dinner.”
• He knew his wife's temper, so he couldn't be bothered to argue with her.
