Deep Love Hidden From Him

Chapter 634

Everleigh laughed and said nothing else. Let it be. It was rare for them to have free time to shop. Alastair and Adrienne were also growing taller. They couldn't fit into a lot of their clothes, either. Maybe she could get some new things for them.

They bought a lot of things in the mall. As they were looking for a place to stop for a break, they unexpectedly bumped into Erine. She sat in a chair in a daze, with tears on her face.

Everleigh and Cecil shared a look and hurried over.

"Erine."

She turned over. She wiped off her tears as soon as she saw them. "Why are you both here?"

"That's not important. Why are you crying? Where is Christopher?" Everleigh looked around, not seeing him anywhere.

Erine lowered her head and faintly said, "He's not here."

"He's not? It's his day off today. There's no reason for him not to accompany you." Everleigh was even more confused. What was going on?

Erine said with a wry smile, "I came out alone.

Christopher doesn't know I'm here."

"Why? Doesn't he always follow you closely? He cares a lot for you," Cecil asked in confusion. In fact, she was more eager to know why Erine was there alone and crying.

However, it would be too abrupt to ask.

"Erine, are your parents here?" Everleigh suddenly asked seriously. Erine was such a person that she would always be full of smiles towards everyone. The only people who could make her sad were her parents. She couldn't think of anyone else.

Erine looked at her and said with a bitter smile, "Yes, they're here."

Everleigh asked anxiously, "What did they say?"

"My father knows that I am staying here for good, and he is not satisfied. He insists that I go back and marry Maverick. In fact, I know more or less that the Harrison family can't hold out for long overseas. Otherwise, why are they in a rush for me to go back and be married?" Erine looked grim, but more of it was for herself. She was already an illegitimate child. Why couldn't he let her go?

She was more willing to see her father dead, because at the very least, these things would not be happening to her.

The father whom she had once wished for appeared to be a wolf, trying to tear her down continuously.

Cecil felt the sadness from deep within. She could not say anything except feel sympathetic for her situation.

After all, arranged marriages between the great families were ubiquitous.

"Is Christopher aware?"

"How would he be? Although I keep in touch with him... He's not a real boyfriend," Erine said cautiously.

Everleigh didn't say much because it was true that the relationship between them was not so real.

"You should let Christopher know so that the Meyer family would intervene. It will be much better than taking care of it by yourself." Everleigh was full of concern. She hoped that Christopher would come forward. This guy had many ideas, so it would be most appropriate for them to be together.

"Let's not talk about my family affairs."

"Why can't we talk about it? You're the future daughter-in-law of the Meyer family. Let's go to them now." Cecil was a woman of action. She would do whatever she said.

Since Erine's parents were looking for her that day, one could not be sure what they would do to her the next day.

Erine resisted when she saw that Cecil was going to take her away. "We don't have to go."

"No, you have to ask the Meyer family to come forward. Your words won't have much effect, and that's your father. The Meyer family will need to intervene in this matter," Cecil said seriously.

Erine refused, but she could not stop Cecil and Everleigh from bringing her to the Meyer family home.

At the gate of the manor, Cecil and Everleigh felt slightly regretful. As expected, impulsiveness was the devil. They brought Erine here. How could they explain the matter to the Meyer family?

Cecil looked at Everleigh with a hint of pleading in her gaze. "Why don't you bring Erine in?"

"It's you who said that you would come over with her. Now that you're here, why are you not going in?" Everleigh didn't want to do this. Who was the one who brought Erine to come?

Erine did not want to go in either. "Then, let's go back first."

"That won't do. Let's go in together." Since they had come, Erine couldn't leave just like that.

Everleigh took Erine's hand and went in.

The butler recognized them and didn't stop them. He opened the door and let them in.

It was rare for Christopher and Samuel to play chess at home. When they heard of Erine's arrival, both of them were happy, especially Christopher. Previously, he had always been the one who brought Erine home, but this time, she came over on her own. It showed that she had begun to accept him in her heart.

However, he didn't expect that besides Erine, Everleigh and Cecil were there too.

"Why are the three of you here?"

"If we didn't come here, your future wife would have been taken from you." Cecil was straightforward and said it directly.

Christopher and Samuel looked at Erine. She blushed and told him that her parents were looking for her.

After hearing that, Christopher lost his temper. "You don't have to worry. I'm here if anything happens. I'll call your father tomorrow and make an appointment to have a talk with him."

He knew that this matter would need to be handled sooner or later.

She was the woman he had chosen. It was impossible for her to be taken away so easily.

Samuel frowned as if he was thinking about something.

"Mr. Meyer, what are your thoughts?" Everleigh noticed him being silent.

Samuel glanced at Everleigh and thought for a moment. "I'll go visit her father with Erine tomorrow."

"Huh?" The four people said in unison.

It was not appropriate for him to go with them.

Samuel thought about it and said, "The marriage between a man and a woman is an unalterable principle. Christopher will definitely not be able to discuss properly. Let me go. At least it'll be easier to talk with each other since we are both elders."

As soon as Samuel finished speaking, all of them stopped talking. They were elders, so they could say things that needed to be said.

"Would that be too much trouble for you?" Erine said, embarrassed.

"You are my daughter-in-law. As a father-in-law, of course, I can't let my son lose his wife." It was rare for Samuel to tease her.

Everleigh and Cecil couldn't help laughing. Both of them were envious. Samuel was a man of few words and would only speak when Vanessa was with him. They didn't expect him to be such a thoughtful person.

As the head of the household, he had come forward to be in charge of this marriage. This was a show of respect for Erine's father.

It would be rather unreasonable if the negotiation failed.

Erine blushed because of his words. Although it warmed her heart, it made her a little...

"Dad, maybe I should go personally," Christopher spoke up.

"If you want to listen to our discussion, just sit aside and don't interfere." How could Samuel not know what his son was thinking?

However, after all, he was still too young, and there were some things that were not convenient for him to say.

"Alright." Christopher could tell that Samuel was determined and had made up his mind.

He could only do what his father told him.

Cecil and Everleigh looked at each other and smiled. It was extremely good. It was most appropriate for the Meyer family to come forward.Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
