Me Before You

Chapter 80

Anna's mother thought that she can threaten Anna by saying that she won't let her go to the university. Unexpectedly, she failed again. She stared at Anna with amazement and suddenly asked, "Did you refuse Alex Clarke because of that man?"

Anna knew that her mother was talking about Jack Smith. After all, she had not seen Daniel Taylor but she had seen Anna leaving the house with Jack Smith. "No."

Anna's mother was helpless, "If it's not for him. Then why..."

Anna interrupted her, "Why you really liked that Alex Clarke?"

"He has a good job, a good monthly income, and a good family background. You can't find a man like him. He is perfect for you. I am sure that he was also interested in you..." Anna's mother still didn't want to give up.

Her mother even felt proud just by thinking that her daughter will get married to a man who worked in a public institution!

Anna sighed helplessly. Sometimes, she didn't feel angry but despairing. Her mother was a typical woman who worked in a market, and she usually dealt with such people. In her mind, she really adored such a lifestyle.

Anna was also sure about her mother's vision and mentality.

However, she didn't come here to quarrel with her mother. "I'm married. His parents want to see you. Tell me when you will be available."

"Sister, are you really married?" Aiden Stark didn't believe her.

Anna looked at her mother, who was shocked. It didn't matter whether her mother agreed or disagreed, "Doesn't mom always wanted me to get married? She should be happy to know that I am married."

"What the hell are you saying? You wanted me to die with anger?" Anna's mother had already lost all her senses after listening to Anna. She raised her hand to slap Anna.

Anna immediately grabbed her mother's wrist, "Mom, I'm not a child. You shouldn't try to hit me."

When she was a child, her mother had often beaten her because of her small mistakes. But now, she has the ability to distinguish right from wrong. It was her right to make her own choices. So, in the future, she decided to go by herself, not by her parent's orders.

Her mother looked at Anna. She didn't know why. She found that Anna had become much stronger than before.

Anna released her mother's hand and said, "Sit down, I need to talk."

She was no more than a little girl whose mother was in charge of everything. She asked her mother to sit down because she really wanted to talk well with her.

Her mother sat down, looked at Anna and said angrily, "You are already an adult, now you think it's unnecessary to talk with your parents about anything. You dare to marry without my consent?"

Anna avoided her mother's anger and stated her purpose, "His parents want to meet you and Dad, and they want to invite you for a meal. You can tell me a day when it will be convenient for."

"Want to meet us? No way." Anna embarrassed her today in front of Clarke's, she didn't want to make Anna felt better.

Anna took a calm look at her mother and sighed, "Okay, if you don't want to meet, its fine, I'll tell them when I will get back."

Anna thought instead of persuading her mother here, it would be easy to go back and discuss this matter with Sir and ask him to convince his parents.

Her mother stared at Anna, who looked very calm. She felt that her refusal and attitude didn't really affect her daughter, she regretted a little and said, "Okay, I'll go!"

She thought if that man's family condition was not good like Alex Clarke, she will refuse them on their face.

"When will you be free? They will be free this Saturday, what you say?"

Anna's mother didn't say anything. It means she agreed. Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.

Aiden Stark looked at the table and asked, "Mom, they ordered a lot of food and left without paying the bill. Who will pay the bill?"

Alex Clarke ordered a lot of food, and the food must be costly.

"I don't have money." Mother was very angry.

"I will pay the bill," Anna asked the waiter to bring the bill.
