Substitute Marriage: Reborn As The Top Big-Shot - Chapter 478:
Chapter 478: 171: I have never lost in my entire life, but I lost to a child! _2
At this point, Zachary Mayhew pulled out a bank card and slapped it on the table. “There’s exactly five hundred thousand on this card! The password is six eights. Uncle, Aunt, take the card!”
Seeing this, Dalton Tavas immediately stood up, “Zach! I don’t agree!”
This five hundred thousand was hard-earned by Zachary Mayhew.
“Mom! Do you want me to die!” Zachary Mayhew looked at Dalton Tavas.
These words scared Jimmy Mayhew. He hadn’t spoken up until now but stood up immediately from the sofa. “You shut up! Listen to Zach!”
After saying that, he looked at Beatrice Black and Gregory Diet. “Esteemed father and mother, let’s do what our Zach says. Here’s the five hundred thousand, and we’ll take care of the remaining banquet and band. Zach is our only son, and I promise to make the wedding magnificent!”
When Jimmy Mayhew suddenly got angry, Dalton Tavas had no choice but to agree.
She understood Zachary Mayhew’s temper.
She couldn’t let her son die over a woman.
Dalton Tavas could only sigh.
Beatrice Black laughed, “Are you the one making this decision? Who doesn’t know that a woman is the boss in your family?”
This remark made Jimmy Mayhew’s face a little uncomfortable, “Of course, Esteemed mother. As a man, my word is my bond!”
“All right,” Beatrice Black nodded. “Since your family is so sincere, then there’s room for negotiation.”
Seeing this, Zachary Mayhew immediately helped Beatrice Black to sit down, “Aunt, please sit down.”
Gregory Diet and Beatrice Black sat back down on the sofa.
Zachary Mayhew continued to stuff the bank card into Beatrice Black’s hand, “Aunt, don’t be angry. My mother didn’t really mean that, so don’t misunderstand.”
Beatrice Black turned to look at Zachary Mayhew, “Don’t worry, I’m not a stingy person.”
Hearing these words, Dalton Tavas was even more annoyed.
What did Beatrice Black mean by that?
Was she mocking her?
But Dalton Tavas had to endure it at this time.
Wait.
After Beatrice’s daughter gets married, she’d definitely teach her a lesson.
Let her know how formidable a mother-in-law is!
Zachary Mayhew smiled, “Aunt, as long as you’re not mad. So about Geraldine and me getting married…”
Beatrice Black said, “You’re a good kid, responsible and able to make money. I’m naturally one hundred percent satisfied and confident in entrusting Geraldine to you.”
Upon hearing this, Zachary Mayhew let out a breath of relief.
Jimmy Mayhew continued, “Esteemed mother, now our families will be related by marriage.”
After saying that, Jimmy Mayhew continued, “What do you think, should we let these two kids get married sooner rather than later?”
Beatrice Black said, “Why don’t we pick a date and just get married? You know our family’s situation. Geraldine has been accepted to college. To avoid any unnecessary delay, we can skip the engagement altogether. As for the banquet, you can handle it however you want. I think the 18th is a good day, and if that works for you, come and pick her up on the 18th.”
Jimmy Mayhew felt the time was a bit tight.
Marriage is a major event in life, and Zachary Mayhew was their only son. The wedding should not be rushed.
But to Zachary Mayhew, it wasn’t fast enough. He wished he could marry Geraldine right away.
“Alright, let’s do as Aunt says.”
Beatrice Black nodded, picked up the bank card on the table, “That’s settled then, we’ll be going now.”
Zachary Mayhew escorted the couple to the door.
“Uncle, Aunt, take care.”
“Zach, wait a moment,” Beatrice Black, as if she had just thought of something, grabbed Zachary Mayhew’s arm. “Bring your ID and come with us.”
Zachary Mayhew looked puzzled, “Aunt, do you have something else to do?”
Beatrice Black said, “We’ll take a trip to the bank.”
They needed to check if there was really money on the card.
What if the Mayhew family was tricking her?
Zachary Mayhew nodded, “All right, let’s go. My ID is in the car.”
Beatrice Black and Gregory Diet followed Zachary Mayhew’s steps, and they all got into the car.
About an hour later, they arrived at the town.
Zachary Mayhew brought Beatrice Black and Gregory Diet to the bank. Under the guidance of the bank staff, he transferred all five hundred thousand yuan from the card to Gregory Diet’s account.
Zachary Mayhew laughed, “Uncle, Aunt, are you relieved now?”
Only then did Beatrice Black relax.
Otherwise, she always felt that the Mayhew family was trying to deceive her.
By the time Zachary Mayhew sent Beatrice Black and Gregory Diet back, it was already past six in the evening.
Rachel Barton was sitting at the door.
Seeing her parents return, she immediately stepped forward to greet them.
