Slumdog Billionaire Husband -
Chapter 635
Chapter 635 I Don't Deserve Him
At the Cousy's place in Sacramento.
In the huge villa of the Cousy family, many people were sitting in the dining room. Doreen was dressed very beautifully and sat there quietly. Beside her was her older brother, Armand, who was very robust.
Armand was smiling as he looked up and down at a man wearing glasses! The person looked gentle and was in his thirties. He was dressed in a suit and tie, looking like a successful person! This was Doreen's fiancé. Doreen and this man had already met each other's parents.
Armand was very satisfied with his future brother-in-law. He now acted completely different from how he disapproved of Doreen's relationship with Gerald.
Doreen's current fiancé was a young talent in Sacramento. He was only in his thirties and had already achieved a good performance in the business industry. He had an asset worth tens of millions. His family also valued this marriage very much.
Originally, they planned to let the young couple get along for a while. But firstly, Doreen was a little slow. Every time her fiancé asked her out, she would replace all kinds of excuses to avoid him. Secondly, the matter of the Elite Ghost made the two families a little worried, so they sped up the progress!
Doreen had a smile on her face, but if one paid attention to look at her more carefully, one could see a trace of sorrow in the depths of her eyes.
She did not like this man, but at the age of marriage, she was willing to replace a proper person to marry!
Looking at the smiles on the faces of the two families, Doreen smiled and said, "Excuse me."
As she spoke, she stood up from her seat and walked towards her room!
When Armand saw Doreen's action, he frowned. Then, he also found himself a reason and returned to the room!
Inside the room, Doreen was sitting aside. On the table placed a tablet! There was a video shown on the screen. The video was an edited one.
It was the video of Gerald fighting alone in the battle between the Watchmen and the Elite Ghosts. The video showed how Gerald fought the Gold Elite Ghost, roared to the Purple Elite Ghost, and how he constantly entered the battlefield to fight, holding a lightsword and shouting, "For every being who is breathing!"
Because there were many people in the battle, Gerald's figure didn't appear too long in the video. So this edited picture lasted only five or six minutes, but Doreen watched it again and again during this period of time!
The boy who grew up together with her, the boy who had once made her heart move, now became a hero, a hero of the entire human race. But the two of them had drifted apart.
Doreen would accept this man she was dating and get married someday. She just didn't him for the time being. She just wanted some more time to get used to it.
Armand walked into the room. When he saw the tablet on Doreen's table, he frowned and said, "Doreen, you are about to get married. Don't watch the video again. What's the point of looking at that?" "I know, and I'll accept it. Are you satisfied?" Doreen sat on her chair and said calmly without raising her head to look at Armand
Armand was stunned. "I'm doing this for your good!"
"Yeah, you're doing it for my sake. All of you say it like that. You all want me to replace a man with a property so that my future can be guaranteed. Go and replace Gerald. Tell him that I don't deserve him." Doreen chuckled and said, "But I've always been curious. Is our family short of money?"
Armand was stunned and wanted to refute, but Doreen continued, "Gerald bore the infamy of nine years. I once felt that there was something wrong with him. After he came back and stood up for his name, I thought I could start over with him again!
"But you said that he doesn't deserve me. It is kind of funny." Doreen looked at Gerald on the screen and said, "Look at him. The one who isn't good enough is not him, but me!”
Armand's eyes showed a hint of speechlessness. Then he said hesitantly, "He is good at martial arts, so what? If he fights to death outside, what kind of life will you face? I don't want you to..."
"Your life, my life, and all of our lives were saved by him at the stake of his own life." Doreen suddenly stood up and said, "I won't allow you to talk about him like that!"
Armand was stunned. Doreen was always a gentle girl. She had always been an educated and reasonable. person. She had never used such an excited tone to talk to him.
"I'm in a bad mood!" After saying that, Doreen seemed to feel that something was wrong. She shook her head. and said, "Go and stay with them. I want to be alone. Don't worry. Now that I promised to marry, I won't go back on my word. I just need some time to adjust. I will play the role of a good wife."
Armand felt a little complicated. For some reason, when he heard this, he felt a bit of sadness and regret in his heart.
"Alright, you should make some adjustments to your emotions," Armand said and left the room.
Doreen thought for a moment. Then she took out her phone, found Gerald's phone number, and dialed it!
On the other side...
In the car, Gerald felt a headache coming on. He looked at Carolyn and said, "Why are they here? How many people have come?"
"There are quite a lot of people. It is a large family, including about a dozen people!" Carolyn said, "Anyway. she wants to get remarried to you. Your parents have gone over, and it is extremely awkward over there. Your parents were so pissed to replace out that you have been married and almost fainted."
Speaking of this, Carolyn had a mocking expression on her face.
Beside her, Valery couldn't help but smile, looking like she was waiting to watch a good show.
Gerald felt a headache. He had never mentioned his marriage with Irene to his parents.
Just as he was talking, his phone suddenly rang. He took it out and looked at it. Then he said in surprise, "Why did Doreen call me?"
"Tsk tsk," Carolyn said with a meaningful smile, "Your ex-wife is here and your old lover is here too. Boss, you are so popular with the girls."
At the same, a trace of coldness appeared on Valery's face. Gerald felt so troubled.
"Nothing is going on between us," Gerald said. "I'll turn on the speaker. Be quiet!"
Then he picked up the call and put it on speaker.
After the call was connected, Doreen's voice came from the phone. "Gerald! We haven't contacted each other for a long time since the incident involving the Kenneth family."
"Indeed. It's been a while. Do you have anything to tell me?" Gerald asked.
Doreen was silent for a while and then said with a smile, "Do you think we can only contact each other when there is something to be dealt with? Are you treating me as an acquaintance now?" Upon hearing this, Gerald's forehead was covered in sweat.
"But I do have something to talk to you about," Doreen said. "I'm going to get married!"
Hearing this, Gerald was stunned. Then, he hurriedly said, "Congratulations! I wish you all the best!"
"If..." Doreen spoke halfway and then fell silent. After a minute, she said, "The wedding will be held in ten days. Are you willing to come?"
Gerald frowned. "Ten days later... You should know now that I am a Watchman and often go out on missions. I have been very busy recently, so I am afraid I can't come. No matter what, I wish you happiness!" On the other side of the line, Doreen fell silent again. After a while, Doreen smiled and said, "Alright! Sorry to disturb you!"
After that, she hung up the phone!
Gerald looked at his phone, wiped his forehead, and said, "Look, there is nothing going on between her and me at all!"
A smile appeared on Valery's face. And Carolyn said, "In short, I look forward to your return to the Night Watch Base. You'll meet your ex-wife there! That will be the show of the year!"
