Nora Mills' change of attitude instantly cooled the cheerful atmosphere.
Chasel Mills' smile also froze on his face.
He had thought that after five years, things had changed, but he still didn't expect that people's hearts were so cold, and the girl who used to stick to him every day and shouted that she wanted to marry him would change so much.
"This is... Chasel Mills, you're back..."
The faces of several aunts also changed slightly, and they were a little embarrassed.
Chasel Mills founded the Beiqing Group at a young age and became a famous star entrepreneur in Verdant City. These aunts were very good to Chasel Mills, saying that the Mills family had a dragon, and they were flattering and polite everywhere.
But now, no one stood up, and after a dry sentence, no one greeted him anymore.
However, Nora Mills's sister-in-law had no scruples: "Chasel Mills, why are you back now? Don't you think you've embarrassed the Mills family enough? Do you want to come back to harm the Mills family, or do you want to come back and interfere when Nora and Samir are getting married?" Seeing her sister-in-law speak, Monica Anderson's face was also very ugly: "Chasel Mills, although An Guo promised you and Nora's marriage verbally as a joke, the situation is different now. Nora has her own happiness. Don't blame me for speaking harshly. You can't give Nora happiness now. If you are doing this for Nora's good, you should give up this idea. You shouldn't come back at this time!" "Enough!" Just when Monica Anderson wanted to say something, Gilberto Mills suddenly exploded, "Chasel finally came back, can't you say less? I say what I say..." However, Gilberto Mills Before she finished speaking, she was interrupted.
Nora Mills quickly shouted, "Dad!"
She knew her father's temper, and he would definitely say something to make her marry Chasel Mills.
How could she marry a rapist, even if this person was the one she had always said she would marry.
Seeing that his daughter was getting angry, Gilberto Mills sighed heavily, but did not say anything more.
"Chasel Mills, let's talk!"
After saying that, Nora Mills took the lead and walked outside.
Chasel Mills followed without saying anything!
Even though he deliberately restrained his momentum and made himself look like an ordinary young man next door, his military habits over the years still made him walk steadily, and inadvertently, the distance of each step was almost the same!
Others didn't see it, but Samir noticed it. However, he didn't think much about it. Instead, he looked at the backs of the two people, and a hint of anger flashed in his eyes.
"Chasel Mills..." Walking to the balcony outside, Nora Mills looked up at Chasel Mills.
However, before she could speak, Chasel Mills smiled bitterly and said, "Before, you wouldn't call me by my name directly!"
Hearing this, Nora Mills' eyes flickered slightly, but she sneered, "You know, that was in the past. Now, I don't even want to mention your name!"
God knows how sad and desperate she was when she learned that Chasel Mills was imprisoned for rape.
That feeling is like being betrayed by someone you have loved for many years!
After the pain, there is hatred.
After the hatred, Chasel Mills was completely wiped out from her heart.
"I was framed!" Chasel Mills explained. "Maybe!" Obviously, Nora Mills didn't believe it. "I called you out just to tell you that there is no possibility between us. I am in the south and you are in the north. We will never meet again!" Chasel Mills' smile remained, but it was more bitter. That was not what Nora Mills said back then. You and I, one in the south and one in the north, if we keep walking south, we will walk north. If we keep walking north, we will walk south. We are inseparable from each other forever! However, he didn't care about these. After five years of hard-working career, life and death, and love between men and women, Chasel Mills had long since lost interest in it. His feelings for Nora Mills back then had long been buried deep in his heart and gradually faded. What he valued more was the family relationship between him and Nora Mills. This time, he just wanted to see his adoptive parents and Nora Mills.
However, except for his adoptive father, everyone misunderstood him.
"I don't want you to destroy my current relationship, and I don't want my parents to quarrel because of you!"
"My parents have been criticized by others because of you over the years! Although you have been in prison, with your ability, it should not be difficult to find a job. Work hard in the future, be a good person, and don't bring shame to your parents!"
Nora Mills felt a little reluctant, but still said it in a cold voice.
Especially the four words "be a good person", which were bitten very hard.
"Don't worry, I'm not here to bother you this time, and I won't let my parents suffer any more grievances!"
Chasel Mills restrained his smile, took a deep breath, and felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.
Then, he took the lead in walking towards the living room. A hint of disappointment flashed across Nora Mills' face.
Five years in prison, five years out of touch with society, can you adapt to the current society?
Moreover, it is difficult for people who have been in prison to find a job, especially Chasel Mills's crime, which makes everyone despise and despise him. How can he have the qualifications to say these words?
Even she and her relatives despise Chasel Mills, not to mention others.
Especially Chasel Mills's words that he came back not to entangle her, made Nora Mills feel very uncomfortable!
After returning to the living room, Samir, who had been silent before, suddenly said, "Nora, don't you want to introduce me?"
Nora Mills subconsciously glanced at Chasel Mills, then walked to Samir's side, took Samir's hand, and took the initiative to introduce him: "This is my boyfriend and fiancé, the deputy general manager of Tianchen Pharmaceutical, Samir!"
Samir smiled and said, "I am just a figurehead. The company is now busy going public. My father is mainly in charge. He needs to train me for a few years before he will hand over the company to me!"
Humble tone, but in the eyes, there is an unconcealed pride.
"He is... Chasel Mills!"
Nora Mills looked at Chasel Mills again, without too much elaboration.
"Hello, I'm Nora's brother, Chasel Mills!"
Chasel Mills took the initiative to extend his hand. Today, the only people who can be treated with such courtesy by him are his comrades and a few respected elders. Others, no matter how powerful they are, are not qualified to let Chasel Mills take the initiative to extend his hand.
But since Samir is Nora Mills's fiancé, he is equivalent to his brother-in-law, so Chasel Mills took the initiative to extend his hand.
However, Samir's face showed a touch of embarrassment, as if with a hint of apology: "Hello, but I'm sorry, I don't have the habit of shaking hands with others, I'm so sorry!"
Chasel Mills's resolute eyes seemed to become a little deeper at this moment, and he calmly withdrew his hand.
Nora Mills' face showed a touch of embarrassment, but it was only fleeting.
"Chasel Mills?" Only then did Samir seem to be a little surprised, as if he had been thinking for a long time before finally coming to his senses, "Five years ago, wasn't there a strong man in Verdant City..."
At this point, Samir suddenly seemed to realize that he had said something wrong, and quickly changed his words: "Sorry, maybe it's just the same name."
Chasel Mills's expression remained unchanged.
The relatives of the Mills family, including Monica Anderson and Nora Mills, all had their faces changed. Remi felt embarrassed.
The look he gave Chasel Mills was even more unfriendly.
I shouldn't have adopted him back then. Only Gilberto Mills looked at Samir with dissatisfaction.
I just felt that this prospective son-in-law was a little hypocritical!
Then he quickly said: "Isn't it almost time for dinner? Is the meal ready?"
He wanted to help Chasel Mills out.
Monica Anderson immediately responded after hearing this.
"It will be ready soon, it will be ready soon!"
"Today is the first time Samir comes to our house, he must taste Auntie's cooking!"
Monica Anderson looked at Samir, just like a mother-in-law looking at her son-in-law, the more she looked, the more satisfied she was. He was handsome, his family ran a company, he was rich, and he was polite.
As she said that, she walked towards the kitchen, as if ignoring Chasel Mills.
"Come on, let's have a good drink today!"
Gilberto Mills, however, cared a lot about Chasel Mills.
"Okay, I'll accompany you!"
Chasel Mills smiled.
Even though he was seriously injured and shouldn't drink, he forgot about it.
Soon, the food was served.
Everyone sat around the table.
However, before he started eating, Samir received a call and went out for a while. When he came back, he was holding two beautifully packaged boxes in his hands.
"Uncle, I heard from Nora that you like to smoke. This is the pipe I sent someone to buy from Dunhill headquarters in the UK. It is limited to 500 pieces worldwide. And this is handmade tobacco bought from Italy. I give it to you, uncle. I hope you like it!"
After returning to his seat, Samir handed the gift box containing the pipe and tobacco to Gilberto Mills.
"Yes, Dad, Samir spent a lot of effort to get this!"
Nora Mills' face was full of smiles.
"There are only 500 pieces in the world. How expensive is this? I'm afraid it must be tens of thousands!"
The aunt exclaimed, with a look of surprise and envy.
"The price itself is not that expensive, only 50,000 yuan, but because it is limited, it is difficult for ordinary people to buy it!"
Samir smiled.
"Fifty thousand?"
The aunts of the Mills family were completely shocked.
After returning home, they must check the value of the gifts Samir gave them.
Samir had brought gifts to each of them before, and they looked very valuable.
Samir saw that they only paid attention to the price, but did not hear the sentence behind that ordinary people could not buy it.
This is not just a matter of money, but also about status!
It's a pity that they don't understand, and they can't help but feel a little contempt in their hearts. After all, these relatives of the Mills family are not presentable. After getting married, Nora Mills should cut off contact with them.
The daughter-in-law of the Li family must be noble and elegant!
"You have to keep it well, don't break it!"
Monica Anderson saw that Gilberto Mills didn't seem to like it very much, so she quickly took it for him, full of joy. The son-in-law her daughter found was generous, which really satisfied her.
However, at this time, the aunt looked at Chasel Mills and said sourly: "Samir is very concerned about his father-in-law, but I wonder if someone has prepared any gifts for his return?"
Samir smiled inwardly.
This aunt finally hit the point.
Everyone looked at Chasel Mills.
