Ranaway From Wedding, Fell into Tycoon's Love Trap-Chapter 534: One in Ten Thousand
In the moment their eyes met, both of them were stunned.
Michael Linton was only taken aback for a moment before he shifted his gaze away from Sophia Wood and naturally turned to Christopher Turner. "It’s nothing."
As he spoke, he nodded slightly at the other party.
Christopher Turner also nodded back at Michael Linton without saying anything, because what Sophia Wood had just said made him extremely uncomfortable, yet he tried to maintain a calm exterior.
He didn’t return to sit by her side but instead took a seat not far from her.
"You all can handle the wedding matters as you see fit. I’ve made the decision on this. If you need my cooperation, feel free to let me know." As soon as Christopher Turner sat down, he spoke, and this time his attitude and tone were particularly firm and assertive, leaving no room for Sophia Wood, who was seated beside him, to question.
Even though Christopher Turner was trying his best to stay calm on the surface, Sophia Wood knew he was very, very angry right now. As for why he was so angry, she understood perfectly.
She was very dissatisfied with the decision he made, but she couldn’t say anything. To be precise, she didn’t dare oppose him. He was already very, very angry.
If she said something, she was certain that he would explode at her in front of others.
Due to the earlier incident, Michael Linton didn’t dare look at Sophia Wood again, but he didn’t miss the opportunity Christopher Turner offered, and he casually responded, "Thank you all for your support."
He deliberately chose to say "Thank you all" instead of "Thank you" to avoid making someone feel too suffocated.
"Of course." 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖
Christopher Turner didn’t think much of it; he only assumed the other party was being polite with him.
Michael Linton didn’t continue to dwell on the support issue with Christopher Turner. He glanced at Easton Holmes and Lily Turner, then spoke again, "Regarding the bride price..."
"What bride price? We are marrying off our daughter, not selling her." Christopher Turner interrupted him anxiously before he could finish.
As soon as Christopher Turner finished speaking, Sophia Wood rolled her eyes at him, but he didn’t even glance in her direction, rendering her eye roll pointless.
"That’s true, but the bride price should still be given." Michael Linton could tell that Christopher Turner wasn’t just being polite with him or being stubborn with anyone; he genuinely rejected the idea of taking their bride price.
Upon hearing this, Christopher Turner thought for a moment before saying, "Since you put it that way, I won’t say much more. Didn’t everyone always say ’one in a million’? Just give one hundred thousand and one dollars then."
He had heard this from someone by chance, and he didn’t expect it to be useful now.
"One hundred thousand and one dollars? That’s too little."
Michael Linton immediately responded. Although it’s a nice sentiment, wouldn’t it seem too shabby? Their family didn’t lack that money, and it was quite far from the amount they had agreed upon beforehand.
Before Christopher Turner could respond, Easton Holmes, who had been silent for a while, suddenly spoke up, "Let’s go with that. I think it’s great."
’One in a million,’ what a wonderful meaning, he genuinely liked it.
"Since Easton thinks it’s good, then so be it."
How could Michael Linton not understand what Easton Holmes meant? He knew his nephew favored the idea of ’one in a million,’ and he had to agree that talking about money at this moment seemed too vulgar.
