NovelOnlineChapter 1060 ‘So there had to be ssecret at least.” "Impossible!" Margaret said firmly, "I have been married to your father for half a lifetime. He might be stubborn and eccentric sometimes, but he never lied to me. He would never hide anything from me! Where on earth did you hear this gossip? What kickboxing secrets could our family have?" "Heather mentioned it. She's adamant that Alex must have a secret handbook containing special skills." Ralph thought of Heather's determined eyes and remembered that she had gotten engaged to him. He wondered if she only did that because of the handbook.

Why is it constantly on her mind?” After a while, Margaret added, "Speaking of Heather, aren't you two getting married next month? "Why isn't there any progress? What else should we arrange? Did you prepare everything? Don't count onto help you prepare!" There was no festive atmosphere at home. It was evident Ralph would marry soon, but the house had no decorations.
After hesitating, Ralph decided to inform his mother, "Our marriage might not happen." He was afraid of irritating her, so he said it intermittently. Still, he knew he could not hide it from her. Heather probably would not marry him and even brought up the issue of equity. She treated this whole thing like a business transaction.
"What?!" Margaret would get angry no matter how he said it. She stared at him so hard that she almost fainted.
Don't worry. It's not a big deal!" He hurriedly stabilized his mother and grinned, wanting to talk this over quickly, "Even if it does work out, it won't end well anyway. It's not like | can't find another partner." "What nonsense are you spewing?” Margaret had never hit him before but was so angry that she suddenly raised her walking stick to smack him.

"How can you even start this bullsh*t? Didn't you just propose yesterday? How can you change your mind so fast? Are you out of your mind? You're embarrassing yourself and your family!” Margaret raised her walking stick again but was reluctant to hit him again-instead, she lightly patted his body.
Ralph did not dodge, knowing she was reluctant to hit him with the walking stick. He said smilingly, "You even know about my marriage proposal? You're still able to keep up with the latest updates.” Margaret was getting old. A few scolds and hand waves had already made her breathless, but she was still angry. "You must be kidding me!” "You're not going to hit me?" Ralph smiled and handed his mother stea. “Have a drink. Just look at yourself. So old yet still so grumpy. Don't be angry; listen to what | have to say first. It's not bad if Heather and | don't get married. | know what | deserve, and it's best not to marry a crazy person, right?"
