Chapter 1272
The person who spoke paused for a moment before going on to say, “Looks like you don’t like the sound of it, Langdon. Regardless,
everything I said is true. L is your only child, and this is the only time when you can ask for a bridal price. If you don’t state a price now,
there will be no other opportunity for it.”
Someone else next to her chimed in as well. “What did the other family say? Is everything settled? Did you set the wedding date already?
Even if they’re not buying you a house, they have to give you a car. It’s inconvenient to take a cab into the city with this distance.”
“That’s right. You’ll have to ask for all of this, including a house and a car. These are all just the basics. In addition, you spent so much on
bringing up your daughter, so you can’t just give her away in vain without asking for a reasonable bridal price. Just the other day, I heard that
Donnie’s daughter is getting married and he asked for tens of thousands in bridal price. That’s just the bridal price; the house and car are not
included in it. Your L isn’t any better than his daughter, so you have to ask for this at the very least. You should call off the wedding if
they’re not agreeable to it. Even if it’s difficult for a man to get a wife, a woman should be married off well.”
The gossip mongers went on one after another, and Fiona really doubted if they were really just being considerate for L. Pursing her lips
and keeping her silence, all traces of a smile were long gone from her face.
All they cared about was shooting their mouths off for their own pleasure withplete disregard for Fiona’s attitude. Initially, she thought
that they would give up if she didn’t say a thing, but they ended up talking endlessly.

In the end, they even urged her to call L to ask Logan to buy a house in full payment under L’s name before even considering the
marriage.
Still keeping her silence, Fiona spun around and went into her yard, but the crowd followed behind her relentlessly.
In the house, Langdon mmed a door loudly to show his irritation, and they all could immediately tell from that moment that he was
unhappy. Hence, they stood in the yard, afraid to step into the house.
Despite that, they kept appearing to be concerned for the Hunts. “It’s true! You really have to think about all these. They will ignore you if you
bring this up after the wedding. You’ll have to bring this up when they’re asking for her hand in marriage.
That family is so rich, anyway. So, what’s the problem if you ask for all these?” Fiona dismissed them. “Just go home, all of you. I’m kind of
tired now. I’d like to take a nap. You’ve all spent a long time staring outside, so you should just go home now and get along with your own
business.” Without waiting for a response, she turned and entered the house, mming the door shut behind her. She didn’t care how they
would look at her and went straight into her bedroom. As Langdon had had a little to drink, he was now lying in bed with his eyes closed
when she took a seat in the chair nearby. “What’s wrong with these people? Do they really think I can’t hear from their words that they can’t
wait to ruin L’s marriage? They’re just a bunch of distasteful people who can’t stand to see others being well off.” Langdon snorted. “All
you women know is to meddle in other people’s affairs all day long. You don’t even know how to live your lives properly, and yet you’re
keeping your eyes on other people’s lives. Clearly, there’s a problem with your brains.
” Pouting, Fiona refuted, “I’m an exception because I don’t meddle with other people’s affairs.” With his eyespletely closed as though he
was about to fall asleep, Langdon continued, “Earlier during lunch, the Jeffersons already said that they will hold an especially grand
wedding. When that timees, let’s see how the looks on their faces would be. I’m just waiting to see their shocked faces.” “That’s true.”
Fiona nodded in agreement. “The more they’re watching, the better we should live our lives. We’ll see who will be the joke in the end.”
Langdon decided not to speak anymore as he shifted into a morefortable position and fell asleep. On the other hand, Fiona was unable to
fall asleep from the anger. A few minutester, she got up and went outside again. .
