Chapter 303 Are You Crazy
"Mother, his grandmother has already apologized. She didn''t mean to be unkind. Becky said that I
seduced Aron and incited her to go to my office. Her judgement was clouded by Becky''s ttery and
made-up stories, " I exined eagerly about the unpleasant incident. However, it seemed as if Jina
wasn''t listening to her at all. In fact, she didn''t believe I; she thought I was lying.
Aron smiled as he said, "I am sorry for what I had to go through because of my grandmother. I
should have told her that I trusted her and supported her. Aunt Jina, you can put a hit out on me or
shout at me if you want. Whatever you want done with me, I will ept it. All I am asking for is your
permission for taking care of I from now on."
Aron paused for a fraction of a second and then continued, "My grandmother told me the truth as soon
as she woke up. Becky is a scheming woman. She has apologized to I personally the moment she
found out about that. If you''re not willing to let that go, I will do whatever you ask of me, "
Said Aron, as he stared at Jina with imploring eyes. Jina furrowed her eyebrows because Aron''s polite
attitude had caught her off guard. It was hard to say no to a gentleman like Aron. Jina didn''t mind being
his mother-inw. Her resolution to object to Aron and I''s rtionship began to stagger. However,
the fact that I had suffered a lot and had been unhappy all these years made Jina headstrong about
objecting to their union. Aron was the one who abandoned I, so he should be the one to make
efforts to win her back.
Jina took a sip of water while she was thinking about how to punish Aron for I''s hardships.
Before their conversation could continue, the waitress came in to serve the dishes.
As they had the supper, Aron asionally put some food and soup into Jina''s bowls. Jina''s dissent
was slowly driven away by Aron''s consideration, bit by bit.
When they finished eating, Aron asked gently, "Aunt, would you like some dessert or something else?"
"No, " Jina sighed and said, "I am full. There is no need to waste money. It''s not easy for you,
youngsters to earn money."
She had already ordered quite a lot of dishes to air her anger at him. Usually she would order just the
right amount of food needed. There was no use in wasting food as well as money.
Hearing Jina''s words, Aron turned to John and expressed his regret, "Uncle, I am sorry I haven''t been
well in the past few days, so I didn''t have a drink with you. When I recover, I will surely meet you for a
drink."
"That''s okay, " replied John, smiling. It seemed like he had let go of all the negativity from before.
Men were easy to change their attitude towards a person even just after a drink or a cigarette together.
John seldom spoke when they were having supper, but he kept a watchful eye on Aron. No matter how

aggressive Jina was, he didn''t look impatient. The way he endured Jina''s treatment showed just how
much he loved I.
John felt greatly relieved by Aron''s endeavor, so he agreed to give his beloved daughter''s hand to Aron
from the bottom of his heart.
He muttered under his breath, ''Since I loves Aron, I will allow them to be together.''
"A toast?" Jina stared at John with obvious discontent and said, "Drinking is not good for your health.
Even when you regain your health, make sure to drink as little alcohol as possible."
"Okay." Aron said with a nod.
Jina finally got past all the unpleasant memories after seeing such obedience in Aron, although she
remained a little skeptical.
After careful consideration, Jina made up her mind to test Aron''s sincerity.
After taking a sip of water from her cup she asked him, "Have you made up your mind about being with
I?"
"Yes!" said Aron firmly, "Aunt Jina, I would like to be I''s boyfriend and I hope that you will give us
your blessing. Whatever you want me to do, I will do it. I will do as you ask." "
I didn''t force you into anything. This is your deration and I hope that you can keep your promise, "
said Jina with a sneer, "My request is very easy. Have all your property transferred into I''s name. I
mean your car, your house and your shares in yourpany. If you do that, I will have no objections
with your rtionship."
"What! Mother, are you crazy?" Before Aron could reply, I pre-empted him. She cried to her mother,
"Mother, I love him and not his money. Why would you even say something like that? "
Tears of frustration welled up in her eyes. I was worried that Aron would misunderstand her motives.
She loved Aron, just the person, not his money.
"Aron, what she said is not true. I don''t want any of those!" said I, gripping Aron''s hand when she
failed to read his eyes. Aron hesitated for a while and then asked, "I, I want to have a private talk
with your parents. Could you wait outside for some time?"
"No!" I replied with her eyebrows furrowed, "There''s nothing more to talk about! Mother, I will be with
Aron whether you agree or not. If you insist on belittling me like this, you will lose me forever. I won''t
call you mother anymore."
I could feel the tears ready to burst out of her eyes. She was about to storm out of the room when
Aron stopped her. He gave I a hard pull, and urged her to stay. Jina replied to I unhappily, "You
ungrateful girl! What I''ve asked for, is for you own good, right?"
"I, calm down. Stop acting like a baby!" Aron looked emotionless so it was hard to tell what he was
thinking about. He gave I a pat on the shoulder andforted her. "Give us a minute. It''s okay."
"But…" I was persuaded by Aron''s calmness, even though she was worried that her mother would
make things difficult for them.
"What are you worried about? Am I a man-eating monster?" Jina scolded stiffly, "Aron hasn''t refused
my proposal, has he? Why are you so anxious?"
"I, you''d better get some air." John came in to mediate between them, "Don''t worry. I am here. I will
help persuade your mother."
Aron persevered in a private talk. I finallypromised and left them to talk.
I''s eyes were swelling up, so she went to the bathroom to wash her face and calm down. She wasn''t
expecting to run into Autumn. Both of them stood there in amazement. As soon as they got over their
shock, they said in chorus, "What are you doing here?"
Autumn told I that she was here to discuss Chris and Sam''s wedding with his family. Then she
smiled at I and said, "What about you? What are you doing here?"
"I…" I opened her mouth to speak, but before she could, the tears from her eyes streamed down her
face. She had a grievance against her mother. She thought to herself, ''Why do Aron and I have to deal
with such things all the time?
Four years ago, Becky came in between us; four yearster, my mother is stepping in to keep us apart.''
"What has happened? Why are you crying?" Autumn was surprised to see I weeping. Sheforted
I, but she needed to know what had happened.
I didn''t restrain her sadness, because Autumn was her best friend. Within a second she was in
Autumn''s arms, crying her heart out.
Autumn knew something bad had happened. The important thing right now was to wait until I
stopped crying. After I stopped weeping and started to calm down, Autumn asked, "Will you tell me
what has happened now?"
Autumn didn''t force I to give a reply. She led I to the hall, seated her on the sofa, and asked a
ss of water for her before she continued, "Why are you so sad? Did Aron do something wrong? Has
he done something to make you unhappy?"
"No…" I hesitated for a second as she held the hot, disposable ss. Then she finally made a clean
breast of the details about their meeting andined, "Autumn, in your opinion, why did my mother
do that? Is she so unhappy about my rtionship with Aron? Her behavior … has put me in a difficult
situation with Aron."
