So, Douglas was not worried at all how different Martha was now from Martha in the past seven years.
On the contrary, he was willing to use his future life to see clearly what Martha will look like.
He was looking forward to it, but not in a hurry.
Martha said, “I think, you’d better think about it…”
She was already very happy being able to stay with Douglas. Even if she may not be able to go on in the future, she was already joyful because of what she once had at this moment.
She had never thought about marriage, nor did she dare to think about it.
Douglas said, “We’re always going to get married. Although for me, there will be no difference between being married now and ten years later, I want you to know that no matter what you think or what others think, I want to be with you. I’ve never thought of being separated from you again.”
Martha’s eyes were red again. She was afraid to look into Douglas’ eyes, so she lowered her eyes and said in a hoarse voice, “I’m really afraid that you’ll regret it.”
Douglas sighed secretly, understanding her uneasiness. It was his fault that he didn’t give her absolute sense of security.
However, it didn’t matter. He’ll use the rest of his life to give her the sense of security.
Douglas said, “I’ll not force you. I just tell you what I think. You can choose to agree, or choose to tell me when you want to marry me.”
Martha sniffed, raised her eyes, looked at Douglas with firmness, “I do.”
After Ash got his keys back from Douglas, he was very ostentatious.
He went to look at the houses one by one, and finally chose the Maple Street Apartment.
The reason was very simple. It was just opposite Homelux.
Ash asked someone to come over and clean it inside and out. After that, he moved in with a very good mood.
After settling these things, he was going to meet his girl and tell her the news that he moved here.
He just didn’t know if she’ll be happy or not.
However, as soon as Ash took out his phone, someone was calling him.
When he saw the caller clearly, Douglas immediately rolled his eyes.
Now that he had taken the keys back, he was naturally not afraid that Douglas will trip him up again.
In addition, because of Aimee, Ash will not be caught and go back to inherit the family business, so he became even more smug.
He deliberately didn’t answer the phone, just to annoy Douglas.
It was because he always bullied his younger brother.
However, Ash didn’t know that Douglas was in such a good mood today. No matter how noisy he was,
Douglas would not be angry.
Finally, on the third call from Douglas, Ash answered.
He purposely said, “What are you doing? Why are you so annoying? Don’t you know if I’m busy, I don’t have time to answer the phone?”
According to Ash’s vision, when Douglas heard what he said, he would definitely be furious, and most likely hung up the phone directly.
However, what he expected did not happen.
Ash heard Douglas’ delighted voice, with a hint of flaunt that he couldn’t hide, and a smugness that annoyed him.
Douglas said, “But I have a good news to share with you.”
Ash immediately became alarmed, presupposing very instinctively that something serious was going to happen to Douglas, and it may be the kind of thing that would buzz his head.
In an instant, Ash sat up straight, clenched the phone tightly, and looked defensive.
He didn’t even want to ask what the good news was.
However, Douglas never gave him the chance to escape.
Douglas said, “Let me tell you, your eldest brother is getting married, so you must go back to Torres’
Mansion tonight.”
Ash was dumbfounded, unable to believe what he had heard.
He had quickly imagined all the possibilities in his mind just now, but he didn’t have this one.
However, soon, Ash thought of the woman he had seen at Douglas’ place.
He can only sigh that Douglas was really hiding too well.
For such a thing, there was no sign at all.
He had been nagged by his mother many times, and she had been asking him if his elder brother was a gay. Otherwise, why had he never had a girlfriend?
Now it seemed that their mother was overthinking.
Ash said, “You are really good, Douglas. How do you quietly have a girlfriend and be suspected of being gay?”
Douglas was not at all unhappy because of Ash’s words, but said, “If I let you know, can I still be your brother?”
Ash was struck dumb.
But he didn’t really understand what he was so proud of.
Douglas said, “I just want to let you know that you can’t give me any lame excuses for not coming back.”
Ash was helpless. Although he really wanted to find an excuse not to go, since it was a major event in his elder brother’s life, he was not so ignorant.
“Don’t worry. I’ll be back,” he said.
Douglas was very satisfied, and it could be heard that he was very happy from his tone.
Ash said, “However, don’t get me wrong. I just go back to celebrate it. Don’t you use this as an excuse to let me take your place.”
Douglas was at a loss for words.
How could his younger brother be so annoying? He was really mad at him.
However, he felt really good today.
Before hanging up the phone, Douglas said, “Since you have mentioned this, let me give you a suggestion. You can bring your little girlfriend back to divert their attention. Otherwise, I can promise not to squeeze you, but, there is no guarantee that others will agree.”
After speaking, Douglas hung up the phone.
Ash was confused.
He really felt that Douglas was annoying.
However, Ash seriously thought about the suggestion given by Douglas.
This method was very tempting.
However, for Ash, he still had to put the girl’s thoughts first.
For this kind of thing, he always had to ask her opinion.
Ash directly dialed Mikayla’s number, and as soon as he connected, he heard the girl’s lifeless voice.
His heart skipped a beat in an instant, and he quickly asked, “What happened?”
He was worried that she was sick again.
Fortunately, he just heard Mikayla murmuring, “Ash, I’m so bored.”
Mikayla undoubtedly wanted to find something to do now, but what was worse was that she didn’t want to go out alone.
Ash breathed a sigh of relief when he heard her say that, but at the same time he found it flabbergasted.
He said, “Why don’t you call me when you’re bored?”
Mikayla said, “I don’t know if you’re busy. I dare not disturb you.”
Saying that, Mikayla felt aggrieved. On the one hand, she felt that she was really gentle, considerate, sensible and cute. On the other hand, she felt that she was really miserable.
Ash felt a little distressed when he heard her say that.
He said, “Mikayla, you don’t need to think so much. You know, whenever you come to me, I’ll have time.”
Mikayla was instantly happy when she heard Ash’s words.
She curled her lips and said, “But, Ash, if you’re like this, won’t you indulge me too much?”
She knew very well that this was Ash’s preference for her.
How can anyone really have time no matter what time it was?
Ash said, “I’m happy about that.”
Mikayla was not stupid. As a high IQ student, her EQ and LQ were not affected by her high IQ.
On the contrary, she was very keen in these aspects.
Mikayla hadn’t thought about it that much all along. On the one hand, it was because she was young, and on the other hand, she didn’t dare truly think about it.
But, now that Ash had said that, Mikayla would be foolish if she didn’t understand.
She said, “Well, since you’re happy about that, I want you to come to me now.”
Ash said, “Why don’t I give you an address and you come and find me?”
Mikayla tilted her head and thought about it, but it was not impossible.
