Surprised Wife With Twins

Chapter 2175: The Attitude of the Campell Family Elders

Mrs. Campell turned her gaze and exchanged a look with Mr. Campell. "Have a seat," she said softly to Rupert, then gestured for Mr. Campell to make some tea. Despite everything, they still believed in proper hospitality.

The elders wanted to hear his plans for the future, curious about how he intended to repay his massive debts. If a young person could recognize their mistakes and actively seek to correct them, they deserved another chance. After all, Rupert wasn't inherently bad.

However, Rupert couldn't face his problems honestly. He continued to hide and deceive. He wouldn't tell anyone about his gambling debts because he knew no one could help him. If his parents found out, they might even beat him severely!From NôvelDrama.Org.

His only solution now was to marry Summer, let her earn quick money in the entertainment industry, and use her relocation compensation to buy some time.

"Please sit," Mrs. Campell noticed he seemed distracted, guessing what he might be thinking at that moment.

Rupert snapped back to reality, still smiling as he took a seat at the nearby table. Mrs. Campell sat opposite him. Mr. Campell soon brought a pot of tea and poured everyone a cup.

"Rupert, what do you want to say?" Mrs. Campell began the conversation. "Feel free to speak openly; there are no outsiders here. Your uncle and I want to hear your thoughts on the future."

Rupert had been excellent in the past-smart and academically outstanding from a young age, well-liked by neighbors. But lying had become second nature to him over the years, and he owed money not just for a day or two. So he lied effortlessly, without blinking an eye.

"Auntie, I don't plan to go abroad for now. I want to marry Summer first and stay by her side," he said calmly.

Mr. and Mrs. Campell were both taken aback by his words.

Rupert continued, "I've been abroad for years, lacking in companionship and care for her. I feel very guilty about it and have deeply reflected on my mistakes."

Facing his sincere gaze, Mrs. Campell felt a chill in her heart. Were those pieces of evidence fake? She couldn't see any flaws in his demeanor.

But she still smiled, "Is that all? Do you have anything else to say?"

Rupert looked puzzled. What else was there to say?

Their eyes met, and Rupert maintained his facade well.

Since Mrs. Campell had asked, Rupert decided to state his position directly, "The Campell family has no son. Even if Summer marries into our Brightwood family, we will still respect you both as our elders. I will take on the responsibilities of a son and visit you often."

So he wasn't going to mention his gambling debts?

The evidence was too detailed for Mrs. Campell not to believe it.

"Rupert, marriage is a significant matter," she said calmly while holding her teacup. "You haven't been with Summer these past years; you probably haven't had the chance to adjust your living habits or understand each other's interests fully. The process of dating

ve

shouldn't be overlooked, so there's no rush for marriage."

Mr. Campell also spoke up, "Yes, marriage is important; everyone should consider it carefully." This was a father's cautious attitude. Rupert's body stiffened momentarily as his thoughts paused. What did they mean? Had Summer told her parents about wanting to break up? Before he could say more, his phone rang. Seeing it was his mother calling, he excused himself politely and stepped aside to answer it. "Hello, Mom," he said softly after answering the call.

"Son, why don't you invite Mr. and

Mrs. Campell along with Summer for dinner tonight?" Mrs. Brightwood's cheerful voice came through the phone. "Buying a house is such a big deal; we should celebrate properly!"

Standing about four meters away from the elders with his back turned, Rupert's smile vanished instantly upon hearing his mother's words.
