My Wife Is So Sweet novel Chapter 620

Chapter 620 Gang up on Me

Her ego never allowed her to cave in.

Even in difficult situations, she would stick to her guns and never give in.

But now, for Max, she was willing to swallow her pride. He couldn't believe she would say such a thing to his mother.

He was greatly touched.

But on the contrary, Christine was furious.

She pointed at them, trembling with anger. "You, you gang up on me!?"

Max frowned.

"Mom, we didn't mean that. You're the one who's holding us back."

Then he murmured.

"We're now in an enlightened world, but you don't seem to be open-minded enough. Are you trying to arrange my marriage?"

"You!"

Max quickly stepped forward and caught his mother when she was about to pass out from anger.

But no sooner than he touched her than he was pushed away.

"Go away!" She shouted, "I raised you better than this! You and this woman ranged against me! Well, since you're so in love, let's see if that's true! Time will tell!"

Then she left in a huff.

Max was worried about his mother leaving like this in anger.

So he said to Laura in a low voice, "I should go check on her."

After Laura nodded, he immediately went after his mother.

Outside the Villa, Christine was about to get in the car.

To her surprise, Max stopped her.

The cool, dignified Max, pouted, in front of his mother, which surprised Jim and the others.

"Max, buzz off!"

"No!" He took her arm and shook his mother, "Mom, don't be mad. We really love each other, and she's the love of my life. If I can't marry her, I'll stay single forever! And you won't have any grandchildren if I become a monk or something."

Christine had to laugh despite herself.

"You? A monk? Don't be ridiculous! Did you forget? You once told me that Lily Thomas was the love of your life. And then you guys broke up. How come you're not a monk now?"

Max was speechless.

Jim and the others, who were standing nearby, burst into laughter.

Max gave them a hard stare and they all stopped laughing immediately.

But with the corners of their lips still twitched, they tried so hard not to laugh.

Max knew that his folly had conveyed a negative impression to his mother.

He knew he was thoughtless before. He didn't really love Lily, but she threw herself to him.

He was single at that time. No man could ever resist the lure of such an attractive beauty.

He sighed with profound resignation at the thought.

Max smiled, holding the door, "You just asked me to propose! So you know...."

Christine was stunned. She exclaimed, "When did I say that?"

The corner of Max's lip lifted.

"Mom, the men in our family, we all have rock-solid integrity. But many people think you're the most capable person, better than any man. Now, you can't go back your own words."

This time Christine paused for a moment and caught on soon. She did seem to say that.

She thought it over and was sure that a woman like Laura who worked in the entertainment industry must be snobby and would never marry a man who had nothing.

So she said, nonchalant, "Fine. I hope you won't regret it. And if you get nothing in the end, don't expect me to help!"

Max said, with a casual wave, "Deal!"

Then Christine left.

After watching the car drive away, he smiled with his eyes narrowed. Then he entered the villa.

Laura was sitting in the living room.

She couldn't tell how great she felt when she said those words to Christine.

But after Christine left, she deeply regretted what she had said and she thought she shouldn't come here in the first place.

She didn't think it through!

Although she hated Christine's snobbish manners, she thought she should put up with it for Max.

Max and his mother fell out over her, so she was overwhelmed by feelings of guilt.
