Chapter 181
Daisy grasped her chest. 'What is he talking about?'
'Just for this woman? He could say anything. Is he being enchanted?'
Daisy suddenly felt that she didn't know Xavier.
'Why did he seem to have changed?'
'What was good about this woman?'
She remembered when he was with Harriet, he hadn't acted toughly like this.
Daisy felt that if she continued to talk to Xavier, she would definitely die of anger.
"I can't control you. Do whatever you want." Daisy stood up and was about to leave.
Bridget held her back. "Mom, you can't leave. We haven't made it clear yet."
Daisy waved Bridget's hand away. "Let go. Do you think he will listen to me?"
"Then you don't want your grandson either? Don't forget, he was born by her. If you don't agree to let
her in, then you should give her your grandson. Are you willing to do it?" Bridget didn't let go.
Daisy was so furious. "You want to piss me off, too. You think I have lived long enough, right?"
Bridget patiently helped Daisy sit on the sofa, "Mom, don't worry."
As she spoke, Bridget glanced at Xavier as if she was saying, "leave it to me."
She really didn't want to help Xavier but wanted Arya to marry him.
So that she would have the chance to be with Jasper.
"Do you think whether a hidden marriage is a good idea?"
"No!"
"No way."
The former was Xavier, the latter Daisy.
They almost refused at the same time. Daisy still didn't want them to get married, even though it was a
hidden marriage.
Xavier could not accept it, too. He couldn't bear that his wife and son had to be hidden from the public.
What he wanted was to give Arya her due status. Hidden marriage was never an option for him.
"Are you that idle?" Xavier said coldly. Her suggestion was totally useless.
If Bridget hadn't had her own purpose, she wouldn't have said that.
She glared at Xavier. "Don't be so ungrateful."
"Tell me about it." Daisy wanted to hear what she want to say.
Now that they were stuck in a stalemate, it was better to listen more about it. If it didn't work, they
wouldn't lose anything.
"A hidden marriage. Outsiders don't know about her relationship with our family, so naturally, we aren't
afraid that her identity will be taken as a threat."
In addition, to satisfy Bridget's needs, this suggestion was also good for Xavier.
Instead of not giving in to each other like this, it would be better for them to compromise.
Daisy thought for a while and felt that it was not impossible. She wouldn't be able to persuade Xavier. It
was better to give way and let them get married secretly. No one knew that Arya was their daughter-in-
law.
So she would have nothing to do with the Jones Family.
Daisy thought it through and looked at his son. "A hidden marriage, that's all I can accept."
Xavier refused. He had to give Arya the name of his wife in front of everyone.
"No..."
"Let's take it."
Arya interrupted Xavier's refusal and held his hand to stop him from talking. There was nothing wrong
with a hidden marriage. As long as Ryan could have a family, it didn't matter what others thought about
her.
Arya looked at Daisy. "Daisy, just as you said. I agree to a hidden marriage."
Xavier was reluctant and kept a straight face. But he knew that if he continued to argue, it might push
Arya into a dilemma.
Daisy sighed slightly.
She was also very tired these days.
Although this was not her ideal result, it was indeed the best way. Looking at Xavier and Arya, she said,
"You will live here after marriage. You can decide the date of your marriage. When the time comes, we
will have dinner together."
Daisy stood up from the sofa, looking somewhat tired. Bridget also stood up. "I'll help you to have a
rest."
Daisy nodded and took Bridget's hand to leave the living room. Before Bridget left the living room, she
glanced at Xavier.
and put on a big smile at him. Xavier ignored her. He was not in a good mood now.
Arya sensed that Xavier was dwelling on it. She held his hand and smiled at him. "It's my first time at
your house. Won't you show me around?"
Arya actually didn't want to visit the house. She just wanted to find a topic to talk to Xavier and didn't
want him to be upset.
Xavier glanced at her and saw through her thoughts as she spoke. Understanding her intentions, he
felt so sorry for her. He stood up and pulled her up, "I'll show you my room."
Before Arya could respond, he dragged her upstairs. Arya had to follow him upstairs.
Although Xavier didn't have much time at home, there were both bedrooms and study rooms for him.
In black and white, his rooms looked simple and clean, calm and stylish.
Xavier held her in his arms and whispered in her ear, "Sorry."
"I'm already grateful that I could give Ryan a home."
Arya looked out the window and thought that this might be a good start.
Xavier let go of Arya, took a step back, and distanced himself from her.
Arya didn't know what he was doing. Seeing that his face was strange, she was even more confused.
She asked, "What's wrong with you?"
Xavier looked at her for a few seconds before he said, "Are you with me just to give Ryan a home?"
'If she only wants to give Ryan a home, what does she think of him? He was just a necessity in this
family? Did she marry him just because Ryan needs a father?'
Arya took a step back and leaned against the door, quietly looking at Xavier.
Undeniably, there was such a reason.
She wanted to give Ryan a family.
But that didn't mean that she had no feelings for Xavier at all.
Arya grabbed his neck and said mischievously, "Then be nice to me and let me fall in love with you..."
'Let me believe in love and believe in you...'
Xavier lowered his eyes and looked at her with both hands. He grabbed her waist and pressed her
body against his.
Arya felt awkward. This was her first time at his home. If anyone saw the scene, she would be
embarrassed. Arya pushed him. "Let me go."
Xavier did not let go and looked down at her. "Am I good to you?"
Arya blushed. 'This man...'
"It's my first time here. It's not good if others see... Mmm..."
Xavier kissed her lower lip. "No one will see."
As soon as he finished speaking, the door was knocked on.
Xavier paused. 'Who is so unobservant?'
Arya pushed him away with a smile as if to say, "see?"
"Xavier."
"Daddy, mommy."
Bridget and Ryan's voices came from outside the door.
Arya opened the door.
Bridget casually carried Ryan in without noticing their expressions. She sat on the sofa and let Ryan sit
on her lap, teasing him, "Ryan, don't be like your father. He's so ungrateful."
She said it on purpose in front of Xavier. If it weren't for her idea, their marriage would have been
delayed.
Xavier was not stupid. He took Ryan over and glanced at her, "Do you think your idea is good?"
This idea was not good for him at all. Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
He didn't want a hidden marriage. He wanted it to be aboveboard.
"Isn't it good? My sister-in-law, do you think this is a good idea?" Bridget took Arya's arm affectionately.
Arya didn't know how to respond once she heard Bridget call her Arya.
However, Xavier was happy about her words. His tone was a little lighter, "Well, what do you want from
me?"
Bridget was so attentive that Xavier didn't believe that she did it for him. Bridget and he didn't spend
much time together since their childhood, but they were all born by the same mother and knew about
her personality.
Bridget acted coquettishly. " Xavier, I want to talk to Arya alone."
Xavier could not help but frown. "What are you going to say?"
