Chapter 422 A Secret Marriage
The hall sounded Theodore's eager voice, "Dad, wait, wait, wait! Let's talk about it." "How to talk?" Laird looked at him.
"Marriage is OK, but can we have a baby after we cultivate a relationship, since now..." "Now that you can get married, aren't you supposed to have a kid?" Laird said. "But..."
"Don't you want to talk?" Laird looked sulky.
Theodore didn't have the courage. He dared not to contradict everything his father said.
He winked at Oscar.
Didn't Oscar promise to help him?
'Oscar, don't play dumb at such a critical time. The happiness of your homie was going down the drain!' Theodore screamed silently. When Oscar caught his eyesight, he put down his teacup and turned to Laird.
"You can't force Theodore so hard, Uncle Laird." Said Oscar.
"If I don't teach him a lesson this time, he will act foolishly again!" Laird was exasperated at Theodore's failure to make good. "That's true." Oscar agreed.
"Oscar," Theodore could not help calling to him.
"Who told you to call Master Oscar by his name?" Laird said coldly.
Theodore dared not speak again.
"I think Uncle Laird's arrangement is very reasonable." Oscar said.
"I'm not your brother, am I?" Theodore shouted to Oscar, and he was on the verge of total derangement.
"Shut up!" Laird angrily scolded his son.
Theodore felt wronged. He couldn't figure out why he had dug a tomb of marriage for himself through a one-night love. "The wedding is scheduled for the sixth day of next month. And you must keep the baby." Laird made that decision. Theodore dared not speak at all.
"Your name is Little Bunny, right?" Laird turned to look at her.
She was all at sea.
Didn't she have to have an abortion today?
But now she was going to ruin her future. If she had known it was going to be like this, she might as well have followed that sneaky man's unspoken rules that night. "Yes." Little Bunny quickly answered because she was afraid of the prestige of the Wold family.
"Where is your home, and who are there in your family? Tell your family that we will go to your house tomorrow to talk about the marriage." Laird said as if it was a final decision.
"Mr Wold," Little Bunny hesitated for a long time, then plucked up the courage to call Laird.
"Yeah?" Laird replied. Compared with his attitude towards Theodore, he was gentler now.
"I'm not on good terms with my family for personal reasons. And I'm not from Kensbury City. My hometown is a small county. My parents didn't support me in being an actress and thought I overextended myself, so I hadn't contacted my family for a long time." She explained.
"Go on," Laird said with a poker face.
"The baby, do we have to keep it?" Although she felt guilty for losing a life, she was not great enough to have her child for someone she did not like.
"Yes, you do." Laird gave a positive answer.
"How about not getting married?" Little Bunny asked in a tentative voice.
Laird frowned slightly for he did not expect her to make so many requirements.
Although he didn't have a prejudice against Little Bunny, he probably had an idea about what kind of women who hung out with Theodore were. Commonly speaking, one would have no reason to reject the marriage with Theodore, given his identity. Thus, Little Bunny's rejection made Laird somewhat curious about this girl.
"I mean, I'll give you the baby, but I won't marry Master Wold" Little Bunny saw Laird did not speak, and quickly explained.
"So you mean that you want to leave your child without a mother when it is born?" There was a disapproving look on Laird's face.
Little Bunny bit her lips.
She did think she would be too selfish to do so.
Hearing Laird's words, she felt ashamed.
"I will not allow such things to happen, so the marriage must be done." Laird was determined.
Little Bunny was afraid she would be killed if she did not do what they wanted, so she dared not refute again.
She turned to look at Theodore, who usually showed off his strength outside. However, he was on his knees and dare not say a word now. From his performance, she can imagine how powerful Laird was. After a few quiet seconds, Laird asked, "Any more questions? If there is no problem, on the sixth day of next month... "
"Mr Wold," Little Bunny summoned up courage again.
"Anything else?" Out of expectation, Laird did not get annoyed by her.
"I was just saying that my parents and I are not on good terms, so I don't want to go back to see them."
"Do you mean we don't have to talk about the marriage with them?"
"I mean since neither of my parents is going to be there, can we cancel the banquet, and can I have a secret marriage with Master Wold?" Little Bunny asked.
Laird frowned.
"Dad, you asked us to get married and have a kid and we said yes. Would you also agree to our request? She and I are not familiar with each other, in case we can't live together, I said in case, of course, we also want to give the baby a happy family, but who knows, we two fit or not? If we can't go on, the secret marriage will hurt each other less."
Laird thought but did not speak.
Theodore and Little Bunny kept silent, just waiting for Laird to say the word.
After a while, Laird drank a mouthful of tea and said, "All right. This matter depends on you."
Little Bunny and Theodore were relieved. As long as it was off the record, it would be easier to get a divorce later without any gossip.
"But there are some things I want to stress." Laird had a commanding presence.
"First, since there is no wedding, you will go to get the marriage certificate tomorrow. Tomorrow is also a good day. Second, Little Bunny will move here and live in the same room with Theodore from today. I will arrange for someone to pick up her things later. Third, Theodore must go home before 6 o'clock every night..."
"Six o'clock is too early!" Theodore continued, "You don't know, dad. Our nightclub won't be open until 7:00 pm. If I'm back at six, what about my job?"
"Don't fool me here. I know all you do there is drinking and picking up girls, and when have you ever run a business? I'll arrange for someone else to take care of it." Laird said coldly.
Theodore was disgruntled, "Then what could I do, eat at home every day?"
