Chapter 261: Chapter 261: Being a Dutiful Wife and Loving Mother?
Regarding the downfall of Westmarch’s leading real estate company yesterday and Arthur Lowell’s tragic ordeal, July Quinn was completely unaware.
The only thing she was aware of was that her hands were about to give out today, and she couldn’t concentrate at all.
During the meeting at Wisteria TV, she kept spacing out, cursing Kyle Keaton repeatedly.
However, July Quinn noticed that she wasn’t the only one spacing out during the meeting.
Vivian Lynn was also distracted, and even when the meeting ended, she sat there in a daze.
Seeing Vivian Lynn’s absent-minded look, July Quinn simply approached and handed her a cup of coffee.
"Mr. Lynn, are you daydreaming about married life ahead?"
Vivian Lynn snapped back to reality, took July Quinn’s coffee, and smiled sheepishly, "July, stop teasing me. Whether this wedding can happen is still uncertain."
By the time she spoke the last sentence, Vivian Lynn had lost the sense of happiness she had had yesterday, feeling nothing but bitterness.
July Quinn frowned, "What’s wrong? Meeting the parents didn’t go well yesterday?"
"The man’s family dislikes that I’m three years older than their son."
"Don’t they understand the saying about a woman being three years older? Besides, Mr. Lynn, you’re so outstanding, running a publicly traded company at such a young age, and you occupy a third of the domestic entertainment market."
And if Wisteria TV can capitalize on its current growth trend, it’s not impossible to become the largest entertainment giant in the country within two years.
Overall, July Quinn really admires Vivian Lynn because she has an eye for talent.
But Vivian Lynn became melancholic, "When I started dating him, Wisteria TV hadn’t achieved its current success yet."
Perhaps because of this, the man’s parents always have a sense of superiority in front of Vivian Lynn.
So yesterday, when the wedding was mentioned, not only did the man’s family refuse to pay a single penny for the bride price, they also requested that after marriage, Vivian Lynn hand over Wisteria TV for their son to manage, while she stays home to be a housewife.
Vivian Lynn had fought alongside July Quinn many times, so she didn’t consider July Quinn an outsider and told her all this.
July Quinn got furious right away, "Seriously? How can there still be people who think women should stay home and be housewives these days?"
Moreover, where do they get the nerve to demand Vivian Lynn hand over the publicly traded company she built to their son to manage?
Considering how harsh this sounds, July Quinn didn’t say it directly to Vivian Lynn’s face but instead asked her, "What did the man say? Does he also hope you’ll stay home as a housewife?"
If the man strongly supports his parent’s outdated ideas, wanting Vivian Lynn to stay home as a housewife, then it’s obvious he’s marrying her not for her, but for her company.
Such a jerk should absolutely not get married.
But Vivian Lynn said, "Stephen is okay, he also opposes his parents’ outdated ideas."
Stephen is Vivian Lynn’s current boyfriend.
years old, a returned overseas student, currently unemployed.
However, his parents run a fairly successful chain restaurant business, and he has an unmarried older brother.
When mentioning Stephen, Vivian Lynn’s expression softened a little.
July Quinn could also see that Vivian Lynn must have genuine feelings for Stephen.
So she asked, "Mr. Lynn, do you really plan to stay home as a housewife after getting married?"
Vivian Lynn is a great business partner.
That’s why July Quinn’s development blueprint in Aphelion involved a lot of Vivian Lynn and the Wisteria TV she built.
But if Wisteria TV isn’t under her leadership and Vivian Lynn leaves the management team, everything has to be reconsidered.
From a personal standpoint, July Quinn hopes Vivian Lynn doesn’t become a housewife after marriage.
But if Vivian Lynn is willing to give up her career for love, July Quinn can’t force her to stay.
After all, this is a personal choice.
"I don’t know, I’m a bit bewildered, not sure how to choose." Vivian Lynn expressed as her phone rang right at this moment.
She answered the call and then told July Quinn, "Stephen is here to pick me up."
"Pick you up? Mr. Lynn, where are you going?"
"I haven’t felt well since I woke up today, Stephen is worried and wants to take me to the hospital for a check-up."
"Not feeling well? Are you okay now?" July Quinn seemed concerned, grabbing Vivian Lynn’s wrist, but she was actually taking her pulse.
Then, her brow furrowed slightly.
