Translator: 549690339
Within just a few days, Suri Drew had gotten used to being taken care of by him.
Sherry Woods looked at Suri’s expression and saw her daughter’s happiness, which showed how well Yigol Novak had taken care of her.
However, she was well aware that her daughter was too beautiful.
Sherry was very beautiful when she was young, and her daughter was even more beautiful than her.
During her youth, Suri’s father was very good to Sherry, so good that she was willing to break with her family to be with him. But in the end, all she got was betrayal.
But she couldn’t prevent her daughter from seeking happiness just because of her own misfortune, nor could she make her daughter not trust any man.
As Yigol had said, no matter how good he spoke, it was not trustworthy, and only time could tell the truth. She couldn’t jump to conclusions too soon.
One thing was certain: Suri and Yigol were happy together now.
Sherry Woods hesitated for a moment and said, “Indeed, except for time, I can’t believe any promises you make.”
“You know my daughter has her own company, right? She’s not very rich, but she’s doing pretty well. I have to tell you, everything she has today is due to her own ability. You’re a man; shouldn’t you at least be able to support your woman?”
“You said you come from the countryside, what’s your job?”
“I… I’m a deliveryman.” Yigol Novak answered truthfully.
Sherry’s face changed instantly upon hearing this. It wasn’t that she looked down on a deliveryman; however, it seemed like her daughter and this man were entirely different. Had her daughter been bewitched? How could she end up with such a guy?
Suri was speechless, wondering if Yigol brought up his delivery job just to upset her mother.contemporary romance
But strictly speaking, there was no problem; Yigol’s legitimate occupation had been a deliveryman for quite some time.
As for other jobs, they couldn’t be considered proper work, but the income he gained from them was enough for her to survive for a year from just one day’s worth.
Sherry looked at Yigol and tried to speak several times, but stopped. Obviously, she was dissatisfied with Yigol’s capability, but she was afraid of upsetting her daughter by bringing it up.
Yigol didn’t seem like he was lying, as it was unlikely for someone to lie so naturally.
“You say you’re a deliveryman? Do you have any other businesses? Everyone says that a poor couple has a hundred sorrows. How are you going to treat my daughter well? It may be a bit abrupt for me to ask, but as a mother, I want my daughter to live a good life. So please, answer me honestly.” Sherry asked.
“Mom, what are you doing?” Suri hurriedly tried to stop her mother.
Yigol had more than enough money to last them several lifetimes, and she was very curious about where it came from. However, being questioned like this didn’t feel right, and she didn’t want Yigol to feel uncomfortable.
Yigol shared when he felt like it, and their life together was more straightforward if they kept things simple.
“Supporting Suri is definitely not a problem. Don’t laugh at me for saying this, Ms.”
“When I was in school, I won the lottery and saw that several properties were quite cheap. I bought them without really caring about management and rented them out. Over the years, I’ve collected a lot of rent. I don’t have much else to do, so I work as a deliveryman to pass the time.”
“To be honest, I’m not a person with much ambition. Money is just something that’s nice to have, and I don’t have much passion for building a career. I find it more interesting to cook for Suri every day, do laundry, and handle other household chores.”
Sherry had nothing to say about that; people had different pursuits in life. Some were born with a career drive, while others preferred the warmth of family. Suri was a career-oriented woman, and Yigol was her exact opposite, making them complementary.
“So, have you been relying on the rent from those properties all this time?”
Upon hearing that Yigol owned a few properties, Sherry’s worries disappeared. It wasn’t that she cared about wealth; he needed to at least have the ability to provide for his family.
She even started feeling like what people say was true – a mother-in-law would come to see her son-in-law as more and more suitable over time.
Yigol came from a rural family, just like Suri’s father, which triggered Sherry’s sensitivities.
However, after hearing Yigol’s story, she felt that he was more reliable than her ex-husband.
Her expectations for her son-in-law were not high; all she wanted was for him to provide, at the very least, a decent life. If Yigol had been some rich family’s son, she would have worried more about his sincerity towards her daughter.
“I didn’t think much when buying those properties as I was young and didn’t consider all the factors. Over time, the area’s property prices surged, so I made some moves. Now I have eleven properties managed by Suri. I was young then, had a lot of guts, and I guess my luck wasn’t too bad, either.”
“As things are now, barring any disasters, we should never have to worry about food and drink again.”
“Later, I heard that stocks could make a lot of money. I had some spare cash, so I dabbled in that too. Surprisingly, I had good luck and a knack for it, and I made a lot of money. None of these can be considered my job, except for delivery, which is my actual work.”
“I don’t have a strong desire for a career. In my opinion, in a two-person household, only one person need have a career drive. Suri loves to work and be independent, so I can stay at home taking care of the house and her. This way, she can focus on developing her interests.”
“If one day she’s tired, she’ll come home to a warm meal waiting for her. If she wants to go out, I have the means to take her on trips and such. In short, I
respect her wishes. I won’t restrict her in any way, and I will support whatever she wants to do.”
“I will be her rock. Money, possessions, anything she likes – as long as I have it, I can give it to her.”
The more Sherry listened, the more she liked Yigol, and Suri was deeply moved as well.
Yigol gave a very down-to-earth impression, and his words were earnest, making them more credible without sounding extravagant.
Especially for Suri, she could clearly feel how considerate Yigol had been to her throughout their time together. It wasn’t an act; it came naturally.
Naturally, all of this was based on Yigol’s financial strength; otherwise, words alone wouldn’t be enough..
