If Julian didn’t answer, his father and mother would fly over on a private plane right away and propose marriage to the Caron
family. The problem was that he hadn’t confessed his love to Kiera yet, and Kiera would be frightened if his parents came over to
propose marriage.
After getting along with his destined girl for a while, he fell deeply in love with her. Because of his deep love, he was afraid of
scaring her.
He was not afraid of anything, but he was definitely a weakling in front of Kiera. He was afraid of this and that.
“When can your mom and I go meet your in-laws, Julian? We’ve prepared nice gifts more than once for the marriage proposal.
As soon as your mom and I realize something is missing, we will make a kind and generous gift and promise to make the
marriage proposal.”
Mr. Bucham was really anxious.
Julian’s age is forty if rounded up. Like Duncan, he was an older, leftover man in Wiltspoon. Can he not be anxious?
Julian said, “Dad, I haven’t confessed my love to Kiera yet; why are you proposing a marriage?”
Mr. Bucham scolded: “How long has it been and you haven’t confessed to her yet? What’s going on? Does she like someone?
Or do you dare not confess?”
Julian: “Dad, you think it’s been a long time, but actually it’s not that long. It’s been less than a month since I came to Yonsburg.
Kiera considers me a friend, but I am unable and unwilling to declare my affection for her. We need to spend more time together
before we can confess our feelings.”
Mr. Bucham on the other end of the phone said, “Where is your courage? It’s been raining red today, and you, Julian, are
sometimes scared. Others dare to confess their love at first sight. You and my future daughter-in-law know each other. It’s been
two or three months, and you still don’t dare to confess your love. Julian, you don’t want to hold your wife, but your dad and I still
want to hold our grandson.”
Julian: “Dad, I think so too. I’m just afraid that Kiera won’t be able to accept it after knowing my feelings for her. She has a rather
masculine personality and likes to treat men as buddies. Besides, I’m so many years older than her.”
Mr. Bucham: “Age is not a problem. If you don’t confess to her, she won’t know your feelings for her, so she will treat you as a
buddy. If you confess, she will know how you feel about her, and she will no longer treat you as a dude. Our future daughter-in-
law is so kind. If you don’t act quickly, someone else will take her away, and you’ll then go home and cry.
Arrange a place for me and your mother to live. We will go to Yonsburg in two days. We wanted to go last time, but you
persuaded us. Your mother and I could only resist disturbing you, but it’s useless. If your mother and I don’t add fuel to the
flames, the New Year will be coming soon, and when the New Year is over, you will be one year older. You are not in a hurry; we
are.”
The main reason was that Julian had such a disease. Apart from Kiera, who could make Julian a normal man, Kiera was the only
one who could save Julian. If Kiera is not married into the Bucham family for one day, Mr. Bucham and his wife will not be able to
rest at ease.
If Kiera fell in love with someone else and married someone else, Julian would have to be a bachelor for the rest of his life.
Alas, Mr. Bucham and his wife were also ordinary parents who had to worry about their children.
Julian: “There is still more than a month before the New Year.
More than a month has gone by in the blink of an eye. Do you think more than a month is very long? Once the new year is over,
you are waiting for the new year again. The days are passing by like this. If you don’t hurry up, in the blink of an eye, you will
become an old man with gray hair. Look, who still likes you, old man?”
Julian: “...”
His dad was going too far with his talk.
Julian was not yet forty years old and was in the prime of life. According to his father, he has already become an old man.
“Husband, give me your phone, and I’ll talk to Julian.” Mrs. Bucham on the side also wanted to scold Julian.
Julian quickly said to his father, “Dad, I’m still busy. The branch has just been established, and I have to deal with many things.
Tell my mom that I will talk to her on the phone another day when I am free.”
After saying that, Julian hung up the phone.
