When Ellis finished speaking, Joanna felt embarrassed and wanted to get under the table.
She sneaked a glance at Hayden, but Hayden’s face didn’t look any better.
What is this called? This is a Shura field, right?!
“You two have already reached the point where you are talking about getting married?” Hayden didn’t expect the two of them to develop so quickly.
It’s hard to see that Joanna hated marriage so much.
Joanna replied immediately: “No. Ellis is just joking!”
“Haha, yes! I’m pursuing Joanna, but Joanna hasn’t agreed yet.” Seeing that Hayden seemed interested in this topic, Ellis chatted enthusiastically, “Joanna and I are fellow villagers, and our small place is very remote, and very poor. After I came to Aryadelle, this is the first time I met a fellow villager! I feel that I have a special fate with Joanna, and we are about the same age. The most fateful thing is that my mother knew her mother.”
The expression on Hayden’s face was unpredictable. He didn’t look very happy, but he usually seemed to be like this.
“Joanna, what do you think?” Hayden asked.
Joanna’s cheeks were hot, and she said what was in her heart: “Ellis and I are indeed fellow villagers but I just met Ellis and I don’t know much about him yet. He’s too early to talk about marriage.”
“So if you want to get married, you will still consider him, right?” Hayden continued to ask.
Joanna: “I don’t want to get married yet. I told you before that I put my career first. I want to buy a house in Aryadelle and take over my family later.”
Hayden: “It’s just a house. With the current profitability of your dessert shop, you should be able to achieve this goal by the end of the year.”
Joanna: “I hope it goes so smoothly!”
“So if you buy a house at the end of the year, you will consider getting married?” Hayden poured a glass of water from the kettle, seemingly carelessly.
“I don’t know… I won’t know how I feel until I buy a house.” Joanna was very conflicted. She really didn’t think that much about the future.
Before that, she always wanted to do a good job in the dessert shop business, earn some money, and make herself feel better. Unexpectedly, with the help of the Foster family, the business of the dessert shop was settled so quickly.
“Joanna, I am really sincere to you. I didn’t know that you were friends with my boss before, but now that I know, I dare not be careless to you.” Ellis took this opportunity to express his heart to Joanna, “I know I’m a little nervous, but don’t be afraid of me. Next, look at my performance, and you’ll see that I’m not a whim, hothead, and I really want to start a family with you.”
Hayden couldn’t take it anymore. He got up and said, “You guys eat! I still have something to do.”
Hayden just left.
Ellis was taken aback for a moment.
Joanna immediately caught up with Hayden and asked, “Hayden, you just said you have something to do with me, but you haven’t said what it is yet!”
“I brought home the kimchi you brought me, my mother loves it.” These were all excuses; Hayden simply wanted to inquire about Joanna’s progress with Ellis last night. The kimchi didn’t matter now that he knew it was progressing.
“Then next time I go to see Daguoli, bring more.” Joanna said to Hayden in a voice that only the two of them could hear.
Hayden nodded: “If you decide to agree to his pursuit, will you tell him about the child?”
Joanna: “I told him last night, I said I had a baby, and he said he didn’t care.”
Hayden smiled: “Because he doesn’t love you, so he doesn’t care. How can a man who really likes you not care.”
After Hayden finished speaking, he left.
Joanna returned to her seat and sat down.
Ellis asked curiously, “What did you two just say? It seems that you two are very familiar.”
“No.” Joanna thought about what Hayden said just now, and after careful consideration, she felt that it made sense, “Ellis, we can be friends, please don’t do anything beyond the scope of friends. I really don’t think about getting married now thing.”
