Mary Perryne said with a smile, "No need to be polite, we are all family here." Correct content is on NovelFire)

Mrs. Summer sighed internally.

If Jean Beckman had seized the opportunity, there wouldn’t be anything to talk about Isla Astir now.

Mrs. Summer looked at Isla Astir and then asked, "Isla, where are you from?"

Isla Astir replied, "I am from South City."

South City?

South City is just a remote small town.

Mrs. Summer had thought Isla Astir’s background was somewhat ordinary, but didn’t expect it to be this ordinary.

She doesn’t even have a Capital City residency.

She wondered what Mandel Thompson saw in Isla Astir.

Mrs. Summer then asked, "What about your parents? What do they do?"

Upon hearing this, Mary Perryne frowned slightly unnoticed.

What exactly does Mrs. Summer mean by this?

She hasn’t even asked Isla these questions yet!

Mrs. Summer was like conducting a household investigation.

Mary Perryne interrupted Mrs. Summer with a laugh, looked at Isla, "Isla, I heard from Brandon that your parents are also in the Capital City. Let them know and whenever they have time, I and Brandon’s dad will go see them."

It’s about marrying off a daughter and welcoming a daughter-in-law.

For such matters, it’s natural that they, on the men’s side, should take more initiative.

Before Isla Astir could speak, Mandel Thompson said with a smile, "Mom, there’s no rush for this matter. Once I have formally met Isla’s parents, I’ll discuss with them, and then notify you."

"What do you mean, no rush?" Mary Perryne gave Mandel Thompson a look, "Aren’t you old enough to understand?!"

Mandel Thompson said helplessly, "It’s useless for just me to be anxious! Don’t you think so, Miss Astir?"

Isla Astir chuckled awkwardly, "Auntie, Brandon is right. After meeting my parents formally, we will discuss further matters."

Upon hearing this, Mary Perryne smiled and asked, "Isla, when do you plan to take our Brandon to meet your parents?"

Isla Astir looked at Mary Perryne, "Auntie, Brandon and I have already discussed this. After visiting you and Uncle, I will take him to meet my parents."

Mary Perryne nodded, her eyes full of satisfaction.

Mrs. Summer was stunned; it looked like Mandel Thompson was really prepared to marry Isla Astir. NovelFire

And, Mandel Thompson was utterly smitten by Isla Astir.

Mrs. Summer said with a smile, "Isla, you are still in university, right?"

"Yes," Isla Astir nodded, "I am currently preparing for my postgraduate studies."

"That’s quite good," Mrs. Summer observed Isla Astir, "Actually for girls, having an undergraduate degree is enough. Our Jean also did a master’s, and after years of studying, she isn’t even thinking about getting married!"

Isla Astir’s expression unchanged, she smiled, "It varies by person. Maybe Miss Jean has other pursuits. As for me, I strive for both love and career successes. When I meet the right person, marriage naturally comes to mind."

Mrs. Summer assumed Isla Astir would just agree with her due to her humble status, but instead, Isla came back with such a response.

It seems that this girl is really something.

It’s all Jean Beckman’s fault for not being competent, otherwise, she wouldn’t have been taken advantage of.

Mrs. Summer also smiled, "Miss Astir is right, it seems our Jean hasn’t met the right person yet."

Having said that, Mrs. Summer looked at Mandel Thompson and continued, "Brandon, how long have you known Miss Astir?"

"Known for two years, been in a relationship for half a year."

Bringing someone home to meet the parents after only half a year of dating.

Mandel Thompson’s decision seems rushed.

In Mrs. Summer’s impression, Mandel Thompson is not someone who acts hastily.

Mrs. Summer said with a smile, "Brandon, Miss Astir is a good girl, you must not let her down."

Pausing, Mrs. Summer continued, "There are too many manipulative young girls nowadays, since you chose Miss Astir, you must be faithful, and not leave halfway, getting distracted by other women."

What does it mean to be faithful?

Mrs. Summer is indirectly warning Mandel Thompson that, despite Isla Astir being extraordinary, she is still a woman from an unknown background.

Jean Beckman grew up with Mandel Thompson, they are the most suitable couple in this world.

Mary Perryne didn’t like hearing this; after all, in front of Mrs. Summer, Mandel Thompson is a junior and must be cautious with his words, but she doesn’t have to.

Mary Perryne smiled lightly, "Brandon, did you hear that? Aunt Summer is advising you to remain loyal. You must not mistreat Isla or let her down. Let bygones be bygones. Not every girl is Isla, nor does everyone deserve your love."
