BXBX NOVEL Chapter 598 - Weird Question
"William, wait a minute. Do you know the meaning of Mama-in-law?" Oscar asked after he had been silent for a long time.
"Yes, of course I know, Pa! Mama-in-law is the mother of the girl I will marry one day!"
Hearing that made Lisa even more lost for words. She really didn\'t know if the boy in front of her was a 4 year old child or an 18 year old teenager.
Lisa was even more annoyed and curious about the name of William\'s girlfriend. Gosh, this little man saying he had a girlfriend was already baffling for her!
"Hurry up and tell Mama what\'s your girlfriend\'s name." Lisa said firmly.
"Don\'t wanna!"
"William Peterson!"
"I don\'t want to tell you, Mom!"
."Hurry up and tell Mama or say goodbye to your phone!"
"Nooo!"
No matter how hard Lisa tries to persuade her son to tell her what the mysterious girl\'s name is, William insists with his answer. Once he refused, he would never change his decision.
Over time, Oscar was also made curious about William. Was he so busy with his work that he didn\'t even know that his son had a girlfriend?
"Enough. Don\'t fight, my head is spinning." Oscar interrupted in the midst of a fierce argument between his ex-wife and child. "That\'s it, William. How about we play scissors, rock, paper? Whoever loses must tell the name of the girl he likes. For example, if Papa loses, it means Papa has to tell you the name of the girl Papa likes. And vice versa with you."
Before Lisa could cheer with joy that Oscar\'s plan would be a hundred percent successful, the woman heard William\'s refusal.
"Don\'t wanna! Don\'t think Papa or Mama can lie to me! It\'s no secret that Papa loved Mama, so why are we playing that game? Besides, I also don\'t want to tell you the name of the girl I like…"
Lisa then let out a loud laugh. She never thought that her son would grow up to be like this. Smart with words, stubborn, and not afraid of anyone. Including her, his own mother!
"Geez, why don\'t you want to believe me if my mother-in-law is a good person? When I first met my mother-in-law, she immediately bought me a very large cake. The other day, she also promised that I will marry her daughter one day!"
William looked at Lisa, "Well, so... you must remember that now I am not a child anymore! I am engaged, and my mother-in-law loves me very much!"
Lisa really felt like she could die young from her son\'s attitude!
"William, you are still small! Are you sure that this girl is right for you? We don\'t know yet, so don\'t expect that girl to be your wife. Besides, Mama is also sure that there are many other girls who are prettier than her."
"I don\'t want to transfer to another school!" William suddenly said with a loud tone.
"Geez, who said you were going to change schools? Do you think that you will still go to that kindergarten 10 years from now? Of course you will grow up! Soon you will graduate and continue to be an elementary school student, after that junior high school, then high school, and college! Later you will definitely meet a girl who is much prettier than her!"
William pursed his lips, "Well, I don\'t want to be asked to change schools."
"Oh my God…." Lisa whispered while shaking her head. "Okay, okay, fine, it\'s up to you. What\'s so special about your mother-in-law that you want to marry her child?"
Instead of answering Lisa\'s question, the boy gave her a question that made her heart almost stop beating.
"Oh right, my girlfriend does not have a father figure. What if I ask my mother-in-law so that she can marry Papa?"
"Wait, wait a minute." Oscar replied in disbelief, "If your mother-in-law married Papa, you won\'t be able to marry your girlfriend, right?"
"Yeah, it\'s okay. She can be my sister and we can still play every day!"
"Hey! Who said that there are other women who can marry your Papa!? Your papa is my husband! Don\'t think that anyone else can marry your Papa besides me!" Lisa interrupted quickly, and the woman\'s face turned red.
Hearing that suddenly made a wide smile appear, gracing Oscar\'s lips. His heart felt warm and his stomach tingled. It had been a long time since he had heard Lisa call him \'Husband\'.
Oscar wanted to ask Lisa to call him husband once more, but he felt that now was not the right time. Lisa could get angrier and even slap him in the face.
Lisa glanced at Oscar and then clenched her fists when she saw the man was actually making a sly smile.
"Why are you smiling huh!? You think this is funny?!" Lisa snapped.
William turned and saw his father\'s face which turned out to be smiling broadly. Without realizing it, the boy followed Oscar\'s actions. He smiled broadly and not long after, the sound of crisp laughter filled the VVIP room.
After laughing with satisfaction, William turned and said again, "Oh right, my mother-in-law is also asking questions about Mama."
"Huh? She\'s asking about Mama?" Lisa asked in disbelief while pointing at herself with her index finger.
"Mmm!" William replied. The boy frowned, thought for a while, and continued, "My mother-in-law asked about your full name and where you live now. She asked whether I have a brother or sister, and also where Mama works."
Hearing William\'s reply made Lisa feel that something was wrong. Why did the woman ask about herself at William?
Even though she really wants to marry William to her child, she shouldn\'t have to ask about all that in such detail, right?
"Then what\'s your answer?" Lisa asked anxiously.
"I said that Mama works for an insurance company while Papa is in charge of the company. Then I also told her that Mama and Papa\'s relationship isn\'t good anymore, and that you guys split up."
Lisa frowned, "William, listen to Mama. Even if you like your mother-in-law for those snacks she gives you, never answer personal questions like that, ok?"
"Why? My mother-in-law is just curious."
