Chapter 348 She Wants Five Percent of the Linder Group Share
Chapter 348 She Wants Five Percent of the Linder Group Share
Francis didn't really care how much dowry Chandler could give them because what the Linder family could offer was not comparable to what the Lee family had offered.
"In-laws, don't pay attention to the dowry." Francis didn't really care about that.
But Rose did not want Chandler and Joy to use her like this without paying price. She was not reconciled because her parents got greedier.
"Dad, this is Rose's dowry. Rose should decide whether to prepare it or not." Bright saw through Rose's mind at a glance.
Francis looked at Rose. Realizing that he had been ignoring his daughter-in-law, Francis said, "You're right. It's up to Rose."
"Father, I consider this dowry as our respect and love to Bright, no matter whether it is expensive or not," Rose first said to Francis and then to Chandler, "Dad, since the Lee family has shown such great sincerity, I don't think you should treat it too lightly. No matter how much you prepare for me, the dowry will be shared by Bright and me."
"And aren't you pleased with Bright? Since I have found you such a good son-in-law, shouldn't you award me? Otherwise, Bright will think you don't like him. Is it Darling?"
Rose smiled the whole time, as if making a joke, making Chandler and Joy have no chance to back down.
If Chandler did not prepare any dowry, or did a poor job, it would not only be considered that he was not satisfied with Rose, but also he did not like Bright. They would not do anything to offend Bright, so Chandler had to show sincerity no matter what.
"How come... How come I am not satisfied with Bright?" Chandler was in a dilemma. He was so nervous that his back was wet with sweat, "Your mother and I are very satisfied with Bright. Of course, it takes more time to select and prepare for this dowry to show our sincerity."
Rose smiled sweetly, but in her heart, she could not show much affection for her parents.
When they had given up her five years ago, she had also given up her parents. Apart from that poor blood connection, they were truly strangers in affection.
"Mom and Dad, you gave Sophie 5% share of the Linder Group when she married Sky, so I think you will do the same, right? So, I am going to have what Sophie could get." Rose would not be soft on them. She would not be generous when she had to fight for her own rights.
Chandler and Joy were stunned, not expecting Rose to mention it.
In fact, of course, if Rose had married Sky, the 5% shares would have been her dowry, but things were unpredictable and they would expect there would be so many twists and turns.
When Rose had such scandal it those days, she made the Linder family and the Tanner family lose face, but Sophie saved the Linder family, and by marrying Sky, maintained the relationship with the Tanner family, avoiding the two families to go against each other. Otherwise, how could the Linder family work with the Tanner family? NôvelDrama.Org (C) content.
Therefore, they loved Sophie so much that they honored her with 5% share of the Linder Group as dowry to the Tanner family and to Sky.
Now Rose had made even more achievements than Sophie, turning Bright into their son-in-law. This was a good man every family would like. Chandler and Joy would laugh even when they fell asleep.
But when it came to the matter of the shares, they balked.
It was not that they didn't care about Bright, but that they knew Rose wasn't as obedient as Sophie was. Since they kicked Rose out of the Linder family, they had never treated her as a true daughter.
The years of separation had alienated them, and Chandler and Joy couldn't really trust Rose with their 5% share.
"Dad, Mom, what's wrong with you? If it's too difficult, forget it." When Rose saw that they were hesitating, she pretended to give up.
"Chandler, you can't be so biased. If Rose had married first, she would have had five percent of the shares. Since Sophie has gotten the dowry of 5% share in the Linder Group, Rose should have as well. Or I'll be the first to object you." Jennifer would always be on Rose's side.
Rose thanked her grandmother for her trust and love. She could only the family love in grandma.
"Joy, Rose is your daughter as well. You should treat her fairly." Grandfather also said for his daughter. He had never spoken to his daughter all these years.
"Mom and Dad, you can rest assured. Chandler and I know what to do." It was also the first time for Joy to talk to her father these years, and her eyes were a bit red.
"Rose, it's not difficult. You would have what Sophie had, and even more and better." As Jennifer and Grandpa had spoken for Rose, Chandler dared not have any objection in the face of Francis and Bright.
"Thank you." Rose was pleased with their answer.
Only with the shares, could she do what she wanted.
"Don't be so polite."
The matter of dowry was solved, and the waiter had served food, so everyone had dinner.
The wedding was formally put on the agenda, and would not be delayed.
After dinner, Bright and Rose went out with Grandpa. However, Grandpa suddenly fainted and had to be sent to the doctor.
Joy was shocked when her father fainted. Chandler took his mother home first, and Joy followed o the hospital with Bright and Rose.
After father went through the rescue and was sent to the ward, Joy looked at her emaciated father, his gaunt and aging face, and the thin transparent tube connected to her father's body... She was full of grief.
"What's wrong with your grandfather?" Joy asked Rose.
"In all these years you never went back to see Grandpa, and never called him... You didn't even go back to your mother when she died... And now you are concerned about Grandpa? Isn't that ridiculous?" Rose sat there blankly, her eyes covered with sadness.
"Rose, every time I called your grandparents, they hung up the phone when they heard my voice. I used to go back home, but they wouldn't let me in. They even drove me out and threw my things away... They made me lose face in the whole village..."
