Chapter 1022 Cinderella's Stepmother Strategy 24
Cyril sat on the bed, imagining what his stepmother looked like before she left. For some reason, a delicate and pretty little girl suddenly appeared in his mind.
The girl was petite, with two round dimples when she smiled, but her eyes... were the same pair he had seen on his stepmother's face.
He let out an imperceptible sigh.
Then he lay down in the cramped attic.
When I woke up the next day, I heard a commotion downstairs.
Asi went out to take a look.
I saw a tall and strong man kneeling at the door.
He was dressed quite neatly today, wearing a white shirt, which only made his skin look even darker.
But if you look closely, those facial features are quite attractive.
Looking to the side, he saw his eldest daughter Julia, who was usually very obedient, kneeling beside him.
As soon as she saw Ah Si coming down, tears immediately welled up in her eyes and she looked so pitiful.
"Mother, Ned and I truly love each other. He did it unintentionally yesterday. He didn't expect to hit someone else's carriage and throw you off. Mother, can you not blame him?"
Julia started to cry as she spoke.
Originally, his mother disliked Ned's family because they were poor, but Ned was a very honest man and could not say a word to flatter him. Yesterday, he tried hard to pull a cart for his future mother-in-law, but ended up throwing her out.
When Julia found out, she was almost heartbroken.
She really liked Ned. Ned was a good person and was even better to her.
When Ned was young and his family was poor, he would save any food he had for her.
It was the same in winter. I was wearing thin clothes, but I put my entire coat on her.
When Julian saw her sister crying, she knelt down as well.
"Mom, my sister really wants to be with Ned, so why not let the two of them give it a try."
Asi seemed quite at a loss.
A group of people all knelt in front of her, and she pursed her lips nervously.
At this moment, Cyril suddenly stood in front of her and looked down at her.
For some reason, Asi suddenly felt confident.
Although she was not Betty, after spending so many days with her, she really treated Julia as her own daughter.
So he put on a serious face and looked at Ned who was kneeling on the ground with his clear black and white eyes.
"Do you sincerely want to marry my daughter?"
Ned nodded immediately, and his big eyes were shining with a strange light.
Asi took a step back in fear at his burning gaze.
He said solemnly: "Then..."
She knew that Ned's family was poor, and Julia was her daughter after all. She couldn't let her marry him and suffer.
But she couldn't say anything bad.
I could only say in a soft voice: "Since you really want to marry Julia, then... make more money. When you make enough money, I will marry my daughter to you."
The joy on Ned's face faded a little.
She asked somewhat aggrievedly, "Then...how much do I need to earn to go to Julia?"
Asi tilted his head and glanced at Julia and Julian who were looking at him with tears in their eyes.
Purse your lips.
He whispered, "When you feel you can stop her from suffering."
After saying that, she really couldn't handle such a situation anymore, so she turned and went into the house.
Ned rubbed the back of his head.
He said naively, "Liya, I won't let you suffer now."
Julian glanced at her future brother-in-law and said to her sister, "Sister, Mommy is doing this for your own good!"
Julia knew it too.
She glanced at Ned with a rebuke, "Don't you really want to marry me? Why not wait a little longer?"
"Yes, yes, then I'll make more money so I can marry you!"
