Chapter 371 - Story Of Nina Li

CHAPTER 371: THROWING A TANTRUM

* * *

It's been three days since Harry left to visit his mother. Nina didn't feel at ease at all until Harry came back and saw his whole. She totally didn't trust Steven and hated him if he dared to hurt Harry.

Nelson and Dona noticed the gloominess of their daughter. The couple shared a glance. They understood the reason Nina was worrying too much that Harry flew to Zen City. 

Steven even became uncontrollable with his behavior that needed an extreme watch. 

Martin Long had sent a report about the incident when Steven attempted to escape. He fought with his bodyguards to run away. 

How about if the He Martial Art Club did not keep an eye on Steven? 

How if Steven got away? And Steven comes back to New Jersey to see Nina? 

It worries him. Even though Jerome and Mely were in Zen City, Steven continues giving trouble to them. 

Worse, his mother suffered from his aggressive behavior. 

Nelson was grateful that his daughter didn't end up marrying Steven. He doesn't need that kind of son-in-law.

Gladly, it was easy for them to separate Steven from Nina because she didn't love him.

How would Nina feel for Steven? And he wanted his daughter to break up with him, and Nina refused to do that?

It looks like that's another story. And even a scary one when his daughter ends up a battered lover but still won't leave Steven.

He probably kills that guy and lets his daughter hate him rather than seeing her bear the pain because of so-called love. 

He's grateful Nina fell for Harry instead. That guy could make Nina happy at the same time, sad when he was not around. 

Allowing them to get married this early may not be so bad at all. 

Nelson whispered to his wife. Dona's face brightens after hearing Nelson's plan. 

"Nina! Your papa said if you would like to go to New York and start looking for a designer for your wedding dress!" 

She's indeed in the abyss of loneliness without seeing Harry in three days. And the thoughtfulness of her parents washes away the sadness looming her heart in an instant. 

Nina immediately changes her house clothes into an exquisite dress after having breakfast with her parents. 

Today, Nelson drove his queen and princess to go shopping. Although this time Jessica is with them, it was still like old times.

Through a directory, they found a few luxurious couture shops. 

The owner introduces her finished gowns and currently designs that are ready to be made. 

Nina was looking through them. She likes a few, but not the rest. 

"Mama, they were too many ruffles and layers," Nina whispered to her mother not to offend the designers who were ecstatic to show all her designs. 

"Do you want just a simple design? Or?" Dona returned a query.

Nina nodded. Not long after, they leave the shop and reason out they will come back after having a final decision with the samples they have seen. 

In the car, Nelson queried if Nina already chose her wedding dress. Dona carefully explains to him because men don't pay attention to the details of a dress. 

"We better discuss this over lunch," Dona suggested afterward. 

The family headed to a Chinatown in New York and looked around for a restaurant that has private rooms. 

After they gave their orders and waited to serve the food, Dona resumed discussing with Nelson about everything Nina needed for her wedding. 

Nelson, who only masters himself how to run the Li company, could not fully understand why it is so hard choosing a wedding dress. 

He suggested, "Maybe we first did it traditionally, honey?" 

The three girls, including Jessica, who quietly follow them around, were exchanging glances with them. 

"Honey… That was really a great idea. But we are only doing a private wedding for now." 

"But my princess deserves a grand wedding!" Nelson insisted. He could still remember how they prepared several-day celebrations when he married Dona. He also wanted his daughter to experience that. 

"We can do that, honey, but this time, we are avoiding Steven to get near Nina. Maybe the situation will get better once Steven learned that Nina and Harry are now husband and wife." 

Nelson ponders over it, and he could agree to that. Later, Nelson concurred with whatever decision the girls came up with. He will pay for everything, even if it was Shang's obligation. 

"I think I will just ask Grandpa Shang to give you a percentage of the Shang's assets as a Betrothal Gift." 

Dona and Nina dropped their mouths from shock. The mother and daughter think he is only joking at this moment. 

"Ah, my bad. It's just a joke." Nelson feels the need to take back his words.

"Honey? How dare you! Even if it's their obligation, we must think of the children's happiness rather than thinking how much our daughter can get from the Shang!" Dona was suddenly irritated at what Nelson expressed. 

It may be tradition, but she doesn't want to base Nina and Harry's marriage on how much they will receive from them.

"Can we just consider the kids could not wait to get married, that's all?" Dona added.

Nelson fell silent. It looks like he triggered Dona's tantrums. If Dona didn't cool off, tonight he might sing the song, 'I'm sorry, buddy!' Nelson thought to himself. 

After Dona marries him, he transfers their other property under Dona's name and gives an enormous amount to the Lin family as Betrothal Gifts.

He fully knew that the Shang would be generous to give Nina a massive betrothal present. But he agreed to his wife. They must consider Nina and Harry to get married sooner to settle the problem between Steven. 

That guy is always a pain to them, especially to his daughter. So then, he would demand nothing from Shang but his daughter's protection so that Steven would not harm Nina once she is part of their family. 

Meanwhile, Nina was observing her parents. Her father has now stopped bringing up about the Betrothal Gift, but he is now coaxing her mother. 

Playing an amusing smile across her face, she wondered whether Harry would also coax her like this. 

Thinking it over, Nina thought that maybe throwing a tantrum once in a while is not bad to be pampered and coaxed, as to how her father is putting in a lot of effort at the moment.

Nina giggled inwardly. Her father looks so cute when he is now talking gently and trying hard to make her mother smile. 

She guessed marriage life is an exciting journey as long as the two people respect and are in love with each other. 

And she and Harry love each other! She could not wait for the day they became husband and wife!
