After breakfast, Laura picked up her bag, ready to leave. “Lewis, Doris, thank you for letting me stay the night. Ari is still at the Webb family’s house, so I need to head back.”
“Don’t mention it. You’re welcome to come by anytime,” Lewis replied generously.
“Laura, if they ever treat you like that again after you go back, just give me a call. I’ll go confront them for you,” Doris said, holding Laura’s hand, clearly reluctant to part with her sister.
“I will. And don’t forget what I told you,” Laura reminded her, referring to the part–time job they discussed.
“I won’t,” Doris replied.
“Laura, it’s the weekend, and I’m off‘ work today. Let me take you back,” Lewis offered.
“No, thanks. I want to visit Mom and Dad before heading back,” Laura said, figuring she wasn’t in a rush to return. “You should take Doris to work instead.”
At Laura’s insistence, Lewis called a car for her. Then, he drove Doris to her workplace.
As they approached the Hampstone Hotel, Doris turned to Lewis and said, “I know everything now. You gave my sister 100 thousand dollars to settle her debt. I’ll pay you back for her. I’ll repay you 2,000 dollars every month once I get my paycheck.”
Lewis was momentarily stunned. He hadn’t expected Laura to tell Doris the truth.
His slender fingers tapped the steering wheel rhythmically as he replied, “No rush. Pay me back all at once when you’ve saved enough. I already have a car, a house, and a wife. I don’t need to save for anything else.”
Doris chuckled. “That’s true. My younger brother’s fiancée asked for a bride price of 100 thousand dollars, but you didn’t pay a cent when we got married. That really worked out well for you.”
“That’s right. So, consider this 100 thousand my bride price for you. No need to repay me,” Lewis replied, his generosity shining through.
Doris raised an eyebrow. “I was kidding. I never expected you to pay the bride price. I’m the one who proposed, after all.”
“I think I should pay it. Just accept it,” Lewis said casually as he turned the wheel and parked on the side of the road.
Doris didn’t feel comfortable about it. “I’m definitely paying you back.”
She could be quite stubborn at times. Lewis didn’t argue further, watching her as she walked away.
