Chapter 701

“You said it was boring when the date was set at the restaurant yesterday. No matter how it’s done, you’ll find something to criticize. Do you just not want to go on a blind date?” Phoebe asked.

Valarie pursed her lips. “I don’t want to. If it weren’t for you guys pushing me, I wouldn’t even consider it.”

For her, not getting married wasn’t a big deal. She’d rather stay single than wake up every day to a face she didn’t like, pretending to be happy for the rest of her life.

“You’re driving me crazy! You’re in your 30s now, and if you don’t get married soon, no one will want you by the time you’re 40! Your dad and I are getting older, and after we’re gone, how will you manage on your

own?!” Phoebe exclaimed.

Facing her mother’s serious expression, Valarie shrugged. “I’ll manage just fine. There are plenty of people who choose not to marry or have kids, and none of them seem to be struggling.”

Phoebe gritted her teeth. “I don’t care! When you get to our age, you’ll understand I’m only looking out for

you!”

Valarie knew that discussing this with her mother was pointless. They had already argued too much about her age and the blind dates. Now that she had compromised, there was no need to keep fighting.

“Fine, I’ll go on the blind date. But if the guy isn’t interested in me, or if I’m not interested in him, I won’t agree to marry,” she stated firmly.
