Chapter 857 Saul Forced Edward with Money

Electra was so angry with Hestia that she was having trouble breathing.

Edward quickly spoke up. "Mrs. Sharp, you and Hestia have a good talk. I'll go ask the doctor about your condition."

"Stop right there!" Electra's anger was now directed at Edward. "All these years, I've worked so hard to raise her, and now she treats me like this. Tell me, Should you compensate me? It's not that I won't give you a wedding gift, I just want to see your family's attitude. I'm afraid she'll be mistreated in your family. Am I wrong?"

Edward felt awkward. Was this a trick question? "Well... Mrs. Sharp, I think I should give this money to you. According to each family's situation, giving a promise to the other party also provides a sense of security to the wife before marriage. It proves my sincerity in wanting to build a new family with her. This is also a commitment from me and a sign of respect to you."

Edward was as eager as a student answering a teacher's question.

Electra's expression softened a lot. She seemed quite satisfied with Edward's answer. Hestia grabbed Edward's hand. "You should go back. I'll take care of my mom here." Edward nodded, giving Hestia and her mother some space. "Mrs. Sharp, please rest well. It was wrong of us not to inform you about getting the marriage license earlier. You and Hestia have a good talk. I'll choose a suitable day for my mother to come and discuss the wedding and other matters with you."

Edward thought this would show respect to Hestia and Electra.

"Is it just your mother in your family?" Electra asked cautiously.

Single mothers were great, but they were also sensitive. They lacked a sense of security,

so they turned their love into chains, binding their children.

"Yes, my dad has another family outside. My mom raised us alone. My sister went missing when she was very young, and my mom got depressed because of it. But now my sister has been found." Edward nodded.

Electra felt sorry for Edward and thought he was a responsible child. "Your mom has had a hard time too."

"My sister got married and has three kids now. With the children around, my mom's condition has stabilized." Taking care of the kids indeed kept Cordelia too busy to be depressed.

Plus, the kids were very healing and gradually mend Cordelia's soul.

"Has Hestia met your mom?" Electra asked.

"We planned to meet the parents once our relationship was more stable," Hestia answered for Edward.

"When I get out of the hospital, let's find a chance for both families to meet." Electra said softly.

Hestia nervously gripped Edward's wrist.
