Chapter 728: The Wedding Dress Appears (2)
Because they were so worried about Jasmine Ruiz’s situation, the two of them had rashly gone upstairs together, and she hadn’t noticed until her mother called her away and told her it wasn’t considerate for her to do so. It was then that she realized what she had done in her anxiety.
For such a long time, she had not allowed her boyfriend to be seen by the Ruiz family, and their relationship had always been lukewarm between them.
Carolline Ruiz later asked about her boyfriend’s situation, and Avie Ruiz reluctantly said that although their feelings were mutual and the man’s family background was not as good as Christopher Lopez’s, nor as capable as Bryan Hawkins’, it wasn’t the family background they were looking at when living together, but the two people’s personalities and how they got along.
"Alright, Carolline, you don’t have to keep me company. Go help greet the guests. As the eldest sister-in-law, you can’t just be with your own family. Your brother-in-law might have his opinions," Jasmine Ruiz said to Carolline Ruiz, as she knew what the expectations of the Lopez family were like from spending time there. In order to marry Christopher Lopez, she had endured all kinds of hardships.
In fact, the old master of the Lopez family was quite good to her, especially after she became pregnant. He had made many promises to her, saying that once she gave birth to the child, everything would be fine.
At that time, she clearly saw the smiles on Christopher Lopez’s and her in-laws’ faces, as her mother-in-law kept whispering to her that the baby must be a boy.
Perhaps it was pity from above, or just her destiny, but what she indeed had was a son. Her in-laws were very happy, giving her everything she wanted, even allowing her to return to her own family to nurture her pregnancy. They even let Christopher Lopez stay with her and assigned her the most capable servants in the house.
During that period, she had actually been quite happy. It was just that happy times were always short-lived.
Christopher Lopez turned out to be that kind of man, something that Jasmine Ruiz had never expected. Fortunately, it was not too late to leave him, even though the pain in her heart needed time to heal.
