'This is too absurd and ridiculous!'
'Forget the fact that Evelyn Grant is on her second marriage and has been in a detention center. Even if she were still that innocent girl-next-door, she's nowhere near good enough for my brother.'
'How could Ryan possibly want her?'
'He would never help her get pregnant just to escape the death penalty.'
"Oh? Ryan, I remember you once said there was a girl you liked?"
Ryan Sterling nodded. "I did."
"Then why not bring her home for Mom and Dad to see? You're twenty-seven this year, right? It's time to start thinking about marriage! We haven't kept in touch as much since you went to Eldoria, but I still care about you, you know! When you bring your future sister-in-law home, I'll drop everything at the company to meet her, no matter how urgent it is. We need to show her that our family takes her seriously!"
