Chapter 1532: 380: Overly confident! _4 Chapter 1532: 380: Overly confident! _4 “So soon?”
Dolores Frieman nodded, “Noah Reed has been rushing us from his end, and Ermie has also decided on Noah, these two are not young anymore, so we settled things down.”
Speaking of these things, Dolores Frieman looked pensive.
The sisters had never imagined that they could live such good lives.
If they hadn't met Viola Thompson….
Sometimes, Dolores Frieman would think, it would have been better if Rachel Barton hadn't taken that path.
It's a pity.
Sometimes, destiny just likes to play tricks on people.
Halfway through his tea, Kevin Ainley got up to go to the restroom.
While Kevin was using the restroom, Dolores Frieman briefly explained to Viola how she and Kevin had met.
“Saying that, it was also a coincidence. Kevin is a regular customer at my barbecue stall. He probably recognized me a long time ago, but I didn't know him till much later,” said Dolores Frieman, smiling as she spoke. “Later, Charlie's private tutor mentioned wanting to introduce me to someone…”
The private tutor, Jodie Edison, had originally intended to introduce her brother to Dolores Frieman, but her mother looked down upon Dolores, a divorced woman with only a primary school education.
So Jodie introduced Dolores to her cousin.
That man was Kevin Ainley.
Dolores continued, “Actually, at first, I didn't want to remarry. After all, I have two children. If I were to remarry and the man also had children, it would inevitably be too much for me. But Kevin is different. He is an honest and reliable man. He didn't hide anything from me.”
Viola Thompson nodded slightly, “What was the reason for his divorce with his wife? Did they not have children?”
The dynamics in remarried families must always be clarified.
Especially for women like Dolores Frieman, who have two children and are financially stable.
After all, the union of two people involves two families and their children.
Dolores Frieman lowered her voice, these things would normally be inappropriate to discuss with outsiders, but Viola Thompson was different to her.
“He is infertile, the child his ex-wife was carrying belonged to someone else, so when they divorced, his ex-wife took the child away,” Dolores continued. “During our first meeting, he was upfront with me about these matters and promised to treat Charlie and Charlie's sister as his own flesh and blood.”
“Afterwards, I brought him home. Both Charlie and his sister really liked Kevin and they naturally got along together, so I agreed to give it a try with him.”
Dolores Frieman had carefully considered the idea of being with Kevin Ainley.
Being together, they each had something the other needed.
Kevin Ainley was infertile, while Dolores Frieman had both a son and a daughter.
And Dolores Frieman's social relations were simple. Her ex-husband was in jail, so she did not have to worry about anyone trying to take her children away.
Furthermore, Dolores Frieman was rich and self-reliant.
Dolores had also chosen Kevin Ainley because of his unique situation. Since Kevin Ainley was infertile, she could avoid the possibility of getting pregnant and would not have to manage the complicated relationship between a stepmother and stepchildren.
Being a stepmother is hard.
Even the kind-hearted Dolores Frieman could not guarantee that she would be a perfect stepmother.
After all, everyone has flaws.
Sometimes, even a biological mother may lose her temper and hit her children, let alone a stepmother.
It is taken for granted that a biological mother disciplines her children.
If a stepmother disciplines her children, any slight misstep can be considered abuse.
This is another reason why Dolores Frieman did not want to start a family again.
As she spoke, Dolores Frieman turned to Viola Thompson and continued, “Viola, you've always been good at judging people. What do you think of Kevin? Is he worth continuing to see?”
Upon hearing this, Viola Thompson nodded slightly, “He seems fine. Not the type of man who is cunning and only demands things from women. Mainly, it's because you both complement each other in many aspects. Dolores, I wish you both a speedy journey to the marriage altar.”
“Thank you, Viola.” After hearing Viola's approval, Dolores Frieman felt more confident.
It seemed like Viola Thompson remembered something and asked, “Dolores, have you met his parents yet?”
Dolores Frieman shook her head, “I haven't yet, but I heard that his parents are very cheerful people.”
Viola Thompson nodded slightly, “Why don't you find some time to meet his parents? Look at their attitude towards you and the kids. If something happens during the first meeting that upsets you or the children, then this relationship doesn't really need to continue.”
The first meeting is very important. If the other party doesn't take the first meeting seriously, how can you expect him to respect you if you live together in the future?
