Substitute Marriage: Reborn As The Top Big-Shot

Chapter 907: 267: Lovers will eventually become family_1

Mrs. Price’s words made a lot of sense.

At the same time, those words indirectly conveyed to Noah that she was an open-minded mother who wouldn’t let external reasons stand in his way.

However, after hearing her, instead of feeling elated, Noah seemed all the more troubled. He turned to his mother and asked, “Mom, do you mean that if you truly love someone, you won’t mind their past?”

Mrs. Price nodded, “Yes, absolutely. Love can conquer everything.”

It is often said that the older one gets, the less they believe in love.

But that’s not the case with Mrs. Price.

...

She believes in love.

Moreover, she believes that true love can break through any reality.

Upon hearing her words, Noah sighed.

If it were any other past, he indeed wouldn’t have made a big deal of it, but Delia’s situation was different from others.’

The only reason his mother could say such a thing was because she was not aware of Delia’s situation. If she knew about it, would she still say the same thing?

No.

She definitely would not.

Thinking of this, a gloomy expression appeared on Noah’s face. He knew exactly what was standing between him and Delia.

Mrs. Price couldn’t understand why Noah was so stuck on this, and she furrowed her brows slightly, “Son, I’ve spoken my mind. What’s there that you can’t face? Why are you still sighing?” She considered herself an open-minded parent.

Having said that, Mrs. Price continued, “Is it because that girl rejected you many times and hurt your pride?”

Mrs. Price was speechless.

What’s the use of pride on the path of winning someone’s heart?

As long as you can win her over, you can give up everything.

What’s the big deal about pride?

Noah should be positive and continue pursuing Delia.

Being rejected a few times is normal and doesn’t count as a big deal!

Thinking of this, Mrs. Price looked towards Noah, and continued, “Do you know how long your dad chased me? He pursued me for three years before finally winning me over. How long has it been for you? You mustn’t lose heart.”

She really liked Delia.

She thought this girl was capable of managing a household.

Creative girls have their own unique views on love and aren’t easily won over.

“Mom, you don’t understand the real problem between us.” Noah looked at his mother, “Mom, let me tell you, it’s impossible for her and me to be together.”

“Why?” Mrs. Price didn’t understand, “What problem can’t be solved?”

In Mrs. Price’s opinion, there was no problem in the world that couldn’t be solved. As long as Noah’s love was strong enough, that love could solve all problems.

Noah took a deep breath, not knowing what to say.

Seeing this, Mrs. Price furrowed her brow, “Noah, if there’s a problem, just say it! Why are you beating about the bush? You’re a man, why are you acting like a woman?”

“Mom…” Noah looked at his mother, his face full of complex emotions, “I…”

“Just speak!” Seeing him like this, Mrs. Price was very anxious.

Noah opened his mouth but eventually said nothing.

Mrs. Price became even more anxious.

“Come on, speak up!”

Noah sighed again, “Even if I tell you the problem, there’s no possible solution.”

“Can you just tell me first?” Mrs. Price was helpless, “I should at least know what’s the problem!”

Noah couldn’t bring himself to say it.

Mrs. Price, growing agitated, stood up and demanded, “Are you going to say it or not?”

Noah hesitated.

This was, after all, Delia’s secret.

If his mother found out, it wouldn’t be good.

After hesitating for a long while, Noah finally looked up at Mrs. Price, “Mom, once I tell you, you mustn’t tell anyone else.”

“Okay.”

Mrs. Price nodded.

Noah took a moment to choose his words carefully, “Um…she…she used to work in a red-light district.”

Red-light district?!

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Price was stunned, her face unreadable.

She was speechless for a long while.

She had guessed from Noah’s reactions that there must’ve been a serious problem between Delia and him.

But Mrs. Price hadn’t imagined that the problem would be this serious.

Seeing his mother’s reaction, Noah pressed on, “That’s why, Mom, there’s no future for us.”

Mrs. Price forced herself to calm down, “How did you learn about this?”

“She told me”, said Noah.

Incredulously, Mrs. Price asked, “Did she confess it to you herself?”

At this, Noah nodded, “Yes, she told me herself.”
