The folks from the Quentin family were all quite sharp, so naturally, they could decipher the true meaning behind Brian's words.
However, both parties didn't say anything more, they just resumed their usual chat.
Once the banquet was over and the Hart family had left, Mrs. Quentin turned to her son and asked, "Lornell, what's going on with the Hart family? Don't tell me there's been some sort of hitch with your engagement to Harley."
Upon hearing this, Lornell scoffed, "There won't be any mishaps. After all, they are dealing with us, the Quentins. They can’t just cancel it as they want."
"Yeah, that's true. After all, it was our Quentin family who saved Harley's life, so naturally, they have to take the engagement seriously."
However, as she said this, Mrs. Quentin looked at her son with an inquisitive gaze, "But what kind of feelings do you have for Harley?"
Honestly, even as his mother, she had a hard time understanding Lornell's issues with his relationships.
To say that he liked Harley didn't quite hit the mark. From her perspective, it had always been Harley who was more into Lornell.
But if you were to say that Lornell didn't like Harley, well, they had been engaged for many years and everything had been peaceful. Lornell had never shown any intention of breaking off the engagement. In fact, Lornell seemed to care quite a bit about this engagement. She even once tested Lornell, asking if they should call off the engagement, but Lornell flatly refused.
"What kind of feelings should I have?" Lornell retorted.
"Do you really like her or not?" Mrs. Quentin sighed, "Although I want to hold my grandchild sooner, I also hope that you’ll have a happy marriage. After what the Hart family just said, I'm afraid even if Harley graduates, you two won't be getting married anytime soon."
"I'm not in a hurry. After all, getting married is just a matter of time," Lornell said.
"So what do you think?" Mrs. Quentin was getting impatient.
"Harley is a good match for me," Lornell replied. "I think her personality is quite decent. She doesn't stir up trouble everywhere, nor does she put pressure on others. Being with her feels comfortable. Plus, with the background of the Hart family, she's well-suited to be my wife."
