Seriously, How Did He Win My Heart novel Chapter 724

Sylvie's father pulled her mother by the hand, put on a reproachful face and told her off. "Stop being such a gossip. Come on, let's get on the car."

With that he brought her onto the car. Sylvie gave Lucien a look, hinting that he should let go of her hand, because it was time for her to get on the car.

She had shivered with shock when he had caught her off guard by suddenly holding her hand.

She had no idea what others would feel like, but it's the first relationship she had ever had, so she felt nervous linking hands with him before her parents, and a little shy too.

Although she did feel great for irritating that woman.

Lucien insisted on paying for the dinner given that it was the father's birthday, so sure enough he chose the finest restaurant in the place. The excited mother post a photo on Instagram, while the father said disapprovingly, "Now you're the one who's showing off."

The mother retorted, "How is it showing off? I am just sharing the fact."

With a dirty look at him, she added, "Just shut up if you don't know how to speak right. How could I be a show-off? When was the last time you saw me do this?"

"I'm just giving that woman a piece of my mind. She's always bitching about our daughter in front of the neighbors. Don't you know it?"

The father' mouth was shut, as told by his experience when a woman was scolding.

Sylvie felt helpless about her parents, while Lucien secretly squeezed her hand under the table, and whispered to her ear, "My parents do the same thing. They squabble a lot, but it won't change how much they love each other."

Sylvie sighed. "I'm just wondering aren't they already past that age to do that."

When finishing her words, she saw her father watching her silently, she soon let go of his hand. She seemed to feel a hint of displeasure from her father, which likely to be how most fathers would feel when their daughter had a boyfriend.

They enjoyed the dinner, but when it was about to be over, Sylvie's mother looked at the phone and said angrily, "That nasty woman called Sylvie a gold-digger, and--"

The latter part seemed to be so mean that she didn't bring herself to read it out.

Sylvie was able to guess it immediately. She casually asked her mother, "And he is just fooling around with me. Right?

The mother was stunned, surprised to hear her daughter's correct guess.

She then added nonchalantly, "I have heard that hundreds of times. I don't care anymore."

She had expected that kind of judgement from people the moment she started the relationship with Lucien because who he was, just like what Andrew had done.

When Lucien went to see her on the set last time, people found out about them. Since then, she had heard more than one discussion about them, especially from those actresses. They were very jealous of a nobody assistant like her for winning Lucien Fowler's heart.

Fortunately, she was too upbeat to be influenced by those gossips.

Before the mother got to respond, Lucien frowned. He stared at Sylvie and asked, "Hundreds of times? From whom?"

Because Sylvie had never mentioned it to him before, he had no idea people talked about her like that, and the only one he knew was Andrew.

Andrew should have started to behaved himself and watch his language. But he didn't know that there was someone else.
