Chapter 101 101【Family】
After receiving the call, Peggy fainted directly, startling Xiang Nan and Leonard.
Fortunately, she woke up without waiting for an ambulance to be called. Otherwise, it is really going to scare people to death.
"Raj, do you think I can't see them?" Peggy said with some difficulty.
At the beginning when she was kicked out of the house, she was miserable and homeless, how desolate, now she can't bear to think about it.
Now, she is successful, famous, and the Nobel Prize is within reach. And they showed up at this time. It made her suspicious that they came here for their own money and their own fame.
Even if it wasn't the case, they really came here for family affection, and she wasn't ready to recognize them.
"In principle, I respect your personal opinion." Xiang Nan thought for a while and said, "However, from the boyfriend's point of view, I suggest you meet them."
"Why?" Peggy asked puzzled.
"Peggy, you are a very emotional person. The reason why you left home at the beginning was because you could not accept your parents' divorce." Xiang Nan analyzed, "You have helped Sheldon repeatedly because he was your friend since childhood. I can't bear to lose him. It can be seen how much you value feelings in your heart.
If you don’t see your relatives this time, then you will never see them again, and this will be your eternal regret in the future.
On the contrary, if you go to meet them, it is possible to recognize them and regain the lost family relationship. This is a very good thing for you.
Take a step back and say, even if they come for money and fame. At that time, you can also send them away again. And I completely stopped thinking about them, so I don't have to think about them again in the future. "
Peggy nodded in agreement after listening.
"Then will you go with me?" She looked up and asked.
"Of course." Xiang Nan nodded.
…
Afterwards, Xiang Nan and Peggy drove to the school.
When I came to the reception room, I saw two women sitting inside.
One of them is older and the other is younger.
Both of them seem to be in good condition, not like the kind of people who live in a difficult life.
As soon as Peggy saw them, she felt as if struck by lightning, her body tilted, and she was about to faint again.
Xiang Nan supported her in time, "Relax, relax~"
When the two ladies saw her, they were both surprised and happy, and they stood up at the same time.
Xiang Nan helped Peggy into the reception room, first helped her to sit on the sofa, then walked towards the two ladies, and said with a smile, "Hello, ladies. Let me introduce myself, I am Rajesh Ku Sapari, Peggy Swanson's boyfriend."
"Hello, Rajesh." The older woman introduced herself. "I'm Linda Hamilton, Peggy's mother. This is my daughter, Erica Hamilton."
"Ma'am, Peggy was very excited when she knew you were coming, and she fainted once just now." Xiang Nan introduced, "I am even more excited to see you now, so please give her some time to let her get used to it. "
"Of course. In fact, when we saw her in the news, we were also very excited." Linda nodded, "After Peggy left us at the age of eleven, we have always been worried about her and missed her. , but we had no way to find her. We didn’t know where she was until we saw the report the day before yesterday, so we rushed over right away.”
"I see." Xiang Nan nodded, "Actually, Peggy has always wanted to be reunited with her family. But because she did a lot of wrong things before and made you so angry, I am embarrassed to go back to see you."
"I suggest not to mention the sad things in the past." Xiang Nan nodded and said, "How are you doing now?"
"After I divorced Peggy's dad, I married my husband, Jason Hamilton, the following year. He was a meat supplier," Linda explained. Graduated from community college and now works as a vice president in Jason's company."
"Sounds good." Xiang Nan laughed.
Judging from the information they disclosed, the life of the mother and daughter should be good now. Even if they are not rich, they can be considered middle class.
And this greatly reduces the possibility of them looking for relatives for money and fame.
Of course, the possibility of them lying cannot be ruled out. But judging from their dress, mental state, and manners, their claims are still very credible.
…
At this moment, Peggy had recovered, stood up and came to Linda.
After looking at her for a moment, both of them burst into tears.
"Mom~" Peggy choked up and shouted, and then hugged Linda, "I miss you so much."
"Peggy, we miss you too." Linda also hugged her daughter tightly.
Seeing this touching scene, Xiang Nan couldn't help but feel his nose panting and his eyes red.
"Okay, stop crying all the time, let's find a place to sit down and have a good chat." Xiang Nan persuaded them softly when they were almost crying.
Peggy and Linda both nodded.
Then the four of them drove to a nearby coffee shop.
Xiang Nan noticed that the mother and daughter Linda and Erica were driving a half-new Cadillac Trailblazer.
The price of a new car is about 80,000 US dollars. Judging from the price, state of use, and interior of the car, the mother and daughter should be in a good financial situation.
Otherwise, not only would you not be able to drive such a good car, but it would also be impossible to maintain it so well.
"Mom, I'm sorry, I was too self-willed before." After entering the coffee shop, Peggy took her mother's hand and said.
"Peggy, it's not your fault, it's because mom doesn't know how to take care of you." Linda also said with tears in her eyes.
"No, I was wrong, I shouldn't give up on myself."
"No, I was wrong, I shouldn't have kicked you out!"
Mother and daughter each said a sentence, and kept confessing to each other.
Xiang Nan and Erica sat aside, unable to get in the conversation.
"I heard that you are the vice president of the company now. How is it? Is the meat business easy?" Xiang Nan greeted with a smile.
"It's not bad. The sales of our White Knight pork chops are very good." Erica nodded.
"Oh, you can try it if you have the chance." Xiang Nan said with a smile.
"How did you and my sister get together? I read reports that you seem to be smarter than her." Erica asked curiously again.
"Oh, Peggy should be better than me in terms of IQ alone, but scientific research is not enough to rely on IQ alone." Xiang Nan said with a smile, "Peggy and I met in November last year..."
