Married at First Sight chapter 762
Chapter 762
“My mom doesn’t mean it. Why are you hung up on this? Jessica, if I can be honest about the bride price, I think your family is demanding a lot. I’m fine with giving your family over seven hundred thousand dollars if they pay for the wedding and offer other gifts of the same value.
“Heck, I’ll be happy if they offer half the value, but your parents said they’ll only be gifting a few sets of bedding and an e–bike. The gifts are only less than ten thousand dollars put together.
“I overheard your parents the day they came to meet mine that the bride price would be split between your two brothers for their home renovations and new cars. Your parents are keeping sixty thousand dollars while only six thousand dollars is left for you and the wedding.”
Hank admitted that he went through the roof when he eavesdropped on how Jessica’s parents planned to spend the money.
He owned a fortune of around two million dollars. Since more than a million dollars went to Liberty, Hank had less than a million dollars left. However, he went back to becoming a millionaire after collecting the recent kickback and cash reward he hinted at the material supplier.
Nevertheless, the money would not last with the Yateses‘ exorbitant demand.

“They might be captivated by the city bustle after coming here once. They could end up asking us to contribute to their rental and house purchase here.”
Sure, Hank had a soft spot for Jessica and would spoil her. He was willing to give her his everything, but he had not lost his head.
Mr. and Mrs. Yates wanted to give Jessica’s brothers the best life through Jessica.
“My family wasn’t well–off. My brothers joined the workforce at a young age to pay for my college tuition fees. They had it hard and have done so much for me. I should at least repay them.
“We’re on a high income. We can afford it without lowering our standard of living even if we have to pay for their rental here.”
Hank remarked, “Don’t you think our boss finds us eyesores lately? I don’t think we’ll be working there for long.”
They might not enjoy the salary they had right now when they leave Waltham Electronics.
“I’ll go home and have a good talk with my mom so that she stops going to Liberty’s and talking about us. Mom is making a fool out of us. You should discuss with your parents to lower the asking bride price. I can do about a hundred thousand bucks. It’ll give us enough money to cover our renovations. I think it’s a win–win situation.”
