Looking at the depressed Aaron, I didn't know how to comfort him. I just asked, "Did you customize the wedding dress for her?" The color and size suited Yana perfectly, I wouldn't even believe that it wasn't made for her in the first place.
He nodded, pursed his lips and said, "After she gave birth to Carney, I found a designer to custommake and tailor this dress. At that time, I wanted to hold a wedding for her when she was ready. I didn't expect that the day would never come."
"What's going on between you and Eunice?" I didn't want to ask him why his relationship with Yana had come to an end. It wasn't an easy story to tell.
He frowned slightly and snapped, "I'm old, it's about time I get married. It doesn't matter who I marry, as long as it doesn't bring a whole load of trouble."
I almost burst out in anger, "Aaron, are you losing your mind? Don't you know what kind of woman Eunice is? Are you trying to ruin the Reid family? You left a good wife and married her instead! Are you nuts? Uncle Charles and I won't agree to this. If you want to get married, even if that woman is not Yana, there are so many other amazing girls out there in the city. You should know better than
to settle with Eunice."
He looked at me and questioned, "Since when did you become so snobbish too? Why are you only paying attention to one's family background now?" Quietly, I looked at him. "You are my brother. Will I hurt you? You know deep down what kind of woman Eunice is. You should stay far away from her, not marry her! I don't care about her family background, but I care about your wife's character and conduct. As long as she is a kind and considerate woman, I won't oppose your marriage, but not her!"
