Billionaire's Love

"Dad..." Lucas called as he walked towards eveyone with Johnson behind him.

Johnson rolled his eyes looking at Lucas as he walked towards them in the Garden calling Dad.

"Yes, Son?" Thomas asked.

"I want to talk to you all!" Lucas answered as he sat down on the chair and Johnson sat down infront of him too.

"Yes, sure... What do you want to talk about?" Thomas asked making others frown at him.

"Umm..." Lucas stuttered as he looked at Johnson.

"What? Why are you looking at me? Tell them what you want did you do and what you want to do!" Johnson said making Lucas sigh and other looked at Johnson with a frown.

"Umm... Umm... Yes, I am not scared... I already did it though..." Lucas replied and Johnson rolled his eyes at him.

"What are you both talking about? And what did you do, Lucas?" Robert asked making Lucas turn towards him.

"Umm... I... I proposed Quency!" Lucas answered making everyone eyes wide.

"What?" Everyone shouted at once making Johnson laugh sheepishly and Lucas closed his eyes in nervousness. 

"Ummm... Yeah..." Lucas answered.

"When did this happen?" Thomas asked.

"Umm... A few days back!" Lucas answered.

"Oh my god... What was her answer?" Elina asked making Lucas take a deep breath.

"She accepted right?" Elina asked with a bright smile and Lucas just kept staring at her as he has no idea how will his mother react if she gets to know that, Quency didn't accept neither rejected him.

"Um... Mom..." Lucas stuttered.

"Why are you stuttering? Say something!" Elina said making Lucas sigh.

"She didn't accept him." Lucas replied making everyone eyes wide and open their mouths.

"Huh? What?" Elina asked.

"Neither she rejected!" Lucas answered.

"What do you mean by this?" Thomas asked and Lucas looked at Johnson.

Johnson nodded his head at Lucas making him sure that it's really alright to say them everything.

"Umm... The reason is..." Lucas cut off in mid Sentence as everyone looked at him with a frown.

"The reason is what?" Elina asked as she was so impatient to know what is going on with her son. 

"Mom... The reason is her family... I mean, her parents." Lucas answered making her frown.

"Umm... Ahhh... Yeah..." Elina replied as she took a deep breath.

"Lucas, aren't you rushing things? Isn't it just been like 1 month since you started dating her?" Thomas asked raising his eyebrows at him.

"Thomas, Lucas know what he is doing... And he wants Quency in his life because he loves her." Elina answered.

"Elina, you can't say that... Even though, he loves her. It doesn't mean that, he should rush things... What might that girl think about it? That he can't he patience till they both get to know each other well?" Thomas asked.

"Why would she think that when she already loves him?" Elina asked.

"Elina, we love each other too... Would you had accepted me if I ask you to marry me in just 1 month of dating you? Would you take that decision to marry me without asking to your parents? Well, you did... You did talked to your parents before accepting to marry me... Didn't you?" Thomas asked making Elina shut her mouth and she took a deep breath.

"Umm..." Elina stuttered.

"Excatly, Elina... You won't have done that... It's same with Quency too... She respect her parents decision more than hers. She doesn't want to give our son any hopes on marrying him if her parents doesn't agree for this. And yes, no girl who is serious in a relationship wants to rush things... They think about everything... I meant, everything about past, present and future." Thomas said making Elina take a deep breath.

"Our son loves Quency... I won't say no or he doesn't love her... But, our son past relationships weren't good... She will think about that too... She might be scared of he might can do same with her too... Even though, he can't... But still, she will be scared because she doesn't want to get hurt in the future." Thomas sajd making Elina sigh.

"Yeah... I... I haven't thought about all these things..." Elina replied.

"No... It's fine. You are his mother. You want your son to be happy with the girl he loves. It's your mother nature. That's nothing wrong in it... But you need to think about the girl he loves too... I won't say he did something wrong right now by asking her to marry him... But I will just say that, yes, he rushed things..." Thomas said making Everyone nod their heads. 

"One is very less for her... But it's also a lot of time to know about a person... She is sure that, he is serious in this relationship right now but she can't be sure about the future. She wanted a relationship that last long till death do them apart..." Thoma said and turned towards Lucas with a stern face.

"I know, you love her so much... But you should have talked with us first before you go propose her... I am not saying you did wrong as I said right now... But it would have been good if you said about your plans to us." Thomas said making Lucas nod his head in yes.

"I am sorry, Dad... I thought, she might be ready for this too... But I was wrong..." Lucas replied.

"Lucas, she is a typical Indian girl... Who came from the traditional family... Her parents trusted her and sent here just because of her dreams should come true... But she also promised them something if you forget what it is!" Thomas said and Lucas shook his head in no.

"No... I haven't forgotten that... I... I... Thought, after she accepts, I will tell you and will go meet with her parents." Lucas replied.

"And you think, they will accept you and call you out as their son in law?" Thomas asked making Lucas look up at him.

"They won't... It would be hard for them to accept..." Lucas answered.

"Excatly... It will be hard for them... Because it's not you who they took promise from... They took a promise from their daughter. And It's her responsibility to respect that promise from her parents and do as they say!" Thomas replied making him nod his head in yes.
