Iâm A Quadrillionaire chapter 222 âCelia, Iâm not anxious to marry you off. Iâm just trying to find you some great guy. Just like Joshua. His height, appearance, status, and background are at least better than those still in school! I just donât want you to waste your time with poor students.â
âWhat makes him better than anyone else? Isnât he just a rich heir who only relied on his parents?â
Retorted Celia.
âSo what if heâs a rich heir? Whatâs wrong with rich heirs? As long as heâs kind, ambitious, and has his parents help him, he might be able to outshine his parents in the future!â
âAlright! Alright! Youâre right! But Iâm still young! I donât want to date so early! Will you stop pushing me?â Pleaded Celia.
âNo! Somethingâs wrong! Do you have a boyfriend at school?â Mindy asked suddenly.
âWh⦠what? I⦠I have no boyfriend! Donât make things up!â Celia replied nervously.
âThereâs something fishy about your nervousness. Iâve been in the business world for years. D o you think I canât see what youâre up to? Tell me⦠Who on earth is he?â Mindy said sternly.
Jon also put down his newspaper and looked at Celia.
He had no idea his daughter had a boyfriend.
If it was true, this was serious and needed to be addressed.
Girls got bullied easily.
âMom! Itâs true! Could you stop making things up?â
âJon! Look at the good daughter you raised!â
âCelia, tell me if you have a boyfriend. Weâre not making things hard for you, but you as a girl must have self-respect, got it?â Said Jon.
âDad! I⦠I really donât have one! How could you not believe me?â Celia said aggrievedly.
âDid he go to high school with you? Or did he go to your university?â
âWait a minute!â
Something recurred to Jon!
Celia followed him to Shu City for a year of high school. He was transferred back, but she refused to come back and wanted to continue school there, saying she should learn to be independent since she had grown up!
He thought his daughter had grown up.
âLooking back, could they have gotten together at the time?â
âDuring that year, we only went to see her occasionally. They didnât move in then, did they? Itâs possible!
Jon was heartbroken by the thought.
Some punk had managed to charm his beautiful daughter.
If he knew who it was, he would break his legs.
âCelia, tell me the truth! Did you refuse to follow me back during senior year just to be with him?â Jon asked after calming down.
âWhat? Celia, so you didnât want to come back during senior year so you could be with him? Speakâ¦
Were you living together at that time? Do you think youâre ready to spread your wings and leave the nest, you damned girl? How dare you move in with someone else without telling us? Are you trying to piss us off?â Mindy was so mad after hearing what Jon said.
Had their daughter moved in with someone else without telling them?
That was simply atrocious!
The point was that they did not even know who the boy was! That was what infuriated them the most âDad! Mom! What are you talking about? I didnât move in with anyone.â Celia was on the verge of tears.
âJon, youâve done such a good job. How could you not have known that something was going o n with your daughter? How did you raise our children?â Mindy turned to question Jon.
Jon said nothing.
It was indeed his fault.
He figured out who it was.
David Lidell!
A boy who saved his daughterâs life, who was also her classmate.
He remembered his daughter often mentioning him at that time.
He even asked his daughter to invite him over, but he seemed to have rejected.
He was also busy with work at that time, so he did not pay it any more attention.
He did not even have time to thank David.
Now it seemed that he had indeed failed in his duties as a father.
