Aida laughed and joked.
“Don’t be anxious. When Molly marries Maverick, this gene will continue again!”
Mrs. Stewart was stunned. She then clapped and laughed. ” Yes!”
The three women laughed in unison.
By the time everyone finished their meal in the afternoon, Mr. and Mrs. Stewart had completely lost the sense of restraint they had when they first arrived.
They even had a fond gaze when they looked at Grant.
That was because Grant had lost several rounds of chess against Mr. Stewart, and Mr. Stewart saw that even geniuses have times when they lose, just like ordinary people.
The butler sent a car to send them back home. The day was considered a success.
After the Stewarts left, Maverick still had a smile on his face.
Even Nicole felt that Maverick would be tired soon.
As soon as Nicole turned her head, Maverick said to Floyd, “Dad, can you pass me the family register?”
Floyd did not think much about it. He sat on the massage chair and asked, “What do you want that for?”
’to get a marriage license,” Maverick said in a firm voice.
The air became stagnant for a moment.
The corners of Floyd’s lips twitched. Floyd opened his eyes.
“Although the in-laws are very satisfied with you, I’ve mentioned your engagement many times and they’ve politely refused. They want Molly to wait for two more years. How are you getting your marriage license then?”
Maverick stood there with an unchanged face.
“We’ll get the marriage license first. We don’t need to rush the engagement.”
“That’s the same as eloping! If the in-laws find out…”
Floyd stopped mid-sentence. He wanted to say, “If they find out, your good impression will shatter to pieces!”
After all, as a father himself, Floyd felt furious when he found out that Nicole and Eric got their marriage license without his knowledge. He was so infuriated that he wanted to shoot Eric.
However, Maverick’s clear and elegant face held a light smile.
“It’s not. Molly agreed.”
Floyd was stunned. “She agreed?”
Nicole sat on the side without saying a word.
Indeed, although Mr. and Mrs. Stewart acknowledged Maverick, if Molly and Maverick secretly got a marriage license, that would be eloping.
It felt wrong.
“Mav, why don’t you wait for some time? Wait for Molly to inform her family first before you both get your license.
Now, you’ve only just met her parents and want to get your marriage license so soon. Isn’t it too hasty?”
Nicole could not help but speak up.
Maverick pursed his lips. His eyes were dark and reflected a cold light.
“No, I’m afraid that she’ll backtrack.”
Thus, it was best to get their marriage license earlier.
With that license, Maverick could have a sense of security.
Otherwise, when he was busy doing experiments in the research institute, he would always worry about whether Molly would dump him.
Floyd looked at his son, who was excellent at everything but had questionable emotional intelligence.
Floyd patted his clothes and stood up.
“If you want to get married smoothly, don’t fool around. Are you going back to the research institute tomorrow? You should go back and get ready then…”
Maverick did not expect Floyd to reject him. He froze for a second.
“Dad…”
However, Floyd did not listen to him at all and went straight upstairs.
Nicole laughed. “Mav, Dad is only doing this for your own good!”
Maverick frowned. His eyes were clear and uncomprehending.
“Grant and Aida got their marriage license before getting engaged, so why can’t I?”
Grant and Aida, who were suddenly named, faintly froze.
Grant’s eyebrows furrowed tightly. His face was sullen, and he looked like he wanted to teach Maverick a lesson.
’Why is Mav comparing with us? How is his situation comparable to mine?!’ Grant thought.
Aida squeezed Grant’s hand, which appeased Grant’s anger by half.
She looked at Maverick gently. The corners of her lips held a warm smile. ”Mav, the reason why we got our marriage license before we got engaged is that we don’t have any obstacles other than each other. I don’t have parents or other relatives anymore and I only have your brother, so I can take this responsibility myself.”
