Jessica was not able to complete the task given to her by the unknown woman. She was worried that the other party would act on her family again, so she wanted Hank to send her home.
Her family was also in the countryside.
Hank was not too fond of visiting his mother–in–law. Every time he went, his mother-in-law would say that she was feeling unwell and that she lacked some things at home. Whenever he heard her, he would give her some money as he felt sorry for her.
Although he did not give much, this happened every time he visited. He felt uncomfortable about it as if his mother–in–law was taking him as an ATM.
Luckily, Jessica truly liked Hank and wanted to spend her life with him. When his mother–in–law demanded a high amount for bride price, Jessica stood by his side and went ahead to get their marriage license behind her parents‘ backs. There was nothing his mother–in–law could do.
In the end, the bride price was reduced to tens of thousands of dollars.
Even so, it was still a high figure in Wiltspoon’s countryside. After all, they were ordinary and not. rich families, so they could not be compared to those wealthy people.
