Yes. difficulty "I got you a necklace. Can I put it on for you" "yes you can". Vanessa said "alright". Richard said and happily wore her the necklace. "Richard, all these things you do will not make me accept you, you already know that our social status doesn't fit. So there would be so much disapproval from your friends and family too", Vanessa said to Richard. "all this is not a problem. I do not care what the world thinks, I really love you and I would do anything to be with you. Just give me a chance to prove myself to you. Please accept my offer". Richard said "Okay Richard, I have accepted. I also love you so much" she said, and they both hugged. It has been a month since Vanessa agreed to be in a relationship with Richard. "I think it's time I introduced you to my family", Richard said to Vanessa. "Oh yeah, I would really like to meet your family" Vanessa quickly replied "we will go tomorrow morning" "alright baby" Vanessa replied. "Good morning mom". Richard said to his mom, "Good morning Richard, how are you my son? His mom replied as she hugged him. "I am fine", he said "yeah I can see that," she replied with a smile. "Mom, meet my fiancee. Her name is Vanessa" "what! Fiancee? Who is she"his mother asked, "she works as a secretary in my office" "a secretary? We'll talk about this later. Let's go inside and have breakfast" she said. Vanessa felt so bad. Richard noticed this. "No mom, we won't be having breakfast, we will be on our way" "why son?" ". Goodbye mom" he said as he left the house. "I told you your family wouldn't approve our marriage" Vanessa said, "You do have to worry about that " he said. The next day Richard went alone to his family's house. "Mom, I did not like how you behaved the last time I came why did you not acknowledge Vanessa" he said to him angrily "how I acknowledge a classless girl I have already set up an alliance between you and Henrietta Taylor" "why mom" "Henrietta Taylor is the only daughter of the Taylors get married to her will add to our wealth I believe you won't snooze on this great opportunity" his mom said "I am already in love with Vanessa and nothing, not even you will stop our marriage, I came to invite for our marriage next week Wednesday" he said "what! If you do this you will loose all your father's inheritance" she said in anger, "okay mom, I am the happiest person with Vanessa by my side", he said, and left the house. "I will be getting married next week"Vanessa told Alice with so much excitement. "Oh my God!! Congratulations!!" Alice said "thank you" "so when are we going to pick up your wedding dress." "I think we should go tomorrow" Vanessa said "OK, that's great", Alice replied. "Good afternoon, I want to see Mr Richard" a tall, handsome man said to Vanessa. "May I know who you are? You also do not have an appointment with him. She said "I am Mr Henry Taylor". He said nicely "let me inform him first", so she called Richard and he agreed that he should be let in. "Good morning Mr Richard" "Good morning Mr Henry". They both said "I hear that you are refusing to marry my sister. What is your reason?" Mr Henry asked " I am already in love with someone else and that is who I am getting married to. You cannot convince me otherwise", Mr Richard said. "Oh really you will definitely regret your decision", Mr Henry said as he angrily left the office. It was finally the wedding day. Richard and Vanessa were so excited.
