Chapter 469: Chapter 469: The Evans Family Has Gone Mad
Xaviera curled her lips and showed no mercy, “I never agreed to marry Mr. Edwin Sutton. This decision was made by you all without my consent, so it has nothing to do with me, right?”
“Nonsense!” Madame Evans raised her cane and slammed it heavily on the ground, scolding with a gloomy face.
“Xaviera, who allowed you to speak like this! So many elders are present; it’s not your place to speak! Marrying into the Sutton Family would be a step up for you, and yet you dare to be unwilling?”
Madame Evans walked up to her, lowering her voice: “Xaviera, you’ve been abandoned by Moore already, who in Libanan would still want to marry you? I told you not to reveal your past with Moore, but you stubbornly refused to listen. Now you’re suffering the consequences, not only unable to marry but tarnishing the Evans family’s reputation as well!”
“Mr. Edwin Sutton doesn’t care about your past and is willing to marry you. It’s your good fortune. Once married, you’ll become Mrs. Edwin Sutton and the marriage will benefit the Evans family. It’s a win-win situation! In any case, we have already accepted the betrothal gifts from the Sutton family, and you can’t back out! You must marry him!”
Mag Evans gently persuaded, “Sister, just agree to it. Grandma is doing this for your own good, and the Evans family is already in trouble. As a member of the Evans family, you should contribute too.”
Xaviera always knew the Evans family members were thick-skinned, but she never expected them to be so brazen. Their faces were thicker than a city wall, impervious even to machine-gun fire.
So, she was to marry Mr. Edwin Sutton in exchange for money, while Mag used her money to manage a company and lived in comfort with Moore Mamet?
Was it the Evans family members who were crazy or had she lost her mind?
Seeing Xaviera remain silent, Rose Campbell’s relatives couldn’t help but laugh while covering their mouths.
“Before, Xaviera was so arrogant and even confronted Mag. Now she must be dumbfounded. She used to be single and carefree, but now she’s going to be forced to marry Mr. Edwin Sutton.”
“What a pity! It’s because she doesn’t have a mother. Her deceased mother was also a miserable person. What’s the use of creating huge wealth? In the end, it’s not Xaviera who gets to enjoy it, but Mag and Rose Campbell controlling the Evans family.”
“Xaviera may be the Miss of the Evans family on the surface, but in reality, she is destined to be sacrificed. Becoming Mrs. Edwin Sutton might sound nice, but I heard… Edwin Sutton is a pervert who likes torturing women. He has been married twice, and both wives were tortured to death. Just look at that face of his; looking at it a few more times would give you nightmares!”
“Haha! That bitch Xaviera deserves to marry someone like Edwin Sutton. Maybe if she serves him well, she can live a few more years! …Ah!”
Xaviera flicked her wrist, discreetly retracting the silver needle. Several people couldn’t help but scream, but her face remained indifferent, “Are you sure you want me to get married?”
“You must marry!”
“But… I’m already married!”
Xaviera casually said, “Even if you are illiterate, you should understand the law. I’m already married, so to marry again would be a crime of bigamy, right? For the sake of the company’s interests, you are forcing a married woman to marry Edwin Sutton. Is this appropriate? Madame Evans, Mr. Evans, if you insist on this, why don’t we meet in court and see who ends up being humiliated?”
Everyone fell silent.
What? Xaviera is married? Since she’s already married, why does the Evans family still want to force her to marry Mr. Edwin Sutton? Isn’t that too shameless!
Xaviera’s eyes were cold, “Mag, so, it was your idea to make me marry Mr. Edwin Sutton, right?”
The Evans family members felt guilty, and everyone present immediately understood that the proposal for Xaviera to marry Mr. Edwin Sutton had come from Mag.
Although they were all friends and family of the Evans family, they couldn’t help but complain. Mag, an illegitimate daughter, had snatched Xaviera’s father, her fiancé, and her company.
Now, she wouldn’t even spare Xaviera and wanted to marry her off to that beast, Edwin Sutton, using her value to the utmost.
Mag could clearly feel the scorching gazes of everyone present, and her face instantly turned ashen, her body trembling with anxiety, “I, I didn’t…”
Immediately afterward, she squeezed out a few tears and sobbed in grievance, “Sister, please don’t…misunderstand me. I know that…I owe you. You used to be Moore’s fiancée, but after you were abandoned, you impulsively married a random person in anger. I…wuwuwu…”
