"Essie, I'm your elder after all. Don't make up stories here. You're slinging mud at me." The veins on
Elizabeth's forehead were throbbing violently.
"You're good at doing this. It's not the first time. I've kept the evidence. But for the sake of your future
daughter-in-law, Eva, I don't want to pursue it anymore. Please stop where it should stop." After saying
that, Essie changed her tone slightly, "As for Wendy, in the past, the royal family was most afraid of the
relatives of an emperor on the side of his mother or wife to involve in politics, and now the rich families
are the same. Aunt Elizabeth, I can understand that you want the relative on your side could get a
share of Xu family. Because of our Xu family, your mother's family has been prosperous. Why do you
ask too much? There are too many relatives in the group, and it will be difficult for eldest brother to
handle
the business in the Xu's group. So it will be better for the grand daughter-in-law of the Xu family to be
simple."
This was equivalent to revealing Elizabeth's intention completely. How smart Vicki and Baron were?
How could they not know?
Elizabeth was so angry that her mouth almost tilted to the ear. She took a deep breath and forced
herself to calm down. What Essie said was to make her lose her mind. She couldn't fall into a trap.
"Our Xu family is a rich and powerful family. Marriage requires a good match. Vinton's wife must be
born in a good family. Eva is not only from a single parent family, but also from a poor family. How can
she match Vinton? "
With a sneer in her heart, Essie thought she had forgot which slum she was from as soon as she
became a mistress. But today, she didn't intend to reveal her past, in case of embarrassing Vinton and
Baron.
"Eva did come from a poor family when she was a child. The one who caused her to be in such a
situation is her heartless father, York, who only wants to flatter the rich and powerful. He is also your
relative, and his another daughter, Shelly, has been chosen by you as your daughter-in-law. Since you
don't dislike Shelly, why do you dislike her half-sister? "
Hearing this, Vicki frowned slightly. "If you don't mention it, I almost forget that this girl is the daughter
of York."
Baron lit a cigar, took a drag on it and said, "Our daughter-in-law values moral quality, not family
fortune. As long as she is clean and upright, everything else is a trifle. It's rare for Vinton to change his
mind and want to get married, so that mom can have a great grandson as soon as possible. "
As the leader, he had a long-term view. It was the best thing for the Xu family that Cathy and Vinton got
along well with each other. As Cathy's best friend, the marriage between Eva and Vinton would only
strengthen the relationship between brother and sister and would not be sow dissension between them
by Elizabeth.
Hearing her son's words, Vicki smiled and turned to Vinton, "You'd better hurry up and better to have
two children in three years." Obviously, she agreed.
Vinton smiled and put his arm around her shoulder, "Okay, grandma, I will let you have a great
grandson as soon as possible." As he spoke, he reached out to hold Eva's hand under the table.
Eva lowered her head and said nothing. She didn't plan to have a baby so soon. But Essie had told her
that Vicki was the granddaughter of the Xu family. The most important thing for her after she married
into the Xu family was to please her, so she kept silent whatever Vicki said.
Elizabeth clenched her fists and her fingertips pierced into the flesh. She still had many plans. As long
as she was there, Eva would never be able to marry into the Xu family as she wished. Valery was
connected with her mother. It was impossible for Eva, a bitch, to be her sister-in-law. She had a lot of
ways to torture her to death.
Alice remained silent all the time. It was obvious that Elizabeth wanted to help Valery take over the Xu
group, which was not good for her. She would benefit a lot from the internal strife between them and
Vinton.
What's more, she was most concerned about her marriage with Fell. Baron didn't care about her at all.
It seemed that he didn't intend to marry her into the Qin family at all. She found that Essie seemed to
have a great impact on Baron. Perhaps he wanted to 'atone for his sin' and let her return to the family,
so Baron loved her very much. If Essie could say something to herself, maybe Baron would pay
attention to her marriage.
After the party, when Essie was about to get in the car, she quickly came over and held her arm.
"Essie, we haven't seen each other for a long time. Let's take a walk together."
Essie nodded, closed the door and went to a nearby park with her.
"Sister, how are you doing recently?" Essie asked with a smile.
"Not so good." Alice curled her lips. "I think you care about the marriage of Vinton and Eva. I'm your
biological sister with the same father and mother. Why don't you care about me?"
With a sigh, Essie said, "I give you my advice. But you think I'm against you, so I have to leave you
alone."
Alice sat on the stone bench, picked up a withered leaf on the table and played with it. "I've thought
about it these days. You want me to quit the Xu group and be a rich lady who takes care of my
husband and children. It's actually good. Women should put their family first."
"It's good that you can think so." A relieved smile appeared on Essie's face.
"It's useless for me to think about it. Every time when it comes to marriage, Fell will try his best to
deceive me. What do you think I should do?" Alice lowered her head in frustration.
Essie knew that she had fallen into a dead end. She could only think of no one but Fell. If he continued
to suggest her to separate with Fell, it would definitely make her unhappy and the two of them would
break up in discord.
Anyway, she was her biological sister. She couldn't just watch her being bullied by Fell without asking.
"Sister, haven't you asked him what he is going to do?"
"I've asked him. He said that he wouldn't consider getting married until the development project of the
Qin's group in Australia was completed. But that was a big project and it would take several years to
finish it. He just wanted to fool me, didn't he?" Alice said gloomily.
Essie sighed. In the past, Alice was as cold as ice and otherworldly as fireworks. Now, for the sake of
love, she had changed a lot.
"Sister, nothing forcibly done is going to be agreeable. If he doesn't want to get married, it's useless to
force him. The most important thing for you now is to win back his heart."
"If dad is willing to help me talk to the Qin family, then Fell won't dare not to marry me," Alice said.
"Have you ever mentioned it to daddy?" A deep light flashed through Essie's dark eyes.
"Daddy is so busy. I can't even find a chance to mention it." Alice pouted and held her hand. "Essie, I
can see that you are the one dad loves most now. Can you help me bring it up if you have the
chance?"
Essie glanced at her. It was not that she didn't want to help her sister, but that she didn't want to face
Baron alone. They were just related by blood, nothing else.
"I... will find an opportunity," she said in a low voice.
Taking it as a yes, a smile appeared on Alice's face. She was a smart woman. She could put aside her
personal resentment against Essie and solve her lifelong problem first. When she became the wife of
the crown prince of the Qin family, she would have the ability to compete with her, this hostess of the
Rong family.
After Essie went back, she sat on the sofa, lost in thought. Noticing that she was thinking about
something, Zac came over and put his arm around her shoulder. "Honey, what are you thinking about?"
With a smile, Essie came to her senses and said, "The wedding of Eva and my brother has been
settled. I'll ask aunt Bonney to help pick a good day. If Mr. Baron and Mrs. Vicky have no objection,
they can start to prepare for the wedding." After a pause, she changed her tone, "But we haven't
settled down my sister's marriage yet. Fell has been procrastinating."
"When did the icy lady of the Xu clan become a bitter melon vine?" Walt sneered.
"Love will make people numb and lose their mind, won't it?" Essie shrugged.
"You are right." A smile played at the corners of Zac's mouth. As the number one cold man in Dragon
City, he was also conquered by this muddled-headed fool.
"My sister has promised me that she will stay at home to take care of her husband and son after she
gets married and won't ask anything about the Xu group." In fact, Essie wanted to dispel Zac's worry
about Alice.
The marriage between the Xu family and the Qin family would more or less arouse the nerves of the
Rong family. If the Rong family knew that she had connections in the middle, they would definitely be
unhappy.
In the wealthy clans, interests were always the first.
Zac was keenly aware of her thoughts. His sharp eyes could see through everything, and he could pry
into all the little secrets in her heart. "Alice asked you to help her marry into the Qin family, right?"
Raising her eyes to look at him, Essie said, "She is my sister. Do you think I should help her or not?"
"Honey, are you naive? Do you really believe that she will stay at home to take care of her husband
and children? " Zac sneered. Once it came to family issues, her muddled brain would be short out.
"Why not? As for women, family is the most important," Essie said.
"Even if she agrees, the Qin family won't agree. You should know why the Qin family married her." Zac
pursed his lips and said seriously, "It's understandable if she and Fell really love each other. But now
it's clear that Fell only uses her. She won't have a good result even if she marries him. You don't have
to step in the mire. You have to remember that you are not only the sister of Alice, but also my wife, the
hostess of the Rong family. "
His tone was like a warning. Essie was very clear that as long as the big devil denied it, there was no
room for negotiation. If she violated the imperial edict, she would be disrespectful.
However, after all, Alice was her biological sister. It was not a good idea for her to spend her youth
being dragged by Fell.
"Fell will come to the celebrity ball tomorrow. I'll go to see what he thinks? If he doesn't love my sister
but just for the interests of the family, I won't care about them. " Otherwise, she had to worry about her
family. After all, she always valued her family the most.
However, she never expected that she would be involved in an inexplicable battle.
family. After all, she always valued her family the most.
