“Marilyn, you must have been bewitched by this man! After you appeared in the headlines, I sent
people to look into this young man's information. As it turns out, he's someone living off a woman! He
was unable to get three hundred thousand worth of a betrothal gift, so he went after the bridesmaid
instead. Once he found out that you're Zyaire Schmidt's daughter, he started targeting you. Now, he
has finally won over your foolish heart!”
Marilyn's younger twin sister, Evelyn Schmidt, told Marilyn about the information she received from
their father.
A sheepish look appeared on Harold's face after he heard her.
The results of the Schmidt family's investigation were why he was feeling awkward.
What have they even looked into? Everything they found out is just surface-level details. Moreover, the
rest are speculations made from these details.
“Evelyn, you've got this wrong. Things aren't the way you think they are,” Marilyn quickly corrected
upon hearing her sister.
Yet, in her panic, she became at a loss as to where to start explaining.
“Come in here first!”
At the sight of her sister's disbelief, Evelyn quickly towed Marilyn back into the house.
She also dragged along their mother.
“Wait for me here, Harold. I'll be out soon.”
Marilyn, who was pushed into the house by her sister, could only turn around and ask Harold to wait for
her outside of the house.
She wanted to take the opportunity to explain her relationship with Harold to her mother and sister.
However, Harold ended up waiting for two hours. When Marilyn came back out, she had a gloomy look
on her face. She then brought Harold into the house.
Once Marilyn brought Harold into a rather spacious guest room, she forced a smile onto her face and
said to him, “Please stay in this room for now. It's been a tiring day, and you should rest first. All of the
Schmidts will be at our family banquet later. Will you attend it with me later?”
Her mother and sister never reappeared.
“I'm fine with that,” Harold told her.
He saw it as an opportunity to caution Zyaire and the rest of the Schmidts against pressuring Marilyn
into doing anything she didn't want to do.
After Marilyn was gone, Harold took a brief nap.
Before he knew it, it was already four in the evening.
As they were transitioning from late fall to early winter, the sun was setting earlier, prompting an earlier
dinner time at five. At half past four, it was time for everyone to make their way to Zyaire's mansion.
Marilyn's twin sister and mother only reappeared when they were departing.
In no time, the four of them were in the main room.
By then, four tables had already been set up in the main room.
Zyaire had four wives, three sons, three daughters-in-law, nine daughters, and seven sons-in-law.
Besides Marilyn and Evelyn, the rest of his daughters were already married.
Including Harold, the Schmidts alone made up twenty-eight people.
If they were to include the higher-ranking servants—the butler, the chief and the deputy chief of the
security guards, as well as Zyaire's secretary—there would be a total of thirty-two people, which was
just enough for four tables.
With the exception of a few sons-in-law who were still on their way, everyone else had arrived.
When everyone else saw Marilyn and the others, they all began to cast strange looks at Marilyn and
Harold.
“That's the man Marilyn's been flirting around with, isn't he?”
“That's him, all right. I heard that he's a loser living off a woman and that his main targets are daughters
of wealthy families! Apparently, he's quite successful too. You can say that he's impressive, albeit
unconventionally.”
The gossiping whispers were heard by Marilyn, Evelyn, and her mother, and they were embarrassed by
that.
In response, Evelyn gave Marilyn and Harold a vicious glare.
While Marilyn was increasingly flustered, Harold quietly followed her around as if he couldn't hear
anything the people around them were saying.
When Marilyn's mother saw that the table her husband was at still had two seats empty, she decided
that it would be good for Harold to familiarize himself with the Schmidts. Thus, she said to Marilyn,
“Marilyn, bring Harold to Dad's table and introduce our family members to him later.”
