The person who burst out cackling was neither Corinne nor Jeremy, but Bowen, who had failed to hold himself back at that moment. Despite his old age, that was the first time he had ever seen such an ordinary-looking yet incredibly self- confident woman.

It was truly an eye-opener!

Bowen cleared his throat in embarrassment, suppressed his out-of-character laugh, and said, “Ahem. My apologies, sir. I’ll go check if dinner is ready for you and the missus…”

He then excused himself solemnly.

Jeremy narrowed his eyes and glanced icily at Sherlyn. “In what aspect do you think you’re better than my wife? Your character? Your intelligence, maybe? Or perhaps your image? Is there anything about you that can compare to even a single strand of my wife’s hair?”

His words severely hurt Sherlyn’s self-esteem, and although she also knew that Corinne was frustratingly good-looking, she believed herself to be quite attractive as well. Otherwise, she would not have been able to enter the entertainment industry and become a star.

‘Why does Jeremy look down on me?! Corinne has such bad taste in clothing and always looks poor, so what’s so good. about her?’

Lilliana could not stand seeing Sherlyn being wronged, so she walked up to them and said, “Why aren’t you admitting to your actions? You sent someone to our house to deliver the

dowry and inform us that you wanted to marry our daughter, which was why we organized a huge feast! In the end, you Sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ FindNʘᴠᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

never showed up that day, and our family was turned into a laughing stock by all our relatives and friends. You’re the one to blame for that!”

Jeremy raised his cold black eyes, and looked at the middle – aged woman who earlier self-professed as being his ‘mother- in-law’.

“The Carews don’t just have one daughter, do they? Haven’t you ever considered that my dowry was meant for your youngest daughter from the very beginning?”

Lilliana was startled and speechless. When they mentioned’ daughter of the Carews’, the first person to pop up in her mind was her biological daughter-Sherlyn. She never would have thought that it would be the country girl-Corinne.

Jeremy gently held Corinne’s shoulder while she was in hist embrace. He raised his hand and used his long fingers to tuck the lock of stray hair behind her ear.

Then, he said, “You ought to know that the only reason you can set foot on these tiles under your feet is because you’re my wife’s family! You’ll lose that privilege if you keep treating my wife like this. She’s better off without a family like yours.”

He then called out to Bowen, “See them off, Bowen!”

Bowen duly came out of the kitchen and beckoned some of the servants to help him ‘see them off’. Lilliana immediately panicked when she saw that, and immediately changed her attitude. “Mister Jeremy, you misunderstood us. Let’s take it easy and talk…”

The Holdens’ servants had endured their behavior for an

entire day, and they were not going to give the Carews another chance to speak since Jeremy had already instructed the

servants to see them off!

After being dragged away by the servants, Sherlyn came back to her senses and yelled begrudgingly, “Corinne deceived you, Mister Jeremy! I’m your bride! Me! Not her!”

Marvin took the opportunity to break free and turned around to run back to Jeremy.

He no longer dared to act all high and mighty and said with a smile on his face, “Mister Jeremy, I’m still your father-in-law regardless of which one of my daughters marries you. That will not change!”
