Her things?
Yunis furrowed his brows even deeper.
“Uncle Chen, what’s going on here?” Rorey raised her voice as she questioned the butler by her side.
Why were her things piled up in a disorderly mess there? She hadn’t said that she was moving.
“Um… ” Uncle Chen looked at Yunis. His expression was awkward, as if he did not know how to answer.
At this moment, a cold voice rang out. “It was I who asked the servants to move them here.”
Yunis and Rorey looked in the direction of the voice. They saw the mistress of the Ji family, Quinta Qin, walk down the stairs slowly and stop before them.
“Auntie, what do you mean by this?” Rorey pointed at the pile and asked.
“What do I mean?” Quinta Qin glanced at her coldly and said with an icy snort. “Our Ji family is too small for you. We can’t keep you here.”
Quinta Qin had lost all her gentleness and the affection she had had two days ago. She had become cold and harsh.
Rorey was no fool. In a moment, she understood why her attitude had changed.
But she was no doormat either.
She leaned to one side, grabbing Yunis’s hand and shaking it. She said in a very aggrieved tone, “Yunis, look at Auntie. How can she move my things and throw them here?”
Yunis gave her a sidelong glance before turning to look at his mother. There was a look of disapproval on his face. “Mom, you shouldn’t have moved Rorey’s things without her consent.”
Although his feelings for Rorey had waned, he did not want to have an acrimonious falling-out with her. It would be too ugly a scene.
But his mother seemed to have given it little thought. She was set on throwing Rorey out.
“So what if I touched her stuff?” Quinta Qin glared at her hatefully and said in a tone of contempt, “I even think touching her stuff would dirty my hands.”
“Mom!” Yunis looked at her, very displeased.
“Why? Did I say something wrong? She doesn’t realize she’s just a third party with loose baggage from the family. What right does she have to be our Ji family’s daughter-in-law? I don’t know what you were thinking then. Rosiley will always be the real daughter of the family, their true heiress. Had you married her, the Group would have been yours eventually.”
As she said this, Quinta Qin became really angry. The more she thought of Rorey, the more she found her an eyesore.
Rorey had finally heard Quinta Qin’s real thoughts. since she was already being so candid, why would she need to swallow her pride and suffer in silence?
She shook off Yunis’s hand and shot an icy glare at Quinta Qin. Her lips curled into a cold smile. “Auntie, you’re Yunis’s mother. That was why I respected you. But now, it seems I no longer need to.
“From the very beginning, I knew you and Uncle agreed to my marriage with Yunis because my father had promised 20% of the Group’s shares after our marriage.
“The two of you agreed to our wedding because I told you I would inherit the Group. In your eyes, I am nothing more than a pawn for your family to use to take over the group.”
Rorey had said so much in one breath. Yunis’s face turned dark after listening to her. The expression in his eyes as he watched her turned complicated.
As for Quinta Qin, her expression alternated between green and white. She clearly had not been expecting her to understand everything.
Rorey had said everything that had long been stifling her. She could not help feeling comfortable after that.
since everything had been said so candidly…
Her eyes swept over the pile of things and she said to the butler, “Uncle Chen, get a few men to move my things upstairs. I’m engaged to Yunis and will always be a daughter-in-law of the Ji family, whether alive or dead.”
Then she turned to smile at Quinta. “Don’t you think so, Auntie?”
Quinta Qin narrowed her eyes and bellowed harshly, “No one moves her things.”
Then she stared coldly at Rorey. “Your engagement with Yunis is canceled. Henceforth, you will no longer be Yunis’s fiancée. Please get out of our home.”
“Canceled?” Rorey could not help but raise her voice. “Did you ask me? Did I agree to call off the engagement?”
“It will be canceled whether you agree to it or not. You’re not worthy of Yunis.”
Quinta Qin’s words gave her no room to negotiate.
“When I was pregnant back then, why didn’t you say I was not worthy of this family?”
Rorey found her words to be totally absurd!
