Kevin got up and left the room. Bella breathed a long sigh of relief and followed him out.
Outside the door, the person in charge who led her over just now led another woman in. When she saw Kevin, she was surprised and asked, “Young master, aren’t you going to pick?”
“She’s the one.”
He pointed backwards, and Bella became the focus.
She saw the jealousy and incredulity in the eyes of the woman who had lost her chance, as well as the surprise of two principals who were relieved, and she held a faint smile calmly.
“Miss Burne-Brown, please come with us to the main hall to meet Blanche.”
Bella nodded, meaningfully looked askance at the poker-faced Kevin, and left with the two principals …
This was a rich family. A son picked daughter-in-law, and his mother also had to check.
Magnificent as if it was the main hall of the palace-like villa, on the navy blue leather sofa sat a graceful and elegant old woman, not unlike the legendary evil mother-in-law, while she had a rare affable smile on her face.
“Blanche, this young lady is the one the young master picked.”
The person in charge reported respectfully. She got up and looked up and down at the lady in front of her and asked kindly, “Which family are you from?”
“I’m Wilson’s eldest daughter from the Burne-Browna. My name is Bella.”
“How old are you this year?”
“I’m 24 years old.”
“Were you just scared of my son?”
“No, Kevin isn’t that scary.”
Blanche opened her eyes wide in surprise and asked joyfully, “Aren’t you afraid of him?”
“No, we just had a nice chat.”
“Oh my god, it’s great…” She grabbed Bella’s hands and said sincerely, “Then my son will be taken care of by you. After you marry him, our whole family will treat you well.”
“Thank you, Mrs. Jones-Sharps.”
Bella went out of the gate of the the Jones-Sharps villa, and the warm sunshine outside welcomed her. She closed her eyes and said silently in her heart: Mother, I did it.
Seeing her return triumphantly, Colin couldn’t stop smiling, praising her straightforwardly for having a good fortune and marrying into a good family.
If you married a good family, you may not get a good husband. The better family you got in, the worse you would end up. Bella listened to her flattery and only found it ironic.
They wanted her to live low and humble, but she preferred to live noble and supreme. One day, she would let all those people who had once bullied her pay the price.
——
Radisson Hotel. The wedding of the the Jones-Sharps was held here.
The bride was a generous and beautiful woman. The pure white wedding dress set off her virtuous and gentle, and there were not many guests in the lobby. But each looked a big shot. There was no MC for the wedding. The groom with a glass of wine to socialize. If not the bride’s dress, it would let people mistake it for a buffet banquet.
Kevin didn’t want to hold the wedding, but his mother insisted on it. Although he married for the seventh time, the daughter-in-law married for the first time. So she didn’t want to let her seventh daughter-in-law feel wronged.
The wedding was held today after they only met yesterday, and the flash marriage was nothing more than that.
“Hello sister-in-law, I’m Lena. I’m your future husband’s sister.”
A simple and lovely girl suddenly showed up in front of Bella. She had a sweet smile on her fair face, her big eyes clear and transparent, shining brightly.
“Hello.” She smiled, and liked this sister-in-law at first glance.
“You look so stylish and beautiful. I hope this time it will be longer…”
Being startled, she asked cautiously, “What do you mean be longer?”
“All of my brother’s previous women were divorced shortly after getting married, so I don’t expect you to be with him forever, but it’s good to stay a little longer.”
“And how long does the longest marriage last?”
Lena tilted her head to think, and before she could answer, a cold voice came from behind Bella, “You should be asked to the person concerned who knows it best.”
Kevin’s handsome face flashed with ghastly smile, making her afraid.
“It was no more than three months, so you enjoy the time.”
