Chapter 41
"This is for you, take it!" Jack laughed and thrust the money into Joan's arms.
Fiona's eyes sparkled as she watched this. He walked over quickly and said, "You brat, you only give your mother money now that you have it? We have taken care of your children and suffered so much, why did you not give them to us? ? You have to give us some for all the money we spent on your kids, right?"
Jenny the maid couldn't take it anymore. He muttered, "You haven't worked for the past few years and have no income. Kylie was basically raised by Miss and their income was earned from Miss who went out and would scavenge for her and Joan's salary through her office. You haven't spent a single cent, how dare you ask for compensation!"
Upon hearing that, Joan angrily said, "Hey, stupid girl, what are you talking about? You're just a waitress, what does this have to do with you?"
"Mom, if you want money, you can have it. However, you must admit this daughter-in-law. Otherwise, why would he give you money?" Selena walked over and rolled her eyes towards her mother.
Fiona's expression changed after hearing that. He said coldly, "It's just a little bit of money, doesn't mean I've never found such an amount before. You want me to admit him to this little money? It can't be!"
Jack doesn't care about his abusive mother-in-law. He gave the bag to Selena and said, "Take the money and spend it, there should be enough for groceries and to enroll Kylie to school. There should be enough for some time."
"How much money is there here?" Selena lifted the heavy bag. He's dumbfounded. Is this weight all from the cash in the bag?
Fiona was no longer calm. Before Jack could say anything, he walked over and picked up the bag to pour the contents.
Looking at the cash on the ground, Fiona took a sharp breath and asked, "It's a lot of money, how much is it?"
Jack laughed forcefully and said, "Not much, I pulled a million dollars, gave my mother 50 thousand dollars for change, and there are still 950 thousand dollars left!"
Fiona swallowed her saliva. He almost cried. "950 thousand dollars, it has been a long time I have not seen this much money! It's good, I don't have to live frugally anymore!"
"Mom, take. That's a lot of money. If someone else sees it, we'll get in trouble!" Selena reminded her mother anxiously while quietly breathing a sigh of relief. "It's great, Kylie can now learn in kindergarten better."
"It seems you're not useful at all. This should be the money you received from leaving the army, right? The government's good enough for you to give you a million dollars. Along with the money you gave Selena for clothes should be about 1.2 million rupiah" Fiona said as she took the cash to put in the bag.
To him, Jack must have pulled everything he had to please them and made them acknowledge him as their son-in-law. He must have wanted to impress her.
After deep thought, she said, "Jack, these 950 thousand dollars will be the compensation for raising Kylie for the past five years. After all, this is your son, so you have to pay for it. Don't you dare think so. I'll acknowledge you as our son-in-law for this money. I reiterate my point, if you can't spend 10 million dollars on dowry at Selena's 70th grandfather's birthday party, you still have to get out of the Taylor family home. . Understood?"
Chapter 42
"Huh, don't worry Mom. I mean what I said! Take this money for Selena's groceries and register Kylie for school!" jack said with a laugh.
Fiona grunts. "Hmph, as long as you realize it!"
Before the cash was taken, a young man suddenly walked in with a young girl who had a tattoo on her arm. They both looked like they were about 18 or 19 years old. The young man had blonde hair with ear piercing. It's earrings.
"Wow, that's a lot of money!" The young man ran after seeing the cash. He picked it up and said excitedly, "Oh my God, this is so much! There were some in the bag too. There must be a million dollars here, right? I haven't seen this much money in a long time!"
"Who are you? Put it!" Seeing the young man's face made Jack angry. He looked straight at the man and spoke coldly.
"You, who are you?" The young man looked back at Jack and was so shocked by Jack's sharp gaze that he dropped the cash he was holding.
"Jack, what makes you mad? Don't you recognize Ben anymore?" Fiona glared at Jack.
"Ben?" Jack was stunned for a moment before realizing. "Oh, it's Ben, he was only 14 when I left. She's so tall now and grown up, I can't recognize her!"
"F * ck, here I think who this person is that is mad at me. You are a useless brother-in-law!" Ben flinched and continued, "I thought you were dead. Who knew you would make it back! For five years, you've made our family suffer!"
The young girl came and stood beside Ben. He checks on Jack and says, "Ben, is this the living, useless daughter-in-law who became one only to earn a million dollars for her mother's medical expenses, then go to war the next day?"
Ben's eyes were filled with hostility. "Yes, this bastard who initially agreed to a fake marriage, but took advantage of my sister on their wedding night because she was a little drunk. She made my sister pregnant. If it wasn't for these bastards, our family wouldn't have been driven out by Old Master Taylor. We will stay in our big house and live a good life!"
"So this bastard, how evil!" The woman looked at Jack angrily and said, "I can't believe you're still shameless enough to come back. If it wasn't for you, would we be living in a place like this? If I were you, I'd rather die in a war than go back and humiliate myself!"
"Xena, who did you say that to? I was drunk that night but I know for a fact that I made the first move. I'm mad at Grandpa for treating our marriage like a deal! My fault. I was too naive, and I caused my mother, father, and brother to live frugally with me for the past five years. I will try my best to make up for it from now on but it has happened and I have taken responsibility for it . You can't blame Jack for this!" Selena couldn't stand it anymore after hearing what Xena said. He looked into his eyes and said, "No matter what, it's my family's business, you're nobody to bother with, right?"
"Ben, look, look at your brother. He said I was nobody. I'm not married to you yet and she's been this bad to me. When I marry you in the future, who knows how she will treat me. then?" Xena's upset. He pulls Ben's arm with his hand and goes berserk.
"Sister, what are you talking about? Xena is my girlfriend. Even though she hasn't married me yet, it will happen sooner or later. We will be a family in the future. How could you tell him that?"
Chapter 43
"Moreover, Jack is the one who put you in this position but you're still siding with him. I really don't understand what you think" Ben continued speaking on Xena's behalf.
"No matter what, we have a marriage certificate. We are a legitimate husband and wife so we are a family! You said it yourself, Xena hasn't married you yet. We'll just be a family in the future, not now. So he shouldn't be interfering in our family business right now!" Selena was still thinking about it. It seemed like he was prejudiced against Xena.
"I don't care, it's your happiness. If you're willing to marry a soldier, a useless man, we can't do anything about it! Aren't you the cause of where you are today? 'don't do such a stupid thing just yet, you must be the leader of the Taylor Group by now! The beautiful chief was no longer like him, what a shame!" Xena said as she crossed her arms in front of her chest.
"If you don't want to care, shut up!" Jack said coldly after seeing how he treated Selena.
"You ..." Xena was so angry that she started panting. His expression was terrible.
"You bastard, you brought our family into this mess and not only did you not apologize, you upset my wife. You asked to be beaten, didn't you!" Seeing what was happening, Ben who was usually protective of his girlfriend, walked over and clenched his fists. He threw a punch at Jack.
"Ben, are you crazy? No matter what, he's still your brother-in-law. He did nothing wrong at the time. We were both drunk..." Selena is now upset to see Ben want to start a fight.
Meanwhile, Jack bends back in front of Ben's fist. He easily avoided the attack.
"I can't believe this!" Seeing that he didn't hit Jack, Ben got up and pointed his fist at Jack again. Unfortunately, his attack means nothing to Jack. No matter how he tries, Jack seems to know where Ben is trying to hit him and avoid him at all times.
"Damn it, if you're a man, stop dodging my punches. What kind of hero are you if you avoid my blows!" Ben panted heavily after throwing a few empty punches. He stopped and placed one hand on his waist while pointing at Jack with the other finger.
"Seeing that you are Selena's brother, I don't want to hit you. Otherwise, you will fall now!"
"Looking at how you're doing right now, you shouldn't get too excited about exercising. With a body like yours, you must have died a hundred times in the war!" jack said coldly.
"I ..." Ben is upset, but remember that the man standing in front of him has spent five years at war. How could he beat that?
Ben clapped his hands and said, "I won't waste my time on a disrespectful person like you!"
Ben turned to look at the bag of cash and asked excitedly, "Mom, where did the money come from?"
Chapter 44
"Yes ma'am, where's the money?" Xena ran over and affectionately called Fiona "mother".
Fiona was stunned for a moment before looking excited. "Girl, what are you calling me? Didn't you call me Aunt before?"
Xena became embarrassed and said embarrassedly, "Auntie, I'm sorry. I've long wanted to call you 'mom', but I've never been brave enough to do it. Do it now!"
"Hey, that's good, son. You should call me 'mother' and not 'auntie'. Your father and I like you, so call me 'mom' from now on. You were in a serious relationship with Ben and you're getting married someday, right?" Fiona was so happy that the smile on her face was so bright.
"Mom, you haven't told me yet, where did the money come from? Why is there so much money? Could it be that there is a rich master somewhere who is trying to marry my sister and give this as a dowry?" ask Ben excitedly. It seems like he really wants his sister to marry a rich man so that his family can live better.
"No, it's not a dowry!" Fiona forced a smile before looking at Jack and said, "This is Jack's money for Kylie. There are 950 thousand dollars here, he should have given this amount!"
"He gave this?" Ben looked back at Jack with a strange look. "Can he really withdraw this much money? Does being a soldier pay this much?"
"You don't know this, but I've heard that those who leave the army will be compensated. Those who spent shorter time in the army could earn around 100 to 200 thousand dollars so since Jack spent five years in the army, he had to earn more!"
"If this bastard could earn a million dollars, I think he must have achieved meritorious service in the army. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to get this much!" Fiona smiled and lifted the heavy bag as she said, "After all, this bastard is a bit affectionate. He brought some money back for us as compensation. If he dies in the war, we won't get anything!"
Ben nodded. "Since he has the decency to bring money, it's okay for him. However, Jack, don't you dare think that making me call you my sister-in-law is this easy!"
"The money was for Selena to buy groceries and enroll Kylie for school. Selena should keep this!" Jack said coldly while looking at Fiona's grip on the money bag.
"You don't need this kind of money for shopping and school, do you? Even if you see a fancy kindergarten, it costs about 10 or 20 thousand dollars per semester, right?" said Fiona.
"What is the best price?" Jack asked Selena.
"It's definitely about 50 grand, but it's for a year!" Selena forced a smile and said, "Do you really need to go to such a good school?"
"Of course, Kylie should go to a better school!" Jack nodded and looked at Fiona. Jack's gaze threatened; even Fiona did not dare to look straight at him.
"Well, well, it's 100 grand for Kylie's school fees and living expenses for now. When you run out of money, take it from me!"
"I'll hold onto that money, otherwise, I won't feel safe about it!" Fiona counted 100 thousand dollars and gave it to Selena. He insisted not to give up another 850 thousand dollars.
"Mom, there's still 850 grand and I'm out of money. Since there are so many, you should give me some, right?"
"In addition, Xena's been dating me for so long but I haven't bought her anything good" Ben said shamelessly.
"Well, well, it's 50 grand. Get a reward or something for Xena!"
Chapter 45
Fiona took out another 50 thousand dollars while smiling.
"Thank you Mother!" Xena happily thanked Fiona.
Jack ignores them and approaches Andrew. "Dad, I can heal your legs!"
"Can you really do it?" Of course, Andrew hoped his legs would recover. Now that Jack mentioned it, his overcast eyes lit up.
"Are you exaggerating? Even the orthopedic hospital chief looked at my father's leg and said there was nothing he could do. How can you cure it?"
Ben walked over and said, "I remember you used to be a deliveryman before serving in the army. After being a soldier for five years, you now know how to heal someone? Could it be that you joined the medical team to treat the wound?"
"No wonder he made it out alive after spending five years on the battlefield, he wasn't at all the frontline, he was just taking care of the wounded!" Xena crossed her arms in front of her chest and said cynically, "I think she's a hero, but she's just a backup, haha!"
Jack ignored the two and said to Andrew, "Dad, don't worry. You're Selena's father and that makes you my father too. I'll never hurt you!" Upon hearing such earnest words, Andrew seemed moved by Jack. Looks like he wants to try it.
"That may not be true, you've been putting us in hell for five years. Five years. Just imagine the number of days and nights!" Fiona reminded Jack in a sarcastic tone, "If your medical skills aren't normal and end up completely crushing your father's legs, it will really end for him!"
"Eh..." Andrew began to doubt. If Jack's skills don't meet his standards and worsen his legs, it will be over for him.
"Dad, I trust him, let him try!" Selena advises Andrew.
"All right, let's try. Since it's already in this condition, there's nothing worse than this!" Andrew sat on the stone bench next to him, rolled up his pants, and let Jack check his legs.
Jack looked and felt Andrew's feet before taking out a small box with a long needle inside.
"Is stabbing him with a silver needle enough? Don't I need a cure or something?" Seeing what was going on, Ben inevitably asked Jack.
"Can this prick damage my leg?" Andrew was a little worried.
"Don't worry, it's acupuncture, a type of treatment in Chinese medicine. It's magical. After this, I will massage your legs and dredge the blood vessels. You'll be healed in a few days!" Jack smiled. He's confident. Although the Taylor family has always underestimated her and can't wait to get her out of the family, Jack understands that she's the one who got Selena pregnant. Their families were expelled from the mansion and forced to live in such slums. He's responsible for that and if it's someone else, they'll blame Jack too.
Moreover, they were all Selena's family, so Jack did not want to ruin the relationship with them. After all, Andrew's feet became like that because of himself. He felt guilty about it. While Jack is taking care of Andrew, Fiona gets a call.
After hanging up the phone, he started jumping around in excitement. "Good, the butler of the Taylor family called. The old master asked us to go to the Dorsett Hotel for dinner with everyone! It's for celebration!"
Chapter 46
"Hotel Dorsett? The famous Dorsett Hotel in the city center? Five star hotel where the minimum expenditure is 100 thousand dollars?" Xena asked excitedly after hearing that.
"Of course, is there another Dorsett Hotel around here?" Fiona's face was filled with pride. He lamented, "Old master finally came to his senses and actually let us go to lunch. He never called us to anything worthy of celebration before this!"
"That's great, it seems Old Master Taylor is gradually accepting you guys!" Xena smiled excitedly before saying shyly, "Mom, can I follow you?"
"That's cool!" Fiona thought of something and said, "Right, it's still morning. Ben, bring Xena shopping, she shows up with you today!"
"Yes! Let's go and shop!" Ben grabbed 50 grand and immediately left with Xena.
"Mom, it's not a good idea to bring Xena, is it?" After the two left, Selena paused for a moment before saying, "They're still dating and not married, she's not yet part of our family!"
"What's so bad about that? They've been together for two or three years, so won't that happen soon?" Fiona continued, "Don't you see how happy Xena is when she hears she can go to a five-star hotel? He even shopped for it. He has a good performance, which will make us look better today. Besides, wouldn't he join the family sooner if we started treating him like that?"
"Good!" Selena knew that there was no point in arguing; her mother would not listen. Moreover, her mother did promise Xena that she could come today and based on her personality, Fiona would not change her mind.
"Done!" After acupuncture, Jack began massaging Andrew's legs. A warm and faint feeling flowed from Jack's palm to Andrew's foot and onto his bones.
"It doesn't hurt at all. I lost all feeling in this part of my leg and the doctor said that it would only get worse and I would be disabled. Who knew that I would feel something now!" Andrew felt something and his face was filled with excitement.
"really? Can you feel something this fast?" Fiona crossed her arms in front of her chest and said in disbelief, "Is it just an illusion? How come? He was just messing around and not prescribing anything for you. How can you be better?"
"It's not an illusion, is it? It's pretty obvious!" Andrew frowned. It was obvious that he felt somewhat unsure.
"Dad, don't worry. You'll feel better tomorrow and heal in about a week." Jack smiled and said confidently as he stood up.
"really? If that's the case, great!" Andrew's eyes sparkled after hearing what Jack said. She had never been this happy before because she thought that she had lost her legs for good. He had not expected that Jack's return would bring hope to him.
Chapter 47
"Young man, these are your words. If he doesn't recover by then, you should get lost!" Fiona said as she grabbed Jack's collar. He was a little excited too.
"Mom, you'll know if it works in two days!" Jack replied with a smile.
"Okay, let's see!" After saying that, Fiona looks into the bag of money and takes it back home to hide it.
As the day approaches noon, Ben returns with Xena and a few sets of clothes behind him. Xena looked even more beautiful than before. Kylie was wearing the clothes Jack bought yesterday. He looks classier than ever. After drying out the clothes she had put in the laundry yesterday, Selena put on a dress and her beautiful appearance instantly outperformed Xena.
"Sister, you are beautiful and definitely worthy of the title of the most beautiful woman in Eastfield. Your child is a few years old and your body still looks amazing. I can't say that you're married!" Xena walked over and immediately started praising Selena.
"I'm no match for young girls, you're more energetic!" Selena said indifferently. He doesn't care much about Xena.
"Let's go, let's go, we shouldn't be late and let the old master wait for us. Otherwise, they wouldn't be happy!" Fiona sees the time and they are late.
The group went and called a taxi. Soon after, they arrived at the entrance of a large hotel. The hotel is magnificent. In the sun, it looks extra shiny and classy.
"The people who eat here are rich and famous and we as the Taylor family rarely come here!" Andrew stood in the piazza outside the hotel and wailed. "It looks like the old master is no longer angry at us, so let's hope we can return to the Taylor family, sigh!"
"We can. Dad, let's go in?" Xena approached Andrew and called him 'father' affectionately. However, Jack realized Selena's wrinkles upon seeing this revealed.
…
Meanwhile at Michael's house, Ivan ran towards him and excitedly asked, "Master Wilson, how is it? Did you relax last night?"
"Liet? Haha, of course!" Michael sneered and replied cynically. He was still upset by last night's events.
Not only did he not get any girl, on top of his restaurant that was destroyed last night, the image of a man he was guarding in front of Selena was shattered. He might never get a chance with her again.
Ivan did not realize how angry Michael was right now. He continued with a smile, "Looking is good, relaxing is good. This cousin of mine has an amazing body so you must have taken some pictures of her, right? Just threaten him with them in the future and he will definitely come. I've thought about it for you, give her money every time and she'll gradually give up on you one day and finally marry you!"
"Look, here's the contract, let's sign it. I asked someone to make a new contract overnight according to our agreement yesterday!"
Ivan handed the contract to Michael with a smile. Michael looked at the contract, sneered, and tore it into pieces!
Chapter 48
"Hey, hey, what's up? Mr Wilson, why did you tear it? Didn't we agree to sign the contract today?" Ivan was stunned at the scene. His head was ringing and Taylor's family was waiting for him to come home and celebrate. Could all this be destroyed?
"Sign up **!" Master Wilson sat down on the sofa and said angrily, "Last night, I didn't even drink coffee or do anything I wanted. Not only was my reputation destroyed, my restaurant was destroyed and I did not even dare to say a word throughout the ordeal!"
"How come? What the hell's going on? I know that, don't you Jack? This bastard dared to destroy your restaurant? Wait, that's not true, where are your people? Don't you have much? they're no match for Jack?"
Iwan took a sharp breath. He thought Michael had success with Selena last night and didn't expect otherwise. He doesn't understand how this happened even after Selena's approval.
Michael became annoyed after thinking about what happened last night. "Jack didn't do it, he wouldn't have the guts for it. How could he have that ability? It was the second daughter of the Drake family, the***** Ask Drake!"
"No way, asked Drake? Why is he there?" Once again, Ivan was shocked upon hearing that it was Tanya. After all, it was the Drake family; there were many families trying to please them.
"This is what happened, this Drake asked by chance walked past our restaurant and saw that the interior design was good. Therefore, he decided to go in for a meal, but..." Desperate, Michael continues, "Ask Drake this so lifeless that he likes to go around causing trouble. He's a fucking bitch!"
Ivan finally understood what happened last night. He was silent for a moment before saying, "Master Wilson, look, it was an accident. None of us expected Tanya Drake to show up, right?"
He stopped and took out another contract from his briefcase. "Therefore, I cannot be blamed for that. Thank goodness I made a copy of the contract. Mr Wilson, let this go and sign it, okay? Okay well? Please remember all the years we've been friends!"
"Sign me **!"
Master Wilson did not hold back from humiliating Ivan. He turned his face away and said, "You're the one who gave me the bad idea of getting Selena and now I haven't got her yet. I also suffered a considerable loss in my restaurant. Really true?" You really think I'm still going to sign a contract with you? Based on the fact that I haven't asked for compensation to you, I've been quite compassionate about this! I used to have a good relationship with Selena, but now I'll never be able to get close to her again."
"But Mr. Wilson, my grandfather and the others thought I was going to sign the contract. They're waiting for me to come home and celebrate."
Ivan's face turned sour and pleaded, "I can't be blamed for this. If it wasn't for the Drake family's second daughter, wouldn't you have succeeded?"
"Take the guest out of here!"
…
Meanwhile, in the private rooms of the lively Dorsett Hotel.
Old Master Taylor was all smiling. The private room was large; it was large enough to fit three large tables. Everyone is happy.
"We'll just wait until Selena and Ivan's family arrive, and we'll start!"
Chapter 49
"Yes, even the champagne ran out. The old master had gone all-out this time paying a million dollars for each table, how lavish!"
"Ivan made his father proud this time. The profit from this project alone is 300 million dollars. This project is huge!"
The Taylor family talked about Ivan while Theodore looked satisfied.
At this moment, the door of the private room opened. Fiona and Andrew enter with Selena and the others.
"Fiona, aren't you a hotshot, making us all wait for you!" Just as they entered the room, a relative sneered and said that out loud.
Fiona smiled shyly and said, "I can't help it, it's a little jammed on the way here!"
Cecilia looked towards Gucci Selena's clothes and said, "Tsk, Selena, you are shameless, aren't you? You really have the guts to wear this fake stuff out of the house. If it was me, I wouldn't even dare to wear it. How humiliating. If someone finds out that it's fake, isn't it terrible?"
Fiona couldn't stand what she heard. He walked over and said, "Cecilia, don't you dare. It´s real. Even though our family is a little poor, this is the truth!"
"really? You are only a little poor, yet, you can still afford something that costs 100 to 200 thousand dollars? Why is it so hard to believe? This is not something ordinary!"
Cecilia continued to argue. "If you can afford it, then we should be able to buy clothes that cost around one or two million, right?"
"Don't you dare say we can't afford it!" Fiona replied, At the very least, Jack is a veteran who served the country for five years so of course, he came back with some money. Maybe you don't know this, but those who serve for a year or two will get 100 or 200 thousand dollars in compensation. Since Jack had been gone for five years and was getting good service, it was fine for the government to compensate him with around a million dollars!"
Jack was embarrassed. Thankfully she did not withdraw any more money today, otherwise, her mother-in-law would have placed it on a pedestal as high as the sky. If he knew that his card could give him 100 billion dollars through password-free transactions, he might be shocked to death.
"He achieved meritorious service?" Cecilia furrowed her brows and started to trust Fiona. After all, he did hear that the veterans who returned in the last two days came home with money. Some of those who achieved good service, even the small ones, were awarded about a million dollars. That's possible.
"Of course!" Fiona immediately replied but was a bit hesitant about it. Jack did not admit it. However, for the sake of his reputation, he admitted it on behalf of Jack.
"really? Jack, what meritorious merit have you achieved?" Old Master Taylor seemed interested in the conversation. He squinted and looked at Jack.
Everyone turned their attention to Jack at this moment. They wanted to know what meritorious merit he had achieved.
"Eh, I've achieved too much to remember. If I want to track him down, there should be at least one or two thousand awards!" Jack replied after thinking about it for a while.
The crowd was ashamed of him. This kid is clearly lying. Is it that easy to achieve a meritorious service? Other veterans would usually feel extremely proud to achieve one, while this brat bragged about one or two thousand awards as if it were as easy as cutting fruits and vegetables!
Chapter 50
Old Master Taylor's expression darkened as well. He said, "Jack, do you think I'm joking with you?"
"Jack, aren't you too childish to do this? How dare you not answer honestly the question of the old master!"
"That's right, where is your respect for the old master? Don't you remember that if it wasn't for the old master lending you a million dollars back then, your mother would have been dead by now!"
Some members of the Taylor family began to speak angrily to Jack.
"Old Master, I'm telling you the truth. Huh, if you don't believe me, forget it!" Jack shrugged his shoulders. He did not want to explain further.
If it wasn't for the worry that Selena might be bullied today, she wouldn't even have come here.
"Wait, who's this girl?" Cecilia initially wants to cause trouble for Selena but does not expect Jack to have achieved meritorious service. Her clothes were probably genuine so Cecilia had no choice but to give up. Soon after, he realized that a stranger's face was in the room.
"Oh, Cecilia, let me introduce you to everyone. This is my boyfriend, Xena Jackson. We've been dating long enough and are getting married soon!"
"Since grandfather invited everyone here, I think I should bring him here and introduce him to everyone!"
Ben smiled shyly and looked like a slave.
"Ben, you're not good, are you? It's lunch for Taylor's family and you have an outsider here, this..."
"At least Jack has a marriage certificate, the person you brought here." said Cecilia cynically while feeling excited inwardly.
"Xena's not an outsider. He already called me mother so he will definitely marry my Ben soon!" Fiona interrupts the conversation after seeing that Cecilia is bullying Xena.
"Stop, some people have never been to a place like this so isn't it normal to want to experience it?" Another woman sneered at the side.
"Yes, it's okay for us, but for some people, bringing her boyfriend here is a feat!" Cecilia said as she looked towards Ben.
Ben's expression darkened but he didn't know how to defend himself. He glared at Jack who was standing next to him. That's the fault of this bastard. If not for her making her sister pregnant, would she be humiliated like this today? If it wasn't for Jack, his family would be living luxuriously today. Who knows, his sister might be the heir to the family. At that moment, who would dare to humiliate him like this?
"Xena, you have to think about this carefully. Even though Ben is a Taylor, you should know where he stands because he lives in a place like that!"
"You are beautiful so it would be a waste to marry her. You will probably be poor for the rest of your life!"
After thinking about it, Cecilia went to make trouble again.
Xena smiled shyly and replied, "Sister, you are too kind. Ben was nice to me and I liked him for who he was. I haven't thought of anything else as long as I'm happy, I'm good!"
"Cecilia, are you too free? What is our business with you? You're just jealous because you don't have a boyfriend, right?" Ben couldn't take it anymore. He finally refuted Cecilia.
"What are you talking about? I don't need to be jealous. It's not that I don't have a boyfriend, it's just that I haven't found anyone who meets my standards. If I wanted to have one, I would definitely find a man who was rich, strong, and capable of protecting me. As for people like you, ck, anyone who is not an idiot would not want you!" Cecilia said cynically while crossing her arms in front of her chest.
"Grandfather, is there anything worth celebrating today?"
