"If you think you can do it, put yourself out there and make more money. I'm the homemaker. If it weren't for me, can you even single-handedly support this big family?" Adeline Simpson, who had just returned home, overheard a shrill voice coming from her house. Her brows furrowed, and she stopped at the doorway. She could feel the tension in her house even before stepping in. Hearing that the sound of footsteps stopped abruptly, a toadying middle-aged man's voice rose, "Helen, Adeline will be back soon. Lower your voice!" "So? You have the guts to do it but not the backbone to admit it? Ronald, if it weren't for your misjudgment, the company wouldn't have lost three million dollars. You should think about how you are going to make up for this loss!" "Helen..." "Dad!" Adeline called out. She waited until the voices in the house stopped before she walked in. She saw her father, Ronald Simpson, sitting on the couch with a frown on his face. "Adeline, y

Adeline's face changed. She did hear about this piece of gossip of the Lockwood family. Rumor had it that Christiano Lockwood, the oldest son of the Lockwood family, had a car accident two years ago. Unfortunately, he ended up in a vegetative state, and he was abandoned by his then-fiancée. Vallerie Jules, Christiano's grandmother, heard from somewhere that if a girl born in July married Christiano, it would bring him luck and wake him up from the coma. Therefore, she started sourcing a girl in Caulford City that was suitable to be Christiano's spouse. Even though Adeline knew that she wouldn't be selected, she still felt a little anxious. After all, marrying someone in a vegetative state was social suicide. Plus, she already had someone she liked. Noticing how pale Adeline's face was, Helen felt the sweet taste of revenge. She took Zoey's hand and headed upstairs. Ronald came back to his senses. He looked at Adeline and said, "Adeline, there are so

"Yes, I am. And you are?" Adeline asked, a little suspicious of the men. "I am Hanson Zachary, the Lockwoods' family lawyer. On behalf of the Lockwood family, I've come to talk to Mr. Ronald about the three-million-dollar debt that the Simpson Group owed the Lockwood family. I'm not sure if Miss Simpson can make decisions and talk through it with me." Adeline looked at Hanson with hesitation, then she heard Helen's high-pitched voice coming from upstairs, "What's the matter? Are you going to make decisions for the Simpson family when your father isn't around?" Hanson turned around and saw Helen. He slightly nodded as a greeting. "Mrs. Simpson, right? I am Hanson Zachary, the Lockwoods' family lawyer. I wonder if Mrs. Simpson could call Mr. Ronald to come home so that we can talk over the debt?" Walking down the stairs, Helen smiled charmingly at Hanson and answered, "I have no control over the company's matters, but I can certainly call him home!" Helen took her

"Who else would drive me insane like that if it weren't Adeline that wh*re!" Helen rolled her eyes and said. Noticing how dolled up Zoey was, she asked, "Zoey, you're dressed up! Where are you going?" Zoey smiled as if she was hiding a big surprise. Then she said in a low voice, "Mom, I'm going out to have dinner with Sebastian!" Helen's eyes lit up instantly. "Sebastian? Sebastian Lawson from the Lawson Group?" Zoey nodded, and she looked at Helen earnestly as she asked, "Mom, what do you think about him? Is he good enough for me?" Helen took Zoey's hands and patted them in excitement. Her eyes showed how overjoyed she was to hear the news. "Of course! Sebastian is the heir of the Lawson Group! Plus, the Lawson family is still quite a notable family in Caulford City. I'll be delighted if you marry him!" "Yeah. Although they are no match for the Lockwood family, the Lawsons are still not bad," Both Helen and Zoey had the same train of thought. Looking into

Staggering out of the hotel, Adeline fell to the ground at the entrance. She lifted her head to see a few couples amongst the passersby. They were holding hands, whispering sweet nothings to each other. Seeing such a scene, Adeline was in a mess. Sebastian was her boyfriend. They had been dating in secret for almost two years. Their second anniversary would be in only another month. But Adeline didn't understand how Sebastian got involved with Zoey. "What should I do?" Adeline cried. She buried her head in her arms as tears welled up in her eyes. Although she didn't like Zoey that much, Sebastian was her boyfriend, and he was one of the influential figures in Caulford City. If she had gone up and confronted him, their relationship would be over. Plus, she couldn't do such a thing. Meanwhile, a black limousine was parked on the opposite road. No one could see into the car through the tinted window, but a low voice could be heard through the lowered car wind

"It's your wedding with Christiano," Vallerie answered. Seeing how confused Adeline was, she explained, "As you probably know, I only have a grandson. His name is Christiano, and he got into a car accident two years ago. Now, he's in a vegetative state. But don't you worry, he'll definitely recover when you marry him!" Adeline frowned at what Vallerie said, "But, I—" Adeline swallowed her direct disagreement. Instead, she put it in another way, "It's a little sudden. I haven't really given a thought about it yet." Helen, who was sitting on the other side, chuckled and said, "Adeline, the Lockwood family is well-respected. Plus, Madam Vallerie has come to propose this marriage arrangement in person. You should see it as a blessing to be able to marry Mr. Lockwood." Blessing? Adeline snorted. Her gaze fell on Helen, who was smiling. At that moment, she wanted to stand up and question Helen that if she thought that it was a blessing, why didn't she let Zoey marry C

With a faint smile, Adeline nodded her head. She took Ronald's hand in hers, and soothed, "Don't worry, Dad. I know." "Adeline, I owe you and your mom too much." "Dad, don't you say that. I-I don't even have a boyfriend anyway. And eventually, I'll need to get married. Living with someone who is in a vegetative state is better than someone with bad intentions." Unsure of what Adeline was implying, Ronald nodded his head heavily. "Since you're getting married, you can consider quitting school. There's no need for you to continue your studies." When she heard what Ronald said, Adeline immediately voiced out, "Dad, I don't want to stop studying! I want to continue." Ronald shrugged powerlessly. He looked spiritless and said weakly, "It's not that I'm stopping you from learning. The Lockwood family expects the girl that marries Mr. Lockwood to keep a low profile." "Dad, don't worry. I'll talk to the Lockwood family about this. It's late now. You should r

"I was reading Jane Austen's 'Pride and Prejudice' last night and got carried away. That's why I overslept. I'm sorry that you had to see me like this," Adeline explained. Hearing that, Martha looked at Adeline with admiration, and she said, "It's a classic. I heard from your father that you major in arts?" Adeline nodded, "Yes, I'm studying performance arts. I really hope that I can continue with my studies after I'm married. I know that this career will bring criticism, but I really do enjoy acting." As soon as Adeline finished speaking, Zoey's voice rang from the front door, "Mom, Dad! I'm home!" Noticing the strange look Martha gave, Helen immediately said, "That's my younger daughter, Zoey. Growing up, she's always this bubbly. Adeline is different. She's gentle and graceful!" "Cheerful girls are nice!" Martha said. Then, she stood up, and continued, "Since I've already brought the betrothal gift here, I'll leave for now. We'll send a car over to pic
