She just wanted her Uncle Dillon to teach Adina a lesson. Was it that difficult?
âUncle Dillon, do you know that this womanâs really vicious? Sheâs extremely arrogant because of her beauty. She even insulted us by calling me ugly and the Jones family rude.â âIs that true?â Dillonâs expression darkened. âHow dare she torment the Jones family. Is she trying to disrespect us?â
âHave you heard of the most beautiful woman in Sea City, Uncle Dillon? Sheâs gorgeous, but she shouldnât insult us like this.â Jasmine faked her tears while she took out her phone and tapped on a photo. âLook, she seems so sycophantic. My boyfriendâs attracted to her because she used many tricks to seduce him. I really love my boyfriend. Uncle Dillon, you have to avenge me!â
She kept talking but did not receive any reply.
When she turned around, she saw Dillon staring at her phone screen. He even reached out to grab her phone. Jasmine was confused, so she frowned and asked, âUncle Dillon, whatâs wrong?â Dillon barely gulped before he slowly asked, âWho did you say the girl was?â âSheâs the most beautiful woman in Sea City, and she shows up in the local headlines from time to time. She uses her beauty to be with different men. I even heard that she has two illegitimate kids.â âShut up!â
Dillon yelled at Jasmine coldly, scaring her.
As far as she knew, her Uncle Dillon was very gentle. No matter what happened, he would never lose his temper. It was his first time speaking to her in such a stern tone. Her eyes turned red as she bit her bottom lip and asked, âUncle Dillon, did I say something wrong?â
âYouâre a lady, but youâre insulting another girl behind her back. Perhaps this girl was right. The Jones family didnât raise you well.â Jasmine instantly widened her eyes. âUncle Dillon, youâre actually speaking up for a b*tch who bullied me? She stole my boyfriend. Why canât I criticize her?â âI donât want to hear the word âb*tchâ again.â Dillon gave her a look before he threw the phone over at her and walked away in a hurry.
Jasmine held her phone and stomped her foot in anger.
Uncle Dillon had wanted to help vent her anger, but why did he completely change his mind after he saw Adinaâs picture?
Mrs. Winters took the children to the ward and visited Duke.
She had some booklets in her hand, which she then placed in front of Adina. She smiled and said, âThis is the wedding set up, this is the style of the wedding dress, this is the second style for the dress, this is the jewelry that youâll wear on your engagement day, and this is the setting for the dessert table.
Just pick your favorite and let me know. Iâll get them to arrange it.â
When Adina looked at the one dozen booklets, she felt restless.
They were just getting engaged. Were they not making too much of a fuss? âMom, I discussed it with Addy,â Duke said. âA simple engagement party would be great. Weâll have a grand wedding later.â Mrs.
Winters had a look of disapproval. âNo way. The Winters family hasnât had a party in twenty years. We have to make it a grand one this time. We need to let everyone in Sea City know about our familyâs great news!â Just as Duke was about to continue convincing Mrs. Winters, Adina suddenly pulled his arm. She passed him her phone, narrowed her eyes, and said, âOur engagement is on the headlines in Sea City.â Mrs. Winters was stunned, and she immediately explained, âI just told a few close friends about the engagement. They wouldnât expose it to the media.â Adina and Duke stared at each other.
They had also told a few relatives and friends, but those people wouldnât say anything to the media.
So, who had exposed their engagement?
