Chapter 357

Cecelia understood what he meant, quickly continued the topic, and

said to Luther, "Originally the two families did not take very seriously.

Later, we lost Charlotte in an accident and it was put off for many years,

and after all the hardships, we finally found her back. So I wouldn't

have forced her into marriage. But I never thought that Charlotte and

you were actually destined for each other. She once saved your life and

was pregnant with your child. The most important thing is that she has

a deep love for you, and as a parent, I naturally want to make the

marriage happen as soon as possible."

Cecelia finished and gave Charlotte a worried look. She knew that

Charlotte's mood, lately, was getting out of whack. Helpless, she could

only selfishly consider the benefits of her own child, after all, she owed

Charlotte too much.

She then thought of Joyce, what a smart girl! She knew that she was

Charlotte's mother and she still saved her. She was such a decent and

kind girl and she felt guilty and helpless at heart.

“Yes, Charlotte is well-behaved, polite and cultured girl, and I like her

very much. I can't wait for her to become my daughter-in-law.”

Jacqueline helped in the side.

At that, Charlotte bowed her head shyly.

"Since everyone is here today, let's simply discuss the details of the

marriage." Jacqueline nudged Luther secretly, hoping that Luther would

hurry to speak up and accept it.

But Luther did not even move and looked gloomy and silent.

Jacqueline advised from the side, “Luther, Shelly has told me in detail

about what those people said on the forums. Since your fake marriage

with Joyce has been exposed, the group's image has definitely been

affected, but we don't have to worry too much, why don't we take the

opportunity to announce to the media, admit the fake marriage, and

then announce the engagement with the Heath family. In this way, it is

logical and they won't say a word about our group anymore. With the

marriage with the Heath family, the negative impact of the fake

marriage could also be eliminated. After the marriage, we will form a

much bigger alliance which can also bring the group to a higher level,

and the share price will also go up, won't it be the best of both worlds."

"Huh." Luther suddenly sneered.

The atmosphere in the box was awkward and stiff right from the

beginning, and his sudden cold laugh almost froze the entire room.

He swept his harsh gaze at Jacqueline, "You know quite a lot, about the

forums, you and Shelly are involved in it? Stopping Joyce from entering

the board, you knew it would have a huge impact on my voting and

decision-making power, at this time, how could you not consider the

group's interest and share price?"

"How? How could I ..." Jacqueline's face went white for a while.

She was embarrassed to be exposed by Luther on the spot. Certainly

he didn't need to say all those words in front of the Heath family, right?

Indeed, the forum thing did have exposed Joyce and Luther's fake

marriage, Shelly was involved and she had agreed to it.

She did know that the other branch of the Warner family was watching

from overseas and that once Joyce was not on the board, the lack of

the 10% voting right would put more pressure on Luther later.

But she just could not bear Joyce any longer, and she could not let

Joyce have it.

Luther shook his head, and suddenly remembered how his

grandmother had always disliked his mother for her shortsightedness.

Well, his grandmother was just correct about her.

"What's the point of bringing it up today? It's all in the past! Today we

are here to discuss the marriage of the Warner family and the Heath

family.”

Jacqueline digressed and reminded Luther.

“I'm sorry. I can't have this marriage.”

Luther gave his conclusion without hesitation.

"So, there is no need to talk.”
