< Sweet Submission: Reclaiming Her Love Chapter 113 Their Scheme “There’s no need for you to get upset, sweetheart. You shouldn’t be wearing a scowl on your face knowing that tomorrow is your big day,” Jeremy said with a smile on his face as he gently stroked Amanda’s back.

Pouting, Amanda asked nervously, “But what if Elliot changes his mind and calls off the wedding tomorrow?

What will I do? What am I supposed to say?”

“These are questions that you don’t need to worry about, Amanda. Once Elliot arrives, he won’t be able to leave until both of you are married,” Jeremy said firmly.

Understanding the hidden meaning behind Jeremy’s words, Amanda nodded and finally smiled softly.

“In that case, I better have someone deliver the custom suit to Elliot,” she said. With that, she closed the box, summoned one of the maids, and said, “Get this to Lark Villa and ensure that you deliver it directly to Elliot. Do you understand?”

The maid nodded and replied courtly, “Yes, ma’am.”

“That’s exactly the spirit I want to see in you. Tomorrow, you’ll become the most beautiful bride to have ever walked the surface of the earth. Daddy will stop at nothing to give you a wedding that will be talked about for centuries to come!” Jeremy said with a bright smile on his face.

Amanda smiled back and began to look forward to what was bound to be the best day of her life.

Meanwhile, at Andrews Mansion...

Looking quite relieved after finishing a phone call, Owen turned to face Evan and said, “Evan, everything has been clarified with your grandfather.”

Hearing this, Evan nodded slightly and smiled.

At the same time, Conner was pacing back and forth in his room, picking up his phone and putting it back down several times.

One glance at him, and it was clear to see that he was quite disturbed.

Unable to stand it anymore, he stormed out and confronted Gavin, “Dad, the relationship between you and Elliot is already on shaky ground due to what happened last time! Shouldn’t you be afraid that he’ll take you as an enemy this time?”

Why Gavin, who had always been an adherent supporter of Elliot, was now siding with Owen and Owen’s illegitimate son was nothing short of baffling to Conner.

He didn’t admire or like Evan in the slightest.

One look at Evan, and one would know that he was an individual who couldn’t be trusted. His support for the upcoming marriage between Amanda and Elliot couldn’t be genuine since he knew very well that the marriage would only solidify Elliot’s position.

Surely, there was some sort of conspiracy underneath all of this.

Chapter 113 Their Scheme “Conner, you ought to be well aware that Elliot’s marriage to Amanda would significantly boost his career. You can’t surely expect me not to allow this marriage to happen? It would be a huge loss if it doesn’t work out,” Gavin replied after a bout of cough.

“Dad, but I’m very sure that you are aware that Owen and his illegitimate son are anything but kind or trustworthy. Most likely, they would use this to seize control of our family!” Conner pointed out anxiously.

With a shrug, Gavin replied calmly, “I place my trust in Elliot. If he gets easily outmaneuvered by Owen, then he isn’t worthy of holding the mantle as the head of the family.”

Hearing this, Conner remembered that the Andrews family wasn’t for those with weak hearts and without the capability to think fast. The survival rules of the family were nothing short of brutal and harsh.

True to the law of survival of the fittest, only the most capable one comes out on top.

Though Gavin was quite relaxed and easygoing, he was very firm in his decisions.

Swallowing hard, a chill ran down Conner’s spine and he muttered, “Dad...”

“Be on your best behavior during this time and ensure that you have no contact with Elliot. He is the most capable grandson that I have, and I trust him to manage just fine,” Gavin said firmly.

So much was Gavin’s trust in Elliot, that he had always believed that his grandson would be the one to lead the Andrews family to greatness.

With that, Conner’s phone and computer were confiscated, after which he was confined to his room with guards at the door to prevent him from escaping.

If only he had been able to figure out what Gavin’s plan was, then he would have contacted Elliot and informed him.

He now had no option but to sit, wait, and hope for whatever scheme had been arranged against Elliot to fail. Just as Elliot was about to leave, he met a woman at the door with a box in her hand.

Smiling courtly, she extended the box to him and said, “Mr. Andrews, Miss Willis instructed me to deliver this to you.”

Without even sparing the box a glance, Elliot said, “Take it inside.”

As he moved to leave, the woman quickly added, “Mr. Andrews, Miss Willis‘ birthday celebration shall kick off at ten o’clock prompt. It will be highly appreciated if you can be there on time.”

Hearing this, Elliot raised an eyebrow and asked coldly, “Are you dictating to me what I am to do?”

“What? No! I wouldn’t dare! I just... I meant... This is just a misunderstanding!” the woman quickly explained nervously.

With a scoff, Elliot went without saying anything else.
