You Are Mine (English)

Chapter 116: Chapter 116: The Yates Family

The Old Greg was suddenly unhappy, "You haven’t come to visit me for such a long time, and now you are rushing to leave. You are a bad girl, and you don’t care about me."

Edie quickly tried to persuade Old Greg, "Grandpa, how could I not care about you? You know how much I love you, but you also know my relationship with the family. You know how much they like to embarrass me. I only came today because it was your birthday. Don’t be angry with me. When I have finished filming, I will come and visit you."

It took a lot of persuading, and grandpa reluctantly agreed. She gave her grandpa a kiss and said goodbye, "I will see you soon; I love you." Edie and Stuart started to leave, and just as they entered the hallway, they met several people.

It was Mrs. Greg and Victoria, and they were talking to some guests that came to visit Old Greg. Mrs. Greg wore a luxurious dark purple coat. On her head was a pearl hairpin. She was wearing all kinds of jewelry and looked extremely luxurious.

Mrs. Greg was smiling at the guests, but when she turned towards Edie, her smile immediately disappeared. Victoria complained to the guests about Edie and said, "You also came to see Old Greg."

Edie smiled faintly with a nod, "Yes, we are just getting ready to leave." Victoria saw Stuart standing by Edie’s side, and she looked at him with envy in her eyes. She hated Edie and could not understand what he ever saw in her. She couldn’t help herself and said, "Why did you come back? You are not part of our family, and you have no right to be here."

The guests were shocked at what Victoria said; they knew Edie and couldn’t understand why Victoria would say such a thing. She was here only to wish her grandfather a happy birthday. They also knew how arrogant Victoria could be. freēwēbnovel.com

Victoria was trying to be on her best behavior and didn’t even realize what she said, but every time she saw Edie, it stirred up so many emotions in her. Mrs. Greg quickly sighed, "Victoria, what are you saying? Everyone is welcome here."

It was too late, when the guests heard what Victoria said their faces grew cold, "Mrs. Greg, it seems as though Miss Greg doesn’t want us in your home." The people that came to visit were celebrities from the city, and Mrs. Greg did not want to offend them.

She was so upset with her daughter for saying such a thing in the presence of her guests that she wanted her to leave, "Victoria, could you go and get Edie for me?" Victoria knew right away that she had upset the guests, so as it was very unusual for her not to talk back to her mother, she immediately said, "Yes, I will go get her. I hope she hasn’t left yet."

Victoria was so mad at her mother that she wanted to scream at her, but she bit her tongue because she didn’t want the guests to think that she was uncultivated. She then turned around to find Edie. Victoria met Edie at the door, and Stuart was in the car waiting for her. Victoria looked at Stuart and thought he was such a handsome man.

She couldn’t help herself, and she had to ask, "How did you hook up with him? Didn’t you have a five-year relationship with Donald Lynch? It wasn’t that long ago that you wanted to die and suddenly you are married. It doesn’t make any sense to me."

Hook up? Edie glared at Victoria, and she never had anything nice to say. "I am not you, and I did not hook up with anyone."

Victoria wanted to say something to her, but she looked at Stuart, and he gave her a death stare. She remembered the last time they spoke and how frightened she was; she knew that he meant what he said.

She stiffened and avoided his gaze. Then she swallowed to remove the lump in her throat. "Who is he? Why did you introduce him to my father and mother? I don’t understand why you haven’t told anyone? Is there something wrong with your marriage?"

After saying these few words, Stuart drove his car up to the house. The sound of the engine caught Victoria’s attention. Such a handsome man was driving a limited number of shining sports cars in the world. Her eyes revealed an infinite yearning, and she wanted Stuart for herself.

He lowered the window, and she could see his handsome face. He came from a noble family and had a mysterious temperament. Just one look at him, and her heart began to beat rapidly, and she could not help but hold her heart.

Edie said, "What is his identity? Is there anything that you can’t see? I don’t need to tell you or your parents because this is my husband, and it has nothing to do with you."

After Edie finished her words, she felt that the suffocation in her heart was now loosened and unpretentious. Everything was out in the open, and she had no need to hide from them anymore. She didn’t even look at Victoria’s expression on her face, and she went straight to the car.

Victoria stood in the window and waited for them to leave. She didn’t answer her, didn’t seem to hear her, and she seemed to be in some kind of trance. As though waking up from a dream, she angrily kicked the wall. She hit it so hard that her feet began to hurt and lowered her head, screaming, "It hurts..."

"Vitoria, why are you screaming? What did you do?" Mrs. Greg was angry, she sent her to get Edie, and now she was screaming out in pain. She stood there with her hands on her hips, glaring at her.

"Mom, my feet..." Victoria saw her mother and wanted some kind of reaction from her. She didn’t think that her mother would still be upset with her. Mrs. Greg didn’t believe that she actually hurt herself, "You just said in front of our guests that you were going to get Edie. Was that a lie? Where is she?"

She never expected her mother to reprimand her. She was a little annoyed, "You’re scolding me, why don’t you scold Edie. She is a shameless one. She got married without saying anything, and then she brought him to Grandpa’s birthday party."

"Got married? That man she was with her husband?" Mrs. Greg was confused, she never expected Edie to be married. "Yes, see, you didn’t even know either." Mrs. Greg quickly adjusted her expression and restored to her graceful and elegant demeanor.

She said coldly, "Does it have something to do with me? Is that why she got married? She was always a wild species, and maybe we shouldn’t tell anyone? Even if she wanted to tell me I wouldn’t have taken the time to listen."

She looked up and saw the expression of Victoria’s disapproval. Mrs. Greg hated Edie and said, "You spend less time worrying about Edie and what she is doing. Don’t mess around with her. Don’t forget that you have a marriage contract with the Yates family. If you mess this up, your father and I will never forgive you."

The Yates family. Again, it is the Yates family. Victoria hated the thought of an arranged marriage, especially when she saw Edie’s husband. He was so extraordinary, how can she be willing to marry a night heir that she had never seen before?

But she didn’t want to talk about it, she lowered her head and said, "Yes, Mom, I know. You and Dad keep reminding me." It was as though her life flashed before her eyes. So far, she has had nothing but horrible experiences, and Edie could not have a good one.
