Chapter 419 - 418 Another Good Show, Merciless Leads to One’s Own Ruin (2nd Update)
The New Year was approaching, and many people had already gone on leave. Everyone was idle already, and not many knew about Silas Jones’s intention to marry his daughter to Mr. Drake – a matter that was not honorable to begin with, so the Jones Family would obviously not publicize it everywhere.
However, Michale Shaw, from who knows where, got hold of the news and spread it, and now half of the Capital City was aware of it.
Everyone sighed and felt sorry, thinking how pitiable Cressida Jones was.
And this news, naturally, also reached the Jeans Family.
Beckett Jeans had been trying to win back Cressida and had even talked to Marigold about it, asking her to abort the child.
If it weren’t for the pregnancy, she would have been detained by now; the baby was her amulet. Marigold would not possibly get rid of it.
The two families had an unhappy quarrel about this, and just when they had not yet settled this side of the issue, Cressida Jones was about to attend a matchmaking event, which naturally made Beckett explode with anger.
"Beckett, is it possible that my sister went to the matchmaking event voluntarily?" Marigold asked with a smile.
"Nonsense, what does she see in that old man!"
"Who knows, maybe she has a special fetish, and just likes old men."
"Shut up!"
