"Mr. Soo is handsome and deeply in love with Miss Turner. They are a perfect match. It seems that it won't be long before we can attend the wedding of Miss Turner and Mr. Soo," said one woman.
Selena glanced coldly at the two women but didn't say anything.
Patrick looked at Alfie and said coldly, "Selena doesn't like you."
Alfie's smile didn't waver, but his gaze dimmed slightly. He looked at Selena with a gentle tone and deep meaning, "Not all marriages stem from love. In the future... anything is possible, isn't it?"
Patrick's face darkened. "Although Selena is the daughter of the Turner family, the Turner family didn't raise her for over a decade before. She has no obligation, and the Turner family has no right to demand that she fulfill this marriage contract."
Nicholas' face suddenly darkened, and his voice became stern. "Patrick, the sincerity of my Soo family has already been laid out. The Turner family should not overstep your bounds!"
"The engagement between Selena and Alfie is clearly written in the marriage contract. The Turner family may have a thousand reasons, but it is not an excuse to break off the engagement!"
Nicholas looked at Patrick with a pained expression, "Alfie is your cousin. If he cannot marry Selena, he is doomed to a lonely life!"
"From both a moral and logical standpoint, you shouldn't stand in the way of your cousin's marriage!"
Nicholas' sudden outburst scared several young ladies, who turned pale on the spot.
Selena's gaze grew colder.
If it weren't for fear of tarnishing the Turner family's reputation, she would have stepped forward and taught this shameless old man a lesson!
Patrick's gaze also turned completely cold, "Don't forget, Nicholas, what the Soo family did to the Turner family in the past."
"The engagement between the Turner family and the Soo family was broken off at that moment!"
Nicholas' expression remained unchanged, and he said forcefully, "Regardless of what happened in the past, the engagement between Selena and Alfie is still valid."
"Unless my elder brother personally comes to break off the engagement, the engagement between the Soo family and the Turner family is legitimate."
"Patrick, Selena grew up as an orphan, so she is naturally a bit willful. As a descendant of the Turner family, how can you join her in such reckless behavior and tarnish the Turner family's reputation?"
"Nicholas is right," Vivian sneered, "Miss Turner may have had a valid excuse for dating other men before she knew about her engagement, but now that she's fully aware, continuing to be involved with other men is simply shameless!"
"Miss Shaw is right, Miss Turner. Even though you come from a privileged background, you cannot openly pursue two men at once."
"You may have been ignorant of your engagement for the past ten years while you were away, and it may have been forgivable to be involved with other men, but after today, you should know better."
"If Miss Turner knowingly has a fiancé and still insists on being with other men, even going so far as to persuade her indebted brother to help break the engagement, it makes one question the upbringing of the Turner family..."
"Miss Turner, you are engaged to another man, please spare Mr. Anderson! He is a distinguished man and should not have to bear the label of a third party because of you."
"Miss Turner, I heard that you grew up in a wealthy family, and you should know what it means when two great families unite in marriage. You cannot sacrifice the Turner family for your own love and disregard the future of Mr. Turner."
Many of the elite daughters of the wealthy families have long been envious and resentful of Selena, and now they have caught hold of something to accuse her of.
