Chapter 234
“Do your best today, my good brother–in–law!”
Beatrix knew what Claudette was plotting, of course. She hastily walked over
to them and snatched Emmanuel’s attention away.
When everyone heard her referring to Emmanuel as her brother–in–law, they
were shocked.
Elizabeth was surprised, too, as she said, “He’s your brother–in–law, Beatrix?”
Emmanuel hastily explained, “No, it’s a misunderstanding. We’re bros, and she
thinks it’s funny to call me her brother–in–law. I’m not married to her sister!”
Beatrix smiled as she remained silent. Mackenzie is right–this guy is a fool! If
he was not my brother–in–law, I wouldn’t have called him as such now, would

Initially, he was aiming for Beatrix, but the latter always rejected him. Now
that he saw Claudette exuding a more feminine aura while wearing slightly
revealing clothes, he felt that Claudette should be easier to get than Beatrix.
Hence, he decided to try his luck.
Not only that, Jonathan always had this narcissistic view that he looked good,
and he even secretly wondered if Claudette would want to do it with him.
At the thought of sharing a bed with this woman who had a back as white as
“Sorry, but I’m not interested in teaming up with you guys.”
The looks and laughter coming from all sides made him want to disappear
from the face of the earth.
Oh, well. Life is always fair. I’m sure this is a signal from the gods that she’s not
the one for me. With that thought in mind, Jonathan turned around and
