Hearing those words from the person she loved most must have been unbearable. I could empathize with that pain all too well. 

Anna must have felt heartbroken now no matter what her intentions were in getting close to Luke. 

After all, the time they spent together over the years was real and their love had been genuine. 

She was carrying Luke’s child, yet the child’s father was treating her with such cold indifference. How could Anna not feel devastated? 

Carter’s voice was void of emotion as he declared, “Since that’s the case, this matter is settled.” 

Kate’s face was filled with indignation. “Anna and Mr. Ashley have no emotional foundation! Besides… her health is not good. I won’t agree with this marriage!” 

She held back the fact that Anna was pregnant, knowing it would only make the situation more humiliating. 

Especially now that Luke and Alisa’s marriage was already 

disastrous.

Melissa, having had some dealings with Kate before, spoke gently as one woman to another. “Kate, this is just a temporary solution. You know how important reputation is for families like ours. If they were already a couple, their behavior last night could be explained away. This marriage is just to quiet the rumors. Once the gossip dies down, they can divorce.” 

“Marriage and divorce aren’t trivial matters!” Kate snapped. “Do you even care about Anna’s reputation? Once she’s divorced, she’ll be labeled as a divorcee. How will she ever find another husband?” 

Melissa muttered under her breath, “It’s not like she’ll find one now. After what happened last night, who would dare marry her? We had no choice but to step in- 

“What did you just say?” Kate’s anger flared. 

Although Anna’s actions were under the influence of drugs, no one else would see it that way. Her reputation was already ruined. 

Melissa wasn’t wrong, but no one wanted to admit it. 

“Enough,” Anthony interjected. “Even if it’s just for reputation, the Hudsons won’t treat her unfairly. We’ll send her the betrothal gift from our side. If you have any conditions, feel free to state them.” 

This was music to Josh’s ears. As a man driven by profit he immediately saw the value in this arrangement. Anna’s reputation was beyond repair within their social circle. The wealthy families within it would never consider marrying her after witnessing her bold behavior tonight. 

Marrying into the Hudsons might still allow her to gain some benefits for the family. 

“Then we’ll follow local customs and host a proper wedding. Who knows, maybe the two kids will actually grow to love each other,” Josh said.

His words drew side–eyes from those around him. 

“Fine. Name your terms 

The Sanders and Hudson families moved to negotiate Sadie, who had come with Ashley, now found herself like an outsider. 

She dragged Ashley outside to demand answers. Meanwhile, I glanced at Bill. Normally, he doted on Sadie more than anyone. Yet he wasn’t following her out–h attention was fixated on my mom. 

Mom wasn’t herself today either.. 

She was naturally a classic beauty, with elegant features that seemed untouched by time. Even as the ages, she looks no older than her early 30s, exuding a gentle and charming demeanor. 

Today, however, she seemed even younger, like a flower in full bloom, vibrant and refreshed. 

A thought–crossed my mind. 

Knowing Bill, he’s usually kept busy by his mistresses to stay at their places. It had been a long time since he and my mom had even shared the same room. I wondered if they had been intimate last night 

My mom is a traditional woman, bound by the constraints of a marriage rooted in mutual benefit. I don’t want her to be too deeply entangled with Bill. 

Sometimes, letting go might be the better choice. 

Yet, as their daughter, I dare not interfere lightly with their relationship. 

Feeling parched, I went to grab some fruit. 

As I moved away. I spotted Anna pestering Luke nearby. 

Luke’s expression was cold as he towered over Anna. His gaze was devoid of the affection he once held for 

her. 

I couldn’t help but sigh at the irony. Things had been so different just two months ago. 

Before our wedding, Luke had barely paid me any attention, spending all his time with Anna instead. 

Even as our marriage loomed, he saw the ceremony as a form of compensation, believing I had trapped him with a sense of responsibility. 

He wanted one last fling before settling down. 

But in two short months, I had died, his love for Anna had crumbled, and now he was set to marry someone else. 

It was funny how things had turned out. 

His current disdain for Anna was the same expression he once reserved for me. 

“Luke, are you really going to marry that woman?” Anna asked, her voice trembling.

“Yes, Luke replied without hesitation. “If not her, it would’ve been someone else. It was never going to be you, Anna Let go of this fantasy” 

Luke, if you don’t want me, then what ab the baby- 

alem 

Luke cut her off sharply “Youre marrying into the Hudion family, and I’m marrying, Alisa. Don’t bring this up again. If you want to keep the baby, I won’t stop you. If you want an abortion. I’ll support it. Either way, we’re done” 

“Luke, when did you become like this? Anna’s voice broke.
