Chapter 81 A Dispute
Cherry didn’t know that her father and Clare had settled her marriage during a meal.
At that moment, she was happily discussing with Jane what clothes to wear at the Green family’s banquet in a few days.
Cynthia had made a stunning appearance last time at Buck’s birthday party, which made Cherry jealous for a long time, and she was very unwilling. She had to customize a dress to compare with that b*tch Cynthia at this banquet.
Jane couldn’t smile after looking at the expensive dresses in the brochure.
Seeing Cherry’s excited expression, she had to say, “It is just a reception banquet. You don’t have to customize such an expensive dress.”
“Cynthia’s dress was tens of millions, but these are only a little over a million. I can’t be overwhelmed by Cynthia at the banquet, otherwise people will say that I can’t even compare with an illegitimate daughter.”
Cherry shook Jane’s arm and acted like a baby in a low voice. Jane thought that made sense, so she finally
agreed.
Beck came back smelling of alcohol while they were discussing. He looked at them, especially Cherry, with
slight guilt in his eyes.
Cherry excitedly raised the brochure and ran towards him. “Dad, I want to customize this dress for a banquet
in a few days.”
Beck didn’t even look at the price, and nodded. “Okay, whatever you want.”
Then he handed her his secondary card directly.
Cherry happily took it, thinking about what to buy the next day.
Jane thought Beck looked the wrong way. She felt that he was hiding something from her. Beck seemed to
overindulge to Cherry as if he was trying to make up for something.
At night, Jane was about to fall asleep when suddenly Beck beside her said something.
“Clare and I have decided to let Cherry and Ivan get engaged.”
After hearing that, Jane sat up instantly, without any sleepiness. She looked at Beck in disbelief. “What are you talking about? Let Cherry marry Ivan Smith! Impossible. I will never agree.”
“I don’t care if you agree or not. I’m informing you.” Beck was a little impatient when she firmly rejected him.
Jane directly picked him up, gritted her teeth, and looked at him. “Beck Miller, are you crazy? You don’t know what Ivan Smith likes? Cherry is our only daughter. How could you let her jump into this pit of fire!”
She looked crazy, with her hair disheveled. And she looked old and hideous because she had taken off her makeup.
Beck shook her hand away forcefully, frowning. “No matter how b*stard he is, he is Clare’s son, and can bring
us a lot of benefits. When they get married, if we have difficulties, Clare will help us, and…”
He hesitated for a moment but still said truthfully. “Clare promised that when Cherry gave birth to children, we can adopt one of them, and we will have a successor.”
After hearing that, Jane was stunned. “You still mind me not having a son for you!”
“What nonsense are you talking about!” Beck was caught and became a little annoyed. “When did I say that?”
Jane looked excited, with tears in her eyes. “Cherry is my only daughter. If you value her, you won’t think about adopting her baby. You can leave the Miller family to her!”
Beck sneered coldly. “You know Cherry better than I do. Could she support our family? Don’t make any jokes.
This matter has already been settled. There’s no negotiation. Find some time to tell her to get ready. They will get engaged after Ivan is released from prison.”
After finishing speaking, he laid down regardless of Jane’s reaction.
Looking his back, Jane grabbed the bed sheet fiercely and thought, “D*mned Beck. He asked Cynthia to get
married instead of Cherry. I thought it was because he was feeling sorry for Cherry, and such a thing would
not happen to Cherry.”
“But now, for the sake of profit and his so–called adoptive grandson, he made Cherry marry Ivan, a
good–for–nothing.”
“Beck Miller is a hypocrite. As long as he could get benefits, he would use his wife and daughter.”
“I have to think of a way to stop Cherry from marrying Ivan.”
Beck was already fast asleep. Jane was lying on the bed, staring at the ceiling all night with her eyes open.
Her eyes became more and more fierce.
A few days later, Lloyd rushed to Alston’s office after reading a message.
