Omnipotent Mrs. Finn novel Chapter 1

In the hospital, Ruby Harold was sitting on the bench in the hallway, looking at the two aggressive men in front of her, “ You want me to marry into the Finn family, and that’s fine. But you have to give back my mother’s possessions…”

“What?! Do you think you are eligible to pose a condition to me, Rube?” the woman interrupted her with a shrill voice.

Ruby turned to look at her stepmother, Susan Shaw, who had driven her mother to death, replaced her as Mrs.Harold. She sent her and her grandma abroad, and then left them without any further support.

After more than ten years since she was sent abroad, her stepmother came to her abruptly and urged her to go back and marry into the Finn family.

Ruby tried her utmost to restrain the hatred to her as she pushed her glasses up, “Now it’s you asking for a favor. If you think it is unacceptable, just go away.”

Susan was annoyed, “It’s your honor to marry into such a noble family! Besides, the engagement was made by your dead mother at the very beginning!”

“Well…” Ruby nodded while asked rhetorically, “But does the engagement still be recognized by the Finn family?”

Her question embarrassed the woman, who didn’t answer but turned to look at a middle aged man, Spencer.

“Ruby, they always keep their promise! How could they reject you after making the engagement?” Spencer broke the silence in an abnormal tone of tender.

“Dad, I hear that Levi has to live in a wheelchair for the rest of his life due to his leg problems. Besides, it’s almost impossible for him to be the heir of his family,” she interrupted him.

Then, she glanced at them and said aggrievedly, “I know the Finn family doesn’t want to see Levi dies without issue, so they offer generous rewards to the woman who can give birth to his heir.”

“I guess my dear stepmother must be so eager to build a relationship with the Finn family but unwilling to let my little sister Rita marry a cripple, so you come to find me as the alternative.”

Spencer turned scarlet from embarrassment but still trying to excuse it, “Your mother and Hattie were good friends back in the day!”
