The Divorced Heiress Revenge (Bella Thompson) novel Chapter 1195

“Why should I be angry? What they’re doing is exactly what I wanted them to do.”

After some covert maneuvering by Astrid, Lance successfully met with the fortune teller, Mrs. Lee.

Under Astrid’s instructions, Mrs. Lee delivered a well-crafted message to Lance, which seemed plausible and convincing. It left Lance with no choice but to believe it.

In truth, Lance also harbored hopes of arranging a marriage between Charles and the Thompsons. After all, Charles was his favorite son, and any advantages resulting from this alliance would undoubtedly be given to him first.

Despite Christopher’s efforts to please him and everything proceeding smoothly, their bond had a gap of fifteen years. Thus, Christopher could not replace Charles’ position in his heart.

However, Wyatt was a proud man. Even if Amelia wasn’t his favorite, how could he possibly let his beautiful and talented daughter marry the crippled Charles?

Thus, Lance could only set this matter aside for the time being. He prepared to seize a suitable opportunity and muster up his courage to plead with Wyatt once more.

However, the hope for success seemed faint.
