The Unexpected Marriage novel Chapter 26

She put her arm around her daughter's shoulder and said, "Anna said she would take you to see Joan tomorrow. The woman protected by Darren! If you want to deprive my precious daughter of her position just by a press conference, no way! "

That woman, no matter in appearance or figure, couldn't compete with her. She, Zoey Su, was actually not determined to marry him.

But she wouldn't allow anyone else to take her down. Only she could have choice to break up with men. She felt very upset when she was kicked away by Darren who had been with her since she was a little girl.

With a hint of understanding in her eyes, she said, "Don't worry, mom. I'm Zoey. Last time Darren protected her. And this time, I'll let her know what kind of price she has to pay for the woman who dares to take something from me."

Mrs. Su took out a box of cigarette from the coffee table, lit it and blew a big smoke ring. "Moreover, we have everything in control. Mrs. Lu has watched you grow up, and she will help you. She will not admit any woman other than you."

The villa of the Su family was the most lively every night. When her friends arrived, the chess and card room on the second floor was almost noisy. Sometimes, Zoey would go to have a look, but today, she went to her room with her cat.

"Honey, it's up to you, how much the stock of Ye family will surge?"

Family background meant big benefits to each other. As an experienced businessman, Darren was clear about that. Since Zoey had booked tomorrow's date with Anna through a phone call, she wanted to know what kind of woman Joan is.

All of a sudden, Darren became very busy with his work and had little time to drive Joan home. As his nominal girlfriend, she had no right to make any unreasonable requests.

She was optimistic. The bus which cost one and the luxury car were just ways of transportation for her. She just didn't know if it was her illusion. She felt as if someone was following her. She had turn her head back many times on the way, but nobody was there.

"Have I watched too many legal programs recently? Am I suffering from persecutory delusion?" She shook her head and mocked herself for being so pathetic. She was not rich or powerful, no one would bother to follow her.

Not far away, the girl lowered her peaked cap and said, "Madam, I followed her to where she lives. Wait for me to send the location to you."

The two people sitting opposite behind the window in the Bingo Coffee stirred the coffee with a spoon. The older woman listened to the phone, and her lips gradually rose from the ordinary depression.

"Well done. Check your bank account number in half an hour."

After the phone was hung up, the young woman chuckled, "Auntie, you are really great at this!"

In everyone's expectation, Darren Lu got the bidding proposal for the land that was newly approved. And he even wanted to tell Joan the news as soon as possible. She had been sitting on some trivial work, and even more work had nothing to do with the design, so she didn't have the chance to display her talent.

"Where are you?" He answered the phone.

"At home." She answered honestly.

"Don't eat tonight. I'll take you out for dinner."

As soon as he had given his order, a new phone call came in. Before Joan could respond, he said, "stay at home and think about what you want to eat."

"But I have already... Hello... " The phone was cut off before she could finish her words.

"What? Are you inviting me to a meal or taking me to the execution ground? ', she complained with her mouth pouted.

She had no choice but to look at the peeled potatoes in her hand. After she washed her hands, she put all the food into the fridge and took out the phone to check the nearest restaurant!

She didn't plan to save money for him.

It seemed that he arrived earlier than he had said. Suddenly, the doorbell rang. "Coming, what's the haste?"

The moment the door was opened, it was not Darren who was standing there. It was Zoey Su and the noble lady with a cold face. She met her when she went to the banquet. She is Darren's mother.

"Auntie."

Anna waved her hand to stop her and put on an awkward look, "No, don't call me aunt. My last name is An. I'm Darren's mother. You'd better call me Mrs. An."

"Okay, Mrs. An. And this is... Miss Su? "

Zoey raised her chin and looked at people with her nostrils. In that press conference, she gave her a shameful nickname "Cow".

She still remembered that day when she finished this sentence, everyone in the room looked at the joke and giggled, which made her hate this woman more.

Anna walked into the room and said, "It's a nice house with good location and spacious space. I don't think a woman like you, who just came out of the prison and was driven out of the house by her husband, is qualified to own a house here."

"Did Darren give it to you?" Disdain was written all over her face. Was this how the famous Gu family taught their daughter to be shameless?
